The rather fippant statement was
made early in last season, that, since
the advent Of the Wilson family in
Washington society, Washington had
gone on a philanthropic Jag Adj
hitting the truth Of the statement, It
has proved a rather pleasing form
OF dissipation after all, and one that
carries with 1t no after regrets. The
Wilson's undoubtedly set the pace, for
a large interest In the needs of
others. and as Washington society
wanted to be with the White House
party, they necessarily were forced
to follow the Wilson example. The
late Mrs. Wilson'S crusade against
the dark and noxious alleys than
were blot on the fair beauty OF
Washington, was only one OF the
charities in which she was interested
and which her daughters are actively
engaged in endeavoring to help.
Last years tarining was good for
society, in that, this year, demands
on their time and services are so
much greater, and many Of the lead
ers are setting precedent in their
active participation in charitable
works.
With the demands made on the
women Of this country by the suffer-
ing and poverty caused by the Eu-
ropean war, Washington has taken a
leading place in the relief work. 1t is
