Tales of Well Known Folk - In Social and Official Life King Albert of Be]dium. arch, Actively Promot: Highly Esteemed Mon- ing the Coming Inter- national Exposition at Antwerp. BY MARGARET B.

WASHINGTON Pre-Thanksgiving Bazaar Scheduled by Church Group Many attractive features and count- less unusual and lovely axticles, suitable for Christmas gifts have been ‘planned by the various women’s organizations of the Church of the Epiphany for the annual pre-Thanksgiving bazaar and sale, to be held Tuesday and Wednes- day, November 19 and 20, at the parish house, 1317 G street, for the benefit of the Epiphany Church Home at 1221 Massachusetts avenue. Under the experienced direction of Mrs. Ze Barney Phillips, who is general chairman of the bazaar, every woman of the congregation has been busily en- gaged for many months assembling a vast varfety of attractive household and fancy articles; boxes, both beautiful and delicious homemade preserves and jellies, rare and lovely linens—all are for sale at the bazaar—and there Readings in Program At Celebrity Breakfast A delightful feature of the program for the :elehmy breakfast of the Na- tional League of American Pen Women Saturday, November 30, Willard Hotel, will be the readings from someé of her original works by Mrs. Faith Van Val- kenburgh Vilas of New York City, poet, composer, dramatist and author of | pageants. These readings will have musical settings especially written by Mrs. Vilas to suit the mood of the 'ms presented.

