one big reception at the Pan-Ameri-
can Building on Friday night. This
was a beautiful party, as all parties
at the Pan-American Building are.
The gardens were Illuminated, as they
always are during the warm weather,
and a little half grown moon made
its contribution to the beauty of the
scene.
The invitations went out in the
name of the governing board of the
Fan-American Union, and John Bar
rett, played the host, standing at the
entrance to welcome the coming and
speed the parting guest. Whoever
may be giving party at the Pan
American Building It Is always IN
part at least John Barrett's party,
since he is director general of the
Pan-American Union. He is always
on the job with a genial greeting for
everyone and an inexhaustible supply
of pretty speeches for the cookbook
ing women.
The last days OF the conference
were marked by the announcement
that President Wilson had issued a
call for the convocation Of the second
Pan-American financial congress to
meet in Washington on January 20.
1920, to confer upon the after-the-
war financial situation in the Amer
icas, so we've another important Pan
American gathering to look forward
to-. This one should be particularly
interesting as each of the South and
Central American republics has been
asked to send its minister of finance
and two other delegates.
