indicates that Capt. Baylis is Adelaide B. Baylis, who headed the NLWS New York Motor Corps.

This photo ran in The Sunday Oregonian. (Portland, Ore.) June 03, 1917, with the caption: " Greenwich Village held a garden party recently under the auspices of the National League for Women's Service for the benefit of that war service organization in which Anne Morgan and other, well-known women are much interested. Greenwich Village is that part of old New York which centers in Washington Square. It is bounded on the north by society and on the south by Bohemia. Both contributed to the success of the garden party. Things to eat in Washington Square Park were served in little booths, or from stands, and one of the most popular of these was the "hot dog" stand, suggestive of the epicurean delights of Coney Island. There was a dancing pavilion and the wife of Mayor Mltchel did a one-step there to open the fete." oregonnews.uoregon.edu/lccn/sn83045782/1917-06-03/ed-1/se...

This charity garden party on May 22, 1917 was a one-off event, not to be confused with the Greenwich Village Fair, which was held repeatedly.
