Robert Thompson, Mrs. Hewitt Wells, Mme. Ekengren and Mr. and Mrs. Walter Tuckerman. The fact that the lists are closed has caused much disappointment among many persons fond of research | and antiquarian studies, and it is; suggested that the heirlooms exhibit- ed on the occasion, informally as table decorations and inspiration to fnter- esting conversation should be exhibit- ed somewhere the following week, be- fore they are packed away again for a long period. It may be remembered that in November. 1921, an unusual exhibition of guch things was held in the parish house of Old Christ Chureh, Alexandria, under the man- agement of Miss Helen Cummings, and that people came from many quarters to make sketches of the rare old silver and furniture shown. The plan for the exhibit at the breakfast does not permit of larger articles, but chould the later show come off, it would include furniture also and family portraite, many of which hang on the walls of Washington's more exclusive homes and are never on! view. | Dr. Don Ricardo J._Alfaro, minister | of the Republic of Panar the principal speaker Fri International Association letters, when a Latin Ame: ning be held.
