The complete cast of young singers and dancers for this Spring performance includes 92 girls. The extensive plans for the tableaux and Liberty ball arranged for Friday, April 11, at the Willard, are rapidiy taking form. The first tableau is en- titled “The Courtship of Thomas Jef- ferson.” In it will be shown Martha Wales Skelton, & young widow of 19 formerly married to John Skelton of the Tidewater, Virginia. In this picture, Jefferson plays the. violin and Miss Margaret Sumner is at the harp. Miss Suniner is the daughter of Capt. Sum- ner of the Marine Corps, the first offi- cer to lose his life at Belleau Wood. The story of the tableau is roman- tic. The Widow Skelton was a belle and had many admirers. One night two young men were calling and while taking off their coats, they heard the strains of music. They glanced in through the doorway and saw Thomas Jefferson playing the violin and Mar- tha playing the her. Suddenly the lovely young widow looked up at her companion with such a radiant face turned toward the future President of the United States, that her two suitors stepped back into the hall. They shook hands and quietly withdrew, leaving the field open to the young musician. The original historic costume belong- ing to the third President of the United States will be worn in the tableaux. This scene is under the direction of the Southern Society. ‘The next tableau will show the portrait of Martha Jefferson Randolph, the beloved daughter of Thomas Jef- ferson. The part of the beautiful young woman will be taken by Mrs, Flora Masbn Nicholson, a direct descendant of the original of the painting. The third tableau is being arranged under the direction of Mrs. Albert N. Baggs. Debutantes of the season and previous seasons will carry the flags of the nations.
