lid that's all.
Mrs. Day and Mrs. I.orlmer are sort
Of hand in hand on these two ccui
Bit tee", because Mrs Day is a vice
chairman of Mrs. Lorimer's Armenian
relief and Mrs. Lorlmcr is n vice pres
ident of Mrs. Day's College Associa
tion. And, of course, you understand
this is the Pennsylvania branch, not
the national association. I should hate
to get you mixed up about it.
WELL, the midwinter ball last night
was a great success, although lots
of people turned up missing on account
of the bad weather and colds, und
jrippe, and so on. But those who did
Jo had an awfully good time, and the
Small crowd gave you a much better
chance to see the gowns that people
had on, and there were some stunning
ones there, too. The decorations were
ferns and, as one young man expressed
it. "some kind of pink flowered plants.
Ellen Mary Cassatt almost matched
them with her pink and silver brocade,
which was awfully good looking and
molt becoming. Mrs. Henry Brinton
Coxe wore a very striking gown of a
sort of king's blue, with a long train.
Euseria Cassatt looked very well In a
salmon-pink brocade, and Mrs. BilHe
Clothier wore a simple gown of darK
blue, with a short skirt.
Margaret Berwind was in white
satin, and Betty Welsh, who seemed
to be having a glorious time, also wore
white. Mrs. Berwind had on a beauti
ful gown of blue and silver brocade,
which, with her silvery hair, was very
stunning. The gown was made with a
court train, and she wore silver slip
pers. Tibbv Taylor's dress was also
a brocade of a lovely sort of turquoise
blue and silver. Mrs. BilHe Forbes
looked very well in black, and it was
tufuly attractive with her black bair
and dark eyes. I don t know when
I've heard an orchestra so extra peppy,
and the fact that so many people had to
stay away made the dancing much
easier and less crowded than in former
years.
rpHE Ivy Ball of the senior class ol
J- the University (of Pennsylvania, of
course, I wish I didn't have to put mat
in, because it takes so long to. spell,
and there's only one Ivy Ball, anyhow)
will bo held next Friday night in
Weifhrman Hall. On Friday the thir
tnth. .ml the dnv before Vnlentine's
Day, I take it they're not superstitious
out at the university.
I hear that the zvmnasitira will be
J "transformed into a fairyland teeming
Jwlth Oriental atmosphere, while the
(students just released from the tedious
iniaj ear examinations will sway to tue
syncopations o two orchestras."
Doen't that sound delightful? The

"Poland Redeemed"
"When tho fair land of Poland was
ploughed by the hoof of the ruthless
invader" in the Great War, the wail of
its hapless millions had in it the echo
of sorrowful cries that attended its
triple partition in the bad old days of a
dismal past. To this piteous refrain
has succeeded, through the valor of
patriotic descendants of Kosciusko and
of tiat Thaddeus nf AVarsaw immortal
ized in history, and with the potent aid
of the victorious Allies, the song of tri
umph over the restoration of ancient
prestige nnd of freedom nobly won.
Intimate glimpses of the transformation
and of the promise of future changes
were afforded last night at the Academy
of Music to the large audience which
saw and heard Newman's illustrated
traveltalk on "Poland Redeemed."
Like all tho world traveler's enter
tainments it was a delightful experience.
"Poland Redeemed" will be repeated
this afternoon, and the traveltalk series
will end next week with "France A'ic
torious." Dr. Thomas to Lecture Here
The Rev. Dr. II. Griffith Thomas,

THROUGH A GLASS DARKLY
By FANNIE HURST
Esther LefkovUch, on her first trip
across the ocean, meets and likes Joe
Danzigtr, tcha 'admires her. i(n.
LefkovUch dislikes him very much
hecause he wins so much money from
her hustand. Bhe finds Esther alone
on deck, tchere Danziger left her to
play cards tolth her father, and tries
tS persuade her to write to Ate Katz,
a boy at home, who loves her.
CHAPTER VI

when we cet to Paris. Like he says,
Esther, nil what he waits for is the word
from you that he should come. Right
to me on the pier, saying good-by, ne
said those words."
"No wonder, the way you Btuck next
to him, mamma."
"Think. Esther, a smart boy like Abe
what is always so thoughtful of every
body to help us around in Paris, -where

himself, nothing could give papa so
much pleasure either as Abe should bo

is the silver rine. Run down once and

get the portfolio and write to mm on tne
pink writing paper, en.'
"Oh. mama, vou you get me so mad.

Your old mother only wishes you the
worst. She wishes you to forget n

let you alone. I'll let you alone. Right
back in my bog goes the silver key ring.
I'll let you alone."
"That's what I want you to do."
"I tell you, Esther, this pain what I
got over 'my heart yesterday and to
day ain't for nothing. I tell you the
excitement when you nearly missed tho
boat this afternoon, and for a mother
to see all of a sudden her baby begin
nonsense with a nix from Chicago what
nobody don t know nothing about, ex
cept what he brags himself, is enough
to give heart failure. Better we had
stayed right at home in "

a dozen small walnut tables with carved
tassels at their four corners; chess
boards here and there, a king or pawn
left standing. The paraphernalia of
idleness was everywhere about; a peri
odical face downward; a woman's work
bag. Finally and beneath the left bal
cony, a group of eight sitting silent
about a round table. The quiet rattle
of bone chips, an occasional Bpoken
word, but low and staccato.
From her balcony, sitting there a
small huddle of squandered emotions and
bankrupt vitality, her bair fallen awry
and the red rims fresh about her eves.
Esther Lefkoviteh caught sight of that
table, though directly beneath her bal
cony, through one of the long mirrors
opposite. She leaned forward ; then
farther, her lips opening. A tear dried
and left a vitrified glistening on her
cheek.
Suddenly, as she watched, chin cup
ped in palm, head dropped into the
hunch of her shoulders, she leaned for
ward, gripping the edge of the divan:
leaned closer, her quick breath, too light
to nutter a tear, coming through her
open lips. Passed a nuarter'hour. n
half, an hour, and still she sat there
immobile, her hypnotized eyes on the
mirror. Two spots of color came out
round and burning on either cheek and
one heat wave raced another through
her body.
With the great effort of pulling her
strength together, she rose finally, 'but
