i ■ There Is not a more charming thing in
| the holiday book stalls than Helen Smith
i Woodruffs "The lady of the Hight
j house," which is a "really truly" Christ -
| 9tna8 story, as much so as her other new
Ibook, dedicated to Mrs. Allle Birch’s
j grandson, Master Dudley Jvaw'rence, is a
"really Truly Nature Story."
, Mrs. Woodruff is deeply Interested in the ,
success of this new work of hers, "The
1 (Lady," as the money it brings has been
promised to her pet charity, the New York
Association for the Blind. It Is a charity
which has touched her heart, and she
i proves it in this sunny narrative of how
one may bring light to even the most
hopeless of the little "night children."
Those who know Mrs. Woodruff here
and in other places over Alabama—for she
|was an Alabama girl and a Birmingham
belle and beauty—can picture her as "the
j;iady," though she Is ever so much pret
tier than the charming young creature
shown to the reader In the frontispico of
the book as her ladyship. And if she were
i the heroine of her own story what a
double pity it would be for the little
| "night scouts" to be deprived of a sight
- [of her blue eyes, her "really truly" golden
'hair and her flashing yet tender smile,
for she is so pretty she makes one more
1 gratefully happy than ever for the privil
ege or Bering ner.
But she says in her “author’s note” that
there is a real lady of the lighthouse,
and the book is inspired by her, but that
the book is not a portrait of her, nor is
its story her story; that on the otho^
hand, the account of the methods for
! cheering and helping the blind are all
based on fact, and an able worker at the
real “lighthouse” has read the book and
approved its fidelity in that regard. And
now, she states, the real “Lady of the
Lighthouse” reads it for the lirst time.
It is the story of a little blind boy, one
who has been left so after scarlet fever,
and he is a rebellious little chap, and
bis wealthy father is as sensitive as he
himself. The small boy has no mother,
but is in charge of a negro “mammy”
whom Mrs. Woodruff has depicted with
j the faithfulness of a true southern girl.
She has brought the necessary bit of
humor into her story through this med
ium, for in the tedious months when
r the bright, beautiful Miss Hope—the lady
—is bringing happiness into the life of
little Victor, the “sunshine boy” of her
story, through showing him his 10-finger
eyes, “mammy*’ is almost, an ever present
source of encouragement and help.
The lighthouse is described as a place
filled with sunshine and flowers, and hung
•with gaily colored song birls which flood
the air with their Christmas carols, the
laughing voices of boys and men seeming
to vie with them in joyousness. Miss
t* Hope is the lighthouse keeper, and some
of the inmates are Boy Scouts, but all
of them are demonstrating the happiness
and the light that may come to even the
darkest nights of her bllna boys.
It is a book Ailed with good cheer and
hopefulness for children. Practical meth
ods of instruction used in helping this
class of unfortunates are graphically de
scribed, and when the owner of a fac
tory argues: “I cannot use a blind work
man,” the lady says quickly, “Why not?”
There are lew positions of trust, even of
the highest order, that have not been
filled by the blind. We have In this coun
try a blind senator, a blind judge, in
ventors and not a few instructors of the
seeing. You have a telephone service,
haven’t you? He can operate that. We
have graduates tilling such positions quite
as well as if they could see. Or give
him a place in your stenographic depart
ment. The present day shorthand ma
chines, that are used to take dictation in
raised type, make it quite easy and most
pleasant work. Our lighthouse office force
Is almost entirely blind, you know. He
might become a wireless telegraph oper
ator, anything, In fact, along those lines.
We are turning out competent men and
■women every day. Or If these things are
beyond him let him make the bro'oms,
mops, brushes that you use in the lab
oratory; and rebottom the chairs. And
1© eyes and a brave heart such as my
other “night children” have will soon be
his, too, and then you'll find him not
only useful but a treasure Indeed!
And “Mammy” all the time is a com
forting and sometimes complaining mem
ber of sunshiny boy’s household. When
her master asks, “What's happened?”
•miling at her childish sullenness, she
exclaims, Indignantly: “Now, Mr. Vicky!
You Just ask me what you knows aa
' well as I does, jus’ ’zactly what’s al
ways a-happenin’ since dat good-for
nuthin’, no-’count, strained nurse coined
here and taken my baby away from me!
An’ I tell yer right now, I ain’t gwiner
stan’ it much longer, neider,” she went
on angrily. “Me, his own flesh and blood
nigger mammy, bein’ put out by dat po’
white trash dat ain’t got no mo’ sense
dan what a horsepittel could Btrain into
her! Why, what you reckon she told me
jus’ now?” she exploded, turning to Miss
Hope. “She jus’ po-litely open’ de do’ and
tole me to git out. dat 'her patient wanted
to res’!’ Me, who lias been restin’ dat
chile since befo’ he was burned!”
The little book is exquisite in its ten
derness. its humor and its pathos, and
should llnd a place on bookshelves where

THE FIRST
“THE DANSANTE"
A surprisingly large number of men
found their way to the first of the tangu
teas-given at the Country club Friday
afternoon. Next week more will find it
out and Join the happy throng in the ball
room which, one may remark in passing,
is just now one of the most attractive
club ballrooms in the south. It is aston
ishing how many decorative wonders may
be wrought in a place that has seemed
moderately satisfactory. The ballroom
has not received in times past the atten
tions, artistically speaking, bestowed upon
the other portions of the building, so the
Introduction of French enamel and lovely
soft yeliuw walls, and long glass doors
and bgeautlful light fixtures aft: the
more noticeable because effecting a traus
tormatlon so complete. The other club
rooms—the living room, rotunda with its
rose draperies and exunlsi/e lights, th«
sun parlor which denies the fact of win
ter, bringing in its place the warmth and
color of a soul hern springtime, the din
ing room and library, with their sumptu
ous furnishings—are ideally lovely; but It
is In the ballroom, undoubtedly, that most
of the good times will be had this winter.
Already two Saturday evenings have been
enjoyed there In the most delightful of
dinner dances, and Friday the 1st "the
dansante” was Instituted.
It was a tremendous success, the "the
dansante." Dozens of feminine devotees
of the dance were there to take part in
this phase of the entertainment and look
ing their very prettiest in smart gowns
and clever hats brought an additional ele
ment of brightness and beauty to the
place as necessary to its completeness as
tlie gay lampshades which have toned the
cold brilliance of the lights.
