MIR. AND MRS. MASSEY
ENTERTAIN AT DINNER

In compliment to Mr.. and Mrs. Phares
Coleman and to Mrs. Arthur Gordy of
Columbus, Mrs. Massey's sister, Mr.. and
Mrs. Richard Massey We're hosts last
night at dinner at their home on Beech
street.
Their beautiful residence was recently
redocerated, and with the addition of a
marble fountain in the central rotunda
and number of superb examples of re-
cent sculpture, it affords unusually love-
ly surroundings for any entertainment.
The dining room, in which the party met
for the service of splendidly appointed
dinner, was adorned with red blossoms
and an abundance of greenery showed
from the conservatory beyond. The CEN
terpiece was high basket laden with
crimson carnations. and the places were
designated by cards whose decoration was
effected in water color sketches of Italian
flower girls, each posed with the bios
SONS in graceful baskets held on her
shoulder. The favers were gilt baskets
filled with bonbons.
Mrs. Massey welcomed her guests wear
ing a handsome dinner gown in the car
nation shade, and her sister, Mrs. Gordy,
was in white. Mrs. Coleman. the other
delightful honoree, also wore a handsome
dinner toilette.

RECOGNITION OF THE
CHINESE REPUBLIC
President Wilson Is Seri-
ously Considering the
Proposition

Washington, March 19.-President
Wilson is giving serious consideration
to the question of formal recognition of
the Chinese republic. His statement
yesterday on the loan question con-
tanned no specific reference to the mat
ter of recognition although many Of
ficials here were of the opinion that
China could find in it comfort of early
acknowledgement of her new govern
ment. The President apparently has
not settled definitely the question of
recognition and 1t was believed tonight
that several conferences on the sub
ject and many meetings of the cabinet
would be necessary before the admin
istration's attitude is defined.
For many months past the United
States has dealt with the Chinese re-
public only as. defacto government
and formal recognition is largely a
matter of sentiment. There has been
an American minister to China and a
Chinese minister in Washington who
have had practically all the power they
would have possessed If recognition
had been given. In the recent confer
ences preceding the Presidents state
ment regarding the pending loans, the
Chinese minister talked with both the
President and Secretary Bryan and 1t
is known that China has been most
anxious that the United States, the
greatest republic. recognize the latest
addition to republican ranks.
The Presidents advisers are con-
sidering this step for several reasons.
China, they believe, would be in bet
ter position to carry on her loan ne
gotiations if she had this official ap-
proval of her new government from a
great power and her feeling of friend
ship for the United States would be
increased with commercial advantage
to this nation.

MISS AGNES WATKINS
AN AFTERNOON HOSTESS

A pleasant Easter party was given yes

who included 80 guests in her invitation
list. Her decorations were typical of tie
Easter season, with violets and jonquils,
ivy and apple blossoms TO make a festive
interior for her home.
Two contests were enjoyed during the
afternoon, one a search for bonbons, the
other an anagram arrangement of 1.-The

In the dining room, from which de-
licious salad and ice course were served,

others who are so generously donating
beautiful flowers, palms and ferns for
decorations, all show their gracious spirit
in work which Is far-reaching In its
scope and effect through the charity
ball -
.'The District Nurses association" Mrs.
Cabaniss went on to say, sis an organiza-
tion which appeals to every man, woman
and child in this community In the first
place. but once during the year does this
organization come before the people ask
ing donation, and 1t is particularly Mt
ting and beautiful that the time should
be the beautiful Easter season! Men
who are not churchmen. women who are
not especially religious boys and girls
who do not pay any especial attention to
charitable affairs-all feel at the Easter
season that they would like to make an
offering, and what more beautiful way
could they choose than just to send a
message to the sick poor of our COM
munity? 1t is a benediction to each and
all of US, this opportunity. Miss Forsman,
the district nurse. who is known and be-
loved of all the poor and suffering
throughout this district, has been called
The Angel of the Tenements.' With two
other nurses she goes on her daily pill
grimage from house to house, no re-
spector of creed or denomination, making
comfortable and happy the sick poor
through the kindness OF the District
Nurses association. The poor mother with
her little babes, sick and unable to work.
is cared for by this association. 1t en-
abes her to be Ill comfortably: to have
some one to make the proper sanitary ar
rangements for her; to give her the
proper nourishment and to know that her
babes are being taken care of. The poor
woman whose daughters work for the
meager sum of 81 or 50 a week can look
forward to sickness and distress with a
CLEAN of comfort when she realizes that
THE Angel of the Tenements' will come
to her and make things easier for her,
when the day of distress is at hand.
When a man is well and poor he does not
need anything for he has the greatest of
all blessings-good health-but when he is
sick and poor, humanity responds to his
appeal with loving graciousness that IS
universal"
Every dollar that is given to the Dis
trict Nurses association through the char
ity ball." Mrs. Cabaniss said in con-
clusion, .goes directly where the donor
intends that it shall go. No office rent,
no paid officers except the nurses, no ex-
penses to be betrayed. but right to the
spot the place where it is needed, to
the sick poor goes the Easter offering
that is made through the charity ball. 1T
is an opportunity that none should miss,
for it is one of beautiful significance,
not only as a boon to suffering humanity,
but as an emblem of the glorious Easter
season"
