Army Dances Listéd. BY SALLIE V. H. PICKETT. HE awakening of Washington to its normal state of activity in | the Midautumn season is particularly interesting and a pleas- ing change from its interminable round of dining and dancing and juggling of tea cups at afternoon receptions in the Winter season. Those whose affairs call them to the Capital or those who return for the mere delights of the early season are engaged in open- ing their houses, house hunting or attending the social entertain- ments that crop up. EACH delegation of foreign and native men and women who come to attend congresses or conventions calls for & new program of entertaining and the President and Mrs. Hoover have proven them- selves capable hosts on many occasions, even when the thermometer registered at an unholy’ degree of heat. PROSAIC enough sounds the International Road Cengress, but it will bring to Washington ‘about 600 foreign delegates represent- ing 60 countries who must be shown American hospitality. The President and Mrs. Hoover will open the White House for a recep- tion, the Secretary of State and Mrs. Stimson will hold an evening reception in the Pan-American Unicn Building and there will be an interminable round of entertainment especially for the 100 women attending the convention. EBUTANTES who as yet form an incomplete quantity and start out with a list of 60, which %enerally dwindles a third before the season starts, are going to be given an early rush by debutantes of former seascns and instead of the usual formal ball where girls barely meet there will be a tacky party, Tuesday night, October 21. The invitations have gone out printed on brown paper with much confusion in spelling and construction and a footnote announces that “tackey costooms” are required. It will be the first time the fash- fonable Ma{flower has housed a rag-tag party, but beneath the startling raiment will be the smartest debutantes of Washington. HE Secretary of Agriculture and Mrs. Arthur Mastick Hyde have ruthlessly snatched away the only cabinet bud in sending their daughter, Miss Caroline Hyde, back to college and asking that she be not included among debutantes. Her one grand flare will be a tea dance which Mrs. Jacob Leander Loose of Kansas City will give for her when she comes home for the Christmas holidays. 'O feature of Midwinter life in the Capital is anticipated with more delight than the series of Army dances given each season at the willard Hotel. This season the first dance will be given at 9:30 o'clock, November 21, and other dances will follow on January 2, February 13 and March 13. The committee has as its honorary chair- | man, Mrs Charles P. Summerall; Mrs. Charles H. Bridges, chairman; Mrs. Merritte W. Ireland, vice chairman. Mrs. Leonard T. Gerow, | treasurer; Mrs. Robert H. Dunlcp secretary, and Mrs. John W. Gulick, | Mrs. Everett S. Hughes and Mrs. Howard C. Davidson on the enter- | tainment committee PLEASANT journeys to pleasant places always catch the fancy of ‘Washingtonians, and many besides those directly active in the movement will motor to Stratford, Va. at the end of this week to attend the second annual exercises on the anniversary of the death of Gen. Robert E. Lee, held in his birth place, Stratford Hall, next Sunday. Mrs. Charles Dana Gibson is national publicity chairman for the Robert E.
