 General influences regarded as now favorable included another importation of gold from Canada, S5,5OO,OOO; the bright copper outlook, and more en- couraging prospects for an early sign ing of the peace treaty.
 Public buying expanded to notable extent and material gains were regis tered in a comprehensive list of stocks including the tobacco, food, oil, copper shipping, leather and ice issues.

, Since the marriage of the eldest. Mar garet has presided over her father s house, in which Alice is now "the pretty one-not out" for two years at least!
 When it was decided, after family con ferences with her relative, Mrs. Mark Bristol C1elen Moore of Mobile), and Mrs. Prince, that this was to be Mar garets coming out season, they began to consult with other debs as to days and nights and dates. and announced the tea, to be given by Mrs Bristol, and the dance to be given Miss Margaret Hard ing, by her father, W. P. G. Harding, the governor of the federal reserve board.
 As the story goes, MT. Harding, like ncany other men of affairs, let the fam fly talk of parties and clothes float over his head. Also like other men, he is ad- dicted to every word of the morning pa- per except the society column. Conse- quentiy he did not read of the party he was giving his daughter, and it was mething of a surprise to have friend on the street, threaten him with vio- lence, If youN don't invite me to your dance"
 what dancer" said Mir. Harding, who is man of few words, and looks Seri- ously at you through sold-bowed spec taces.
 At dinner that night he observed in perfectly calm tone: 'I hear that the paper says I'm giving you a dance the twenty-third.'
 So when Margaret decided that there were too many other things on for the twenty-third, and she would put off her ball until a more open night, some one suggested naively, that she tell her father that his party had been post bored"

N COOPERATING very lovely pie IN\ ture of Miss Margaret Harding, z S bearing the lines: Miss Marga- ret Harding, Washington debutante, who says you have to dance from one place to another because of all the parties now going on at the capital" widely read New York newspaper carries a most in- teresting story of this attractive young woman which will be of interest to the large circle of friends of the Hardings m Birmingham and throughout the south.
 Miss Margaret Harding is the second of the three daughters of Mir. W. F. G. Harding, governor of the federal reserve board. and she was born and reared in Birmingham, where she is greatly be- loved.
 The story follows
 Ut is a case of distinction without difference when one attempts selecting the photograph of the prettiest of the seasons buds in Washington.
 Surely no other winter ever collected 30 many beauties in bunch or provided gayer balls for the debs. As though it were the anti-climax of war gloom, joy is unconfined, and there are not enough days and nights in 8 week to supply time for teas and dances.
 That is why Miss Margaret Harding postponed her dance from Monday, De- cemher g until later when she could find an evening without so many parties on the calendar
 Miss Harding is one of the two deos from the federal reserve board, Miss Anne Hamlin, daughter of Charles $. HanaIin, one of the vice governors, being the other.
 Margaret Harding is the second of the three girls who can be spoken of as the Harding sisters and have it equivalent to the Harding beauties. The elder, Elizabeth Cknown to her familiar friends as Lizette), married Frederick Prince, and lives in Boston, although she is visit ing in Washington this winter while her husband is in France.
 She established a precedent in good looks, wit and grace, which was unique in the younger set. But it is evident that Margaret is fully qualified to keep up the traditions, and from the beginning of her social career was distinguished as one of the prettiest and most clever of the de- butantes.
 She is the daughter of William P. G. Harding, the governor of the federal re- serve board. MT Harding is a widower, and with his three daughters has main- tained a charming home in Washington
