SALLIE V. H. PICKETT. HE polo ball, big dinner parties and social entertain in proverbial 57 varieties await the pleasure of society this week, and not in years has there been a fuller or fhore attractivg pro- gram laid out. While social events are curtailed at the White House because of mourning, the President and Mrs. Coolidge and their son, Mr. John Coolidge, all are interested in the Easter Monday egg rolling and they will watch with interest the quaint custom of a hundred years renewed. usual there will be some friends of the President and Mrs. Coolidge on south front balcony to watch the sport and several of the cabinet tots will mingle with the throng for at least a short time. HE polo bali at the Willard Tuesday night will gather one of the most distinguished companies the Capital can muster, and nothing could be more charming as an opening event for the little season. brilliant ball mn every sense of the word, there will be a_decided atmos phere of sporting life about it and especially when E. Spike and P. P. Hunter, two prime favorites in horse flesh in the polo world, take their stand at the south end of the ballroom. The decorations will carry out the idea of a polo field with its goal posts and other such features members of the women’s polo teams of Baltimore and of Washington will attend in their polo togs, as will the members of the War Department polo teams and others from out of town. INNER parties assume unusual size and importance this week, the Vice President and Mrs. Dawes being engaged for several evenings, the secretary of Interior, Dr. Hubert Work, being scheduled as host to nearly 30 guests Wednesd while other affairs assume like proportion and importance weddings are of quite unusual interest and there are s make over all lists. Most delightful of the newer arrivals are Mrs. Smiddy, wife of the Irish Free State Minister, and_their three daughters, fresh i bright as Irish roses, with the elder daughter, Miss Cectl Smiddy, quite the prettiest girl brought to the corps in a long time. O many of Washington's social institutions are peculiar to the Capital that usually it would be difficult to signalize any one event, but the congressional breakfast Tuesday, the annual breakfast of the Congressional Club, stands out as one of the most interesting affairs of the Spring. This vear the MavHower Hotel will furnish the setting and many congressional women new to the big social life of Washington will attend. AST night the president and board of trustees of the Corcoran Gallery of Art held the opening private view of the tenth exhibition of American oil pairtings, filling the beautiful marble halls with distinguished visitors. very informality of the event, there being no receiving line, appeals to art lovers, guests, however, wearing cvening dress and thus adding to the dignity of the opening. There were thousands of visitors last_night :l]wl thousands more will visit (hr’\-vhilnlion_ which will continue until May 16 - HE home of Senator and Mrs. Porter H. Dale at 144 B street north- east will he opened at 4 o'clock Wednesday afternoon for a musical given under the auspices of the Congressional Unit of Neighborhood House. There are some mysterious features of the program which Miss Sproul, Mrs. Dale and others are holding as a complete surprise to those attending. The Animal Rescue League benefit Tuesday, and the Girl Scouts benefit T'riday, both afford great opportunities for hours of enjoyment linked | with a helpful spirit. Mr. and Mrs. J.P.
