HOOVEI’ Conclucles Serl'es 0{ Offlcial Tcas. Vice President and Family Guests. Brides Attract Interest. BY SALLIE V. H. PICKETT. HE list of large official receptions has grown slenderer and more slender still as the season advances toward scorching suns and sultry air, but not so with dinner parties. This form of enter- taining is continuing with unabated vigor with parties perhaps a little smaller, but certainly not less important. However, even the President feels the need of laying aside great formality for these unofficial events, and there is scarce a shade of difference between the dinner parties that he and the First Lady of the Land are enter- taining in the President’s house and those formerly entertained in their lovely 8 street home. RS. HOOVER has held her last of a serjes of teas for ladies of the ccngressional set—charming affairs just large enough in num- ber for real enjoyment, and one is hearing on all sides “and to think she remembered me after a meeting of only a few times.” That is v};’s r( ief charm of Mrs. Hoover’s hospitality.” She is never impersonal about it.
