Stock Scene of Much Color and Gayety—Ladies in Charge. One of the most attractive garden parties ef this season was held at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Fdward L. Steck, Stockholm, Bradley Hills, Md.. Friday afternoon and evening. It was the scene of much celor and Eayety. This fete was given under the auspices of the board of lady managers of the Eastern Dispensary and Casualty Hospital fer the benefit of Casualty Hospital The grounds were tastefully deco- rated with gayly colored Japanese ! lanterns and balioons and the vari- colored frocks worn by the ladies added greatly to the brilllance of the sceéne. A EYpSy camp was located at the far end of the lawn, where two tents were pitched, and here Mrs. E. L. Pugh. Miss Maria Montejo Davidson and Mr. Nesbit Morrison told fortunes, Wwhile other ladies in gypsy garb sold balloons and lured the guests to have thelr palms read. Among those whe_participated in this were Mrs. M. J. Willlams of Bir- mingham, Ala.; Mrs. Cromwell Lewis, Mra. James McGreevy, Mrs. B. Mans- fleld, Mrs. Bertrand Trenis, Mrs. Ed Banks Glbson, Mra. Frank Morri- son, Mrs. C. Viola Fellows and Misses Margaret Mansfleld, Dorothy Casley, Elizabeth Stewart, Rebecca Dial, Margurite Barnes, Elsle Schultz, 8arah Brawner and Elizabeth Morris. During the afternoon Miss Eleanor Branson danced the “Spirit of Lib- erty” while Miss Anne Branson danced the “Sweet Pea Dance’ and the “Jockey Dance” was done by the Masters Buckhart. Much entertain- ment and pleasure was derived from Mrs. David H. Kincheloe's vocal and whistling solos, which were accom- panied by Mrs. Fred Conway. Her Selections were “I'd Follow Thee.” a lovely little Irish melody. and “Ma Curly-headed Baby,” a negro lullab Her whistling solo was “The Mock- ing Bird.” Miss Marg: Mansfield rendered Mendelsshon's “Spring Song” on the violin. Supper was served on the lawn under the trees, and much credit is due the ladies on the com- mittee for the successful manner in which the whole event was carried Off. These ladles were Mrs. M. J.

Bridge and five hundred were play- ed on the east porch, which was ar- tistically decorated with flowers. In the evening the drawing rooms were thrown open for dancing, which continued until 12 o'clock. Flowers and Fairies To Feature Program As a fitting climax to the five-day program of amusement planned for the old-fashioned fair which is to be held at the Masonic Temple, from May 31 to June 4, for the benefit of the Christ Child Society, a brilliant flower and fairy pageant will be given by the children of the Italian school conducted at the headquarters of the society. The pageant, written by Mrs. E. L. Pugh, and to be staged by her, with the assistance of Miss Maria David- son, Mrs. F. C. Billard and Miss Eleanor Heany, will be presented promptly at 4:30 o'clock the after-| noon of Saturday, June 4. In beauty | of conception and elaboration of de- | sign it promises to rival any of the artistic productions previously offer- ed by Mrs. Pugh to the Washington public. Mrs. J. N. Steed, who is in charge of the luncheon room at the fair, achieved a wide fame in base hos- pital 17 during the world war, where she served for a year. She reached wonderful speed in the way of serv- ing many in_a short period, 2,000 doughnuts and 250 gallons of choco- late being an average in normal times. Many of the former service men will be glad to receive the same sort of doughnuts and steaming bev- erage from her hands, together with dainty sandwiches and good home- made cake. Mrs. Steed received the Verdun medal for heroic service under fire and also a gold medal pre- sented by the Jewish welfare council at Dijon. Comedy of Social Life In Washington Scheduled Mrs. George Barnett and Mrs. John Fremont have found time for re- hearsals of “A Marriageable Mother,” despite all the distractions of last week which brought so many inter- esting social events. This comedy of Washington social life, written by Mrs. C. C. Calhoun, will be played three evenings next week at the Belasco Theater, May 30, May 31 and June 1, for the benefit of the Com- munity Service, the Women's Welfare and the George Washington Memorial, ch recelving the proceeds of one performance. Mrs. Calhoun will have the title part in her own play, which has many strong situations, it is said, and is marked by bright dialogue. In sup- port of the Wazhington players there will be several New York profes- sionals, including Miss Pauline Eding- ton, Murray Bennett and George Healey, the last two from the Provincetown Players. Capt. Cal- houn has been cast as a Virginia judge; Marquis Buenavista of the Peruvian embassy will appear as an attache of the French embassy, and other men In the cast include George Langley, Edwin Trusheim, Robert Knox and Foxhall Daingerfield.

MISS CAROLYN D. BOARDMAN, Daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Boardman, who announce her engage- ment te Mr. Ourtis C. McDonnell. Gives Second Talk On the Indian Mr. Thomas L Gasson, S. J. of Georgetown University Is to give his second talk on the Indian, at 2408 K street nerthwest tomorrow night, May 23. The romantic, colorful western indian is to be his subject for this talk. Father Gasson has spent much time with the Indlans and knows the 100 per cent American as few men do. He tells of his experience with the Indians in a most interesting and entertaining manner. That the In- dians regard Father Gaesson with much esteem is evidenced by the fact that many tribes have shown him the highest honor within their power such as they bestow upon their chief. In two tribes very similar names were given him, that of “Soaring Eagle” and “High Bird,” showing the discriminating power of the red men and the lofty ideals of their friend. We have no connection with any house of similar name elsewhere. A Most Pleasing Display tpsb orn-—r——b 2S ' 608 TO 616 11th ST.
