Mgs. THENRY G LUMBARD, of Maine. Guest of Represent- ative and MrsWallace White. Winter Social Season In Capital Marked by Dances, Dinners, Parties Past Week Notable for Many Brilliant Events. Luncheons at White House Feature. Debutantes Numerous. SALLIE V. H. PICKETT. ONGRESS in session, M. Clemenceau a guest, the Central American delegates in full swing, many dances, luncheons and dinners and a debutante for almost every day placed Washington last week in the front ranks as a gay capital. The two luncheon parties of . men entertained by President Harding in the White House, the first for “the Central American delegates and that on Thursday for M. Clemenceau, when he dined with the President’s cabinet almost entire, were particu- “larly notable, such events having been almost entirely abandoned siqcc Mrs. Harding’s illness early in the autumn. Worth a chapter of descrip- .tion was the reception which the Secretary of State and Mra, Hughes gave Monday night in the Pan-American Union building, with- all of the delegates to the Central American conierence in line, and with hundreds of importat persons circulating through the great halls and meeting for the first time in several months. is hard to judge the sentiment of a nation by meeting a few officials, and there was deep regret that there was not at least one big open reception arranged for M. Clemenceau to meet the people and get a thrill - of their enthusiasm. As it was, events for him were exclusively and splen- -didly arranged, with but little opportunity for the residents of ‘Washing- _tion who are gathered from, and representative of, every state in the Union »ever having an opportunity to see him. Chances to meet our neighbors, “the Central Americans, will be much more frequent, and entertainments sior them will be the most important events on the social calendar for days to come. For the most, the receptions, dinners and luncheons for -them will not be announced much in advance, as social affairs will not be 7 permitted to interfere with the business routine of the meetings. :THE debutantes are having their first lively little fling in society, and while they are planning a ball of their own, to be known as the debutantes’ ball, and to be given annually for some charity—this one is : for Neighborhood House—they are also devoting themselves to the com- ing-out parties and entertainments of one another, and at the ball at . Rauscher’s Thursday night for the Columbia Hospital they will be out Zen masse in their very prettiest frocks and will assist their chairman, Miss 4 Patricia Ainsa, in making things go. Friday night they will be in the -pageant of nations to be seen at the ball of the Woman'’s Universal Al- #liance at Wardman Park Hotel.
