Mrs. McKelvie, wife of the governor
of Nebraska, and Mr.. and Mrs. Co
burn, stars in the cast playing 80
This Is London" were honor guests
at the Symposia luncheon, a group
formed in the civic department Of the
Woman's Club.
Mrs. McKelvie told of her manage
ment of a 20-room house without a
servant. The great thought which had
inspired Mrs. McKelvie in her under
taking was the fact that her attitude
an making housekeeping an honored oc-
cnpation might influence American
girls to cooperate more willingly in
making marriage possible for young
men who are just getting their start
in the world.
9 Mr.. Coburn was the other speaker
for the day, urging upon everyone the
necessity of encouraging the presenta-
tion of the higher type Of drama. Club
women do not need urging nearly as
much as the general public, Mr.. Co
burn admitted, as they belong TO the
cultured 8 per cent upon whom all the
best drama must depend. Declaring
that all great nations must have great
drama, Mr.. COburn deplored the fact
that America has done little for the
drama, and that the younger genera
ton will be uncultivated in that re-
spect.
Mrs. Henry Vodrie, chairman Of the
Symposia, presided. Mrs. G. W. Ling
and Mrs. NJ. G. Hill were hostesses
for the day. Mrs. Mary Stuart Ed
wards, accompanied by Mrs. Tekla
Staffel, gave three vocal selections:
Ill Baccio" ............... Arditi
''The Jasmine Door" .... Alicia Scott
"Homing"
Her voice of remarkable power has
been called golden" by critics and
was thoroughly appreciated by her
audience.
