President Hoover Enjoying Period of Fishing at Camp In State of Pennsylvania With Party of Friends He Takes Outing Near Wflliamaport—-cgpital Society Datiny Up for Future Activities. BY SALLIE V. H. PICKETT. HE President was caught in the thralldom of the Spring sea- son _at the end of the week and finished his arduous duties of Decoration day by continuing his journey- from Gettysburg to a fishing camp near Willilamsport, Pa. He took a number of friends along, and the party spent yesterday in fishing. MM. HOOVER still is unable for so strenuous a trip as that to Gettysburg and is contenting herself with hours spent on the south front portico at the White House, where she entertains her friends whenever the weather permits. A tea table and easy chairs under the shelter of gay awnings has transformed the circular bal- cony into a place of comfort and beaut; HE President will entertain the President-elect of Colombia, Dr. Enrique Olagva, at dinner at the White House tomorrow night. Dr. Olaya will dine with the Minister of Panama, Dr. Alfaro, the following evening, and it is probable that Prince Alphonso of Orleans, cousin of the King of Spain, will be presented to the President during his brief visit in Washington. Prince Alphonso arrived in this country on the Graf Zeppelin yesterday. RESIDENT HOOVER will give sittings to Miss Clara Louise Bell, rait painter, of New York for a miniature, for which she holds & commission from the Butler Museum, at Youngstown, Ohio. ‘The Metropolitan Museum selected Miss Bell's portrait of Miss Laura Newell Veissi for its permanent collection. Wx-m.n the crowning social event of last week in the Capital was the garden party given at Woodley by the Secretary of State and Mrs. Stimson, scarcely less interesting and much more thrilling was the scene at the Anacostia Naval Air Station yesterday after- noon for the great aeronautical show, when society en masse crowded into the seats and on the stands to witness the Curtiss Marine Trophy race. Limousines and every type of automobile, including Army ambulances, carried their load of passengers to the station, and the | scene was one of remarkable interest and brilliancy. S!:LDOM has an open-air event in Washington held greater inter- est for society than the air race, and the Secretary of the Navy, Mr. Charles Francis Adams, hastened back from a trip to Annapolis to witness the start. Mrs. Adams had Mrs. Lamont, wife of the Sec- retary of Commerce, with her, and from the family of the Vice Presi- dent on through the executive family, the diplomatic corps and other branches of society one met friends and acquaintances. HE other big outdoor event of the week, over which society still is zhlmng. is the garden party Tuesday at Woodley, with the eretar! of State and Mrs. Stimson as hosts. It was a delightfully arranged affair, with just enough formality. One of the most inter- esting features of the afternoon was the attendance of two former Secretaries of State—Mr. Charles Evans Hughes, now Chief Justice of the Supreme Court, and Mr. Frank B. Kellogg. Still another famous Secretary of State was recalled in the attendance of Mrs. U. 8. Grant, 3d, formerly Miss Edith Root, daughter of Elihu Root. While one met about all of the diplomats accredited to Washington, officials from all branches of society were there, with an unusual number of Senators and Representatives. WASHINGTON society is awakening to the fact that a much more | comfortable Winter social season will ensue by giving more heed to the early selection of dates. Each season there is a mad rush from place to place as the fashionable world tries to make a dozen calls in an afternoon or be in a half dozen places at once. There are heartaches for the hostesses whose entertainments, left for the last visit, are usually abandoned altogether.
