SOCIETY Mes. SHEREVOOD A .CHENYY, Who wuntil her marriade yesterda Miss Louise Delano. Q2 was Late Summer Quiet Prevails As Social Set Is Preparing For Brilliant Winter Season Early Activity Will Be Revived Because of Con- ference on Limitation of Armaments—Deb- utante Parties Will Be Numerous. BY SALLIE V. H. PICKETT. ITH the President and Mrs. Harding and almost all of the cabi- net members absent on week end holidays, the early days of autumn have a touch of midsummer quiet, but it is only a calm before the—social—storm which gathers over Washingto.n and promises one of the most brilliant and spectacular seasons the capie tal has known in many years. The little season, with its program usual- 1y made up of such local happenings as debut parties and iniormal: teas and dinner parties for closer acquaintance, will this year assume gigan- tic social proportians, official in trend and decidedly important. All of which is for the delegates to the conference on the limitations. of arma- ments to meet in the Pan-Amferican Union building in November. It is because of this early call for social activity that the President and others of official and residént society must insist upon all the rest possible. DEBUTAN‘DZ— partes will be unusually early this season, and the more important buds are already having dates decided upon for their bringing out, though to be sure, the announcements will not be made for several weeks yet. There will be an effort to place these delightful and important evefits much earlier on account of the visit of the for- eigners to the.confgrence and the unusually large and important official program to be carried out. So far the list of buds is tentatjve, but for a surity there will be a half dozen from the diplomatic corps, including Miss Laura Bryn, daughter of the minister of Norway and Mme. Bryn; Mlle. Inggerd Walienberg, daughter of the mifister of Sweden and Mme. Wallenberg; Senorita Ballivian, daughter of the new minister of Bolivia and Senora de Ballivian; the niece of the minister of Nicaragua and Senora de Chamorro, Miss Adela Enriquez, and Miss Edora Bonet, daugh- ter of the commercial attache of the Cuban legation and Mme. Bonet. THE appearance of other buds is as tentative as the President’s week end outings, but there is sure to be an unusually large number, be- cause of the incomparable setting for their first winter in_society. 3¢ ator and Mrs. James W. Wadsworth may afford one of the loveliest senatorial buds if they conciude to present their daughter, Miss Evelyn Wadsworth, and there will be several other debutantes from the same |a: fford another bunch of clever and at- tractive buds, among whom will be Miss Helen Griffin, daughter of Ad- miral and Mrs. Robert S. Griffin, and Miss Catherine Cheatham, daughter of Capt. and Mrs. J. f' Cheatham, who are at the navy yard. Maj. Gen. and Mrs. Lejeune will also formally present their daughter, Miss Laura Lejeune. From resident society will come Miss Alice Mann, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. I. T. Mann, in company with a long list of others. body. The military branches will a F course, the most important factors in the conference, social and otherwise, will be the President and Mrs. Harding, and particularly is womankind interested in just what Mrs. Harding will do and what she will wear. The rather spectacular shopping trip. she made to New York before the inauguration will, of course, be omitted in the selection of her wardrobe for the winter, and dressmakers and importers who now know just about what she likes and will wear, can send gowns, hats, wraps and other articles of the toilet to the White House, just as has been done in past administrations, from which she may select. Com- tent fitters and saleswomen are always sent with the goods, Mrs. 5 r;ndin( making her selections in the privacy of her own boudoir instead of in the face of a too curious crowd. In point of selection, she will be Ee of the best dressed women who has ever presided in the White use. opening the exhibition of Rumanian art at the Museum of French Art in New York. Thursday, the minister of Rumania, Prince Antoine Bibesco, but carries on the ideas of Carmin Sylva, his consort’s prede- cessor as queen of the realm. For many years the beautiful old queen worked for the betterment of her peo{le. developing and introducing their work whenever and wherever possible, and it was through her that many pieces of the beautiful handwork were brought to the United States some years ago. The queen had some of her most beautiful robes em- broidered by the peasants, the same soft cotton material being used for the foundation of her court robes as that upon which the peasants em- broidered their own holiday garments, the only difference being in the elaborate work. Princess Bibesco, who is now visiting her father, Mr. Asquith, the former prime minister of England, will do all she can, upon her return to this country, to introduce the art work of her husl country folk into society here. THAT the custom obtaining in this country, which is a hard-and-fast tradition, that the President and his wife may not dine in an em- bassy or legation, because it is foreign soil, nor accept private hospitali- ties in Washington, does not obtain in other republics, is shown by the splendidly appointed dinner given by the United States minister to Sal- vador, Mr. Montgomery Schuylér, 3nd Mrs. Schuyler, on August 22, when the President of Salvador and Sefora de Melendez were present.
