Aunual Congressional An hmportant Event. chi season the annual breakfast the Congressional Club takes on some new and pleasing phase and perhaps not in its history of some years has anything more delightful than the program of yesterday been given. The ballroom at the Willard was simply adorned with flags, while flowers in profusion were used on the tables and before the large box, where the orchestra was stationed. Pink roses were at a premium when it was learned that Mrs. Coolidge had sent them: from the White House, and while the members of the chib carried away floral souvenirs of the break- fast many were sent to hospitals. The program was a delightful one @nd there was wild applause when Mr. Althouse introduced in his de- lightful group of songs one dedicated i to Mrs. Coolidge and called “O Smile of Jo, the pleasing words written by Mis. W. W. Chalmers, the music by Miss Helen Fromer, and sung by Paul Althouse, leading tenor, formerly of the Metropolitan Opera Co. Mrs. Cool e was very gracious in accept- ng compliment. Mr. Althouse answered & number of encores. Dr. Allen A. Stochdale, pastor of the § First sregational Church at To- ledo, Obio, a cousin of James Whit- comb Riley, recited a number of the Hoosier poet's classics, adding to their interest with a fitting prelude. Mrs. Hadley, the outgoing president of the club, gave a brief opening ad- dress, paying a pretty tribute to the officers of the club and explaining the significance of the varied flowers, State emblems worn by the members. The State flower has never before lay part in the scheme of the and her remarks were par fitting. When Mrs. Coolidge arrived for the breakfast, she wa given a red clover, the emblem of Ver- mont, and a_little cluster of arbutus, chosen as the emblem of M hu- setts, pinning the clover in her snappy looking. black velvet hat and wearing the arbutus as e_cluster. $1.50.
