THE SUNDAY . STAR,. JANUARY 16, .192I—PART .2. SOCIETY Society Lends Itself Brilliantly to Several Events of Past Week Children's Hospital Ball of Monday Night Among . i Most Interesting— Japanese Reception Is De- lightful—Mr. and Mrs. Mann Are Hosts. BY SALLIE V. Y OCIETY was in an interesting mood last week, lending itself bril- S liantly on many occasions, chief of which were the Children's Hos- pital ball Monday night, when the Vice President and Mrs. Mar- shall were the guests of honor: the unusual and interesting reception which the ambassador of Japan and Baroness Shidehara gave at Raus- cher’s, when the splendid art of jiudo was shown by Dr. Kano and some of his pupils; the large company entertained at dinner by Repre- sentative and Mrs. Mann, and the lively presentation to society yes- terday of Miss May L. Govin by her parents, Mr. and Mrs. R. R. Govin, first at a tea and then a charmingly arranged ball. i | 'HE Vice President and Mrs. Marshall were hosts at two large dinner parties in the presidential suite at the New Willard, and there were dinner companies entertained at the French, British. Polish and other embassics and legations. “At homes” sent hundreds scurrying from place to place leaving cards and making calls in person, Mrs. James / Reed and Mrs. Selden Palmer Spencer, wives, respectively, of the senior and junior senators from Missouri, solving the question of calling quite admirably by receiving together, and having the wives of representatives frore *hei® states assisting, thus giving not only official women a chance to make several calls in one, but extending to the citizens of their state in Washington an opportunity to meet almost the entire delegation. Mrs P,M. OLEY, of Indiana. Friend of the Vice Presidents and Mrs: Marshall here for the vinter v oo~ UCH things as a dance at the Argentine embassy, the musical ride at the Washington Riding and Hunt Club and the Georgetown as- sembly are all events of the early part of the week. while Thursday will bring the large reception which the Attorney General and Mrs. Palmer will give for the ambassador to Japan and Mrs. Roland S.

Mr. and Mrs. Henry Oxnard will be hosts at a ball Saturday night. the prime minister and the cabinet. He will return late in February. The charge d'affaires of the Nether- lands legation and Mme. Hnbrecht are Southern Society, the Southern Relief, and, in fact, all southern organizations suffered much in the death of Miss Nannie Randolph Heth, and it was typical of the courage which she evinced through more than thirty years that she should in her last illness direct that the an- nual Southern Relief ball should not be abandoned because of her health. This fact makes doubly sure the success of the ball February 7, and operations for its entire success are being carried on at 1924 T street . by Mrs. Bates Warren, vice president. EX~SERVICE men, patients at Mount Alto, Garfield, Providence and Casualty hospitals who are still suffering the effects of war will benefit by the two presentations of “Kismet,” with Otis Skinner as the star, to be given at Crandall’'s Knickerbocker Theater Wednesday after- noon, when the handiwork of the men will be on exhibition and sale.
