Nancy Wynne Hears Neivs of the Comings and Goings
of Philadelphia Girls in Europe She Tells of a
Party at Mrs. Leivis Levick' s Home
T IIKAtt tliat Miss Helen KnlBht. yho,
after working for nine months near
the front "over there" In n foyer flu
noldnt. rounded out' the rest of her year
nt Ilrcst, has Rone to England for a
month of rest nnd then will return to
her home In Ocrmantown. There arel
lots of 1'hllndelphin, Ocrmantown nnd
Chestnut Hill girls, still abroad working
In the Y huts, nnd the "K. of C.'s,"
loo. I tell you, we ought to be proud of
them nil!
Margaret Law recently returned from
working near I.e. Mans, and Helen Alex
ander you kuow the one who plays such
good tennta is still over there nursing
In the Hed Cross canteen, and so Is
Elizabeth Thompson. Of course, Itnrhel
linker is home and Elizabeth Williams
has been here for about three weeks.
Miss Ietltin Mrivlm Is going back
again to do more work on the other
side. She ran the Flag Hut splendidly
when she was there before. Elennorc
ltlsphnm was assigned to that hut for
some time, but lately she hns behn
transferred to the navy cnfcterln in
Hi est.
MNs Esther IJoyd, 1 hear, is nov in
Paris. Agnes Irwin is nt Camp Lin
coln working very hard, nnd Hetty
Elliot Is nt her post in Eedercs, where
Fosephine Pott nnd two of the Cross
girlR from Baltimore have been working
with her.
The letter I received from the other
side which gives me nil this news of our
PMtnilplnhin trlrls snvs that the number
of man is rapidly decreasing, nnd of
after August there will be
scarcely nny left to keep up the huts
for, so X suppose most 01 our gui.s "
return on the Inst boats.
A pretty good record of good work,
methtnks !
THE Monday morning lnusicnles nre
going bnck to being really morning
miisicnle;.. You kuow Inst year they
were changed to nfternoon nffnirs, nnd
thenttendnnce wns not so good it seemed
to me ns when morning was thc'tiinci
Every one is enthusiastic to have them
kept up. The season is to open with
Mme. Amelitn Galli-Ciircl, then Mc
Cormack, Alda. Cortot, Lazznrl, Ganz,
Hnckett nnd Lnnkow will be the lending
artists of the seven other musicales.
Mrs. Harold E. Ynrnall. who hns long
promoted good music in this city, is in
rhnrge of the program for the season.
MRS. LEWIS J. LEVICK had the
loveliest party oiitnU.her honw in
Iltiln on Thursday afternoon. She in
vited the old blind women from the
Clmpin Memorial Home out for the
nftcrnocp nnd she hnd supper for twen
ty -fourof them out of doors. Thnt wns
11 lovclv thing to do, don't you think?
Mrs. William Woodward nnd several of
(he other women who nre interested in
the home went with the inmates and.they
had a most wonderful time. Mrs. Levick
had iced tea to give them as soon ns
they arrived, nnd the dear old Indies
were all dressed up in their best clothes
;nd they enjoyed every minute.
Mis. Woodward nsked n number of
1 er friends to lend their enrs nnd take
the old ladies out, nnd they had n regular
.trade of cars. Of course. Mrs. Levick
had several friends to help her enter
tain. And she said herself she never
1 :td felt so repaid for trying to cheer
iiuv one up. for the guests were so
i harmed and so grateful for every little
attention.
THE fact thnt Aurora Carter, of
Itnltimnro. will make her debut next
winter is of interest here, especially to
those of us who remember her mother,
who wns the pretty Aurora Hazlchurst,
eldest daughter of the Frank Hazlehursts
nnd sister of Mary Steel Hazlehurst and
I Margaret Hazlehurst Patton.
j Aurora's mother came out in this city
1 and wns quite the sensation of her year.
r She wns exceedingly pretty nnd gay nnd
bright as could be. She had a glad but
short life, for after two years of going
out she married Julian Carter and died
very shortly after the present Aurora
wns born.
Mr. Cnrter went to live in Baltimore
and later married Mis Katherine Rush,
of this city. He is a brother of the
-Hev. Oeorge Calvert Carter nnd of Mrs.
Ernest Law, who was Miss Eugenia
Cnrter. Aurora will doubtless come up
to-one if not both of the Assemblies next
j onl., NANCY WYNNE.

TO ASK REDUCTION
OF P. R. T. RENTALS
Btisinoss Men Claim That
Amounts Paid Underlying
Concerns Are Excessivo
In nn effort to bring nbout n reduc
Hon of the nlleged excessive reutnls pnid
by the Philndclphln Rnpld Transit
Company to its underl.ilng companies,
the Cnited Ituslness Men's Association
will tile a petition today with the Pub
lic Service Commission.
This is n renewal ot the lictlonlhnrtcd
by the association shortly before
the declnrntloii of war by the 1'nlted
Stntes," when a simllnr petition tiled
with the commission wns withdrawn
when wnr was declared.
The new petition is n direct result
of the decision bnnded down recently
by the Superior Court, nccordlng to the
association's counsel. The decision held
that a contract between n municipality
and n corporation fixing fnre rates in
definitely is invalid.
1'hls decision, counsel claims, menns1
thnt such contracts fixing nn indefinite
rate of pnjment of rentnls cannot be
made between corporations in the rnse
of n corporation tnking over the com- 1
hined properties. The petition claims
thnt the Philadelphia Rapid Transit
Company is compelled to pay excessive
rentals to underlying compnnies.
Today the United Ilusiness Men's
Association will send n committee to
Washington to offer testimony opposing
that which has been offered by street
railway officials before the Federal
( onimission on Street Rnilways.

PAINTERS LIKE CAMAC
Anyway. They Fail to Disturb Ad fori
"Biggest Little Street" !
'The MiKKrst Little Street iu the

nt Ilroad and Chestnut streets, despite
the fact that it lost its glitter and
color weeks acii and became once more
picturesque t'nniac street, with its
hi ick pavements ami cobblestones anil
rows of clubs.
"The HigKcst Little Street iu tiie
World" was n feature of the Victory
Liberty loan campaign, mid as such
wns widely advertised. 1'nsters telliiiR
of its wonders were erected on iiiiiny
of the electric light poles ill the city
und one of them till remnins in nil its
glory.
The particular polp. on the southwest
corner of Broad ami Chestnut streets,
thnt bears the poster was repainted
last week, its were others in that vi
cinity. In using their brushes the
painters were careful not to disturb the
sign. And it still hangs there.
