fitted her role niceiy. She made
of it not the haughty lady. but. the
woman who preferred love to any-
thing else'in the world. soornlng
even a crown for the man she loved.

John A. Clark u the Lord Edigio
and Lawrence Frothinghsin as the
jester were also good. The others
in the play and the pageant made
the most of their roles.

The scene of the play was “in a
forest before the house of Maria.
the peasant." David Robinson's
place in the valley along the Silver-
mine river made an excellent set-
ting for the play and pageant. and
Mr. Robinson and his wife. known
on the stage as Adele Klaer. were
charming hostesses. To n.1{sa‘old
Puget. one of this year's trustees of
the Village Room, must go much
credit for arranging the entertain-
merit?

The Village Room officers are ar-
ranging several other entertainments
including a reading by Mrs. Conant
and their will be the usual dances
at the London barn, which is the
Village Room home. Miss Monica
Borglum is to give a supper party.
and Mrs. George Avlson is arrang-
ing a party also.

In all. the Village Room will he a
lively place. and the prospects are
that this. the 10th season. will be
one of its best.

Grey Says:

 

 

By CYNTHIA GREY.

Two missionaries. for 12 years re-
sidents ot the African hinterlands
among aboriginal and savage tribes
came back recently and. looking up-
on our mndern maid and youth.
were horrified into front-page heaiy
material and the strange hair gen~
eral behavtur.

And they extended their amaze-
ment not only to the maids, but the
nintrons as well.

What. they naked. would the aver-
age savage think of all this?

My immediate reaction is that he
wouldn't think much about it—
mlsht, in fact. utter a single "Ugh!"
——and that. realizing his particular
barkground. it wouldn't make much
difference what he thought. anyhow.
And that is presuming a capacity to
think logically,

But it does make a. difference
what. people, absent from our shores
feir a dozen or two dozen years.
think about us and see in us.

That makes a vatuabls study in
perspective-

The point is we have to live in

From our round tables and back

There is no need for argument—-
we do live in a time when re-
straints have been lifted and when
the word independence has taken on
a -vastly broader meaning for the
feminine.

This change has juit begun and
we must remember that all change
is marked by misfortunes. misunder-
standings and mistakes. With re-
straints lifted there'sre those who
will run wild! And so we read. here
and there. of a "flapper bandit," a
"flapper murder" and whatnot. but
they are scattered and few among
