Interest to Society Folk éresident Assists Mrs. Harding in Entertaining. * Polo Ball Among Prominent Annual Events. Springtime Activities. SALLIE V. H. PICKETT. UCH an interesting medley of social events as Washington has en- joyed in the past seven days has scarcely ever been equaled in a single week, and especially in the little season. Paramount in in- terest was the informal evening at the White House, when the President assisted Mrs. Harding in entertaining a number of their friends with a private view of a new film. It is the first time the east room has been lighted up for entertainment since Mrs. Harding’s illness, and the alfair proved quite conclusively to the public mind that the first lady of the land is not a confirmed invalid and that she will yet be able to carry out her splendid ideas of American hospitality. ERE was the rollicking, dashing polo ball, which stands out as one " of the most important annual events of capital society, and for which the War Department polo players deserve unqualified praise. Following the wholesome, pretty springtime ball for the benefit of the Episcopal Home for Children was the Russian relief entertainment Tuesday after- noon and evening, and all during the week were affairs of unusual im- portance and interest. Gen. Pershing, who cut such a handsome figure at the polo ball, humored the energetic young women of the service by bging their guest of honor at the last of the series of dances given by the Junior Service Association Friday night. IF last week was more nearly an all-American week, this week will start off propitiously as diplomatic week, many members of the corps plan- ning affairs of more or less importance. The Polish minister and Mme. Woroblewska and the Siamese minister are dinner hosts tonight, and Signor Celesia, who soon is leaving Washington, is, with Signoria Celesia, his charming American wife, entertaining at lunch today at the Montgom- ety Country Club. Don Gelaso Caetani, the ambassador of Italy, will be their guest of honor, and he also will be the guest of the minister of Bul- garia and Mme. Panaretoff at dinner Tuesday night, who will again enter- tain dinner guests Friday evening. The minister of Uruguay and Mme. \?rela will also be among the diplomatic hosts of the week, entertaining a dinner Friday night. AN unexcelled treat awaits music lovers in the con Poli’s Theater Wednesday, when the Bakule Chorus of Prague will give a program under the auspices of the American Red Cross and the ifimediate direction of Dr. Frantizic Bakule. It is not just the usual kind of a concert, but one given by a group of forty children—beautiful children, with beautiful voices, whose program will be selected from the wealth of music from Czechoslovakia’s treasure house, the folk songs receiving especial attention. . Dr. Bedrich Stepanek, the minister of Czechoslovakia, will entertain about thirty-five guests at dinner Tuesday, including the officials of the American Red Cross, and a concert will be given at the legation by the young musicians in the afternoon. Their big concert to be given Wednesday has as a sponsor such a well known mysic lover as Mrs. William Howard Taft, wife of the Chief Justice, who never lends her name except to something quite exceptional in the way of music.
