FAIR VISITOR
FLITS In
AND OUT
Mrs. DuBoise sHeyward
Promises Return En-
gagement'' in Autumn

gagement" in Autumn
Washington entertained an
angel unaware in the charm
ing person of Mrs. DuBose
Hayward, who so success
fully dramatized "Porgy,
her husbands epic of negro
life. But she had taken
flight almost before it was
discovered that she was here.
Happily, however, there is
the promise of a longer visit
in the autumn and probably
Mr.. Hayward will come with
her then.
Now at "Yaddo"
Mrs. Hayward left town
Vesterday--or was it the day
before?-after q short visit with
her aunt, Mrs. William Harnll-
con Bayly, and has gone for
Few weeks to "Yaddo,' a pictur-
eauus artist and writer's colony
near Saratoga. This is estab-
Iished in the home of the late
Spencer Trask and the place
takes its name from the at
tennpts of the former owners
DAUGHTER to say shadow" 1t
Is modelled in some ways after
the Mcdowell colony at Peter
boro. N. H., except that Peter
boro is prominently place
for work and Yaddo is designed
more for rest and play. Later
IN the summer both Mr.. and
Mrs. Hayward expect to go to
Peterboro for little while--lf
thew can spare that much time
away from the new house they
are building at Hendersonville,
s. c.. where they expect to
make their future home. Mean
while they have q pied-a-terre
AZ Charleston, S. c., where Mr..
Hayward studied the negro
types he has portrayed so
wildly in "Porgy' and soaked
in the atmosphere which helps
make the book-and the play
one Of the most stirring OF our
day.
Stirring Drama
Those who read 'sPorgy'' first
seemed to be just a trifle disap..
pointed in the play and to feel
that something Of the sweep OF q
great work Of art had been lost.
But to those who went first 10
the play, the drama brought the
greater thrill and there was some
.Epght feeling Of let-down on read
ing the novel. Which goes TO
prove that Mrs. Hayward gave
her husband highly artistic CO.
operation. Theirs Is q combina-
ton OF gifts with great promise
for thu future.
Mrs. William Hamilton Bayly
has been in town most Of the
summer, with an occasional short
trip to Atlantic City or New York
for variety. And she has but
recently returned after q visit
with Mr.. and Mrs, Thomas w.
Phillips, jr., at Phillips Hall, their
country home at Butler, Pa. She
motored to Butler and back with
Mrs. Phillips, who has been max.
ing periodical trips to Washing
ton to oversee some remodeling

DON'T HAVE A
LIGHTHOUSE CHILD"

All during the long winter months
many children of pre-schooI age are
Kept indoors most of the time. AS a
result they become LIGHTHOUSE chill
dren." Unless parents see to it that
such youngsters are transplanted to
the out-of-doors in the early spring
when the house plants are trans
planted there is liable to be trouble.
According to the Philadelphia De-
partment of Public Health the hot
mouse child, sometimes kept indoors
by its mother because she considers
1t unduly susceptible to colds, is the
very child who fails to develop a
normal resistance to such infections.
Such children, says this authority,
are nearly always below normal and
do not respond rapidly to treatment
when disease attacks them. Then
there is danger of ricketts, which Of
ten develop in children in winter.
Not only this but such a child who
is deprived of the necessary amount
of outdoor exercise may develop
mental attitude which makes him
dependent upon his parents and
lacking in initiative. The depart
ment's advice is: send them into the
sunshine as early as possible.-The
Pathfinder.

THE OIL CASES

Wrongs against the people should
be exempt from the statute of Iimi-
tations, and there is no citizen but
what will approve and applaud the
various actions in our federal courts
aimed to punish the guilty and to
clear up the oil wrongs. The feelings
OF the people at large, however, is
that the activities should be judicial
rather than political and there is no
denying that every time the Demo-
cratic politicians stick their fingers
into the mess, public confidence in
the sincerity Of all the proceedings
is affected.
Early last fall, Jim Reed at Sedal-
ia, Missouri, in disclosing his own
modest Presidential boom, made a
speech on Republican oil and Demo-
cratic virtue. The Honorable Jim ad-
vised his affrighted listeners that the
oil issue properly handled would
make for Democratic victory in '28.
While the general body of the voters
remained apathetic, it must be con-
fessed that some of his fellow states
men on Capitol Hill took the word
