NEW YORK, Jan. with a bow
IN to the old year and a saluta-
ton to the new, I nominate for
honorable mention IL American
women, who, it seems to me, have
improved the 1850 shining hours of
1884 by making highs in human en-
deavor.
My list has been compiled, not
without trepidation, and only after
extensive consultation with some Of
our best pickers Of winners.
The feeling Of the persons to
whom : talked is that the time is
past when there is any excuse for
listing the accomplishments Of
women merely as the accomplish
ments of women. This all-America
eleven is hailed, then, solely be-
cause the achievements of its men,
berS made history.

We discussed his puppet shows, Jack and the Bean
Stalk" "Penocchio," "Hsnsel and Gretel." and the latest,
Little Black Sambo," all designed particularly to enter

The revival Of interest really began in 1919 when
Tony Sarg started his troupe. Mr.. Fowler told us. Mr..
Fowler started the movement in Indiana, for he is the
only %puppeteer who tours the state with his show. He
lectures before clubs, schools and churches, and one
Of his most entertaining talks is accompanied by dem

ONCE upon a time in London. Lady Jane was the model of Partisan
~ style to fashon-conscious women, who waited excitedly from one
season to another to see what she would wear. Lady Jane, " e learned,
was a puppet. who basked in feminine admiration in the golden age of
puppetry during the seventeenth century. Harry Fowler told US this
story after our curiosity was aroused in the puppet show he presented
within the play Of Cinderella" sponsored by the Chldrens Theater
last week.
