large numbers on the opening day of

Opera House last night, that there was
a comparatively smai representation of
the fashionable world at the Garden
yesterday. From to-day on, however
there is every indication that all the
sessions. especially those of the after
noon and evening, will be we'll attended
Yesterday marked the thirty third
opening of the exhibition, and the pro-
ceeds this year go to the United War
Work Campaign. Women in nurses
costumes, with long white wells, sold
programmes, among them being Mrs.

Among those seen in the boxes, arena
seats and walking about the promenade

McSweeney, chairman of the green's
committee of the Country Club of At
lantic City, dropped check for $1,000
into one of the glass bowls ut the

~, with twelve professional golfers
and one amateur contesting, was won
by Alex Campbell, of the Country Club
of Baltimore, with total of 1a9
strokes
Four of the players broke eighty Oh
both rounds. but while there were
times when it looked as if two of the
players had a chance TO beat Campbell
for the medal, ne was never headed,
and won with margin of five strokes.
His round of 72 in the morning was
y splendid bit of work, and his total
of "a strokes coming home was not
beaten during the day. Fotheringham
had the best out round III the morn
ing with u total of 81.
Mrs. Henry McSweeney had charge
of the collections, and she was ably
assisted by her daughter. Miss Eliza
beth, Mrs. Edwin Frank, Mrs. Carroll
Knauer and Miss Ruby Murray. The
celebration of the signing of the srmis-
tice sadly interfered with the attend
ance, but in the afternoon there was
a fair gallary.
Campbell had total of twenty par
holes and two birds, while Clarence
Hackney had twenty par holes and one
bird. He had a string of nine straight
par holes on his home journey 'in the
morning. In the afternoon he had seven
