MARCH 18, m -* Tales of Well Known Folk In Social and Official Life Heads Board Formed to Direct Chicago's Centennial Celebration. BY MARGARET B. DOWNING. Mr. Rufus Cutler Dawes, brother of Vice President and long his assoei- £'3.4n financial and other enterprises in Chicago, has been selected president of the World's Fair board of management. An association banded together to make the 100th birthday of the lake metrop- olis in 1933 as outstanding a celebra- tion as was the Columbian Exposition in 1892-1893. PFive years do not appear to Mr. Dawes and his colieagues as much time to prepare for this international event. and already the leading citizens and citizenesses have been divided into £Toups and minute committees. It has been conceded by world travelers and eminent artists that the part of Chicago which lies between the mouth of the river and southward to the shores of Lake Michigan strongly resembles the archipelago formed by the Adriatic Sea and the north end of Delmatia. Mr. Dawes has under consideration the plans of some leading engineers and architects | to create such an archipelago as a site for the exposition and to have it another Venice. set in one of the world's mighty modern cities: and to use the environ- ment to erect buildings which will re- femble those on the Adriatic. Above all. the waters which flow over sandy shal- Jows and thus receive shimmering opa- tine hues will be covered with bright col- ored sails and with the gay boats asso- ciated in the mind with the canals of Venice. Chicago clings to the hope of having the Olympic games staged there in 1933, and this alone would lift the exposition into the realm of interna- tional importance. Mrs. Francis P. Garvan of New York City has what is deemed to be the most complete collection now in existence of carly silver tankards made by the Co- lonial smiths. Mrs. Garvan, who was Miss Mabel Brady of Albany. began to #how interest in old silver in her carly girlhood and Albany was an excellent place to study originals. for the buffets of the old Knickerbockers. who still reside tn the New York capit: are filled with the bast specimens.

R o Miss Leila Sherman, daughter of AROUND THE BY NANNIE 4ERE is a small boy in the blue- ribbon class who knows what he wants when he wants it. The other day, for one time, his * mother and pretty deb sister were about to call on Mrs. Coolidge, {when small son asked permission to go | along. His mother. | indulgently aware of the babyishness the request. soothed him with a promise that she would take him some time later on he was too young | now, In response to Mr. and Mrs. Charles A. Sherman of | this delay, the boy New York City. and granddaughter of | voiced emotional the late John T. Sherman. is among the talented sculptors in amateur ranks and she sometimes tries her hand at palette and brush. Sherman ends her time equally in her New York home and at her father's ranch at Clarks Fork River in Wyoming, and she has won her spurs in round-ups and at rodeos. Recently Miss Sherman’s portrait was painted by the British artist, H. Harris Brown, and this eanvas will mark a departure, as it shows an aspect of life not often figured. For the equestrienne is in regular cowgirl attire, a bolero jacket of the finest Indian bead work on chamois and edged with sea green velvet. Her gauntlets are of the same and she holds a wide pale fawn color hat. Her leather riding breeches are of the widest pattern and Rayly decorated with beads and metal ornaments. Her boots are just as ornate. The artist has racently hung several canvases in the | Louvre in Paris and in the National Gallery of London and he hopes after this unique portrait has been exhibited in New York to take it abroad. Miss Sherman is the cousin of Lady Ronald Lindsay. wife of the British diplomat who was many times stationed in Washington and who has recently been Ambassador to Kemal Pasha in the new Capital of Turkey, Angora. and in Berlin. She studied for many years in Paris. and, though she made a formal debut two years ago, she has renounced social pleasures to pursue art. e Mr. Ralph Adams Cram, the Rer, Thomas Lawrason Riggs and others equally distinguished in letters and art founded some years ago the Saint Hilda Guild in New York City to restore a sense of correctness and beauty to all pertaining to church buildings. interior decorations and to the services. At a recent election of officers. Mr. Cram. oné of this country’s most illustrions ecclesiastical architects, and Francis Riggs. son of the late E. Francis Riggs, the banker and brother of Mr. Elisha Prancis Riges of Green Hill Manor in Prince Georges County, were retainec as president _and vice president. with Rev. Joseph Patton McComas as an ad- ditional vice president. ‘The 8t Hilda Guild has during Lent held it annual exhibit of vestments, ecclesi tical embroidery, altar linen and orna ments, and so great was the educational value to this display that clergymen of all denominations and from every pa of the country have hastened to New York during the period allotted to the public. which was one month. The headquarters at 131 East Forty-seventh street is temporarily given over to the display and to lectures conducted by noted art critics and experts on church services and their proper environment. Loan exhibits comprise the larger part of the guild’s annual offerings to the public. but none but those of absolute historic and artistic value are accept- able.

This is Just a glimpse backward at one of them: A cobwebby office, with gray dusk through the curtainless windows—hiding the gray dust of corners, shelves and chalrs, A boy at a deal table, writing a dra- matic review—a boy ‘with hair like heavy black satin, a skin as pink and fine as a baby's, and eyes like midnight suns. The thing he ‘was working on was a continuation of a report that had threatened him the loss of his job—a poor job, that paid him $15 a week, but which he loved because his heart was in his work and because of an am- bition that demanded constant expres- sion—and because he was only 18. The whole office knew that he had dared to print that a certain performer | was unfit to be seen by respectable peo- | ple, because of a disrobing act on a I trapeze bar, a vulgarity which the play- | bill' referred to as Art. The theater | threatened withdrawal of its advertise- | ment, and the newspaper threatened | the boy with dismissal.
