DIDN'T DANCE
Because the Gerry Society Officers
Forbade It


NEW YORK, Dec. 3O.-Madeline, the
9-year-old daughter of Thomas A. Edi-
son, the inventor, was to have appeared
in a charity performance at Carnegie
Lyceum, but the Gerry Society officers
interfered. They informed the managers
of the entertainment that Miss Edison
would not be allowed to appear, so her
part was taken by an older girl.
The second half of the program con-
sisted of a performance of the Pied
Piper of Hamlin, in which parts were
taken by more than one hundred child
rem. Chorus songs and elaborate tab
leaux made up the greater part Of the
performance. Mr.. Edison's daughter was
to have appeared in what was really
little more than a walking part, only a
few dancing steps being intermingled
The managers of the entertainment were
incensed at the actions Of the Gerry
agents, as they had taken special care
to obtain Mr.. Edison's consent to the
appearance of his daughter in the tab
leaux.
At the rooms of the Gerry Society the
only explanation vouchsafed was that
the proposed dancing of Edison's daugh-
ter was clearly contrary to the law.
Mr.. Edison took the matter good
naturally. He said: my opinion is
that the Gerry Society is probably a
good and necessary institution, but its
agents do not always use horse sense,
as it appears in this case"
Mrs. Edison said: Commodore Gerry's
action was wholly uncalled for. If there
was the slightest idea that there could
be anything demoralizing I certainly
should not have let my daughter come
In the first place. Her dance is simply a
parlor Dance

Becomes q Beau

NEW YORK, Dec. 30 - William K.
Vanderbilt has blossomed out as a CO.
tillion leader, and society claps its gloved
hands in demure admiration. The inno-
walton means that the most sprightly
and by far the most popular member of
the Vanderbilt family has finally cast
beyond him the matrimonial griefs
which found their climax in the divorce
court. 1t means that the owner of superb
town and country houses and of the re-
nowned yacht Valiant has foresworn
sackcloth and ashes in favor of beau's
career. 1t means that the most eligible
"catch' in the marriage market has def
nitely placed himself in rivalry with the
bachelors. And society is at a loss to
name any bachelor who can compare
with Mr.. Vanderbilt in wealth, good
looks, jollity and personal charm.
Mr.. Vanderbilt's debut as cotillion
leader was made at surprise party
at the home Of Mr.. and Mrs. Henry
Sloane.
