While still on the subject OF ar
fists of various sorts. that certain
ly was an interesting group of ar
lists that Mr.. and Mrs. Walter
Tuckerman got together for the
concert they gave last Wednesday
afternoon at their beautiful home
in Edgemoor, Nd, for the beneht
of a wounded Belgian officer.
The short musical program was
given by Miss Elizabeth Howry,
Miss Elsa Louise Raner and George
Trowbridge Tittmann, who were con-
stantly applauded. and Miss Lucy
Brickenstein, as accompanist who
also won many plaudits. They are
all artists very familiar to US and
all extraordinarily clever. Though
the concert was a benefit affair II
was more like a smart private par
ty than anything of the sort I've
seen for some time. Among those
who motored out there for the con-
cert and for tea which followed
were: Lady Geddes, the Ambassa-
dor of Russia and Nine. Bakh-
meter, Nine. Francis Pulaski, Mrs
Russell Lefiingwell, Mrs. Frederick
Atherton, Col. and Mrs. Charles
Patterson, Miss Olyve Graef. Mrs.

MISS WALKER TO ARRIVE SOON
AT DANISH LEGATION.
There were two interesting arriV.
ais in town last week: Generai
Gregory Torcon of Armenia who,
as chief of the Armenian forces on
January 81, 1913, proclaimed at
Erzerum the independence OF Ar
menia and has been actively en-
gagged in the nationalistic move,
ment ever since. The other arrlval
was a woman diplomat who came
to this country the middle OF the
week on the Drottningholm OF the
Swedish-American Line. She Is MISS
Eleanor Walker, born in New
Rochelle, who will become a Sec
retary at the Danish Legation In
washington. She is the daughter
of T. Dart Walker, an illustrator,
who died in 1914.
Miss walker went to Denmark
with her mother, who was a Dane,
seventeen years ago. She became
Danish citizen two years ago In or
der to accept a position in the Dan
ish Foreign once. She is not a
suffragist, she said, although she
believes women should be given an
equal opportunity with men 10
serve their country.
Another dcbutante has taken 10
the stage-MyIa Morgan. daughter
of DR.. and Mrs. Gerry Morgan. who
is going in for the ''movics"; at
least SO was told last night. But
DR.. Morgan denies IL and says Myra
is leaving shortly With the family
for their sumner home. Evidently
father doesn't approve. And also
quite as evidert is the fact that
Myra has set her heart on the ca
reer of a motion picture star ana
sooner or later, will have her way.
And I think II will be sooner.
MARGARET CRossON LOCAL
BUD TO MAKE HER DEBUT
Then you know the presentation
by the Garrick Players tomorrow
evening of 'rParlor. Bedroom and
Bath" will be a notable occasion Tor
another Washington debutante, MISS
Margaret Blaine Crosson, a bud OF
last winter who has just turned
nineteen and who will make her
debut at the Garrick tomorrow eve
ming in a minor role OF the Bell
Swan comedy.
Miss erosion is Washington born
and bred. according to her own de-
position. She was pupil Of the
Academy of the Visitation for eight
years and for three years after that,
she studied at immaculate Seminary,
graduating only recently from st.
Mary of -the-Woods, in Indiana.
All her young life Miss Crosson
has had the urge toward a thes-
plan career, and when chance
threw her into contact with Mrs.
Sidney Drew II seemed that she
might take up q career In pictures
which Mrs. Drew offered. but pie
lures were 30 far from home and
the Garrick Players so near that
the Garrick was favored with Miss
Crosson's dramatic debut.
She made her social debut at a
dance at Rauseher's last winter
and Is q prominent figure at Junior
League parties and dances. She
also appeared in the Vanity Fair
fete last winter and only recently

gaged-is telling her friends today
for the irst time. She is the pretty
daughter Of Mr.. and Mrs. David