While it re-| mains to be seen if the dual Spanish | expositions at Barcelona and Seville result in financial success or appreciable trade expansion, it is a certainty that the smaller international display held in Burlington House, London, during the past Summer achieved both results. That exhibition was devoted to art in whe widest interpretation of the term, and the fabrics of the East as well as new methods in ceramics and wall rofited greatly by parti pation in the London activity. King Albert, through zealous envoys, is arous- ing the enthusiasm of Belgium’'s man fold representatives and not only will the museums yield the best of the gold and silversmiths’ art, but private fam- ilies will send their treasures to the exposition. Already it is predicted that the Flemish tapestries alone will be worth crossing the ocean to see, while the laces, which press close to tapestries | in popular esteem, will be the most complete and gorgeous ever presented | at one exposition. x x %% ‘The Earl of Chesterfield, grandson twice removed of the “polite” Chester- | field, author of the letters, is a leading | golfer at Biarritz, that pictufsque re- sort on the Basque coast of the Bay of Biscay, and since he has been a mem- ber of the. English-speaking colony for some years, he has become a mentor for the newcomer. He knows all the glories of the Basque country and where it merges into the celebrated Blue coast of the Atlantic, and the choice spots| in the Pyrenees and all through those mountains across France or Spain from | the ocean east to the vast inland sea. | He advises all preparing to visit his- | toric or literary shrines not to expect too much, to enjoy the scenery and ol serve the people and not to anticipate an atmosphere of romance. As for instance Bergerac, home of the gallant Cyrano, is a noisy modern commercial town, with traffic problems and ob- streperous tram drivers offers nothing much in the way of sight-seeing. ‘Tarbes, birthplace of Marshal Foch, is & somnolent little city with no life or commotion except in the horse market. But it was there that the heroic leader of the allies began his glorious career as a judge of equine stock in this re- mount station. This market offers a good reason for the motor trip from Biarritz. But the early thinks it best to start off on a tour with good road maps and a local guide and when at- tracted by town, river, mountain peak or castle, to get out the book and read about it, and thus avold disappointing yourself. Ve % Col.~Patrick Hurley, Assistant Secre- | steamship companies to keep their plers Paris. She has extensive farmlands, vines, olive groves, orchards of cherry and peach, fine ranges for stock, and is immersed in her venture and more than pleased with results. Not a half day's motor journey away is the handsome | estate of her daughter, Mme. Jacques Balsan, not far from Nice and on a grim mountain peak overlooking the Mediterranean. The ladies visit fre- quently and make mahy shopping tours to Paris. Mme. Balsan is not. con- cerned so vitally with the feministe question as is her mother, but she belongs to a committee which is in- terested in the same principles as those underlying the League of Women Voters in this country. Although the feministes are supposed to have made great progress in the French Republic, there are few visible tokens of their success. They have entered the profes- sion of law and medicine and reached some heights in bureau appointments, but politically they have achieved no | triumphs such as have women in this country and in European nations other than the Latins. * Kok x Mayor Walker and other responsible officials of New York City gravely ponder a new problem in Gotham’s way of amusing itself, namely, the sun- rise parties now staged at the plers ol‘ outgoing liners and which have been‘ prolonged from midnight, when the out- bound ships sail, to morning, when others are due. Seeing the sun peep over the ocean is deemed great sport i New York, and the revelers who passed the night on the plers are often rein- forced by those who have attended dances or late cabaret shows. If the police authorities of New York could en- force their will they would forbid the open after the liners are well on their way, but apparently they have encoun- tered strong opposition to this simple course. Mr. Joseph Schneider, for many years manager of the North German Lloyd, now in charge of its interests in London. afforded every facility for those who wished to welcome the Bremen on her maiden voyage and to speed her on the way when she turned eastward. The officials of the Cunarders are equally gracious, and all of the directors of the more popular liners deem it a fine, in- expensive way to maintain and increase their prestige. The owls, as those who are addicted to fhaunting the steamship plers in the night have been called, quiet and orderly and few rowdy i dents have been recorded. But it keeps employed a tremendous force of police whom the mayor of New York believes could serve more usefully in other parts of the city. * Xk x Miss Priscilla Mullins Hallett, who re- cently became the bride of Mr. Ira Richardson Hiller, 2d, is a far-off cousin abroad. ‘The board of lady managers of the Epiphany Church Home, headed by Mrs. Arthur MacArthur, have in the past few years achieved an enviable reputation for bringing to their annual sale highly original ideas for gifts and they have made it a study to gather in for this occasio: nd to offer at rea- sonable prices, “things that people really want.” For instance, this season re will be what Miss Wheeler calls atent log carrier” by great store as a “real find,” and highly useful for people who have homes with open fires. The aprons yearly made by the women of the church are so desirable that by the time the bazaar actually arrives, the original stock has been sold out many times in advance, and orders are taken throughout the year for this one article alone. The young women of the congrega- tion are taking care of such articles as cakes and candies, flowers, toys and a truly gorgeous grab bag, and the bazaar would not be complete without the Epiphany's famous “white elephant” table. A supper will be served Tuesday evening beginning at 6 o'clock and on both days of the bazaar (Tuesday and Wednesday) another group will serve luncheon, beginning at 11 o'clock, in truly efficient and professional “cafeteria manner.” This is designed especially for business and professional men and women. A delightful feature to follow the luncheon hours, and as prelude to the dinner, will be the services of afternoon tea, under the direction of Miss Harrlet Leich, who also is in charge of the “white elephants” for the Church Periodical Club. The tea table will be a feature of both Tuesday and Wednes- day afternoons. Among those having charge, as chair- men of the various tables in the bazaar are: Boxes, Mrs. Lester G. Wilson: candy, Miss Elizabeth Keyser; cakes, Miss Ethel Grimes; cafeteria lunch, Mrs. Philip J. Ryan: dinner, Mrs. Edgar Snowden; fancy table, Mrs. Eugene Thompson: flower table, Miss Leah Gatlin; grab bag and toys, in cha of the Sunday school; household table, Miss Mary Y. Wheeler; linen table, Miss Anna C. Rjley; preserves pickles, jellies and fruits, Miss Julia A, Karr: tea table, Miss Harriet Leich; white elephant, table, Miss Leich. The Epiphany Church Home has a long and interesting history. It was founded long before the Civil War, indeed, it was in 1858, when the Rev. Charles Hall was rector of Epiphany parish, that the men of the church de- cided to found a home for the poor women and children of the congrega- tion. The first location was on Thirteenth street between F and G, and the first inmates were a womanh and her two children. During the years of 1863-1870, the activities of the home the program James C.

Miss Powell is the daughter of Col. and Mrs. Alexl.n-l der Powell of this city, and with them has traveled widely, having at one time motored through 22 European coun- tries, gaining a muititude of interesting experiences. Like her father, Miss Powell is interested in international politics, and last year was the youngest speaker on the platform on this subject. rs. V. C.

