B—4 #x K H ' ospital B i B An Afternoon of] Music Given for Clinic. [ N AFTERNOON OF MU- A SIC” was presented yes- terday under the auspices of a committee of the ‘Women's Board of the George Wash- ington University Hospital. The en-| tertainment was arranged under the | chairmanship of Mrs. Edward Goring | Bliss and Mrs. W. H. Collier to add | to the funds for new equipment for | the clinic and free dispensary of the | hospital. A large audience filled the| ball room and hall of the Sulgrave | Club, where the concert was given, to hear Mme. Malda Fani d'Aulby, so- prano, and Miss Sylvia Meyer, harp- ist of the National Symphony Or- chestra. These artists were accom= panied by Mr. Edward J. Henne- berry for the singer and Mrs. Quintz Jensen Frey for the harpist. Tele phone Quartet composed of Mr. | James R. Adamson and Mr. George | A. Small, tenors; Mr. Marion B.| Reynolds, baritone, and Mr. Ray- mond B. Leavitt, bass, added much | to the enjoyment of the afternoon | with their a capella singing of spirit- | uals and Southern songs. Mme. d’Aulby, being enthusiastically applauded after her last number, starting her encore from ‘“behind the | scenes” and strolled leisurely into the ball room singing a fascinating flower song. As she walked she graciously presented gay Spring blossoms from the basket which she carried. She reached as many as possible and where the guests were too far away to reach she gracefully tossed a handful of the blossoms, literally showering her listeners. “Everything was donated” for the occasion, according to a brief speech of appreciation made by Mrs. Cabot Stevens, chairman of the program | for the benefit, Mrs. Henry Alvah | Strong having generously provided the | place for the concert. Following the | program tea was served in the dining | room and an informal reception was | held by Mrs. Bliss, who presented | the guests to the soloists. Mrs. Bliss | wore a smart costume of black, a| Russian biouse of brocaded crepe and & close-fitting black hat, with a spray of gardenias at her throat relieving the severity of the black. Mme. d’Aulby was & picture in pale gray chiffon, with which she wore a halo- effect hat of magenta, and Miss | Meyer's graceful rose-color chiffon gown made an effective contrast. Presiding at the tea table were Mrs. Vincent Miles, Mrs. Carl A. Droop | and Miss Pauletta Guffey, while Miss | Louise Alexander, in a graceful and | becoming gown of pearl-gray chiflon,} and those who assisted her as ushers, alded in the dining room. Miss Dor- othy Tirrell, also assisting as an usher, wore a costume of heavenly blue; her tiny round hat, having blue flowers about the edge, was tilted at a chic angle. Mrs. Delos A. Blodgett, who was, with her daughter, Mrs. Henry Par- sons Erwin, held an impromptu re- | ception wherever she stopped, for she | has taken no part in society since the injury last Summer and illness of her sister, Mrs. Charles G. Matthews, fol- lowed closely by the sudden death of their brother, Mr. Samuel H. Peck. | Mrs. Blodgett returned recently from & short stay in her Winter home, at Miami, where she went with Mr. and Mrs. Erwin and their children. Miss Madeliene Austin, who has re- turned to Washington for the Spring | season, also was with Mrs. Erwin. | Miss Austin was a debutante in | Washington not many years ago, but | in recent years has lived in New York | and abroad.
