Harding gave the following day, at which only the Ohio delegates to he convention and the ladies of the Ohio delegation in Congress wetk guests: the series of splendid entertajnments attending the visi!! of the Venezuelan special mission, the unique roof garden dance at the hogte of Mrs. Thomas<F.

There are several important dinner rgies for the Secretary of State” and Mrs. Hughes, but the Vice ;.utidenl and Mrs. Coolidge are taking on no.morg engagements on account of a brief gbsence in Pittsburgh and Mrs. Coolidge’s con- tenplated visit to Massachusetts. lT is probable that Mrs. Harding will accompany the President to Hampton roads, when he_goes to review the Atlantic fleet April 27. Mrp. Harding has made various visits to the Mayflower, and evidently loolis forward to frequent watér trips as a means of rest for both hergelf and the President. Garden parties are still anticipated as the most attractive feature of the entire entertainment, Ha;ding awaits more settled weather before completing her program, these entertainments and the river trips will make up the greater part of frer social roster. To read of Mrs. Harding’s social triumphs in the White House, her cheerful greeting to the hundftds of visitors in a week, and the thousand and one things ich must occupy her. one would wonder that she finds time for sentiment. But that she does”was shown early last* week, when the six blind sol Institute for the Blind, at Roland Park, came to call on her. - The préss told of the beautiful basket they made for her, all lingd wjth Harding blue. But there was another phase of the visit. The men | longed to know what the first lady was like, and they asked her. Then they “saw” her as onfy the sightless can see. They felt the material of her dress and asked the color, asked about her hair and eyes, ran their fingers over the bead necklace she wore, and afterward seemed quite able to describe her. "l'o keep pace with last week, this week will end with its first moving picture wedding—that on Saturday of Miss Natalic Sellers Barnes and Mr. Mark Reid Yates, when a “movie” man will take the entire ceremony, and perhaps a film or so, at Rauscher’s, where the reception will take place irom 5 to 7 o'clock.

The plan to present worthwhile plays for chil- dren, long-talked of, was finally put into operation when the Holton Arms gymnasiym w made over into a temporary theater, with a well- equipped stage, and started success- fully with “A Lady Here and There, a dramatization of a Hans Christian ‘Andersen-tale. . The Helton Arms Theater is of In- terest to society, because many promi- nent- persons are supporting it ‘and making ‘it a center of experiment fox more-ambitious efforts later. The fdea of providing professional productions for boys and girls has been, so far, well developed. and reflects much credit upon the director of the plays, Mrs. Glenna Smith Tinnin. Assisting her as members 'of the company are Miss Pauline Eddington, Miss Caroline McKinley and @ group of young ac- tors from New York city. The men who have the principal parts in the company, have been associated with the Theater Guild. the Provincetown Players, the Neighborhood Playhouse, all of New York, and other organiza- tions that have made a success of the little theater idea. They are young college men who have been in plays on Broadwiy, and doubtless will win popularity with girls who have lived beyond the bread and butter age, ux well as the children who patronize the theater. Among those who indorsed the aims of the theater at the meetink held last Tuesday at the residence of Mr. William Phelps Eno were Mrs. C. C. Calhoun, Miss Mabel Boardman, Mrs. Theodore Tiller, Mrs. Grace Porter Hopkins and Mr. George Julian Zolnay. Others who are giv- ing their aid and approval are Mme. Pezet, wife of the ambassador of Peru: Mrs. W. Wetmore, Mr: 8. Burleson, Mrg. Theodore W. Noyes, Mrs. Larz Anderson. Mrs. - Avery Coonly. Mrs. ‘William A. White, Mra.
