The ceremony was performed in the Metropolitan Memo- rial Methodist Episcopal Church, the Rev. William Andrew Keese, pastor of the church, and the Rev. Eddy Lucius Ford of Foundry Methodist Episcopal Church officiating before an altar deco- rated with Easter lilies and lighted with white tapers in golden candela- bra. The Gothic interior of the church was dimly lighted by its suspended ceiling lights and the sunlight shining through the stained glass windows. The church was chosen for the wed- ding because it was used as the chapel for the American University during the bride’s attendance there. Preceding the ceremony, which was witnessed only by relatives and close friends, Mrs. Harlan Randall sang two solos and the wedding music was played by Mrs. James Shera Mont- gomery, organist of the church.

Her bouquet was of white gardenias and lilies of the valley and she wore a large picture hat of white horsehair braid trimmed with pale blue velvet streamers. The maid of honor, Miss Helen Field, wore & frock of orchid chiffon over pink, s large leghorn straw hat with velvet streamers to match her dress, and carried a bouquet of pink gladioli. Mr. Frank A.

SOCIETY, s B3 By the Way— Beth Blaine “ALL Roads lead to Rome” it is said, but these last few weeks definitely all roads have led to the Capitol to hear it possible the discussion of the Supreme Court Bill. Yesterday accompanied by Mary Elena Phleger and her sister Inez Lundborg of San Fran- cisco we hailed a taxi after lunching at the Mayflower, and started the trek to the “heart of the nation.” There were long lines of people patiently waiting at each door hopmq for an opportunity to get in. They were a fas- cinating mizrture of people—white haired dowagers, colored workmen, young boys in open necked polo shirts, curly haired little blonds next to little women-with prince-nez. We were Jortunate and got seats at once but like eels every time a better seat was vacated mear us, we moved, until we ended up in the front row of the balcony. It always seems like a very good play as each Senator comes slowly through the swinging doors a whispering buzz arises as explanations are made to nearest neighbors who he is. If he is a popular Senator there are nods and smiles but if he is in high disfavor at the moment no villain ever walked on a stage among more glowering glances—one waited expectantly for a hiss' There were many new faces in the balcony—but amongst them were some of the faithful political wives who are “stand- ing by~ through the heat of Washington. We saw Mrs. Stan- ley Reed wife of the Solicitor-General, in a cool white dress and broad brimmed hat; lovely Mrs. Milkard Tydings wear- ing @ most becoming large black picture hat; Mrs. Peter Gerry who is always so smart and chic, was sitting nearby and Mrs. Richard Wigglesworth wife of Representative Wigglesworth of Massachusetts was also in the group. Mrs. Carroll Miller, clever speaker and sister of Senator Guffey of Pennsylvania, followed with intense interest all the speeches. Bill McEvoy came in for a few moments and we caught a glimpse also of “Chick” MacCracken. ** %o E WERE glad to hear that the Belgian Ambassador and Comtess van der Straten-Ponthoz have returned to South- ampton, L. I, this Summer, for they really loved it there last year and were sooo popular. This season instead of stopping at the Meadow Club—the tennis club—they are searching for a cottage. At the moment they are at the club, but hope to get settled in a few days. Today Mr. and Mrs. Edward Reed bid farewell to the United States as they sailed off for Ed’s new post in Rome, where he will be First Secretary. They are probably about dead with heat and exhaustion since from the mpment the an- nouncement of their transfer was made known, they have been feted day in and day out and evening after evening. Warden McK. Wilson is another friend who has recently sailed away for foreign shores. As First Secretary at the American Legation in The Hague, Mr. Wilson now returns to The Hague to pack up his goods and chattels in preparation to taking up his new position as Consul General at Genoa. Mrs. Wilson meanwhile, is remaining in America with their children as son Eric has been quite ill and the move would not be advisable at the moment. They are dividing their time between New York, where the son has been in the hospital and Mrs. Wilson's mother’s beautiful Flace on the Hudson. Early in September Mrs. Wilson and the children will set sail for Italy to join Mr. Wilson. Amidst the farewells we hear that we can welcome home Helen Davis, second daughter of Mr. Dwight F. Davis, who re- turns to Washington on or about June 28 to continue her studies for the foreign service. Helen will open up the for- mer Davis house on Kalorama road, since she no doubt feels that the Fozhall road house is a trifie large and a touch dreary for one person. Bachelor's quarters have been set up in Georgetown in the Benjamin Thoron’s house. Mrs. Thoron having departed with the children Mr. Thoron has taken in Arthur Krock and George Howe to keep him company. The Howe family are ensconsed in Middle- burg and George spends considerable time there supervising the building of a couple of houses in that neck of the woods and is there every week end, quite naturally. In town just for a few days we find Mrs. W. Forbes Morgan and her father, Robert Jackson. When father and daughter were encountered last evening leaving a movie on F street, accompanied by the Polish Ambassador, they said that they were making their arrangements for their departure for Eu- rope and came down only for a day or two to get their pass- ports, etc. Sarah Morgan was looking as pretty as ever.
