After .- __THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, Shoreham Dark Smart people. Smart Things. Smart Places. By the Spectator. Trade Mark Registered. HIS town of Washington is get- | ting downright sensible . . . | people are beginning to play trains again . . . not little people—big people . . . people like young Eleanor Roosevelt, Johnny Elting, Comdr. and Mrs. William Thomas, Mrs. Jock Whitney and Mrs. Hawes Preston . . . it all started the other day when Pete (Heigh-Ho) Maclas bought himself a choo-choo replete with tunnels, bridges, stations, freight cars, lights and a couple of hobos . . . and set them up in the north room of his club . . . loud with delight laughed Mesdames Roose- velt, Thomas, Whitney, Preston and so forth as the train went over hill and dale and all over one of the Heigh-Ho's better carpets . . . loud with delight chortled trainster Ma- cias—not, as yet, in trainman uni- form, but anx- ious one of these days to make train playing a regular feature with his cronies ... So, don’t wish yourself a train for Christmas, but go up to the Heigh-Ho and grow young again . 7 with trains and Pete Maclas . . . isn't there a poem about growing young with somebody anyway? ***Pete’s trains are not, however, the only highspot up at the Heigh- Ho ... the rollicking rollo of this burg has a snug hide-away atop the building, where you may call yourself king if you are permitted to crash the sacred portals . . . Ye Spectator was smuggled in there the other day to ob- serve the maestro as he entertained such celebrities as Gilbert Miller (who whote nice things in the Macias scrap- »ook), Milton Aylesworth, good-looking | Eleanor Roosevelt, the afore-mentioned | John Elting (born in Chicago—educat- | ed at Princeton—newcomer—in de- | mand), Mary Cootes, who says that brother Merritt (diplomat in Hong Kong) wishes everyboly well in Wash- ington, and others, such as Gene | Powers, who could double any day for | Buddy Rogers and no cne would know the difference . . . Yes—up there in | $he Macias crow’s net you'll find the cream of the town . . . all very merry and pleased that they have been allowed a glimpse of this cozy parlor —a parlor where there is a pint-sized piano, Marty Rubin probably asleep on a sofa, a picture of Fifi Roberts on | the wall, and the host himself gener- ously clad in slippers and a grin. ***That was all a mistake about | Marie (La Paree) Fowler . .. it wasn't | one sleuth at all . , . it was one| huncred and one. | *+* Last night if you were a young Hyattsville Democrat, you went to | the Club Michel for a splurge (who | said, by the way, the Michel had closed? It's very much alive and kicking) . . . if you were cold last Monday night. you probably went to the Club Habana and did a Paul | Jones along about 2:30 with other | hot-and-cold neighbors . . . if you dropped in at the Hi-Hat last week | end, you probably found the West- | chester Hillbillies and others making | merry there . . . and if you were smart you recognized Pat (son of Gen- | eral) Johnson, having dinner there. | **¢ The Hi-Hat, by the way, is | doing all sorts of things in its nice, | quiet, informal way . . . Frank | McNey has, for instance, arranged | with visiting actors and actresses to come there and entertain when they | will . . . ought to be fun . . . how about getting Estelle Taylor up there this week? . . . if s0, Ye Spectator will put in an order right now for | & ringside seat. ***Sidney is in clover these days . . . every now and then when he knows that his music is gravitating at top speed in the Mayflower lounge, where, for instance, the Mark Eth- ridges were entertained by Mr. and Mrs. Edwin Williams of New York the | = other day, and other glimpsed included | Gov. Sholtz of Florida, Senora Dona de Juan Chevalier of the Panama Legation, M. and Mme. Jean Appert | of the French Embassy and Gov. Louis Brann of Maine—Sidney pops out to some swanky event and weaves a spell over people knee-deep in blue blood + « « t'other night when the Legare party out at Grasslands had come to After the Show THE SHO-CASE 4449 Connecticut Avenue DINE AND DANCE Supper Dancing 9:30 to 3 A.M.

A resolution was voted yesterday making the ration for each soldier one-half liter (about one pint) daily, instead of the present one-fourth liter. Previous efforts to raise the ration to one full liter met objections from Gen. Louis Maurin, minister of war, who said he did not intend to get Helen Starr, who dances; Harriet Cition, who fan dances, and, of course, Emory Daugherty’s Orchestra to play while you dance.
