Grecian dances by Miss Dorothy 
Jordan proved the chief feature of 
the varied attractions at the garden 
party, or ‘‘Village Fete’’ given 
Wednesday afternoon at the sum- 
mer estate, ‘‘Carlsruh,’’ of Mr. and 
Mrs. Charles D. Sias in Wenham. 
Mr. and Mrs. Sias courteously off- 
ered the Wenham Village Improve- 
ment association the use of the place 
for this event, which was arranged 
to help a fund with which to im- 
| prove the town by setting out trees 
and in other ways beautifying the 
public places. Miss Jordan, who 
was attractive in a classic gown of 
| lavender and green chiffon, gave her 
/ dances on a natural stage of grass 
lawn, hemmed in by willows, while 
| ihe crowd sat or stood on the side 
of the slope. She danced to the 
music of a flute, and her perform- 
| anee, repeating her success at char- 
| ity affairs in Boston, notably so that 
for the Sharon Sanatorium, given at 
the Boston Opera House, was so de- 
lightful that she was obliged to re- 
| spond to the demand for a repeti- 
fion of her ‘‘Spirit of Myrto.”’ 
“Punch and Judy,’’ trained dogs, 
a ‘‘blackhand’’ magician and other 
| attractions delighted children, while 
| older people had opportunity to en- 
joy bridge, indoors, if they liked, 
while scattered about the estate 
Were numerous sale booths with 
tempting things displayed. Venders 
went about selling candy and other 
good things from baskets; after- 
noon tea was served on the veranda 
and in various ways the people who 
patronized the fete had a most en- 
joyable time. The committee in 
charge of the event included Mrs. 
Frank A. Magee, general chairman; 
Miss Helen Burnham, Mrs. George 
Perkins, Mrs. E. R. Anderson, Mrs. 
James B. Pickett, Mrs. Charles D. 
Sias, Miss. Annie Kimball, Mrs. 
Thomas Pingree and Edward Cole. 
This was the first time ‘‘Carlsrah’’ 
was thrown open to the public and 
the large number who attended from 
all sections of the North Shore were 
delighted with the beautiful grounds. 
A band discoursed music from a 
tent in front of the house. A flower 
show was a feature of the fete.
