RALPH WORTHINGTON and her attractive blond daugh- ter Ethel have just returned from a fascinating two months abroad. They motored on the continent and needless to say, ended up in London for the Coronation. Their friends made life very pfieasant for they were included in many of the gay parties—week ends in the country and all the things that made that week a never- to-be-forgotten one. They motored on up to Scotland where they stayed at historical old Buchanan Castle near Glasgow, which be- longed to the Duke of Montrose. Mrs. Edward Gibson of Baltimore and her daughter were with them, makinga perfect foursome! When we hear of all the interesting official parties con- nected with the Coronation, we remember the Queen’s Garden Party we attended at Buckingham Palace in 1926—which was historical in a way, for it was the first time—if our memory serves us correctly—that the Labor members of Parliament were present. To the amazement of the usual dignified per- Jectly dressed group there suddenly appeared guests in bowler hats and checked suits. One of the unwritten laws of course, is that no one stares or crowds Royalty, particularly at one of their own parties. A small silken cord was stretched across the lawn and under a striped tent sat their Majesties Differ- ent guests were brought up and presented, and stopped for a few moments’ chat—meantime all the other guests wandered about partaking of the delicious refreshments and conversing with friends. But not the new Laborites—they had come to see Royalty and they were going to see it! To the horror of all the conservative Englishmen they suddenly saw the mew members of Parliament climbing on chairs and staring oder the heads of others just as one would do at a good side show at the circus! That was too much for some of the most ultra- conservative and Very quietly but firmly the chair standers suddenly found themselves suspended in midair chairless— trying to descend to earth as best they could! We have incidents as amusing as this right here in Washing- ton. Not as much as in the old days, for today with all the broad- i | ening effect of radio, movies and quick transportation—one learns fast! Many a time in the old days a Congressman from “‘way out i|yonder” would arrive at his first dinner party with the “little MRS. HILTON D.

It was a long drive into the country éhen;with no refreshment stands at which to stop and have a cool rink. Memories of the past were evoked last night by the pres- ence of Mr. W. C. Marrow, one of the founders and charter members of the club. We learned that the two old oxen heads complete with yoke, that hang above the bar were a present from Mrs. Clarence Moore, the mother of Lloyd Moore, hus- band of beautiful Eppes Hawes. Mrs. Moore, nee Miss Swift of Chicago. had the heads mounted and presented to the club, Walter Wilcox added many stories, for he knows a great deal of the history of the club.

It always surprises us to find so many friends remaining in Wath_q_ton during these hot months! There was one large dinner given at the club by the William Reyburns. Among their guests were the Lee Warrens, and Betty and Emmons Smith—Betty is leaving for New York and Long Island within the next few days, but will return here before attacking the Canadmr; Wilds! Also Marion Trumbull—looking smart in a green chiffon dress who was waltzing about with Ralph Hill. In another party were Colonel and Mrs. “Rash” Hackett of the P. W. A, the Sydney Taliaferros and the Gould Lincolns. We dined with the Brinkley Smithers at their lovely house in Rock Creek Park and went on to Chevy Chase later. In our party were the Marshall Exnicioses, Eva and Harold Hinton, “Chick” and Bill McCracken and Walter White whose beautiful wife has departed for Nantucket. Half the fun of daneing on the terrace at Chevy Chase is the visiting which goes on from table to table’ The Marquis of Sant’Orsola came over and joined us after the Italian Ambassador and Donna Matilda de Suvich with whom he had been dining, departed. We saw also Prince del Drago and Count Roberti with the Robert Joyces and Grace and George Pulver. These club dances mean a great deal to the members and their friends who remain in the city, for there are no private dances at this point and at least twice a week it is a meeting place for every one to find out who is here and make their tennis, golf and other engagements. The 1925 F Street Club for our private luncheons and dinners, and the fine old Chevy Chase help us carry on through the Summer! AND BY THE WAY—It will come as a distinct surprise to many, the transfer in a few weeks, of one of the most important Ambassadors in Washington. He will return to his own country for special work there.
