nae association will be one of the most
delightful social events of the post
Lenten season. May ., the date which
has been selected, will be eagerly
awaited by the many loyal friends OF

which the Higbee Alumnae association
has set itself to do. To this luncheon
are invited every former student of the
Higbee school and every teacher at any
time connected with this institution.

LATEST FASHIONS
AT THE CAPITAL
BY MARGARET WADE.

Everybody in Washington seems to
be somebody" is the naive way in
which a discerning young woman, new
to capital society, expressed her inter
est in meeting not only our present day
dignitaries tWho are still quite plenti-
full despite the conspicuous absenteeS
in Paris, but the son and daughters
Of famous men whose deeds and words
have helped to make our nations his
tory.
The immediate occasion which led
to the very comprehensive remark was
the drawing room talk of Mrs. Roswell
Randell Hoes, the former Miss Rose
Gouveneur, the great granddaughter of
James Monroe, fourth president of the
United States and author of the world
famous Monroe doctrine, Mrs. Hoes
and her sister, Miss Maude Gouveneur,
lifelong residents of the capital, and
fixed stars in its social armament, are
particularly prominent just now, not
only by reason Of their illustrious pro-
genitor but by reason of Mrs. Hoes
contribution to history In the form Of
a collection of famous gowns which
she has assembled and placed in the
National museum, where any visitor
to Washington may study the taste of
the respective first ladies' of the land,
from the time of Washington to Roose-
welt. The latest addition to the COL
lection Is the gown worn by Mrs. Theo-
dore Roosevelt to the inaugural ball Of
March 4, 1905. This gown of blue and
silver brocade should have particular
attention for several reasons, besides
the very obvious one of its historic value,
which 1t shares with other pieces Of
the collection.
gown of American grown and woven
silk, from an American design, and pre-
scented to the wearer by the manufaC-
turers with the assurance that witt her
acceptance of the gift the design would
be destroyed, hence the gown would
remain unique. 1t is furthermore the
last inaugural ball gown even worn by
the presidents wife, as this Roosevelt
Fairbanks ball was the last so-called
function Of it's kind ever given. The
ball arranged In honor of the Taft
Sherman inaugural was abandoned by
reason of a short, sharp and sudden
storm that descended on Washington
March 4. 1909, while President Wilson
made 1T clear before leaving Princeton
In 1913 that this time-honored Cele
bration would be eliminated from his
inauguration, a resolution repeated four
years later to the great ~disappoint-
ment of the majority of inaugural Wis
itors.
Mrs. Hoes in describing the museum
collection of gowns limited to those OF
the respective mistresses of the white
House, unconsciouSly contributes to the
history of good dressing, as she wears
an always modish and becoming eve.
ming gown of rare old lace inherited
and treasured by many of the Monroes
and Gouveueurs. which is brought NJ
to date over a foundation Of soft black
satin draped on becoming lines.
Miss Maude Gouveneur in walking
down Connecticut ven one morning
recently, wore a conservative, but well
tailored suit in serge, black with white
collar, cuffs and waistcoat, and as us,
