Those with a keen sense OF humor
derived much amusement from the
thought that the President had not
only Thought first" to read his own
messages from the floor of the House,
but that he was again first in that he
is the only President who was ever
known to assist an ambassador IN
celebrating the birth anniversary OF
his king. Strangers not quite used to
official etiquette thought 1t the nrSt
time a President had ever broken the
tradition concerning their not setting
foot on foreign soil. as one terms the
home of an embassy or legation, put
this was a mistake, for the warm
friendship between President Roose-
Welt and the late German ambassador.

changes of visits between them, While
that President also visited the french
ambassador. NJ. Jusserand. with whom
he was quite intimate and with whom
he also frequently played tennis on the
White House courts. Mr.. Taft, too,
broke the tradition, and was known
to make calls at embassies. though
quite unoffci ally. of course. However,
the President ard Mrs. Wilson did not
confine their Monday evening to the
splendid celebration at the Italian en-
bassy, for it was while they were
there and after the most stately for
malities were over that their friends

As the list of debutantes grows apace,
the dinner dance looms into view as the
brilliant mode of introduction. Just as
the old sweet pink tea mellowed by
time and hallowed by generations, as
sumed it's usual importance, Mr.. Hoo
YER director of the food administration,
bobbed up and said it could not possibly
be- that teas were taboo and that thea
ter and ball suppers were also to be dis
continued until further notice. Not even
a debutante could relish a tealesS tea or
a supperless ball, and so the decree is
going forth for the dinner dance. There
is no garbling of words, but just an out
and-out request from the office OF MIR.
Hoover to cut out theater suppers. aft
ernoon teas and fourth meals. and make
the banquet. club luncheon or church
supper a substitute for one of the three
regular meals allotted to fortunate man

Just after the armistice was signed
there were all kinds of rumors about
the various interesting commissions and
boards and what not tearing up root
and branch and leaving Washington
with mighty little ceremony. This, OF
course, was from the unthinking. and
this season. as last, a large part of
washington's anticipated brilliancy will
come from numerous folk from other
