Plans Being Formulated - For Busy Social Season Most Strenuous in Years Mrs. Coolidge Summons Ladies of Cabinet toi Discuss Program of Activities Which Will | Embrace Entire Winter. 11 SALLIE V. H. PICKETT. OCIETY is losing much of its chaotic, if delightiul, phase of the early autumn, and well defined plans are being formulated for one | of the busiest seasons known in the Capital in years. Beginning | with December and running riot through the winter months there will be an incessant stream of entertainment, with a few overlapping dates which can scarcely be avoided. Washington is adopting more and more the custom of other large cities in giving balls, teas and receptions in hotels and clubs, and before December is+fairly on there will bg scarce a vacant night at any of the more popular places. HAVING announced the official program for state receptions and din- ners at the WhiteHouse, Mrs. Coolidge is calling about her at the White House Wednesday all of the ladies of the cabinet, to discuss their own social arrangements for the winter, and the social plans in general of the executive family. For the first time since becoming President, Mr. Coolidge attended the theater, he and Mrs. Coolidge, with a small party, occupying a box at the first presentation in Washington of Drinkwater'’s “Robert E. Lee.” Mrs. Coolidge is attending the concerts with a good deal of regularity, and both are receiving and entertaining at the White House informally. The Governor of Arizona and Mrs. James E. Campbell, Mr. Frank Munsey and others were entertained during the week at dinner or luncheon, but without the aspect of a formal dinner or luncheon party. MRS. COOLIDGE carried out onc of the White House traditions by having the wives of Supreme Court justices as her guests for a cup of tea Wednesday afternoon. To Mrs. William Howard Taft the if was of especial interest, too, since she once presided over the White House as its mistress, and held a like ceremony each season. To most of the other women of the Supreme Court circle the visit was only novel, in that it was the first time Mrs. Coolidge had received them in her capacity of first lady of the land. MRS. COOLIDGE is standing as sponsor for all of the more important benefit balls of the early season, though it is not likely she will at- tegd any of them. The President does not like a ball, and is frank about it. She has given her name as sponsor for the very interesting ball the night of Thanksgiving eve for the benefit of the Episcopal Eye, Ear and Throat Hospital, and for the very smart annual Navy Relief ball on Thanksgiving night. Associated with her on both occasions are the wives of cabinet members, the wife of the Chief Justice, Mrs. Taft, and other personages in society. Commander Theodore Charles Jewell, who has for years given his assistance in making the ball a social success, is, as usual, chairman of the floor committee. REAR ADMIRAL ANDREW LONG is chairman of the floor committee for the Navy Relief ball, and admirals and naval officers of lesser rank, with the foreign naval attaches of embassies and legations, will tend much toward gathering a brilliant and notable company of dancers. Rear Admiral and Mrs. Joseph Strauss have taken a box for their debutante daughter, Miss Helen Strauss, who will fill it with the belles and beaux of the season. Mrs. John Hays Hammond is a box holder, and her daughter, Miss Natalie Hammond, who is coming to Washin’gton about that time, will invite other buds of the season to be with her. Mr. and Mrs. Hammond will come to Washington this week to open their lovely Tudor Gothich house overlooking Rock Creek Park. VERY city has its particular pet institution f;)r debutantes, i E Washington it is the Junior League. This year has added o romsbo of well known girls to the list, and among them Miss Helena Lodge, daughter of Mrs. George Cabot Lodge and granddaughter, of Senator Henry Cabot Lodge, who i now the guest of her grandmother, Mrs. Charles L. McCawley, and Miss Betty Ives, daughter of Mr. and M. James Ives of Worcester. Miss Ives will make her debut perhaps 1 January, but she is going about with the season’s buds, just as does Miss Lodge, for whom her grandmother, Mrs. McCawley, will give a tea at Grasslands December 4. E of the sprightliest of dancing events will be the Chi; O dance and cotillion given by Dr. Loren Johnson for ‘:ie:ed:::h“:: Miss Nevill Johnson, the night of November 20, at the annex of the Metropolitan Club, which will be finished by that date.

Among those who will become part of the official world wWhen the Sixty- elghth Congress convenes are the re- cently appointed senator from Colo- rado and his interesting family. They are also among those who have taken time by the forelock and have come to the Capital in advance of the great rush and secured a pleasant home in the suburbs—3411 Woodley road— which they are now occupying. Mrs. Adams had an eye to several things When she selected this charming lo- cation, the closeness of the Cathedral School, which thelr two daughters are attending, and the lure of the open, which is indispensable to Colorado Dpeople, accustomed as they are to the Breat spaces and plenty of sunlight and green woods, Senator Adams, who was appolnted to succeed the late Senator Nich and about whose selection such aovr: nent democrats.as former President Wilson and Mr. William Gibbs Me- Adoo were engaged in a controversy With the governor of the state, comes of a distinguished family of demo- crats. His father was governor of the Centennial state for ten years and had, previous to his election, been a member of the first legislative con- ventign, which framed the constitu- tion.

Mrs. Adams, like her husband, is a native “of Colorado, but while the senator was born in Pueblo where his kindred have lived since coming from Towa, she was ushered into this world in Denver. Her parents were -origl- nally from upper New York state, but have lived more than thirty years in Colorado.” She was, before marrying | Alva Adams, 2d, Miss Elizabeth Natty { and received her education in Denver | and lived there continuously until she established her home in Pueblo some fifteen years ago. There are four children, Ella, thirteen and named for { her mother's elder sister, Mrs. Fred Orman of Denver. Mrs. Orman mar- ried a son of former Gov. James Brad- iley Orman, who came, likewise, from Iowa and was elected by the demo- crats in 1900 and served two terms. The second daughter of the senator trom Colorado is called for her moth- er, Elizabeth Natty Adams, and, with thie elder daughter, has been enrolled in’the Cathedral School. She is twelve years old.

But she has never blindly followed party leads, especlally in lo- cal elections, when, with other fem- inine voters, she has scrutinized the record of candidates to see how they stood on school questions, on keeping the city immaculate in regard to san- itatlon and public thoroughfares. Naturally, since she married into one of the livellest and most influential political families in the state, she has been content to permit the men to run for office and to do the active cam- palgning. Mrs. Adams is devoted to her needle and she spends part of each day, even in the busiest season, over her mend- ing basket.
