Nancy Wynne Talles of the Dunning Tea This Afternoon.
Mrs. William du Pont, Jr., to Receive Tomorrow at
Netvtoivn Square Other Matters of Interest
THE debutante of this afternoon, tnc
second of the two debutantes of this
week, the first having been Kleanor
' .Tones whose uint Sirs. Krank Ornnger
Kennedy gave her n tea on Monday,
will be Nancy Dunning.
Nnncy is tho daughter of Mr. nnd
Mrs. 'George A. Dunning and n slater
of Eleanor, Norman and Lclghton Dun
ning. Mrs. llllllo Drayton jr., is an
cider sister. JSoncy is rather small
with brown hair nnd eyes and isji gen
erally dainty person. She Is very sweet
nnd has charming manners.
Nancy's mother was Miss Martha
Binney, a sister of Mr. Harold Uinney
of New York, whoso daughter Con
stance has made quite a success on the
stage. She appeared hero Jast year in
"Oh Boy," where she was the premiere
danseuse nnd this year has been playing
in "80 EaBt." having gotten out of
musical comedy into the straight act
ing parts.
I think Nancy has nbout; every de
butante this year receiving, with her,
judging from those .1 have heard bay
, they were going . The ten will be given
in tho Acorn Club, which is n splendid
place for accommodating a crowd of
pn.ftta. rlnn't vnn think?
The. large ball room with its old we'
hangings nnd wans moKcs 11 mu-i
'harming background for an affair of
the kind. Then thp back rooms are so
admirably suited for tho serving of
"eats." ,
It's my idea of giving a ten, no fuss
or bother at home, all you have to do
is go to the club nnd dress there, be
cause of course there are always flowers
to arrange.
It really is marvelous the flowers
that are cent to the debutnnteK on their
ccming out day. It usually stop
there however nnd is not, as in the days
of our mothers, when girls went to
every dance laden (with bouquets sent
by the men who asked for the cotillon,
and for supper nnd for this dance or
that. And when said girl of long nB
danced she had to deposit all of said
bouquets upon the lap of her chaperone.
As at times one older woman might
, be chaperoning three or four girls, pic
ture where was chapcrouc when said
girls were dancing?
T SAW Mrs. Billie Hirrt on Chestnut
1 street on Wednesday and sue cer
tainly did hnve n good looking hat.
It Vas a small affair of fawn colored
cloth or perhaps .It may have been
duvctvne. I wns not very close to her,
and it was trimmed well to the back
with the most exquisite shade of dull
French blue ostrich feathers I have
"TtV'SftSlr rather dark skin
and black hair and she looked stunning.
She was wenring a smart tailored suit
nnd furs. .

ROBERTSON ON HAMLET
Actor-Lecturer Gives Second Shake
spearean Talk
In the hands of n consummate artist,
Hamlet is nn nlm.lbl.iK I-m1t whether
he wears the accustomed tights, and
sword or whether he wears the un
familiar evening dress suit nnd pince
nez. And Sir Johnston Forbes -Robert -sou
proved it last night in the Acndcinj
of Sliisic- at the second reading of his
series of three on the plajs of Shakes
peare. His third and last leading, in
"Othello, Slacbeth and King Lenr,"
will be given on Slonday.
Sir Johnston Inst night presented the
entire plnv of "Hamlet" in episodic
readings, choosing the most picturesque
and colorful selections to cover the
noble march of the pluy. The tragic
and pitiful figure of the wretched prince
was disclosed through a passage
sequence that touched the full range of
human emotion. And the poitraal lost
little because the illusion of time and
character relationship wns lacking in
the absence of setting and cast. II.
recited four of the six Hamlet soliliqujH
and closed his reading with the popular
soliloquy on suicide.
In prefacing his readings, Sir John
ston said that one-third of the plajs of
Shakespeare are written in prose, and
thnt one-third of "Hamlet" itself is
In nrnse He snid. too. that Shakes
peare breaks into prose only when fools
nnd madmen nre talking. Kings and
queens in Shakespeare's plays never
speak in prose, except wheji they lose
their reason
"When folks nsk me 'Is Hamlet
mad?' " said Sir Johnston, "then T get
mad. Theie is nothing in Hamlet to
prove he is mud. There is, however,
a deal of impishness in the chnracter
of the Dane lie feigns madness."

