, Here la what the San Francisco
, Jlxnmlner said of Miss Gregg a few
days ago:
' Mis Enid Gregg Is more beautiful
t nnd moro graceful thnn Pavlowa."
' 'So declares Dr. Arnold Gcntho.
" It was only last Sunday that tiro
t hrongs stood In line awaiting a
chance to get Into the Valencia The
- ftftMcr for a farewell glimpse of tho rtL
K vine Husslan. And then came the
Wi people of society, who harked hack
i to the KIrmess and recalled the dash-
flP ng daliclng nnd poses of Emll Kehr-
leln nnd Miss Enid Gregg.
'On that occasion Miss Gregg np
peared as a ballet dancer, and she.
tlnated nbout na light as thistle down,
rivaling Ilurke's famous description
nT'Marlo Antoinette In that her feet
Bcarcely seemed to touch tho earth.
"-Every eye followed her during tho
, time she was on the stage; every
lTnnd applauded, and cen the gener-
' ally envious women were enraptured.
The plqunnte, daring. Incomparable
oung girl was the talk and success
Of tho occasion, nnd It was recalled
(tlCat Larry Harris, the famous wit,
SmYd said, In seeing her on another

Is such that were she to go on tho

tho KIrmess gave n gllmpso of what

And now Miss Gregg has gono
