for the annual fete of the Arts Club
of Washington, the exotic and alluring
Bal Boheme, which this year is known
as the "Ball of the Seven Seas.”
The acceptances of the chatelaines of J
the legations of Norway and of Greece !
are particularly interesting because of
the alluring lore of the sea associated
with those countries from earliest days.
Their heroes, both mythical and real,
were intrepid sailors on the deep, and
tales of their exploits are treasured in
the literary annals of the ages. The
Greek sea god, Poseidon, under his
Roman name of Neptune, will be the
ruler of the Arts Club carnival, which
will take place February 8 at the Wil
lard Hotel. His entrance, clad in his
kingly robe*, driving his sea horse* and
attended by mermaids and pages, will
open the brilliant pageant. “Neptune's
Review," which will be staged in the
large ball room. Mythology credits
Poseidon or Neptune with having been
the creator of the horse in a contest
with Athene as to who could give the
best gift to the earth.
“The Dance of the Golden Dolphins,”
which will be one of the numbers in
the pageant and which will be present
ed by a group under the direction of
Donna Taggart, will be especially ap
propriate, as the dolphin was held
sacred to Neptune, who will be imper
sonated by Mr. James Otis Porter.
