are invitations to dances during the week in
London. although Ascot parties are not sup
posed to break up for ten days
There can be nothing next week to compare
with this weeks dance at Dorchester House.

royal ball. because there were six royalties in
the opening quadrille. There was another dance

The Labor party is proposing to rlodle 1t WIZ"

The government has neither been helped nor

the coldness with which the affair has been

must not be followed by projects for formal
alliances