So he asked to see the rei vereign, the lovely K:\lfll Archduch Charlotte Elise larie of the House of Walram, and the request being granted, he stated his edicament and asked to remain as ying guests. This also was granted and the Grand Duchess, then just 19, and unusually alluring, cast col to the winds and invited the dashing|boast the Canton dinner service where- colonel to dine at the royal table and dance with her later. But perhaps she had heard of the ardent ways of the male species of the Southwest, for she displayed a miniature of the gallant Prince Felix of Bourbon and Parma, then her fiance but now her spouse, ®nd Col. Hurley is said to have con- fded that he, too, cast longing looks be- yond the horizon and hoped when the war was over to claim a well known Washington Belle. If Col. Hurley ever visits Luxembourg with his lady. he will be entertained at the royal ‘palace by grac! Duchess, who, although she rules one of the tiniest Btates in Europe, yet bears a burden of titles not even equalled’ by those which pertain to George of Britain. .y Mrs. Hoover has been honored as have all Pirst Ladies by having named for her one of the most regal chrysan- themums displayed at the recent horti- cultural exhibit staged in the Govern- ment hot houses, and her adorable little inddaughter, Peggy Ann, received a imilar honor. But few of these fine “mums” ever get on the market and so the various namesakes of the First Ladies after a time disappear from the Department’s display. A beautiful mum 1ast year bore the name of “Grace Coolidge” and there was a “Florence Harding” and so back the line as long as these shows have been given. But any variety of bloom named for a spe- cial personage seems to have a way of dying out, or it may be the species is merely relegated to the background to make room for the later celebrities. The Mrs. Aaron Ward rose and the Mrs, Prancis King gladiola are the outstanding exceptions, these being na- tional favorites and in the case of the Trose, boasts an International clientele. ‘The Mrs. Calvin Coolidge gladiola has turned out a_hardy prolific variety and that lady, who admires Spring flowers of the bulbous nature, has had many hundreds of these bulbs planted at the old Coolidge home at Plymouth, Vt., for the pathetic reason that nearby is the cemetery where young Calvin rests, with the grandparents, parents and sis- ter of the former President.

Now the royalties from his book come in so thick and fast | that it is an effort to count them and then have them safely tucked into the | bank. He has removed to more ex- tensive quarters along the Unter den Linden and is enjoying many comforts denied before and since his harrowing ordeal n the World War. Herr Re- marque frankly confesses that the as- tounding vogue of his book has a most stunned him. For like all who write well he felt the irresistible impulse to g\ve expression to the feelings which had lacerated soul and body, and in fact he had to write in order to ease the enduring agony of memory. He wrote all his memorable book on a plain deal table in his small apartment and after he had finished his work of the day.! He rewrote some portions, but in the main the book is just as it came from his almost reeling brain, anguished be- yond endurance by the thoughts of what he and other youths had suffered. Then like the author of “David Harum” he began the difficult task of finding a publisher and he had almost completed th> list in Berlin and thought of try- ing Leipzig. when a clear-headed official of a publishing house resolved to take a chance. It has proved a lucky one for him as well as for the author, for “All Quiet on the Western Front” has been name and published in the Fatherland. T “Big Bill” Tilden of lawn tennis fame ent in athletic pursuits, rounding out his career on the stage. He is the hero of the play “I'm Wise,” which opened in te Princes’ Theater in London the last week in October. But what is astonish- ing is that Mr. Tilden was tried out in this same play last Winter in New York and it was a quick and humiliating fail- ure. Then it was called “They All Want Something,” but crossing the seas its name was changed and apparently its luck. It is something novel for London managers to take over a play which has not registered success in New York, nor do the producers of Gotham usually show enthusiasm over what the British capital discards. But Mr. Tilden has overflowing houses and is treated kindly by the critics. He has written several books on tennis and one or two-on the | stage and it appears that he has always nourished the ambition to be an actor. | During his triumphal march to the | championship in tennis to indulge in | histrionic exploits was too difficult, but now he looks forward to inculcating ideas of ‘“more and better tennis” | through the dramas in which he acts.
