Many Striking Changes Mark Social Program (Continued From Pirst Page) yesterday as Mrs. Hyde, wife of the S:cretnryf of Agriculture, who last year followed the custom of her predeces- sors and sent out cards to icial and diplomatic women, is still absent from the Capital. Mrs. Hoover was éi ted to take an early view of the magnificent show, but duties pressed too hard and fast and she did not visit the exhibition during the day. Viewed by many were the favorite | blooms, the Mrs. Hoover, & small clus- fer chrysanthemum with bronzy-red blossoms,- the President Hoover, a little larger, in dull red color with deep cream color lining on the petals, and the sweet Peggy Ann Hoover, bigger than either ‘of the blooms named for her ndparents, and much more up to te. ell white, one might call.the Peggy Ann Hoover, in color, while the are long and loose and 1 "3 much like they ht in coming develop into very large blooms. Indeed, it is a little like looking through the Social Register of the past to walk down the aisies of the glass Touse, for there stands the Grace Cool- idge, named when she was the second lady of the land, tall and commanding and seeming to nod in {riendly way to passers by as the delicate white blcoms with a blush of pink at the heart greet her old friends. The Mrs. Calvin Cool- idge is a smaller blossom of a red color, just such as she wore when the Lady of the Land and there is a bit of a golden lining showing on the under wart of the petals. There is a President Coolidge, and a Gen. Pershing, the lat= ter standing as almost the tallest plant in the exhibition. The huge deep, dark red blossoms are close and firm lookl and remind one of a clenched fist, Much admired is the Mrs. Charles Evans Hughes, big and handsome and of a dark red and yellow color, and harking back in the diplomatic corps is the Viscountess Chinda, a double | pink bloom of medium size. The Sec- | retary Jardine is of the bronze red variety of medium size, while his dainty daughter is represented by the Marian Jardine, which blooms in a fresh rose- pink shade. The Mrs, David Fairchild, a dainty_white flower, is a pretty trib-| ute to Dr. Fairchild, who for years Alled an important place in the depart- ment. The late Mrs. Arthur Capper, & 7reat Washington favorite, is recalled in he beautiful cream white blossoms on he plant named for her. Then a big Mies pflyne and Col.

It offers a delightful solution to the problem of hostesses, where to take their guests in town for the holiday, as few balls are more colorful than that held at the Willard, when the large ball- room, filled with brilliant uniforms of many nations and lovely gowns, rival scenes of famous courts of old Europe. Music for the evening will be fur- nished by the Navy and Marine bands, and gay flags and pennants from the Navy Yard will lend a festive air to the ‘occasion. Founded 27 years ago by Admiral George Dewey, the Navy Relief So- clety is purely philanthropic, hav- ing for its purpos® the relirf of dis- tress among the families of men of the Navy and Marine Corps. Frequently the men who break home ties over night to sail the seven seas for Uncle Sam leave their loved ones ill or in poor financial situations through illness or bereavements. Ofttimes these heads of families never return to their homes lgllll. ‘The founders of the Navy Re- lief Society had in mind the widows nd children and mothers of these men when they formed the organization which helps the Navy and Marine Corps to_take care of their own unfortunates. ‘The annual ball is the principal means of support of the District of Columbia auxiliary chaptér of the Navy Relief Soclety, which takes care of innumer- able families and individuals who other- wise would b= dependent upon the other ehlr{\‘.‘;hlz organizations of the com- munity.
