CHICAGO society generally concedes that the Junior 
League benefits are the most astonishing events in 
the Chicago spring season, and it is predicted their 
triumph this year, the “Follies,” will surpass all former 
efforts under the direction of their coach, Donald Mac- 
Donald of New York. The league has rest rooms for 
business girls and maintains a bed at St. Luke’s for girls 
needing medical care. Patronesses include Mrs. R. T. 
Crane, Jr., Mrs. Arthur Meeker, Mrs. Arthur G. Leonard 
of Eastern Point, Mrs. P. D. Armour and Mrs. Watson 
Armour.

Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Meeker gave a musicale last 
Sunday afternoon at their home in honor of their daugh- 
ter, Mrs. Horace Gray (Katherine Meeker) of Boston. 
The Meeker home, situated far out on the Lake Shore drive 
and facing an extension of Lincoln park along the lake, ts 
one of the most striking of the new homes in the city. 
It is an immense four-story brick structure, severely plain 
in its architecture, with great windows of small-paned 
glass, from which wonderful and delightful views of 
Lake Michigan are ever in sight. The family moved into 
it only last spring. _ The architect, Charles C. Platt of 
New York, said that he knew of no house in any great 
city to touch it in grandeur and commanding location. 
With its charming location on the drive and a cross street, 
its proximity to the parkway, and within a stone’s throw 
of the lake—so dear to all Chicagoans—it may well be 
the envy of any summer resort or country home, with 
the added advantage of being a few blocks from the busy 
streets of a great city.

The illustrated evening lecture on “War Time 
Sketches in France” by Herbert Ward drew a large and 
distinguished company in the oak paneled drawing room 
of the. Tudor house of Mr. and Mrs. Richard T. Crane, 
Jr. An amount of $7,500 was raised. Mr. and Mrs. 
Russell Tyson were among those present. In contributing 
to the war relief clearing house for France and her allies, 
formed by Myron T. Herrick in Paris soon after the war 
opened, Chicago is aware of the fact that her great debt 
to France and England, made at the time of the Chicago 
fire, has not been paid. Those countries contributed then 
$880,000 to the needs of the city. Mr. Ward was dined 
by the clubs, in private homes, and spoke at various re- 
ceptions in his honor given at the university and in the

An enterprise is being planned by Chicago society 
to. raise some money for the National Red Cross. After 
Easter the work will be put through, which consists of 
staging an assembly ball at the Blackstone hotel, a dinner 
and dance at the Onwentsia club, a polo match and other 
scenes furnished by the noted spots in Lake Forest. The 
initial performance will be at the Casino in May. House 
parties are being organized in Lake Forest for the par- 
ticipants in the affair. John Alden Carpenter is writing 
the music. ‘The film is booked for over fifty movie houses 
in Chicago and in surrounding towns. Each time it is 
shown one fourth of the net proceeds will revert to the 
governors of the Casino, who will turn it over to the 
American Red Cross. The Junior league and the Lake 
Forest Aldis Players will be in the cast.
