Public Shows Never-Failing Interest in the White House *And the Executive Family “‘Pride in Official Home Never Wancs—Bvents of Week Briefly Noted—First Lady at Rapidan Camp. BY SALLIE V. H. PICKETT. HE public’s interest in the White House and the Chief Execu- tive and his family never laxes from Inauguration day to Inau- guration day; and even though the mistress of the mansion is still rusticating at their crude little lodge on the Rapidan River, in Virginia, society pricks up its ears whenever a guest arrives or departs from the mansion. A visitor for a brief period last week was the former Vice President, Gen. Charles Gafes Dawes, who is returning to England to resume his duties as Ambassader in London. MRS. HOOVER is enjoying her rest in the mountains and several times since going there has entertained a guest or two infor- mally. Mrs. Hyde, wife of the Secretary of Agriculture, returned to Washington from the primitive little lodge last week just in time to attend the Lewis-Huston wedding, and other guests have tarried with Mrs. Hoover for brief visits in the mountain retreat. ’I'HERE is no intimation of when the annual White House garden arty for the World War veterans in hospitals in and near ington may be iven, but there was a charming compromise in the garden party which Mrs. McCermick-Goodhart gave Thursday afternoon for the veterans at Walter Reed. They arrived 250 strong, and at tea time those who were most disabled were seated at small tables. There was music and an interesting program arranged for them, many of Mrs. McCormick-Goodhart’s friends as well as the , attendants from the hospital assisting. SOCIE'I'Y has made its annual shift from the drawing room to the garden, and wherever there is space enough in the open to set) a tea table, it is there that one’s friends are entertained. -There is scarce an event, from weddings to dinner parties, which has not some outdoor feature, and invitations for swimming parties with tea following are never-declined. The number of pools connected with the fashionable homes of Washington’s suburl grow apace, with perhaps the largest pools at the home of Mrs. Anne Archhold, beyond Georgetown, and the one at Evgmay, in that quaint little city. i WEDDINGS have grown in size and importance as June nears an end, and that yesterday of Miss Alice Huston and Mr. Fulton Lewis, jr., in the Church of the Epiphany,on G street, broke all pre- vious records for size. The guests who filled the edifice were repre- sentative of both officia! and, resident society, but, unlike the Hagner- Roebling wedding—the last very large wedding to take place there— there were few diplomats present. 'HIS week’s weddings are quite as interesting as those of last week, that of Mrs. Nina Swalm Reed and Rear Admiral Frank Hodges Clark interesting a large number of Washington residents. Mrs. Reed is an lm{nmnt factor in the literary and club life of Washington, as well as in service circles, and it is pleasing to know that Admiral Clark has been assigned to duty in Washington and that she will continue to make her home here. ! pREPARATIONS are already afoot for a big spectacular and alto- gether unique show at the Arts Club early in'October, when the whole of Washington will join members of the club in making merry at the several days’ fair and market held in the garden, theater and rooms of the club. Charles Dunn has made for the club the cleverest sort of a little folder, setting forth the ways and wiles of the-sale and exhibition for the benefit of the Arts Club in paying for its recently remodeled addition. 0 , party for Veterans at ] Langley Park Thureday Mrs. McCormick-Goodhart will en-| gpeaker at a garden tea at National fertain 200 disabled soldiers from Wal- | Woman'’s S at Miss Mary Jean Simpson Guest Speaker at Tea Miss Mary Jean Simpson will be guest Party Sunday afternoon ter Reed Hospital at a garden party at|$:30 o'clock. ~Her subiect will be - romat Tier country . -place,; Langley - Park, | pier remno o BeiO A % “Thursday afternoon from3 to 7 o'clock. mmmhmmm” KS.
