The third and last Bachelors Cotillion was to take place on night of Febru- ary 8, but it has been advanced to Tuesday night, February 9, and only | the Georgetown ass y and a few other important local things are left to clash with the Bal Bohe Dinner parties, which in an ear period of ‘Washington life would have been con- sireder in doubtful taste in Lent, now g0 on quite as though the season were not at a close and many important dinners in honor of the Secretary of State and Mrs. Stimson, with Ambas- sadors and Ministers as hosts, are yet on the calendar. Vice President Curtis and his sister, | | Dr. J. shera Montgomery, chaplain of Mrs. Gann, will share equal honors &t the Congressional Club reception Satur- day evening, the event being second in importance only to the reception an- nually held for the President and his lady.

She will be the guest of Mrs. Charles Alger on I street the after- noon of February 8, when Mrs. John William Lyman of Kanses City will also be a guest. The Bal Boheme on the night of | February 8 will surpass in spectacular beauty any of the balls of the Arts Club which have gone before, and with | mystic lighting, the beautiful and ter- rible things of the deep swimming be- fore one’s eyes and even the box decora- tions carrying out the underseas idea, the illusion will be complete. Costumers have wracked their brains for ideas compatible with the theme of the ball and glistening, scaly fish, monster gold- fish, parrot fish, crabs, clams, lobsters and just a suggestive effect of sea-shells and sea-weed came into the making, as well as nymphs, swans and other grace- | ful conceptions, Official and Unofficial Days at Home This Week | The commandant of the Navy Yard, | Rear Admiral Butler, and Mrs. Butler will not receive at the Navy Yard on | Monday, February 1. | Mrs. B.

Flowers Are Lacking. ‘The President’s church, the pictur- esque meeting house of the Society of Friends, was the scene of a wedding yesterday afternoon at 4 o'clock of par- ticular interest not only because it was the first to take place in the edifice, but also because Mrs. Hoover witnessed the exchanging of marriage vows between the two young people, Miss Beatrice Cox and Mr. Lawrente L. Morlan. There was another angle which added unusual interest in the event, for in arranging the details for her wedding the bride dispensed with unnecessary accessories, including flowers for herself and her attendants. The money which woyld have been used for this time-honored bridal finery will go to the unemploy- ment fund. Mrs. Hoover has for many years given the welfare and career of young women: her keen attention, and the First Lady has manifested admiration in the chosen work of the bride, who is a nurse, having graduated from George ‘Washington University.
