 cial season, unless the army and navy reception be excepted, has been aban- doned. The reception to the diplomats of foreign governments must be fore gone until the war in Europe is over.
 In lieu of the reception the president and Mrs. Wilson are to give two din ners to the diplomats this winter. When there are two affairs, it is pos sibe to keep the warning diplomats asunder. At one dinner there will be present the representatives of the al- lies and a considerable number of the representatives of the Central and South American countries. At the sec ond dinner there will be present the rep resentatiyes of the central powers with the representatives of the other Gen. tral and South American countries who are not present at the first dinner.
 It might be asked why the central l powers representatives would not take offense because the first dinner, the dinner of precedence, is to be given to the representatives of the allies. The answer is easy: Because J. J. Jusse- rand, the French ambassador, is the ranking diplomat in Washington on account of his great length of service. Therefore the first dinner must be giv- en to that group of diplomats which includes the highest ranking ambassa- dor of the city.
 With the diplomatic reception omit ted from the White House social calen- dar, there will remain the three other big receptions, the one to the judiciary. the one to congress, and the one to the army and navy. In addition to these functions every cabinet officer gives what might be called a state dinner to the president of the United States, to which the other cabinet officers are in- vited. And to these a couple of mu- sicales each week at the White House and scores upon scores of dances, re- captions and teas at the various official houses of officialdOm, and it easily can be seen what busy winter society has in Washington.

augural ball, and seemingly the presi. dent is bent on not having one. There was no inaugural ball four years ago. MT. Wilson said mo-" and. of course, the citizens committee, which has charge of the inaugural pro- ceedings, of necessity was forced to bow to the word The chances are there will be no inaugural ball this year, and there is the evidence of dis appointment among the citizenry that was manifest four years ago.
 Inaugural proceedings cost the peo- pie, of Washington a good deal of money. They always have depended upon the inaugural ball to get their money back. The big affair has been the one great public or semipublic so- cial function into which no one has been allowed to enter without a ticket. except the president and vice president of the United States, and their wives, if both gentlemen have happened to be blessed with them. Even the mem- bers of the arrangements committee, the men who do the work, always have paid admission to the ball. The price has been S5 per person and the equal ity of women in the paying matter has been recognized in this, if not in all other matters.
 Ball Money Pays Expenses.
 The money which has come in from the inaugural ball has been depended upon to pay the expenses of the grand stand building, of bands, of flags, of flowers, of the parades of local bodies, and of score of other things which cause Uncle Sam's cash to change from one hand to another. With no inaugural ball, the citizens who con tribute to the expenses of the govern ment will not get their money back directly.
 However there is a silver lining to every cloud, literally a silver lining, because silver is money, and indirectly probably all the good people of Wash ington who put their coins into the contribution box will have them make their way back, even if it is by cir cuitous route.
 In about six weeks an army of car penters will take possession of Penn sylvania avenue. They will erect sight seeing stands all along the way from the state, war and navy building down by the White House, the treas ury and the post office department to the towering capitol. A stand, partly glass inclosed will be erected directly in front of the White House, and there the president, the vice president, their wives, the cabinet officers and their wives, and chief of staff of the army and his aids will view the passing regi- ments and the passing bodies of ciyili- ans.
 Nearly all the residents of the city of Washington who have offices over- looking Pennsylvania avenue will in- vite their friends to view the parade from their windows, or, if they are -hriftily inclined, will rent out window space at anywhere from $5 to S1O a | pair of sightseeing eyes.
