Fair Ones Make Press
Club Cabaret a Success

Those members Of the National Press
Club who behaved so decisevly when 1t
was first proposed to admit the fair sex
to the roof garden and who fought so
hard to defeat the measure, are now
glad that they were not allowed to have
their way. for last night the first cab
aret of the summer was staged on the
roof and the ladies turned out In full
force to see the fun. 1t was, indeed, a
merry time, and when the last song had
been sung, and the last round of tink-
ling glasses had been disposed of, all
agreed that the success Of the perform
ance was largely due to the presence
of the fair ones.
Arthur McCreight, the ragtime artist,
knocked out the piano in two rounds and
went back to shake hands with the in
strument while playing an enchore. Ar
thur johnson and Ray Morgan gave
some banjo selections that br ought forth
enthusiastic applause, while Arthur Jett,
George O'Connor, Matt Horn and Daniel
Dillon contributed songs.
