MISS WILSON IS
PLAIN JESSIE
KENSINGTON
Pennsylvania Folk, Whom Daugh-
ter of President Aided, Like
White House Bride-to-Be,

PHILADELPHIA, July 19.-Ken-
sington is living over again the three
years that Miss Jessie Wilson, the
Presidents second daughter, whose
engagement to Francis Bowen Sayre,
of Bethlehem, has just been an
uounced. spent as a social worker in
the mill district.
To Kensington she is just Jessie,
and Jessie" she always will be, the
girl who travelled up and down mar
row streets on visits of mercy, who
attended the sick beds of mothers and
was a sister TO the working girls and
a pal of the short trousered boys who
gathered at the Lighthouse gymna-
stun.
Miss Wilson's work of social service
at the Lighthouse, 152 West Lehigh
avenue, brought her IN close contact
with the men, women and children
of the mill sections, and to all of
them she endeared herself by her
modesty. her unassuming manner, her
cordially and sincerity. The life of
the settlement she 1OIOWeu CLOSELY,
spending five days a week in routine
work and returning TO her home in
Princeton for the weekend.
Many a meal Jessie Wilson has
eaten at the uncovered tables of the
Lighthouse Restaurant with motor
men and millWOrkers for her COM
panions, never thinking herself a
whit better than the people who sur
rounded her.
Roast beef, fried potatoes, tomato
sauce, lemon pie, bread and butter,
and coffee-why should a Presidents
daughter want more? And she didn't
want more 80 when it was more
convenient to at eat the restaurant
than with Mr.. and Mrs. r. Porter
Bradford, the manager of the
Lighthouse, with whom she resided,
she ordered the menu chalked on the
wall of the restaurant, full roast
dinner for Is cents"
Miss Wilson has lately been asso-
ciated with the National Board of the
Young Women's Christian Associa-
ton, and has been active in work for
the betterment of factory girls.

and arouse a sort of titillating en-
thusiasm.
There are three acts of this ice
pageant, one called Winter Sport at
St. MOritz," the second a SOiree
in a Hotel de Luxe" and the third
a Japanese Festival In the sec
Ond, all the skaters and skating
principals wear gorgeous evening
gowns, as handsome as anything
even America could desire, and in
the japanese scene they are all XII
monOed and Japanesed in the most
bewildering riot of ColorS. Daz-
zling calcium is shed over the pro-
ceedings, and-weH, it is a sensa-
ton.
The best of it all is that you are
dining at the AdmiraIs Palast All
around the magnificent and impos-
ing ice field are tables where all
the Berlinese dine and drink their
beloved beer. 1t is not deliberately
expensive, as such a thing would be
in America. You pay your 80 or 90
cents for a seat. and your dinner is
less costly than 1t would be at an
ordinary restaurant.
And, believe me, it Is in this
moderation, this ungrasping cater
ing to the multitude, that the sue
cess Of such a giant scheme as the
AdmiraTs Palast lies.
But the ice ballet of itself is
marvel. In addition to little Char
Iotte. who danced with a sort of
Mordkin, called Max Feist-on
skates-there was the gorgeous
Dallerup, whose pyrotechnical skat-
ing made one dizzy And there was
Harry Paulsen. There were episodes
on skis that was delightful; there
were humorous incidents. there
were MarCelines and big bears, and
food not only for adults but for
children. Not once did Filtration
in St. Moritz" drag. The uneXpect-
ed was always happening. one felt
like the song that chirps What Is
Coming. Who Shall say" The
whole thing was joy.
One dimes slowly and epicureanly
in the German style. There is no
gulping of food or rushing of drink.
One takes ones time, sitting round
that gorgeous fee field. which is
cool and delicious, and quite unlike
the feverish atmosphere one finds
in most crowded resorts. All along
the balcony were hundreds of din
ers in small reserved private boxes
but all the dining and winning Cor
beer-ing) never once interfered
with this exultant ice ballet.
That gripped one. and dinner was
really nothing more than a CASTRO
nomiC accompaniment. Imagine
the Madison Square Garden filled
with people dining around its arena,
and you may get some faint idea
of the imposing Admirars Palast.
But Little Charlotte" was the
benign star of it all, and through
out there wasn't one solitary note
Of ragtimel Not one!

