Court Permits Beaulev to
Amend dDivorceComplaint
Appellate Divisions Ruling.
Forces Artist ia Prove
Case on New Charges

William J. Beauley, an artist, whose
decree Of divorce from Mrs. Harriet
W. Beauley, who conducts the Beauley
School of Expressive Arts, at Arrochar,
S. l., was set aside by the Supreme
Court on the ground of fraud, received
permission from the Appellate Division
yesterday to amend his complaint Mr..
Beauley was placed in an embarrassing
position by the setting aside of his
divorce decree, as he had remarked
after obtaining the decree
Mrs. Beauley's defense to the suit
was that she was not guilty of the
charges made by her husband and that
she had been placed in a compromising
position by her husband and detectives
employed by him so that Mr.. Beauley
might have evidence on which to bring
his action. Upon her evidence of the
alleged "frame-up" Justice Lehman set
aside the decree and ordered a new
trial.
This ruling also was upheld bv the
Appellate Division, which also relieved
the second Mrs. Bcauley from her en-
barrassing position by providing that
she shall be recognized as the wife of
the artist pending the outcome of the
second trial.
Mr.. Beauley will now be compelled
to prove his case on other charges of
misconduct made against his wife,
which the amended complaint will
contain.

Lady Codiva Upsets Village
As Factions War Over TIGHTS
lo Wear Em or Not TO Wear EN- Question for Art
lists Colony as Preparations Are Made for New
Years Carnival, but She Won't Have Short Hair

There's much ado about nothing in
the TINT and the other aeries OF
art and mstheticism along Macdougal
Street. Likewise, there's much ado
about almost nothing, and just al
present it's rather difficult to perceive
which ado has the raspberry on the
other.
1t all centers in the Greenwich Viii
lage Carnival, which is to be held on
New Years Eve, for the first time in
three years, in Webster Hall, and q
decision to have Lady Godiva ride
through the hall on u milk-white steed
at the stroke of 12, as symbol of the
dainty pink freshness of the incoming
New Year.
When this announcement was made
yesterday, however, there Immediately
arose heated controversy. which
within an hour divided the village into
two schools of thought on the sub
ject and resulted in deadlock of
throbbing and poignant bitterness. The
question at dispute is:
Shall Lady Godiva ride strictly as
she did through Coventry, or shall she
accede to the conventionalities of
modern decorum and appear in tights ?"
The anti-tight school, headed by
Betty Collins and Sam Schwartz. is
insistent that the lady shall stick to
history even to the minutest detail for
the sake of accuracy if nothing else.
Besides, say the Collins-Schwar ad
herents, there is the point of true art
to be considered, and where would a
New Yorker go looking for true art if

Bedtime Stories
Mrs. Peters Happy Christmas
By Thornton w. Burgess
Oh, the blessed joy of giving!
That Is aVhat makes life avorth
livin9!
Farmer Browns Bow.

