SO CIETY. Society Taking Lead To Arouse Interest In Saddle Club Show Entertainment Scheduled for May Serves Triple Pur- pose With Welfare Work Promotion Chief Aim. ‘Washington society, always enthusias- tic over horse shows, will be well repre- sented at the show next month by the Wardman Park Saddle Club. This show will serve a triple purpose—furnishing amusement for the participants and on- lookers, money for the Garfield Hospital Nursery Guild for its yearly budget to maintain its four baby wards and fur- nishing work to the students of the Dennison Vocational Public School for Girls, who are making a large percent- age of the simple little gowns. In former years the money derived from the show has been spent for handsome trophies. but this year the entire proceeds will be used to enlarge the funds of the guild. The Garfield Hospital has found it necessary to en- large one of its departments and what- ever surplus remains from the Nursery Guild budget for its four baby wards will be given toward enlarging this im- portant department. “Smart” Young Riders Listed as Participants. Mr. John O. Gheen of the Saddle Club_is managing the horse show which will be given Saturday, May 4, at the Rock Creek Park Equitation Field, under the auspices of the Welfare and Recreational _Association of Public Buildings and Grounds.
