favored recipients of beautiful hospital
ity bestowed by such a generous host
and hostess in ''the Spring Festival OF
the Poetry Society of America
The event took place on May q. The
scene was the superb estate and home OF
Mr.. and Mrs. Samuel Untermyer at
Greystone -on-the-Hudson. The receivers
of the hospitality were the members OF
the Poetry Society of New York and
their special friends.
II was Just q year ago that Mr.. and
Mrs. Untermyer issued their first invita-
tion to the Poetry society TO come to
Greystone-on-the-Hu Hudson as guests Of
honor Zach member of the Poetry So
eiety received an engraved invitation,
and an accompanying card stating that a
special train, provided by Mr., and Mrs.
tInternnyer, would convey the party from
the Grand Central station to Greystone.
half an hour away.
The day was ideally perfect, the event
a memorable one. This year the courtesy
was again repeated, and the date was
May Is. May q and May % were bleak
OF sky. with falling rain and unkind
Winds: but, as # in appreciation of the
generous and beautiful spirit shown by
the great-hearted Untermyers towards
the Poets of America" the skies on
May % were like sapphires; the sun was
a combination of liquid diamonds and
topaz, and the breeze seemed blown from
Eden.
The poets, in their best "bibs and tuck
ers," were an astonishingly handsome
CONGREGATION OF men and women. num-
bering more than 300. Automobiles
awaited them at the station and con-
veyed them, along scenes of bewildering
beauty which distinguish the UntermyeT
grounds, to the palatial mansion over
looking the Hudson. Tea was served on
the balconies Then there were visits
through the grounds and through the

Spring Festival of Poetry Society
of America

After that there was q gathering of the
clans in the great music hall to listen for
thrce-quarters of an hour to q musical
program given by Petruccio Busoni. So
compelling, 80 entrancing--and so mas
terful was the music that the proverbial
pin might have been heard to drop while
this great genius entertained his audi
ence with the compositions of Bach.
Chopin and Llszt, After that a
surnptuous repsSt was served. Special
trains conveyed the poets and their
friends back TO the city.
1t was a scene and an occasion which
must remain as long as memory lasts
in the mind of every fortunate guest.
Not since the days OF old Greece have
poets been so honored and so appreciated
by people of wealth and leisure. 1t il
doubtful II in any land In the last CEN
fury a parallel event can be cited.
II is to be regretted that a hostess who
has shown slsch thoughtfnness, such
courtesy. such consideration and such
llberallty should have one embarrassed
moment. due to tho thoughtlessness of
a few of the guests On each card Of in
vitation, following the name of the one
invited, was written the words. and
guests"
Last year fully half OF the members
gave a friend the happiness Of partioi-
pating in this spring festival So entc-
ing and delightful was the occasion that
few poets this year overstepped their
privileges and asked two. three and even
four guests to accompany them TO Grey
stone instead of the one the card of in
y1tation indicated; ard no forewarning
was sent to tho hostesA
In consequence. more than twenty-five
unexpected guests appeared when the
covers had been laid. That was a diff
cult situation for any hostess, and the
dolicacy and poise and tact OF Mrs Un-
termyer saved the situation -
Greystons-on-the-Hud seems some
thing Of misnomer in May time; for
It leaves upon the memory recollections
of brilliant suniit skies, sapphire waters.
