Thanks swanq. We will update this image and the others of Adelaide Baylis.

The Milwaukee Journal - Apr 3, 1918 news.google.com/newspapers?nid=1499&dat=19180403&... reported that Col. Baylis said that Lieut. Mary Watkins would soon travel to France with Miss Ann Morgan. She was to drive trucks bringing supplies to "stricken villages."

Should be Aileen Sedgwick and Marion Tiffany, see www.flickr.com/photos/library_of_congress/11733791166/

It is likely that this photo was taken at the Greenwich Village Garden Party in June, 1917. See

Thanks for connecting the two images of the young ladies, B-59. We'll make the correction to the caption the next time we update.

A "Miss Tiffany" is mentioned in connection with the Greenwich Village Garden Party in May, 1917: The Washington, D.C. Times reported, on May 23, 1917: "VEGETABLE PARTY RAISES BIG FUND New York People Help Woman's National Service League. NEW YORK. May 23. Five thousand society, near-society, and non-society folk paid their way into a Washington Square garden party with raw vegetables which they later bought back at prices that even the war never can force. Wherefore, the Woman's National Service League's campaign fund is richer by several thousand dollars today. Mayor Mltchel's wife got in with a young basket of carrots; Miss Tiffany gave $5 for a frankfurter and ate it- which was worth $5 more. Marie Dressler auctioned off a bouquet of cabbages, onions, string beans, and garlic tied with red. white, and blue baby ribbon." chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn84026749/1917-05-23/ed-...

Possibly part of the series on the Greenwich Village Fair

Although the date on the negative is 3/29/18, almost a year after the other photos, the benches and railings match some in the others, and are probably from Washington Square Park.
A biography of Dressler notes that in June of 1917, she "worked as a saleslady at a Garden Party Benefit of the National League for Womens Service in Washington Square."

Billboard for June 2, 1917 reported: "Marie Dressler can do more with vegetables than throw them around front of a camera She proved it when she went down on Washington Square and sold cabbage and onions for four hours at the garden party conducted by the Washington Square unit of the National League for Women's Work. A big calico apron helped create atmosphere and true to huckster tradition she shrank not from asking twice the market price for her goods But unlike the bona fide lady of the pushcart she got what she asked."

Thanks for this excellent research Art Siegel. I agree that this photo was most likely taken at the same event in support of the National League for Women's Service in 1917. We'll add some of the information to the record the next time we update.
