" PENWOMEN FETE ENVOY AND DANCER Minister Davila and Ruth St. Denis Speak at Authors’ Annual Breakfast. The Minister of Rumania, Charles A. Davila, and the world-famous exponent of the art of terpsichore, Ruth St. Denis, were two of & group of distin- guished personalities to speak at the Annual Authors Breakfast of the Na- tional League of American Pen Women, yesterday at the Willard Hotel. ‘The Rumanian Minister, who is the son of one of the foremost playwrights of his country, spoke on a subject which he is well informed, “The Ru- In Rumania the government W the showing of classical plays sev- eral of the country's theaters, and the nations are also produced in Rumanian theaters as part of the education of the peoeple, he added. Neglect of Legitimate Stage. Mr, Davila deplored the fact, how- ever, that despite the sponsoring of classics by the government, there is a decided tendency in his country, as in America, to neglect the legitimate the ter and classical productions, for mo: tion pictures. Attired in a graceful gown with ultra- smart lines, wearing a becoming black hat with drooping brim, Miss Ruth St. Denis, in a brief talk proved herself g:ite as accomplished an orator as & ncer. Although Miss St. Denis had selected as her topic, “The Dance and Religion,” she devoted several minutes to an em- phatic denunciation of modern fashions for women. “One of the responsibilities of the classic dance,” she said, “Is to see we dressed more beautifully. We can't ut up with the atrocities we are to wear. I think,” she continued, all colleges should have a chair of dress and manners.” Miss St. Denis then launched into the real subject of her talk, the dance inspiration toward spirituality. o art can be really great,” she de- , “which cuts itself off from its original source—its religious conscious ness.

At an age when most women are content to take a well earned Trest, Mrs. Charles A. Goldsmith, at 60, is K:p‘rlnx to take a more active interest n ever in civic and philanthropic activities of Wasl n. ‘Tonight, at the Mayflower Hotel, the most prominent Jewish citizens of Wi will gather to -pay her tribute on her birthday anniversary. At the same time there will be launched the united Jewish campaign for $60,000 for relief of European Jewry and for rehabilitation work in Palestine. Mrs. Goldsmith is vice chairman of this drive and in her honor the campaign slogan of “One thousand dollars for each year of Mrs. Goldsmith’s life” has been adopted. To most people it will come as a surprise that Mrs. Goldsmith has reach- ed the age of 60, for she has the ap- pearance and energy of a much younger ‘woman., Paid High Tributes. Eight years ago, upon completion of the campaign for a building fund for the Hebrew Home for the Aged, a din- ner attended by several hundred friends of Mrs. Goldsmith celebrated her fifty- second birthday anniversary at Raus- cher’'s Restaurant. At that time Cuno H. Rudolph, then president of the Board « Ystrict Commissioners, paid her_the ing tribute: “Repres:n.... as she does the highest typs of womanhood of the National Clp‘lhl,h lhemhlgh t:glx{lplhn:ntu)"o‘umlri paying her grat acknow] ent of her labors of love for her fellow- beings is most fitting and I know I voice the sentiments of our best citizens when I express hope that she may be :rued to continue her benevolent ac- vities for many years to come.” At the same banquet, Alexander Wolf, prominent local attorney, said of her: “From childhood to old age—from the Foster Home to the Hebrew Home for the Aged, is a ministering she angel. children of the Fos- The old people of the Home fcr the Aged bless hér as they would a deserving daughter, and the poor people of Wash- ington consider her their friend and protecter.” Mrs. Goldsmith had bullt up this well deserved reputation over a long period of years during which she, prac- tically single-handed, had organized and maintained the Hebrew Charities. She investigated all the cases herself and raised most of the money to be dispensed to the poor and indigent Jew- ish families of the city, contributing much out of her own resources. In ad- dition, she had taken upon herself the task of raising funds for the Hebrew Home for the Aged. ‘Widened Scope of Work.

She is also president of the United Hebrew Relief Society, financial secre- tary of the Jewish Foster Home, direc- tor of the Travelers Aid Society, direc- tor of the Jewlsh Welfare Board, and a member' of the District Employment Council. z Mrs. Goldsmith is constantly besieged to_accept appointments to various civic offices and committees. but does not ac- cept unless she is prepared to take an active part in the undertaking. For many years she has been called upon to icipate in relief drives of various inds. She unhesitatingly accepted the position of vice chairman of the United Jewish Campaign and chairman of the Special Gifts Co ittee, convinced of the seriousness of the situation con- fronting the Eastern European Jewry, where thousands are reported starving as a result of the economic depression that has swept Europe. Lauded By Commissioners. The present Board of District Com- missioners congratulating Mrs. Gold- smith, has issued the following state- | ment: | “It is a pleasure for the Commission- | ers of the District of Columbia to ex- press their congratulations and good wishes to Mrs. Charles A. Goldsmith on her 60th birthday. She has long been & most effective worker in the public and private charity and welfare organiza- tions of our city. No committee is con- sidered complete without her name.

One of 15 children, six of whom are still living, Mrs, Goldsmith early de- veloped a social consciousness and a de- sire to alleviate distress among the poor and afflicted.

Her in- terest in the work has by no means ceased, but she has now more time to devote to her other philanthropic in- terests. Mrs. Goldsmith has been one of the most, enthusiastic supporters and hard- est workers for tha Community Chest. In the last campaign during one of her appeals for workers gor the cause she made the following plea, which is in- dicative of her philosophy of life: “May I say to you that I found DON Don't “go to war” with a cold, much as you hate the cold!
