Society Folk Rush Away From Horse Show to See Miss McIntyre Wed Inter-American Equine Classic Witnessed by {Senhora de Aranha to| Many From Near and Far—White House Social BY SALLIE V. H. PICKETT. AY groups of society folk met yesterday to the beat of ‘ ; horses’ hoofs when the first series of equestrian stunts of the Inter-American Horse Show came off at the East-West Highway, and Ambassadors, Ministers and lesser dip- lomats, officials of the Government and society folk looked out over their heavy wraps on the brilliant scene. Of course, soclety was somewhat- divided, hundreds—and, be it said, Washington long ago crossed the prescribed 400 line and has, like appropriations, al- most outgrown itself—went to Balti- more for the foot ball game, Secre- tary and Mrs. Swanson and their party being the most conspicuous figures in the assembly of thousands who yelled, cheered and rooted until they were hoarse. Then weddings. The “most beauti- ful wedding”—as the amateur always starts it—seen in Washington in many moons was that of Miss Marie Mc- Intyre, daughter of the secretary to the President and Mrs. McIntyre, to Mr. Frederick Hays Warren, attended by Mrs. Roosevelt, and caused many to hasten away from both the foot ball game and the horse show to see the lovely bride walk down the aisle of the Francis Asbury Methodist Church Bouth, on Sixteenth street. Certainly the first Methodist bishop (Asbury), cloaked and mounted on his steed atop a high pedestal in that vicinity— an excellent statue—must have come to life for a moment as he looked out over the splendid array at the church wedding, a marked contrast to the rugged early days of old Virginia, when a wedding, generally speaking, was but simply the taking of a bride. Mrs. Warren, 2d, an artist to the fingertips, planned her own wedding in its every detail. And the horse show folk again, when hundreds met for the briliant dinner and dance at the Mayflower, given in honor of the Ambassador of Chile and the miltiary teams of the Repub- lic of Chile and the United States Army after their frantic bout on the turf in the afternoon.

Girl Scouts! Honor Birth Of Founder Tribute to Juliette Lowe Feature of Observance. Girl Scouts while observing Host- ess day as part of National Girl Scout Week are commemorating today the | birth date of their founder, Juliette Lowe, who was born October 31, 1860, in Savannah, Ga. It was there that she organized with eight girls what was to become the Girl Scouts of America. From this small group which met for the first time in March, 1912, has grown an organization including 382,790 Girl Scouts. In Washington there are 2,777 Girl Scouts comprising 104 troops. During the past year 723 volunteer workers have helped in Scout work here, directed by four paid workers, including a director, two fleld captaips and an office secretary. The Girl Scouts is one of the organizations receiving grants from the Community Chest. Y Juliette Lowe lived in England many (years of her marristi life and it was there that she became a personal friend of Robert Baden Powell, the founder of the Boy Scouts. Through him her interest was aroused to or- ganize a similar organization for girls in the United States. Mr. Powell was a visitor in Washington during the Summer. Shortly after her death in 1927 the Juliette Lowe Memorial Fund was started to sponsor International Girl Scouting. The fund L used to send Betty Couzens, duughter of Senator James Couzens, and Margaret Cotter, daugh the fans. Maj. Gen. and Mrs. Peyton er of Mr. and Mrs. J. J. Cotter, among ~—Harris-Ewing Photo.

She chose for her wedding a gown of white satin, which was de- signed with & soft, becomingly high neckline and a shirred front and dol- man sleeves to the bodice.

Their turbans and slippers were silver, and they car- ried bouquets of red roses, tied with silver ribbons. The flower girls, little Louise Bon= nycastle Butts and Beverley Bender, cousins of the bride, wore Kate Greenaway frocks of white taffeta made with long sashes and long skirts and carried old-fashioned bouquets of red roses. Small Logan Bruce acted as ring bearer and wore & for- mal cutaway suit, all white. ° The bridegroom had as his best man Mr. Carl Kempf of Bloomfield, N. J, and the ushers were Mr. L.
