CONDE BERLANGA, Attache of the Spanish embassy, just arrived, and Condesa Berlanga. Social Program in Capitai Maintained at High Mark During Lenten Season | Comparatively Small but Conspicuously Delight-j ful Events Listed, Including Cabinet Dinners | for President and Mrs. Coolidge. ! | | BY SALLIE V. H. PICKETT. UNCHEON and dinner parties have grown so large since the beginning of Lent as to appear like clearing houses for social | obligations, but they are delightful events, nevertheless, and the companies are remarkably well selected for compatibility and social and political interest. The Cabinet dinners for the Presi- | dent and Mrs. Coolidze have been practically small affairs and the | dinner party which the Secretary of Labor and Mrs. Davis—the last | of the series except the dinner which the Speaker of the House gives —will end these functions for this season. | THE President-and-Mrs. Coolidge have been generous hosts during L the past Winter and from now until early Summer their activi- ties are likely to be confined to smaller dinner, luncheon and tea| es in the White House. Tourists, who wander around the White | ouse lawn outside the high iron fence are greeted by Rob Roy, the| collie, who scampers along as close to the fence as possible and wags | his splendid brush of a tail in friendly fashion. He is a cordial in-| mate of the mansion and certainly likes companionship, standing | sometimes for minutes on the high bank at the east side of the lawn overlooking the Treasury and surveying the crowded traffic way. ’I'OMORR.OW the Secretary of Agriculture and Mrs. Jardine will hold the first of their annual receptions in the glass-covered | houses on the grounds of the department, when from 10 to 1 o'clock | they will receive the most distinguished members of diplomatic and | official society for the first view of the annual amarylis show. Were | Mrs. Coolidge here she would .follow her custom of former years and be a guest, but invitations have been extended the Vice Presi- | dent and Mrs. Dawes, the members of the Cabinet and of the diplo- | matic corps and their ladies, and to members of both houses of Congress and their wives and other officials and friends of Secretary and Mrs. Jardine. The exhibition will later be open to the public | and it is well worth a day's travel to see, with a larger number of | blossoms than at any previous show. ! HILE large and formal dinner parties are being given, many} interesting events go unheralded down the social annals, and one of them was the luncheon which Mrs. Herbert Hoover gave a week ago for Miss Setsu Matsudaira, daughter of the Ambassador | of Japan and Mme. Matsudaira, whose engagement to Prlnce[ Chichibu, brother of the Emperor of Japan, has been announced.| Mrs. Herbert Hoover, jr.. of Cambridge, Mass., was a guest of her| husband’s parents, and assisted Mrs Hoover in the hospitality. The | guests included Miss Alice Brooks Davis, daughter of the Sccretaryl of War and Mrs. Davis; daughters of the French Ambassador and | Mme. Claudel, SBenorita Catalani, ward and guest of Mrs. Henry F. Dimock, and other girls from diplomatic and official society to the | number of 18. Coming right on the cabled description of the wonder- 1ul wedding robe of Miss Matsudaira, it was doubly interesting, and | the charming bride-elect, who spezks faultless English and French, ! chatted away in an interesting manner of the wedding costumes | of her native land ICE PRESIDENT and Mrs. Dawes have been guests at two of the largest dinner parties, that given by Mrs. Jacob Leander | Loose at the Mayflower earlier in the week, and the dinner party | of last night at the Willard with Senator and Mrs. Bingham as, hosts. Tomorrow night Senator and Mrs. Willis will give a dinner 2t the Willard for Vice President and Mrs. Dawes, and later they will have the Ambassador of 8pain and Senora de Padilla and other | personages as their hosts. HE Secretary of B'a!(:‘a‘ud'Mrs. l/;;fl:)ug, who were hosts at a inner in the Pan-American Union Building last evening and |hudaira, were entertained at several large dinner parll«‘;fi last w_;r‘k, will hcl""'{;.;\.’l"- guests zt other diplomatic dinners in the near future he Ambas- | DU T Mme.

Another event of wonderful interest 15 that for which the Regents and Secretary of the Smithsonlan In- stitution issued invitations, con; ing of the formal opening of an exbibition of contemporary British oll paintings under the patron-| of the Ambassador of Great Britain, Sir Esme Howar This eznibition is in the National Gallery of Art of the National Museum, vomorrow afternoon. from 2 1o 4:30 o'clock. ‘There, too, the guests | v pumber the most distinguished members of the diplomatic corps and officia) and resident soclely Mies Parker and Fiance Miss Edith Ethel Combs Honor Guests at Dance Mr. end Mrs, Richard Porver Duvic- | Miss Edith Ethel Combs entertained wm, Mr snd Mre, Hugh Auchincloes, sy bridge st her home in Chevy Chase Mre Felicia Pearson snd Mise Louise | yesterday afternoon.