1T was Christmas morning Little
Mrs. Peter Rabbit, she who used to be
little Miss Fuzzytail, didn't know it.
She knew nothing about Christmas.
This day of gladness wasn't day of
gladness for her at all. 1t was a dav
of worry and sadness. You see, Mrs.
Peter was all alone in the dear Old
Brlar-patch. Peter hadn't come home
from the Green Forest. He should
have returned at break of day But
he hadn't. There had been no sign
OF him and Mrs. Peter was sure
something dreadful had happened to
him.
So she sat all alone in the dear Old
Brlar-patch looking across to the
Green Forest. To timid little Mrs.
Peter 1T looked dark and gloomy. 1t
looked like place where dreadful
things could happen. She saw iollv
bright, round Mr.. Sun appear above
the tops of the trees and climb higher
and higher IN the blue, blue sky, do
ing his best to take away the chill
Jack Frost had left in the air. But
Mr. Sun brought no warmth to the
heart of little Mrs. Peter. Instead,
the higher he climbed the more wor-
ried became little Mrs. Peter.
Every one else was happy. Tommy
Tit the Chickadee stopped to tell her
OF the goodies he and Drummer the
Woodpecker and Yank Yank the Nut
hatch and Sammy Jay and Chatterer
the Red Squirrel and Happy Jack the
Gray Squirrel had found spread for
them in the Old Orchard by Farmer
Browns Boy Tommy was so happy
and so excited he almost suffered.
But Mrs. Peter didn't half listen
Hardly haf'Tommy Tit flown away
when Farmer Browns Boy himself
appeared tramping across the Green
Meadows. He was whistling and he
was headed straight for the dear Old
Briar-patch. Mrs. Peter hid in the
very middle Of it. Farmer Browns
Boy was there for only few minutes
and then tramped off toward the Smil-
ing Pool, and he was still whistling
merrlly as if his errand made him
very happy. 1t did, for he was on his
way to leave some slices of carrot
and an apple or two where Jerry
Muskrat could find them.
Mrs. Peter crept back to the edge
OF the dear Old Briar- patch and there
she found such a feast as she had not
seen for many long day. There was
half cabbage, two or three apples.
some slices of turnip, carrot or two
and little bundle of sweet clover
hay. 1t was Farmer Browns Bows
Christmas gift.
But none of these things brought
joy to little Mrs. Peter. She hardly

not in Greenwich Village? And on
New Years Eve, too?
Equally adamant in their opinions
are the pro fighters, commanded by
Polly Holiday and Charley Small.
They're not prissy or narrow-mindcd
they say but they do feel that the ex-
istence of most nartistic and unap-
prcciativc New York Police Department.
should be taken into consideration. In
addition, they point to the fact that
one inhabitant of Coventry who ven
tured to peek at Lady Godiva during
ner ride was stricken blind, and they
don't want the entire village to lose its
eyesight merely because of a New
Years party.
"Pouf!" rstorts Betty Collins to this.
'Likewise. ii couple of whitfs. Guasts
with weak optics can come provided
with binders or smoked spcctacles."
"Bah!" is the reply of Polly Holli-
day to this. of you think there is a
male New Yorker who would wear
either under such circumstances you'd
better go get psyche -analyzed."
And there the matter stands Incl
dentally, there is considerable rivalry
about the village as to who will be
chosen for the part Of Lady Godiva, a
selection that is up to the Baron de
Grandcourt. He has laid down only
one hard and fast rulc-that she must
not have bobbod hair--a decision which
naturally has created storm of pro
test
The baron is at present keeping other
tentative points for the Judgment
strictly to himself.

several days since She had had
really good meal she had no appetite.
She was too worried for that. Where
was Peter? What could have han
pened to him?
And then, long after Farmer
Browns Boy had gone, she saw a
bobbing speck way over toward the
Green Forest. Mrs. Peter sat ND
straight that she might see better.
and great hope sprang up in her
heart. The speck grew larger. 1t was
brownish- gray! Could it be-yes. it
was Peter! He was coming lipperty
llpperty-hp as fast as he could run.
With a bound little Mrs. Peter ran to
meet him.
That afternoon, side by side. they
feasted on the good things left for
them by Farmer Browns Boy, and be-
tween bites Peter told all about his
adventures, how he had nearly been
caught by Yowler the Bob Cat and
the twins, Boxer and Woof- Woof. re
tire for the winter, and later had seen
Buster Bear go to sleep.
Later, when they could eat no more
they sat side by side under a friendly
bramble-bush. Little Mrs. Peter snug
gled up to Peter. 81 never was SO
happy in all my life" she whispered.
ut was good feast and there is
lot left over" said Peter, as usual
thinking of his stomach.
ut isn't that; it is having you
home safe again." whispered little
Mrs. Peter. ooh, Peter, don't ever,
ever go away again"
And now you know why Mrs. Peters
Christmas was so happy.