Marvellous Star OF Ice
Ballet Gives Berlin Thrills

BERLIN, July 19.-If you can i'm
agine Pavlova with all her wiles,
witcheries and Baccahanalian aban-
don, leaping. bounding. pirouetting
and'rotating on ice skates, you may
have some faint idea Of the amazing
and beautiful Charlotte Oelschlaser
known in Berlin as Little Char
lotte"-whom l saw last night in
the finest entertainment I've viewed
on this side OF the pond-the ice
ballet by Leo Barteuschek, at the
Admirars Palast.
Everything that an agile and al
most supernaturally graceful Terp-
sichorean artist can do with dainti-
ly slippered feet little Charlotte
does with tiny, glittering ice skates
on her diminutive tootsies. The eff
feet Of it is positively bewildering.
The smooth, gliding and velvety
sensation of the ice sheet is abso-
lutely unlike anything that the or
binary dancer has to offer, and the
astounding versatility>of the skat-
erine-who can do more on the
knives of skates than Pavlova can
do without them (and / make that
statement unhesitatingly)-
a rapt attention.
Little Charlotte is an awfullv
pretty girl
She has long, blonde, un-wiggy
hair that in the dazzling light shed
upon the huge ice arena of the Ad-
mirars Palast looks like spun silk;
she owns a fascinating smile quite
unlike the smirk that won't come
off go popular with the average
dancing lady, and she has youth,
effervescence and a sort Of un-
trammeled gayety of manner that
are positively irresistible. She is
thin. supple, lissome and-per-
fectly astonishing. l take off my
hat to her.
She Is the finest artist of her
kind that l have seen, and Berlin
loves her. After viewing the work
last night, had the coy, comforta-
BILE. we'll satisfied sensation that an
astonishing feat always induces. l
felt glad that l had come to Ber-
lin, for neither in Paris nor in Lon
don is there anything family to
compare with the fascination of lit
tie Charlotte If her nationality
were otherwise, 1 should glory in
calling her little Charlotte russo!

wearing such things as our giddiest

finishes the costume.
The other fair Parisienne carries a
parasOl Of white brOderie Anglaise
inset with rare venise lace and with
three-iuc edge Of black velvet.
The black and white color scheme
continues in the shoes, which have
patent leather Yamps and instep
strappings Of white suede. And the
gown itself is "A creation Of shadow

beads for further garniture, The
gown has the new cross front
drapery that is suggestive of a sur
pliCe when found on a waist, but
brings to mind nothing so much as
harem trousers when found on the
skirt The only things Of simplicity
in this costume are the old fash
toned mitts that cover the arms and
the big fun blown rosette thrust
into the girdle.

the ad in the Eagle.
Today he received what he thought
was letter through the Bryan post

Having taken some time to examine
and compare with other dictionaries
of the same class. am glad to ex-
press my high appreciation OF "The
Modern English Illustrated Diction-
ary,"
It's introductory articles on langu-
age, grammar, etc, are charmingly
luminous, TO be so brief It's illus
trations are particularly fine and well
selected. Its appended lists and Ia
bles are highly interesting and in
structive, especially that which gives
gist of our latest census. The COM
bination OF good type and paper Of
fers pleasing page. The mechani-
cal work IL good; the only error not
ed, the miscollectlon in the headings
of automobile and aviation terms.
The dictionary proper is ample for
all ordinary use; and for such use. Is
more convenient than an unabridged
edition. Though having both at hard
/ use the smaller more than the larg-
er book. In short, the Modern Eng
lish dictionary is a splendid work, ex-
ceptionalIy so at its low selling price.
/ commend it heartily.
