SOCIAL LIFE AT ARUNDEL
AFTERNOON CARD PARTY.
Mrs. Phillips Hostess at Delightful
Function at Arundel -On-tbe- -Bay.

Deer Lodge one of the attrac-
tive cottages on the beach front, at
Arundel-on-the-Ba that lends itself
admirably to entertainment was the
scene of a delightful afternoon card
party at which Mrs. George Phillips
was the charming hostess.
Mrs. Phillips was assisted by her
daughter, Mrs. Gilbert Smith, wife
of Capt. Smith, U. S. Army, (retired),
a most charming woman, and both la
dies made the occasion a happy one
long to be remembered
The strong wind and unfavorable
weather conditions made it necessary
to play cards indoors instead of on
the porch. The living room was made
most attractive and snug with Navajo
blankets and rugs, Jolo lanterns, and
banks of cedar boughs, pine branches,
laurel, and lavender and white asters.
The effect was highly pleasing.
Bridge was the game but there was
table for those who preferred $500.
Prizes were won by Miss Helen Shea,
Miss Sue Courts, Miss Marguerite Bos-
ley and Mrs. T. Lincoln Townsend.
During the afternoon Bryan's De.
light punch was served, and after
the game dainty and delicious refresh
ments of ices, macaroons, bonbons, and
salted almonds were served the guests
from a prettily decorated table the
cover of which was an exquisitely en-
boridered Chinese fine linen cloth. The
centre piece was a mound of
white and purple asters.
The party was the event of the so
cial season at the bayside colony and
was thoroughly enjoyed by the follow
ing, Mrs Maley, Mrs. Medford, Miss
Susan French, Mrs. Shaver, Misses
Helen and Rose Shea, Mrs. Bosley. the
Misses Bosley, Mrs. Graham, Miss
Lorraine Graham, Mrs. W. Nj. Abbott,

send and Miss Eleanor Collins, Mrs.

WILSON'S VICTORY
WILL AID HIS PLANS
Politicians Waiting to See His Pro-
gram Upon National Question.
MIDDLE COURSE EXPECTED.
Administration Program Still In Hand
President Opposed to "Ex-
traYagant Expenditures.

Whether the Administration was de-
pending on success in its negotiations
with Germany to-help President Wilson
in putting through his own particular
army and navy program in the next
Congress. politicians of all groups were
uniting in Washington yesterday in ex-
pressions of opinions that this emphat-
ically was the result his diplomatic
victory would have
On the one side it was contended
that the expansion extremists had been
robed of much of their thunder by the
demonstration that even a very threat
ening controversy can be settled peace
fully if the disposition exists TO settle
it thus.
On the other il was contended that
the -pacifists, who thought the
Presidents attitude too dictatorial. have
suffered a severe setback in the dem
onstration that it really was aimed cor
rectly at an amicable adjustment OF
German-American differences of opin-
ion.
Developments of the last few days
have convinced politicians that the Ad-
ministration plans to shape a middle
course between the big and little army
and navy groups in both parties.
Guesses as to the extent of the army
increase he has in mind and the num-
Der and kind of warships he wants
added to the naval establishment are
only "guesses," it has been stated again
and again.
Just how many more soldiers he
thinks the country needs. his plans for
a military reserve and his program for
navy of increased strength are still
"in hand,' it has been stated repeatedly
on the best authority.
But one thing has been admitted by
Cabinet officers and Senate and House
leaders with whom the Chief Executive
has talked:
The Administration opposes "eXtrav-
agant" expenditures in the interests OF
national defense, which it holds may
be carried beyond the point of reason
able necessity That is to say it con
siders $500, O,0OO,OOO-th sum frequent

Sends Inspector Here to Test Out City
Fire Apparatus.

For the first time ia its history the

out all Of its equipment this morning
for q test by the Underwriters Asso-

The local volunteer FIRE department
has 40 volunteer active members, and
FIVE paid caretakers. The automobile
fire engine was purchased March
1912 and when tested gave pressure
of $40 gallons to the minute, but, to-
day went twenty gallons better, giving
under pressure sac gallons TO the min
ute in a ten minutes tryout, or 20
more gallons to a minute than its ca
pacity.
The steam engine in today's test
was tes ed for fifteen minutes and
threw 5l0 gallon TO the minute or 10
gallons above its capacity. Two hun
derd feet Of nose were used and two
streams thrown one from the plug at
Duke Of Gloucester street and one
fro the Market street plug with one
