SO 5 Horse Show'to Beneht Nursery at Hospital Due Saturday, May 4 Interested in Entertain- ment to Be Staged by Wardman Park Saddie Club. ‘Washington society and sportsmen will be pleased with the announcement today that the date is set for the Ward- man Park Saddle Club Spring Horse Show. Mr. John O. Gheen, proprietor of the club, initiated the first saddle club horse show five years ago, largely for the benefit and enjoyment of l.ma-! teur riders and children. So much interest was taken in the first show that Mr. Gheen made a semi-annual event out of it, holding it in the Fall and Spring of the year, when the natural setting of Rock Creek Park, which sur- rounds the equitation field, is practi- ularly beautiful and adds to the en- Joyment of the sport and nature lovers who attend. As the fame and success of this “little horse show” grew, Mr. Gheen and Mrs. Edmund Horgan, who, with her husband, Dr. Edmund Horgan, keeps several fine horses at the club, conceived the idea of turning the horse show into & charity horse show, and last Fall saw the first which was given for the benefit of the Garfleld Hos- pital Nursery Guild. Mrs. Horgan, who is & member of the board of the guild, ,was in charge. The interest in the event was tremendous and the charity horse show was & success from every viewpoint. So much so that it has now been decided that it shall be an annual event, taking place each Spring, :when the equitation field and natural setting of the Wardman Park Saddle Club is loveliest. Many Entries in Advance Confidently Anticipated. The horse show will be held this Spring on Saturday, May 4, and entries are expected to be made well in ad- vance, It will be one of the first out- door events of any size in the Capitol and great interest has already been evidenced, not only on the part of young riders and amateurs, but older persons, professional riders, and those who own horses which they are anxious to_exhibit in one or more of the events. Then there is the added feature of the handsome trophies and _prizes, , Which wers donated last year for the first time, by private indivduals and well known merchants who took an in- terest in the charity appeal. It is ru- mored that Mary Roberts Rhinehart, who was one of the judges last Fall, will attend this Spring in that capacity, and that Senator Glenn of Tllinois, who keeps several horses at the club for g;rk show purposes, mey try for a rib- n. The three little girls seen most fre- quently on the bridal paths this sea- son of the year—indeed all the year round—are Miss Betty Couzens, the Senator's youngest daughter; Miss Nancy Jones, and Miss Emiline Davis. All three took prizes last Fall and will try to keep their places in the sun this Spring. Kentucky Thoroughbred « ' To Contest for Trophy. Besides Nancy Jones has & beautiful mew Kentucky thoroughbred shipped to 4 her direct from the Blue Grass, which *she has been working out and which she is counting on for at least ene ~irophy. Miss Betty Couzens’ older {7 sister, Margot, who is an expert rider, Lwill take part, Then there are Miss “'Hester Ann LeFevre and her small sister, Miss Sally Mitchell LeFevre, both equestriennes who ride from the Saddle Ciub, and many more whose names will appear as they post their entries. Perhaps it is due to the fact that the #washington bridal paths are practically the same for all of the local riding clubs and schools which leads to the spirit of co-operation and good will between them. They are all located on the paths which run through Rock Creek. Whether this is true or not the fact remains that each one takes an active interest in the shows in the events of the others. We may expect . this Spring, then, as in the past, that the Wardman Park Saddle Club Horse ! 8how, to be given Saturday, May 4, for ithe benefit of the Garfield Hospital iNursery Guild will have participants from the Riding and Hunt Club, the .Rock Creek Park Club, Mrs, Preece's { Bchool, Potomac School and the War- ! renton Hunt Club. These young riders | will find this an excellent opportunity to get in form for the National Capitol ‘. Horse Show, which will be held the last of May. | Epiphany Home Benefit i Due Tomorrow Evening The board of managers of the Epiph- | any Home for the Aged has bought the entire seating capacity of the National Theater for tomorrow evening, when | the National Theater Players will pre- sent “The Skull.” The board of man- agers of the home will dispose of the geats as a benefit for the institution.
