We wondered what on earth Carma

Too. we saw, surrounded by
crowd the century's greatest violinist,
who as Beulah can testify, seldom if
ever praeticed, our own Ida Ruth. Bah
saws she has engagements booked up
until June of 'S3.
The scene was next shifted to Eu-
ropa where We saw many tourists sur
yeying the ruins of the war OILS. I
never shall be thankful enough that ]
finished history before had to learn
the names of all those battles. There
was one little band, davotees of art,
who were surveying the places where
great masterpieces had been. We
recognized Florence Seemann, who is
an ardent Futurist. Eunice Frazier. the
well known cubist, and Edna Hunt,
the patron of the circulfstic arts.

That committee which was being
nominated was for the purpose of
buildinsa boat house as a fitting me-

lives in the construction OF the dam.
The work was given to contractor
Josephine Russell who has been most
successful. With feminine logic this
same boat house was to sbe used as
base for fishing expeditions.
Big Ranch is Next.
We were next transferred to Cali
fornia where Perrie Beach's immense
fruit ranch was shown. :, Perrie, the
ever thoughtful. allows the extra
rooms in her mammoth home to be
used by oyer-worked assistant editors
of every degree. OF all modern

noblest. The picture showed Perrie
serving tea at an informal at home
which she was giving for Kathrine
Blom, her guest. Katherine was just
home from Japan where she had been
studying Japanese prints and purchas-
ing them for her brothers galleries.
Ruth Crane was spending the winter
