3n the Social @orla

By MAUD NsDOUGALL

Marshall the group of dancers from
Chalif's Russian Ballet, gave a spe-
cial performance of dances which
proved a delightful feature OF a
delightful evening. The creamy
white walls of the handsome ball
room, with the many palms which
seem to be part of its permanent
furniture, and the flags that were
uad for the evenings decoration.
made a beautiful setting for quite
the most spectacularly picturesque
gathering of the winter. The floor
was voted perfect" by the young
people, and the music-the Myers
Davis Orchestra supplied it-seem-
ed to leave nothing to be desired
except the supper, which was in this
instance forthcoming at the ap-
pointed time, and an entirely ade-
quate one.
Perhaps not as many of the guests
that had been hoped wore the Rus

Mrs. Fessenden &eserve and her

a gown of pink and silver brocsde,
and her headdress set with pearls and
turquoises held a veil of golden gauze
in graceful folds. She wore pearl and
diamond ornaments. Her daughter
wore a gown of silver and silver lace,
with a diamond and pearl kakoschnik

BANJOS SOLACE
FOR SOLDIERS
Legless Yank Fills Street
car with Melodies Of
Southland.

All one needs to be happy is 10 have
ten perfectly good fingers and
banjo. At least that apparently was
the philosophy OF one Walter Reed
Hospital patient who was on liberty
leave" Tuesday afternoon.
He sat hunched up in one corner OF
the Takoma Park car on his way TO
the movies with two brand-new
crutches and one wobbly left leg
tucked in the smallest space possible
in an overcrowded car. His friends,
too, were of the foreign service type
who didn't need a gold chevron to
shout the fact to a dubious public.
Their badges were empty coat sleeves
and legs that were too short, or that
no longer bent in the regular way at
the knee or were entirely missing.
They all wore blue cords of the infan-
try as hat bands and it was easy to
picture them as pals" over there,
who had been over the top. met their
men, and rested ir foreign hospitals
together. At least that was what
their free comradeship expressed
He Was from Alabama.
The musically- tuned fingers OF the
lad in the corner just couldn't re-
frain from lingering the soft strains
on the little old ribbon-trimmed
banjo he tenderIy carried, such as
one sees in every room of a college
dormitOry, SO out from the tumble
OF crunching car wheels and the
clang of the bell of the motorman
sweet sounds of the South fIoated.
One didn't need to be told that the
lad came from Alabama" 1t was
there in every lilt of the darky
tunes he thrummed. Magnolia trees
in the moonlight. darkeys in the
cotton fields. and the old plantation
in the softness of a Southern sum-
mer night, were painted as the low
strains filled the car.
The boy had forgotten Chateau
Thierry and the raid to the enemy's
lines, over shell-torn land, and the
ribbons on his uniform, and the leg
that was gone. He had ten fingers
still. and those were quite enough
to play his beloved melodies.

Further informa ton is to be sought
tomorrow. Acting Secretary OF state
Polk. Secretary of the Treasury Glass
and a representative of the Food Ad-
ministration were questioned by the
committee on these points:
Has the United States any definite
understanding with the allies as TO
their part in financing the feeding OF
stricken peoples?
Is the urgency of the President 5
call for money partly occasioned by
the canceling of huge pork orders by
England, thus throwing back on
American packers a great quantity OF
their meat2
How much money has the United
States spent. through the President
in relief work in Russia and else
where?
Is any plan contemplated to get the
500, coo. 600 back or is it TO be a gift?
Committee members said they got
little new information on any of these
points.
The committee discussed an amend
ncnt requiring this government to
make some definite arrangements for
allied participation in the feeding be
fore our money is spent. An amend
ment requiring detailed reports OIL
the expenditure of the money praC-
Iically was agreed On.
