the vice president of the club, Mrs.
Rodenberg of Illinois, who is
former Washington girl. The feast
was served at small tables, with one
long honor guest tableNa bit raised
from the floor, where thu presiding
officer and the honor guests were
seated. These were Mrs. Marshall,
wife of the vice president of the
United States; Mrs. Carter Glass,
wife of the secretary of the treas
ury; Mrs. Daniels, wife of the sec
rotary of the navy; Mrs. Champ
Clark, wife of the speaker of the

presidents of the club, the members
of the executive board and the
speakers. AT the end of it femi-
nine peace conference was opened,
with Mrs. Edmund Platt of New
York, in students cap and gown,
as moderator. Quite the most elev-
er speaker Of the occasion was Mrs.
w. P. Borland, who as France"
spoke in adorable broken English,
making a plea for France to con-
tinue to rule the world in fashion
and admonishing the women of the
world to observe Conservation ma
terials" in their gowns. Universal
sympathy was extended Mrs. Bor-
land only a few hours later, when
she received the tragic news of her
husbands death several days be-
fore in a hospital in France, where
h went on an inspection trip.

was introduced at the peace table,
Mrs. Jouett Shouse, wife of former
representative and soon to be assist
ant secretary of the treasury, Jouett
Shouse Of Kansas, as bolsheviki,
rushed into the conference and de-
manded to have a place at the peace
table, while she waved her big red
scarf, but she was forced to make an
ignominous retreat from the face Of
the earth, and then Japan appeared,
in the person of the widow of Repre-
sentative w. G. Brown, jr., of West
Virginia, who was formerly the
popular actress Izetta Jewel. She was
piquant and Modest Japanese and
demanded that she be permitted to
control the tea market of the world,
now that several famous beverages
had been taken from the several
great nations. She also pleaded for
the control of the sale of her beloved

lection to all smaller nations. After

ACTRESS TELLS SECRET
A Well Known Actress Tells How
to Darlen Gray Hair With a
Simple Home Made Mixture.

Joicey Williams, the well known
American actress, who was recently
playing at the Imperial Theatre in
st. Louis, Mo-, made the following
statement about gray hair and how
to darken it:
"Anyone can prepare a simple
mixture at home, at very little cost,
that will darken gray streaked or
faded hair, and make it soft and
glossy. To a half pint of water add
/ ounce of bay rum, a small box Of
Barbo Compound and 4 ounce Of
glycerine. These ingredients can
be bought at any drug store at very
little cost, or any druggist can put
it up. for you. Apply to the hair
twice week until the desired shade
is obtained. This will make gray
haired person look 20 years young
er. This is not dye, it does not
color the most delicate scalp, is not
sticky or greasy and does not rub
off.-Adv,

Our Washington Society
Folks are Rushing Into
the Lenten Season
Country Seems to Have Gone Dancing Mad and Even
When Friends Stop for Cup of Tea
They Have Few Turns"
WASHINGTON Bureau q The Be-

Washington Bureau of The Bee.
HTASHINGTON society is
wv rushing into Lent. A
months festivities have been
crowded into these last few days of
the season." although one scarcely
hears the word season" this year,
so closely is it identified with off
cial entertainments. In fact, there
are those who think that without
the official or state functions there
is no season. There has been one,
nevertheless. A proof that there
has been one will be the great fes-
tivities set for Shrove Tuesday eve
ming. There have been balls and
balls, several in a night, time and
time again, and Friday night of last
week there were actually four large
ones IN different sections Of the city.
The country appears to have gone
dancing mad. Wherever two or
three stop to have tea they have
few turns, for almost in every place
where tea is a feature there is
music, If It is only in ones own lit
tie drawing room in an apartment,
where there is sure to be a victrola
and plenty Of dance records. So
dancing crazy are the people of all
ages and all kinds that both men
and women are engaged in teaching
the men who have wooden legs to
trip lightly over the dance floor,
and many Of them have. learned to
do it with such skill that it cannot
readily be detected that one leg is
lifeless one. H

ing and not for dancing. How these
boys and men (but comparatively
few of the latter) may be noted by
the way they flock to the comforta-
bic house, where there is always to
be found a CHEEKY woman, ready to

The Congressional club which has
been so much in the limelight re-
Gently, installed its new officers on
Wednesday, the officers being elect
ed with each new congress, to hold
office through that congress. Mrs.
c. Frank Reavis, of Falls City, Neb.,
the only surviving hostess in the
delegation except the senator's
wives, in the last elections, assumed
her new duties as treasurer of the
club, position of great responsible
ty and work. The club gave a recep-
ton last month to the vice president
and Mrs. Marshall, and another to
the retiring speaker Of the house of
representatives and Mrs. Champ
Clark, which are annual affairs and
always of great brilliance. In nor
NAL seasons the first of their series
is for the President and Mrs. Will

city, and which boasts in its men,
bership, Mrs. Woodrow Wilson, who

Mr.. and Mrs. Walter Penfeld are
sailing in fortnight, being much de-
layed because of their inability to
be assured of their return passage in

from the other side, that it is diff

months. Mr.. and Mrs. Penheld will
go straight to Paris, where the

proud possessor Of a newspaper print
ed during the siege of Vicksburg or
wall paper. 1t bears date of July
1868, and supported the Confederate
cause. Mr.. Philippi was a member OF
Grants army. There are two items in
the papes Of interest One says: "On
Dit--that the great Ulysses-the Yam
kee Gcneralissimo, surnamed Grant
has expressed his intention Of dining
in Vicksburg on Sunday next, and cell
ebrating the 4th of July by a grand
dinner and so forth. When asked if he
would invite Gen. Joe Johnston 1.-THE
famous Confederate general) to join
he said mol for fear there will be a
row at the table Ulysses must get
into the city before he dimes in it, The
way to cook rabbit is first to catch
the rabbit" In another column ap-
pears this significant statement: Two
days bring about great changes. The
banner Of the Union floats over Vicks-
burg. Gen. Grant has caught the rab-
bit; he has dined in Vicksburg, and
he did bring his dinner with him. 6he
paper was exhibited by Mr. Philippi
at the G. A. r. dinner Friday and at
tracted much interest.
