The New Social Secretary.
Al social secretary in Washington
may make or break, not only an off,
,ial hostess but the official himself,
Il sufficient care is not observed in
tie selecting of one. The appoint
ment of Miss Edith Benham as conf.
iential clerk to Mrs. Norman Gait,
President Wilson's fiancee, and social
secretary at the White House, has met
with very general approval, for Miss
Benham is well known socially in
Washington and has made name for
herself in woman's new and attractive
field of labor, the work of a social
secretary. s.s
Miss Benham Is the daughter OF an
admiral and the granddaughter OF q
commodore, both in the United States
navy. During her childhood and young
girlhood she was the petted child OF
distinguished parents. She. and her
mother travelled widely, following her
fathers ship to many ports all over
the world, the child acquiring her edu
cation en- route. She learned to speak
beth French and Spanish and has a
knowledge of Italian. s
She has been popular dinner-guest
with some of the most formal, most
exclusive companies the nations cap
ftal has known, and has personal ae-
quaintance with some of the worlds
greatest diplomatists and statesmen,
Honolulu star-bulletin. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu, Hawaii]) 1912-2010, 1915-11-13

She knows Washington and what
there are Of Washington people, for
that class il small but of rare quality
and as nearly aristocrats as American
people can be.
What is known as the "old resi-
dents,r or cave dwellers," Is the most
delightful class of people, born Of
the best blood Of the country and ctl-
tiyated from study. travel. association
and ample means, either In this or a
former generation.
Miss Benham Is secretary of the
Society of Sponsors Of the United
States Navy, and. with Mrs. Daniels,
wife of the secretary Of the navy, Is
one OF the charter members Of the so
ciety She was sponsor for the crais-
er San Francisco, when her father
was stationed on the Pacific coast. and
later for the torpedo boat Benham,
named for her father and grandfather.
First, the social secretary must he
q lady born and bred. with education
and environment She must be one
who has had everything worth having
In iife It is absolutely necessary for
her to have had actual experience in
Washington society and to have learn
ed that Il is an objectionable crime to
permit the wife Of q United States
senator to step IN or be seated ahead
of the wife Of an ambassador. In
fact no one may properly precede an
ambassador or his wife except the
vice-president Of the United States and
the members Of the cabinet. Indeed
the state department itself stiIl holds
that only the secretary Of state and
his wife may precede an ambassador
and his wife. the other members Of
the cabinet following the ambassado rs,
but the other is the general rule.
Not only is 1t necessary that this
question Of precedence be thoroughly
understood by the social secretary.
but she must also know each and
every individual in the wealthy, resi-
dent and unofficial circles, for they
mingle greatly IN recent years. Men
and women of modest incomes but
distinguished families and of personal
attachments are sought after by the
officials and it is necessary for the
invitation list-mAker TO know the per-.
sonal ana social standing OF all whom
her employer may meet. ssa
The social secretary usually serves
tea on her employers reception days.
While she pours the tea she scans
the visitors, and while bIithely asking,

sleeping quarters for himself. and
where he slept two or three nights

rested were hired to assassinate Gen.
eral Carranza.
The prisoners now are undergoing

divulge the names of prominent plot
ters. Thus far they have refused to
betray their comrades. General Car
rama no longer sleeps at San Juan de

rama has cause to expect recognition
IL he removes his capital to Mexico
City and re-establishes communication
with Vera Cruz. Gen. Pablo Com
zales will make a desperate attempt to
carry out this military plan.
Prominent constitutionalists declare
that Secretary of State Bryan has
promised to recognize them under GER

capital must be in Mexico City.

Mexican conditions to the State De-
