colors. The characters are Frances,

Kingsley. Walter Evanstou and Susan.
a maid. The plot is ingenious and amus-
ing. the dialogue crisp. sparkling. yet
perfectly natural. There are many good
situations, not one of which was lost by
Mr. and Mrs. Carl A. Harstrom.

The point of the play is a lover's quar.
rel, with the traditional “making up."
Frances is delicious, piquant, unreason-
able. winning. lovable; in short. femin-
ine. Mrs. Hmtrom’s interpretation
was admirable. She, too, was most
feminine. Ber gown was a dainty or-
gaudie of llack ground strewed with
bunches of flowers, the prevailing hue of
which was light green. There were wide
gmeu riotous at neck and belt. and
sing has with back feathers. Walter
Evanston, strong. gentle, full of whim-
steality. always capable of taking the
hnnnrons view of a difficult situation.
was well adapted to Mr. Harstrom. He
played , with delicacy, vigor. power.
Susan. the maid. was transformed into
Susan. the niece. and taken by little
Frances Harstrom. who was grioted by
a round of applause as she brought the
bunch of violets which plays a part in
the mimic comedy. Mr. Harstroui we.
presented with a bouquet of large di-
mensions and glowing colors by 801110 of
his admiring lady friends. and the ap-
plause occasioned by this gift and its re-
ception by the actor. made a ripple of
memmeut.

Miss Amy Wood and Miss Littlejohn
played the violin and piano before the
play and during the tea. The stage was
set in part with furniture loner-d by
Sconeld 6t. Hoyt. andavas extremely

mirably find the stage is a good one.

The audience was not as large as so in.
tor-eating and unusual entertainment de-
served. but this seem to be the fate of
most "attractions" this year. There
was. however. the general atmosphere of
mrdlality and hospitality which the
(.‘entral club ladies know how to diffuse
among their guests. ‘

The next play will be notable. it is
called "Mind Ours." and. like "As

These were distributed in the hall-by

basket tied in narrow ribbon of the nu-
tioual colors. At the head of the stairs
an orchestra played during the hours
of the reception, the inspirttiug strains
of patriotic airs floating down to the
guests below. In the upstairs rooms
there were great bowls of pink and
white roses and tulips Mrs. Kinney
received alone in the library. which was
exquisitely decorated in rare flowers.
