Miss Eleanor Wilson, President Wilson's
youngest daughter, took the leading
woman's part. Her oldest sister, Miss
Margaret Wilson, sang "The Hermit
Thrush" aa a prelude to the performance.
Mrs, Wood row Wilson's name heeded the
list of patronesses. The President, who
arrived at his summer home, Harlakenden,
this afternoon, was an Interested spectator
and was pleased with his daughter's act
ing. The fact that the Misses Wilson were
participants In the masque and the glow
ing accounts of It spectacular beauty
which had spread through the summer
colonies drew more than 300 colonists to
witness the masque. Nominally the pre

was made of the presence of President
Wilson, and attention was called also to
the fact that the mnsque originally was
written as an argument for that section
of the tariff bill which prohibited the Im

At the time It was written an amend

Senate which practically would have nul

Boston, Sept. 11. Friends of Oeorge
E. Williams, an Insurance man who died
about six weeks ago, are wondering what
became of the large sums of money they
lent to him on unsecured notes. Williams
was supposed to be wealthy, but the
statement was made to-dsy that he left
debts amounting to $1,000,000 and assets
less than one-tenth of that sum.
On account of hia reputation of being

A Diitinguithed High-Comedy

"New" Manner
Love in
a Hurry
Since time immemorial women have fought each other for
men.
Love in a Hurry' is a keen, amusing satire on this woman's
warfare; a battle of hearts and wits, closely watched and wittily
pictured by a master of satire one whose opinion of women
has become proverbial.
When three women accept a prospective millionaire, and the
girl he loves refuses him, what will happen ?
That is Love in a Hurry1!
What would you do, if you had to be married before midnight?
That is Love in a Hurry1 !
Such a mixture of comedy and pathos could not be written
by one who did not understand the "primitive woman" that
exists deep down in every woman's nature.
How Flodie, understanding woman and understanding man,
"pulls the strings" will be bound to amuse any observer of
women's wiles.
It is certainly " Three to one on Plodie."
"All women are cats, "ssys Klodie, "Cats and rata and hens
and snakes and parrots I" But l-'lodie herself, kitten though she
is, manages to outwit her three adversaries because she haa tha
only teal heart in the crowd.
By GELETT BURGESS
The author of The Maxims of Methuselah has again
directed his wit good-naturedly against women, and painted a
picture MEN will simply have to laugh at.
WOMEN will smile, scowl, throw Love in a Hurry across
the room, go and pick it up again, laugh, cry and finish it.
They'll have to.
