Master Alfred Knapp entertained ten pf his small friends on the after¬ noon of April 26 at his home, 32 Wil¬ son Place. Alfred was seven years old and received a number of remem¬ brances from his friends.
Liberty Club MeeU
The Liberty Larkin Club had its last session with Mrs. Cornelius Bra- len, 73 Pearsall Avenue. Coming as it did '^o near the Easter season, Mr"?. Braren had her luncheon table Jeco- rated appropriately and Easter bun¬ nies filled with candies were the fav¬ ors. Some time last week all the mombers of the Skylark/.i Club th- ceived invitations to a real sure-enuff party and dance to be given at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Frank Combs, 202 Pennsylvania .\venue, Friday ev ening, May 2. Needless to say, no die stayed at home, except the 1^ that were kept home by sickness.
Perhaps Mrs. Combs took the warn¬ ing in the Review of April 18 and "beatTus to it," for which we are deep¬ ly grateful, for it is pleasant to go to a party and not have to provide either eats or entertainment, but we expect her turn will come some time just the same.
Dances, potato races, peanut con¬ tests, etc., fornied part of the amuse¬ ments o;f the evening. There was also a clothes hanging contest, in which the men showed themselves so profi¬ cient that we heard one lady say she would have a three weeks' laundry ready for her husband to hang out the following week.
Our host and hostess had planned for a negro cake walk, but they could not get the talent and they fortun¬ ately were told that the cake walk is not, as commonly supposed, of ne¬ gro origin, but comes down to us from the Irish people of the Sixteenth Cen¬ tury, so they had an Irish couple "wondrously and gorgeously attired" provide this part oif the evening's en¬ tertainment. We failed to quite catch the names of this couple, but believe it to be Miss Frances McMorse and Charlie MacKnapp. Later in the ev¬ ening our hostess had another sur¬ prise for us, for she had procured two charming petite French maids to serve us with delightful refreshments. TTwy were Mademoiselle Francees Coonlbs and Jeanne Cartier. These maids, or perhaps it was their unique costumes, provided a lot of amuse¬ ment. The party broke up some time the next day, with an old-fashioned Virginia reel.
We are now waiting for our next party which will be a surprise on— well we think we had befter not say and anyway, we are not sure that we know.

Hard to Believe
1 met George Aring last Thursday. He said that he was down to join in the celebration of the 50th wedding anniversary of his wife's parents. Just before I met him I saw his wife's father standing in front of the^*p08t office talking real estate or boats and I was inclined to ask George whether he meant their 50th wedding anniver¬ sary or their 50th birthday anniver¬ sary. It was rather difficult to be¬ lieve that the gentleman I had just passed was old enough to be celebrat¬ ing his 50th wedding anniversary.

"The part as portrayed by a well- known vampire of the movies has not a shred of decency to cover it, and worse still, it has not one fibre of no¬ bility to exalt it. or one thrill of hero¬ ism to redeem it. The movie, "Sa¬ lome," is the mere futile incarnation of vain voluptuous wantoness."
We are rather prou<l of the fact that following our protest against the pro¬ ducing of this play, the American Theatre withdrew it from their pro¬ gram, and substituted another play in its place.
