West End Dance Is
Most Enjoyable One

If the first dance of the fall season
at West End Country club, given last
evening from 10 until , o'clock in
the ball room Of the club house, is
an indication of the social activities
to follow during the fall and winter,
the members of that organization are
certainly going to enjoy the coming
season.
Without doubt, last nights dance
was one of the best entertainments
presented by the club for some sew
eral months, and the event will take
its place along with those Of others
in the past that have been chalkcd
up as jobs we'll dCae.
The dance was largely attend q,
with some out Of town guests, the
membership turning out in great
numbers.
The club house was made attrac-
tive for the dance With dogWood
branches and large dahlias, all ar
ranged so as to further enhance the
natural beauty of the renovated ball
room.
Dean Hudson and his orchestra fur
niShed the music, and not too much
can be said Of this band ITudsonS
group is versatile, capable and en-
tertaining The orchestra was swamp
ed with request numbers, and gladly
complied as often as possible. The
A Capella numbers, something new
for a band here, brought forth praise
from dancers, who crowded the or

Of long standing.

Mrs. Marshall Field invited Miss

ity ball she was promoting and had
her shown into the servants sitting
room.
1t remained, however, for John
Jacob Astor, 3rd, to administer the
coup de grace. Miss Robb's paper
had permission to photograph the
Astor infant son William, but Mr.
Astor requested that Miss Robb
leave his ("magnificently gloomy,
home before the picture was taken
lest she frighten little Bill. Astor
later confessed to the photographer
women reporters scared him to
death.
But not all Of Miss Robb's adven-
lures into high society were on the
sour side. One Of the earliest friends
she made in her career was H.
Edward Manville, the Asbestos
King. Others who stand out as hav-
ing treated her as a democratic equal
are Prince Cyril, brother Of King
Boris of Bulgaria, and Cornelius
Vanderbilt, Jr. She has an especial
" warm spot in her heart for Cor

ing for twenty-five years to rise
above the blight of inherited wealth
and social position and the handi-
cap of his illustrious name.
