YOUNG FOLKS PARTY

| Yesterday was the eighteenth wedding
anniversary Of President and Mrs. Roose-
| Welt. They were the recipients OF con-
| gratulatory messages and letters from all
parts Of the country. The anniversary was
quietly celebrated by a family dinner party
at night.
| Tonight the President and Mrs. Roose-
welt will entertain at dinner. and have in
vited number of young people to come IN
afterward for a musicale. These invita-
| lions have included some of the debutantes
and the sons and daughters of cabinet
] households.
| It has been week of great enjoyment,
| socially, and in anticipation since the in
vitations for the events of the next three
weeks have been showered about gener-
ously 1t has also had a wedding far out
of the common. the Campbell-Leiter union
| of Tuesday, which was the quietest and
most rapidly arranged international affair
that any West End mansion has witnessed.
| The coming of the bridegroom one day
and his departure with the bride on the
! next, the arrangements made and cere-
| mony well over in the interval, shows
truly American progressiveness. There GER
| tainly could not have been happier we'd
| ding, because it formed the elimination OF
| a four years romance, and the bride has
l a
| soldier, whose nature she particularly ad-
| mires. The only pity is that all her friends
could not have been there to have seen the
becoming richness of her wedding gown
| and to have heard the music that invested
! the scene with the appropriate beauty.
| There were just eight witnesses to the
ceremony.
Another charming young foreigner will
| join the debutante group this winter in the
| person of Miss Kathleen Bourke, niece of
| the minister of Hayti and Nine. Leger.
Miss Bourke, who is only seventeen, has
been educated in Paris and London, and
came just from school in the latter city,
whence she accompanied her aunt back
| and very pretty. Nine. Leger took her
youngest abroad to enter him at a
school near Paris, where her elder son has
spent the past four years. The boys are
| very happy to be together. Nine. Leger,
who was in mourning last year for her sis
| ter. is quietly resuming her social duties,
| and now keeps her reception day at home.
