Therc was music during the trip and a_bountiful luncheon, with many kind hands to lead the sightless guests about the boat and explain it, and to vividly describe to them the scenery along the river banks. -Col. Thompson is one of the semi-Washingtonians who has always given his strong support to all local interests, and many times he has repeated his courteous attention to the blind. He also is in- terested in the benefit concert of the Columbia Polytechnic Institute for the Blind, in Memorial Continental Hall, Tuesday evening at 8:15 o'clock. ARDEN PARTIES are becoming settled forms of entertainment as May days grow fairer, and one of the charming social events of this week will be the annual garden party which Mr. and Mrs. Kauffmann hold for their friends at Airlic. and this year to be given Saturday afternoon. The home of Mr. and Mrs. C. C. Glover, on Massachusetts avenue ex- tended, and other suburban homes in the vicinity of the Capital, are the visiting points for society folk, who stop by in their motors for a little visit and a cup of tea in the most informal manner. VENTS for charity, too, are taking on their most attractive phase, and garden parties reign supreme. The House of Mercy garden party and iete Friday afternoon. held in the Cathedral Close, lends an annual pleas- ure to its patrons, and even though it falls this year, as last, in horse show week, it will have a splendid patronage from every source. The Oriental fete at Twin Oaks presents.a far, diffecent vision than.that to be had in the Cathedral Close, but being on both car and bus lines will assist ma- terially in carrying Washingtonians to the corner of Massachusetts and Wisconsin avenues, while the broad avenues leading to the close are an added attraction for those in automobiles. lRelief Soclety in the grounds of the Soldiers’ Home the afternoon and Annual Horse Show.
