Entertainment to Be| Presentation of ‘Main Street’ The Young Woman's Christian Asso- ciation is planning a most unusual | entertainment to be given at the! Blue Triangle Clubhouse, 20th and B| streets northwest, on the evening of | Thursday, July 20. It is to be called | “Main Street,” but is not a dramatiza- tion of Sinclair Lewis' famous novel. It is an idea that was first carried out with great success by the Y. W. C. A. in Indianapolis and has many novelties to offer in the way of en- tertainment. The setting will be the reproduction of a typical main street of any smali town. There will be the post office, general store, bakery, bar- ber shop and other landmarks fa- miliar to all of us, except perhaps those of the tenement district of some of our large citles. There w probably be few citizens of Washing- ton who visit this affair to whom the sight will not bring some memories of a similar setting. The general na- ture of the entertainment during the early part of the evening will be that of a carnival. The second half of the program will be a Yaudeville show of soags, clever sketches and dancing glven in the town “op'ry house. These special- ties will be put on by members of the different business girls' clubs, which, combined as the business department of.the association, are responsible for the entire entertainment. The Wash- ington Boys' Independent Band will play during the evening, and at the cloge of the vaudevilie program there will be dancing on the terrace. The object of the program is to raise money for the renting or possibly ! purchasing of a clubhouse for the clubs next summer. The two circuses glven so successfully last year pro- vided the funds which are paying for the rented clubhouse at Cabin John this year. The members of the executive com- mittee, representing the various clubs in the business department. who are in.charge of the “Main Street” enter- tainment are: Miss Grace Brame, Miss Mathilda Butler, Miss Bessie Chaney, Miss Frances Roberts. Miss Helen Pursglove. Miss Winifred Staubley, Miss Agnes Higdon, Miss Helene Ald- rich, Miss Peggy Helliwell, Miss el Holmes. Miss Florence Shep- pard, Miss Louise Feisburg and Miss Aurelia Canaday. often responsible for the success of very complicated and brilliant social functions, and can do much to win popularity for her employer. No two positions as social secretary are iden- tical in requirements and methods of treatment to be used. Many of the most successful social secretaries to- day took no special course for such work, and in nearly every case they state’ that it is primarily essential that the aspirant for success in_this field be of a family holding good So- clal position. Mrs. Hoover Alds Many Mrs. Herbert Hoover has done much to help ambitious voung girls from hér home state—Californfa—to ac- quire social tralning and an insight Into the especially fascinating social life of the Capital city by arranging so that different ones can visit her and act as her soclal secretary while here. In this way they get a prac- tical as well as an unusually inter- esting view of the complicated eti- quette of Washington soclety, with its many distinct circles of social standing. Probably the highest position to which a soclal secretary can hope to attain in the United States is the much-coveted position of socfal sec- retary to the first lady of the land. This position was established by Mrs. Theodore Roosevelt, who selected Miss Isabel Hagner to be the first social secretary to a President’s wife. Previously this work was handled by undersec-atariee in the executive offices. Miss Hagner, now Mrs. Nor- man James of Baltimore. was well known in social. civic and political circles. and knew Washington thor- oughly. Similarly. Miss Alice Blech (Mrs. Richard Wainwright. jr.), who was Mrs. Taft's secretary, possessed in- valuable knowledge of official and diplomatic life, and was especlally noted as a lingulist, speaking French. Ttalian, Spanish 'and German as fluently as English. Miss Katherine Letterman was another soclal secre- tary to Mrs. Taft. and Miss Edith Benham (later Mrs. Helm, wife of ‘Admiral Helm, U. S. N.) acted in this capacity for Mrs. Woodrow Wilson. Due to 11l health in the presidential family and later to the curtailment of all social activities necessitated by a state of war, Miss Benham did not have as many opportunities to nrove her abilitles while in the White House as the other social secretéries there have enjoyed. Miss Harlan Expert. Miss Laura Harlan, social secretary to Mrs. Harding, is acknowledged by many who are authorities on the sub- ject to be by far the most efficient and _accompiished soclal secretary ever Yn the White House. _Although she is of Kentucky birth, Miss Har- lan,is generally considered a Wash- inglonian, as she grew up here and received most of her education here, where her family has always been recognized as one of the leading fa ilies of Washington. Her father was “Laf-a-lot Lodge” the attractive 1ittle cabin rented by the members of thé Business Girls’ Clubs affliated with the Y. W. C.

FLAPPER DEFINED. An interesting academic discussion of the flapper and her habits is print- ed in the June issue of the Atlantic Monthly under the title “Flapper Americana Novissima.” It is written by G. Stanley Hall, prestdent of Clark College, Worcester, Mass., since 1888. We find the professorial attitude to- ward the flapper rather unique, and Mr. Hall's detailed description of one flapper in particular is so refresh- ingly delightful, after the many sar- castically sophisticated flings which have been thrown at the dear child," that we quote it, as follows: “The other day I found myself walk- ing a few rods behind a girl who must have been approaching sweet sixteen. She held to the middle of the broad sidewalk. It was just after 4, and she was apparently on her way home from high school. We were on a long block that passed a college campus, where the students were fore- gathering for afternoon sports. She was not chewing gum, but was occa- slonally bringing some tidbit from her pocket to her mouth, taking in everything in sight, and her gait was swagger and superior. ‘Howdy, Billy,’ she cailed to a youth, whom 1 fancled a classmate, and ‘Hello, boys,” was her greeting to three more a lit- tle later. “Soon she turned on her heel and wandered back, so that I had to meet her. A glance at her comely, happy, innocent and vividly tinted face, as L swerved Yo one side that she might keep to the middle of the walk, almost made me feel that it would not surprise her overmuch if 1 stepped to the very edge of the gut- ter and removed my hat, as if apolo- gizing for trespassing on preserves that belonged to her. Had I done so, however, it might have made no dif- ference; for I suspect that she would have remained unconmscious of my very existence, although just then We were almost the only ones on the block. = “If I had been twenty and attrac- tive she would have been able to describe me to a nicety without for an instant having me in the direct focus of her vision; for we must never forget that, at this very pecu- liar age, nature gives to the other sex quite as great sensitiveness of indirect as of direct vision, so that they know fully as much of what falls on the periphery of their retina as of -what strikes their fovea—If not, sometimes, more. “I mow felt at liberty to look at her a little more carefully. She wore a knitted hat, with hardly any brim, of a flame or bonfire hue; a henna scarf; two strings of Betty bead: of different colors, twisted togethe: an open short coat. With ampie pockets; a skirt with vertical stripes, 80 pleated that, at the waist, it seern- ed very dark, but the alternate stripes of white showed progressively down- ward, 8o that, as she walked, it gave something of what psychologists_ call a flicker effect.

Moulden, ong a resident of this city, has been placed on the retired list of the gov ernment on his own application. Mr. Moulden is now emploved in the gov ernment printing office. Born_in_Rockville, Md., October 1852, Mr. Moulden came to Washing- ton In 1868 and attended the public schools here, being among the first to enter the new Franklin School, then the largest institution of 1ts kind in the District. During his school term he served The Star, and upon leaving he enter- ed the government printing office as an apprentice to the printing trade, graduating after a four-year appren- ticeaniy in 1877, Mr. Moulden has traveled consider- ably and at different times has work- ed for many, of the large newspapers throughout the country.
