WORE GRECIAN CLOTHES IN THE
 BOSTON STORM
THE DUNCANS TOOK A TAXI-CAB
 TO CAMBRIDGE.
BoSton Herald.)

Barefoot, except for the thinnest of sandals, a man and woman waded ankle-deep in Boston snowdrifts last night They wore Grecian garments that came considerably short of an kledeep and allowed the hdwling bliz- gard to swirl snow against their bare legs up almost to the knees. Their arms were bare, their necks were bare, their heads were bare. And they and the weather was delightful
 They, were MT. and Mrs. Raymond Duncan, whose little son Menelkas was detained lately by the New York police on a charge of being too thinly clad, whose sister and sister-in-law, is the dancer, Isadore, and who came to Sanders theatre, Cambridge, last about Hellenic music.
 Out of the train from New York fur-clad folk hopped to the platform of the Back Bay station at last night. The fur-clad folk shivered turn ed up their collars, stamped their feet Out from the train hoped also Ray mond Duncan and his wife Penelope without furs and without shiver.
 They waited in the icy draught to have their pictures taken, they waded through the snow to the sidewalk; they stood in the storm smiling and they protested-With never chilblain Their creamy white robes Tapped in the gale-they each wear one outer garment of thin stuff and one under garment of thin stuff.
 Snow SWirled down on Mrs. Dun cans head mantle and Raymond's long brown hair that falls to his shoulders. Snow powdered their bare arms and necks and hands. Snow drifted against their bare toes, till the, crowd of spec tators got cold feet. But not the Duncans. They took taxicab in lieu of a Grecian chariot and hurried to Cambridge.
 On the way over MT. Duncan en- frightened his hearers thus:
 '"The ancient Greek dances, as Isa- dore dances them, should be taught as part of the training at Harvard Uni- versity. The song the grape pressers sing determines the taste of the wine, If the grape pressers change their song, the wine vii taste different
 MT. Duncan did not say so, but it is easily seen that if, instead of the light Grecian area that produces the light Grecian wine these grape pres sers should sing @Die Wacht am Rhine," the result would be pure German lager, just as "Comin Thro' the Rye,'' would result in Scotch whis key and Drink to Me Only With Thine Eyes'' in lemonade.
 Before the lecture MT. and Mrs. Dun- can chatted a few moments with Prof. Spaulding. He agreed with them that people nowadays did wear too many clothes Tn the bright light MT. and Mrs. Duncan were seen to better ad- vantage than out in the snowstorm.
 "Penelope'-Mr. Duncan never calls her Mrs. ."-was seen to have a pale face with the regular features of the Ionian. She is a native Greek. Her brown hair was plaited in a number of flat braids and brought down smoothly on each side of her fore head, then tucked under the brown mantle on her head. Round the throat was a row of silver pendants, set with amethysts.
 It was seen that MT. Duncan's irobe was fringed at the hem, and had a green stripe round the hem and the shoulders. It was seen that Mrs. Dun can has extremely pretty little feet and hands. It was seen that MT. Dun cans face is very thin and dark, qualities accenuated by the mass of straight black hair, with which it is framed.
 Their home is on a mountain top near Athens. Thsy have grapevines and goats and sheep. They make all their household utensils, even to iron things and pottery. They wear their robes three days and then wash them And when they are in American cit ies, the water is black.
