SO SOC Secretary of State CIETY. IETY and Mrs. Kellogg Hosts at Closing Social Event for Pan-American Journalists. HE Secretary of State and Mrs, Kellogg crowned an in- teresting series of receptions, dinners and lunchéons given in_honor of the delegates to the first Pan-American Union Con- gress of Journalists by holding a re- ception in the Pan-American Union Building last evening. A more bril- liant serles of events for visitors from other countrles has mnever been equaled, embassies and legations combining with members of the cabi- net and other higher officials as well as important persons in unofficial ranks in doing honor to the writers and publishers. The visitors and those asked to meet them were seen to the best possible advantage at the reception of Secre. tary and Mrs. Kellogg for the reason of the splendid adaptability of the Pan-American Union to such purposes, the air of warmth and beauty lent by the generous use of flowers which are seldom seen in the decoration of the building and the charming, hospitable air of the hosts. 1t seemed fitting that the last and largest reception for the visitors should be held in the building in which their countries have a part and in which the highest representatives of those countries are frequent hosts. The Secretary and Mrs. Kellogg stood at the head of the broad marble stairway in the Hall of Flags, where hang the emblems of each country represented in the building, and just hack of the hosts was a hedge of pink rambler roses, showing a tall hedge of forsythia above it. The same graceful use of the flowers was made between the arched doorways and again in the great audience hall, where the guests gathered for chatting and dancing. The lower rooms of the building were used for the supper, which, like the vest of the entertainment, was in keep- ing with the dignity and generosity of the hosts. Tall baskets of pink flow- ers adorned the tables, and, without the least crowding, guests gathered in little groups to chat and dine. Mrs. Kellogg wore a charming gown of powder blue crepe chiffon, embroidered in tiny beads of the same shade. The gown was made along straight lines with flowing panels of the chiffon outlined with blue irides. cent beads, falling from each shoulder at the back. She wore a sapphire pendant on a platinum chain about her neck and_sapphire earrings. Senora de Tellez, wife of the Am- bassador of Mexico, wore a gown of white georgette crepe incrusted with rhinestones, with which she wore a lovely Mexican shawl of blue and zold.
