BY SALLIE V. H. PICKETT. ASHINGTON, the city of parks and waterways, retains its | fashionable population much longer than does any other city in the country, and while Newport and other resorts are filling up with fheir Summer contingent from New York Philadelphia and cther cities, Washington society is leisurely stray ing off to its country homes, revealing at country clubs or contenting | itself with week end visits to seashore and mountain. RS. HOOVER gave her first garden party last week, the first she has given since becoming mistress of the mansion, and though it was altogether pclitical, being for the League of Republican Women in the District, it was a beautiful affair, with all the earmarks of a White House garden party such as has lent color to the Spring sea- son for some years past. Women in public life, at the polls or else- where—even on the floor of the House—no longer wear somber and simple garments, but dress quite as if they devoted every moment of | eir lives to pleasure, so the Republican -women wore real garden | party frills and gave a delightful atmosphere to the event. | ASHINGTON soctety is a little appalled at the prospeetive visit | of Sir Ramsay MacDonald, premier of Great Britain, lest it fall in late July or August, a time when the Capital is almost bereft of distinguished citizens and when the impression of our climate might | not be favorable to a stay of even a few days.