A Word of Appreciation
To the JZdltor of thr Evening 1'ubllc Lettorr:
Sir Ily direction of the president
nnd executive hoard of the American
Civic Association, It is my pleasnnt
privilege to thank ,ou, on behalf of
the nsociation, for the very excellent
'notices of the convention of the asso
ciation, held during the past week.

Field Secretary.
Criticizes P. R. T.
To the i:dilor of thr Evening ruHio Ledger
Sir While the Traction Co. is issu
ing its dnn'ts to the public (nnd they
nie getting very tiresome), why not give
them u few dnn'ts for Its own use?
First. Don't stop cars in the middle
of the block nnd order passengers to get
off, with a great chance of being hit by
an auto before reaching the sidewalk.
They say cross nt the crossings. If you
don't get off they refuse to stop nt the
corner nnd carry jmi on another block.
"This Car Stops Here" is n great sign
bv the Traction Co. Why don't they
do it and not endanger the lives of pas
sengers?
Second. Don't expect passengers to
cet off the car while it is in motion.
You see it every dnj. Car doors nre
thrown open while the cur is in motion, '
with an ancerrd or Insulting look from
the inntorinnn if you don't jump. i
Third. Don't stop and start the carl
with n jerk nnd look nround and see
how many passengers hnve been tluown
an. I rive them the merry laugh. i
Fourth, Don't run the jellovv cars on1
stieets like Fifty-second and Sixtieth!
n, l.n !!!ento,trra,;,dtlnyn;",sfsIb,n. i
strike a car passing sometimes, as the I
ears ,ioek coiisidernblj . This amuses
the motorman and the smnll ltoj 1'os-1
siblv this may hove been cured bv now..
ns the writer ilcclini'ii to rule turtner
on them until the tracks were fixed or
orders given to go carefully.
Fifth. Don't give the public any more
pnj-as-oii-lenv. cars or Hog Island
cars. They were not made for females
to ride in. but for acrobats ami joung
men and boys. Have the Rotary Club
call a meeting ot the traction cinplojcs",
from the president down to the car
hostler, and read these dnn'ts, nnd they
nn t hnve so much advice for the pub
lic. ' O. R.

Who Is a Jay?
To the l.ditor ot the Evening Public Ledget :
Sir What is n jnvV Consulting a
modern dictionary one learns thnt jaj
is "a country bumpkin, a victim of
sharpers, a gr.enhoru. a hnnifatter
(meaning n lovv-grnde actor), and a
coaise, loud woman,"
I am convinced that' the miblic-
1 spirited nnd estimable Rotarians, in
co-operation with the P. R. T., who
lulve inaugurated tins praiseworthy
movement to minimize street accidents,
nnd who have as their motto, "Dun't it,
A. J.." did not ascertain in advance the
significance of their slognn

tinfllc Is grently congested, but this ap
plies to only n few streets such as
Hroud, Arch nud .Market streets, and
to strangers nnd people who are rare
less where thej step, who abstractedly
traverse our streets, thinking the while
where they ran buy n pair of shoes for
Johnnie thnt will last a month, or se
cure n pound or two of sugar.
Hetter take those signs down nnd re
place with tliis, ''Stop and Look He
Careful Before Crossing the Stieets,"
emphasising the words, "stop aud look,
be careful. '
1 believe it is safer nnd saner often
times tit cross a street between cross
ings than at crossings where there Is
congestion often a string of auto
mobiles breathing hard, trolley curs
with the motormen clanging the bells,
ready to run jou down, scure jou half
to death and waste jour time.
The trollejs nt street crossings usii
nll.v, but not always, go straight ahead,
but automobiles, inotorovclrs, trucks,
ice wngnns nnd other vehicles often
mnke unforeseen turns up or down the
cross street. Increasing the hazard to
those who nre trjing their best not to
be n jay.
I urn not the only one who enjoys the
liberty of crossing our thoroughfares at
nnv point where it is safe and con
venient to do so, nor the oulv one who
docs not like to be called names. I
write this, not to obstruct the reform
aimed nt by the Rotarians nnd the P.
It. 'P., but to help put the matter in
form to insure popular fuvor nnd ulti
mate success.
