UNIVERSITY CLUB
ENTERTAINS LADIES.

The University Clubs party on
Wednesday evening-"an evening
with women in executive Offices
had an interest almost historic, for 1t
was the first time this really extraor-
binary group Of brilliant women has
been thus brought together. and 1t
was the first time that the club has
ever done anything OF this sort. Miss
Mabel Boardman, District Commits
sioner; Mrs. Helen H. Gardener. Civil
Service Commissioner: Mrs. Annette
Abbott Adams, Assistant District At
torney; Mrs. Clara Sears Taylor. Rent
Commissioner: Miss Kathryn Sellers,
Judge of the Juvenile Court; Mrs.
Frances Y. Axtell, chairman United
States Employees Compensation Com
mission: Miss Mary Anderson, di-
rector Of the Woman's Bureau. and
Miss Julia Lathrop. director OF the
Children's Bureau-each had a few
clever and pointed words to say.
Each was CARRIED in her best, and.
take a society editors word for II,
they measured up mighty well from
tUc punt VI We" VI SoOu tiotiNS ohe
feminine charm as we'll as brains.
The large hall Of the club. in which
lectures, dances and other entertain
ments are held. was crowded to
capacity. A reception followed the
program and this was followed in
turn by a supper party for the speak
ers and specially honored guests. In
memory Of the occasion it was ar
ranged to have a group picture taken
of this "women's cabinet" and this is
to be hung at the University club.
=
Another notable gathering Of last
week was the reception at the head
quarters of the National Women's
Party for Mrs. Pethick-Lawrence, Of
militant suffrage fame. This brilliant
Englishwoman seems to have passed
on from being a militant suffragist to
being a militant pacifist. She is urg-
ing women the country over-in fact
the world over-to form a little peace
league OF their own. and steal Presi-
dent Wilson's thunder by abolishing
war. She is a good. looking woman
with a nice English voice and was
very picturesquely gotten up in
queer drapy oriental looking thing OF
dull blue and gold, rather a marked
contrast to Mrs. Wainwright, Admiral
wife. who seemed to be
the presiding genius OF the meeting.
or to Alice Paul, who is the presiding
genius Of the National Woman's
Party.
Everyone who went to hear Mrs.
awrence, and tho rooms were crowd
ed to suffocation. was invited to Join
this movement for world peace and
incidentally to add to the funds Of tho
woman's Party and to subscribe to
the suffragist and to buy Doris
Stevens book, Jailed for Freedom"
The most successful little inviter
was Anita Pollitzer. Of South Caro-

sale. A booth will be provided for
an exhibition Of the attractive prod
ucts of the industrial department

trees laden with gifts will spring up
for the children-as well as for their
elders.
The Child Welfare Association. Of
which Miss Mary Gwynn Is head
Is cooperating with Neighborhood
House and will have its own display.
So will the Working Boys Home. OF
whose board Mrs. Randall Hagner is
president. and the Girl Scouts.
There will be a tearoom. over
which some OF the most distinguished
women in Washington will preside.
and gypsy encampment and ice
cream booth will be popular features.
And as a grand finale there will be
a ball each night. the second one a
