day meeting.
SWEDISH scULPTREss
FIAsCEE OF MAJOR ToTTEy.
After the speculations as TO the
probable loss of Col. William Eric
Fowler from the all too short list OF
Washington bachelors who entertain
deIightfuly. IL was indeed a blow to
society when the engagement of Maj
George Oakley Totten. tr.. to Mrs.
Vicken Won Post was announced last
Tuesday.
While there had been rumors con-
corning Col Fowler's probable mar
riage-rumors, by the way. still un-
confirmed--the engagement of Major
Totten was not even Suspected until
Mr.. and Mrs. William Won Post of
Sweden announced that their sister
Mrs. Vicken Won Post. is the fancee
OF the American bachelor. who has
held one OF the most enviable posi-
tons in the National Capital.
Mrs. Won Post has been visiting in
Washington for about a month and
has been I'm this country only two
months. She is young and OF the
lovely blonde type OF beauty that be-
longs to high-bred Scandinayians. She
has been at a number of receptions
and garden parties, and 1t was only
last week that met her at the wo-
mans National Foundation fete,
which she attended with freinds. She
has charm of manner and ! wanted
10 talk with her, for she challenges
attention. One instinctively knows
that she is parsonage and wonders
In what artistic line she may happen
TO excel.
When her engagement to Major
Totten became known the nrst ques-
tion was, is she painter or a sing
err for no one in Washington is more
OF lover of the arts or the possessor.
OF better medium of expression thans
the architect who through his profess
sion touches the whole world of
beauty. So II was pleasant to learn
that Mrs. Won Post is a sculptor of ex-
attainment, She has done
much noteworthy work. and has
achieved great success In modelling
figures TO be fired in porcelain One
Of her successful portrait studies is a
bust OF Ira Nelson Morris. American
minister to Sweden.
