Now the postofflce de- partment has taken steps to check the practice in a nation-wide regula- tion.

So realistic was Miss Harding's rendition of the story in the quaint heart to heart way of Maude Adams, that the boys and girls who heard it could almost see the fairies before them and hear their tiny voices. It was a wonderful eiperience for these children, gathered for "Chil- dren's Day/' at the park^ as free guests of the Ravinia Park club, com- posed of philanthropic society women of the North Shore. Not 'all of the children could gain admission to the theater at once, and so Miss Harding* afte* her first re- cital, gave others out undtr the trees to round-eyed boys and girls who lis- tened with rapt attention to the won- derful achievements: of the people of the fairy world. Mrs. Annette B. JOnes* Who phiyed the musical accompaniments to Mis* Harding, aided in making the fairies seem real to the Juveniles. Besides Peter Pan, the children were treated to a concert by the Theodore •Thomas orchestra. Mrs. Frank R. McMullin, active president of the Ravinia club, was there to welcome her small guests and 500 tired mothers who came with them.
