HARRIS & EWING— Reopening of White House Signal For City’s Return To Busy Social Program Return of President and Mrs. Coclidge to Bring Resumption of Customary Activity in Society Circles. SALLIE V. H. PICKETT. ITH the Pres: and the Chief s flag flying at top mast over the White House xecutive and the First Lady of the Land once more comfortably ensconced there, Washington has come into its own. Added interest is given by the several cabinet families now established in their Winter homes and the promised early return of diplomats. The President and Mrs. Coolidge found but few changes in the Nation's home, the state suite, upon which the public has its strongest claim, being changed scarcely at all, but the more private chambers are gay and bright in new decoration. Mrs. Coolidge taboos the extravagant use of flowers, preferring only a few here and there about the executive mansion, and, in keeping with her taste, vases and jars were filled with bright blossoms to further welcome her back to the White House. HE social program for the Winter is as vet a closed book, but every one feels a profound confidence in Mrs. Coolidge doing her full duty to the official_ranks and the world at large. affairs_and will fill her every obligation. She is farsighted in these New members of the cabinet add spice to social life, and their coming again awakens the question of calling between the wives of the cabinet members and wives of Senators. Undoubtedly the women of the present cabinet will accept the old rule, which, after all, was only temporarily and to a small extent disrupted,-and vill call upon the wives of Senators as soon as the season opens. Other- wise, the calling code is a simple one, utterly without perplexities, and the season will be one of full hospitality and good feeling. TPLOMATS at various resorts are slow to leave the cool retreats for ~ the still hot streets of the Capital, and especially will those on the North Shore and Long Island tarry for the athletic program that always fills late September days. While the Minister of Egypt and Mme. Samy will open the early program by entertaining the Secretary of State and Mrs. Kellogg at dinner Thursday evening, but few other important events are scheduled for the month. recognition given that in flying the c J Tuesday marks independence day for the five Central American republics, but it is not likely there w i 1 be further flags over their respective legations and perhaps, where there are enough members of a legation family te make it worth while, a staff dinner. OME exceedingly interesting Autumn weddings are in progress of ar- ) rangement, and that of Miss Margaret Blaine Crosson and Mr. Donald Wiley tomorrow is the first of several interesting affairs of this week. Quite important in Capital society was the wedding yvesterday of Miss Kathariné Beach and Li ut.
