Grandduchess of Wash
ington Is Arranging
Series Of Concerts
at Bar Harbor

Mrs. Henry F. Dimock, one
Of the grandduchesses'' Of
Washington, is busy .spon-
soring again. Under her
direction there has been ar
ranged 4 series Of concerts
to be given at Bar Harbor,
Me-, where she is passing
the summer at Elsinore Cot
tage.
The first will be given on
Saturday afternoon, August
4. And the others on the
following Saturdays until
the series Of four il COM
plet ed. The international
Singers, . quartet Of male
voices, will give the first
program.
One wonders If this series
il for the benefit of the
George Washington Memorial
in which Mrs. Dimock is so
interested and for which she
has worked 50 indefatigably
the last few years.

Mammoth Memorial
II would seem that patience
and ambition to achieve must
be inexhaustible In order to
carry on the efforts 10 raise
the requisite amount for such
q mammoth undertaking as this
memorial to the Father Of His
Country.
But Mrs. DimOck never seems
to falter. And when one "series"
IS ended she has beent ready to
promote another in an attempt
to collect for this cause. a
slow but perhaps . sure way!
Washington still remembers the
lectures last winter given by DIR.
Louis K. Anspacher, Of New York.
who was the star in two groups
sponsored by Mrs. Dimock for the
George Washington Memorial.
First Series
The first series was on The
Modern Drama" and was given in
the ballroom OF Mrs. Dimock's
home on Scott Circle. This was
so successful that q second series
was arranged to be given mt the
Mayflower, where larger mum.
Der could be accommodated. The
subject of this was Woman As the
Philosophers Have seen Her"
Perhaps this last series may not
have been any more scholarly or
generally interesting, but it GER
tainly was more provocative.
There were four lectures. The first
one on Pagan Woman" went al
right, leaving an audience extreme
in its approval Of the marvellous
DIR. Anspacher." The rub came,
however, at the second lecture.
which had as its topic, Women
of the Bible.

 boycott of Princeton merchants was threatened today by 1000 under- graduates of Princeton university who have been barred from voting in the coming elections on tho ground that they are not residents of the city.
 Discrimination for discrimination. No vote-no trade" read posters dis tributed about the campus after the election board refused to register 100 undergraduates. Graduate and seminary students were allowed to register.
 The contention of the students that they are entitled to vote is up- held by President Grier Hibben and Dean Christian Gauss.
 Tt is unfair to exclude student residents in Princeton from the privilege of voting when that privi- lege has been given them fer at least 70 years" President Hibben said. There is evidently prejudice or hostility, rather than any basis of reason"
 The present action of the board of elections has a precedent in their re. fusal last year to allow students to vote Tn bitter mayoralty contest.
