HOPE FOR FUNCTIONS
AT WHITE HOUSE.
The President seems to be coming
back so steady that people are be-
ginning to hope for a measure OF SO
cial activity at the White House this
coming winter. Miss Margaret Will
son WAS here for a little visit last
week--but she comes and goes, drives
out for a day or two with her faith
er and then is Off again.
The Cabinet circle is gradually fill
ing up, Mrs. Houston and her children
and the Secretary OF Labor's family
being among those who have returned
to town within the last week or twoy
David Franklin Houston. jr., the eid-,
est son OF Secretary and Mrs. Hous-
ton, who graduated from Harvard
last June. started last Sunday on his
way to China where he Is expecting
to go in business. L don't quite
know why China. Somehow ] fancy
that the fact that Chares n. Crane
has recently gone out there as Amer
lean minister. has something to do
with the selection. One OF Cranes
younger sons-name % John. believe
was a classmate Of young Hous-
toms at Harvard. and y particular
chum OF his And MRS. Houston is
particularly chummy with his daugh-
ters. and with the Richard Cranes
now in Czecho -Slovakis
The Houstons are lamenting that
they must give up their house on jan
uary 1. 1t does seem a pity that they

leave washfngtonregardless OF the out
come of the elections But the new
owners want the house for their own
use. The house was formerly owned
and once occupied by Mrs. r. T. Stotes-
bury. who sold II last winter when she
bought charming little house in Mas
sachusetts avenue for her daughter,

POLITICAL POSSIBILITIES
FOR MISS WILSON.
The Wilson's had been at their farm
at Blossburg all summer. but are back
at least they are all back but Miss
Mary. who Is spending month or
two up in Massachusetts and will not
return for some weeks yet. i askel
Miss Agnes Hart Wilson the other
day-the first time I've had a chat
with her In months, she was so COM
pletely shut up with her sick mother
last winter--what about the story
that she was running for Congress.
And she assured me with a twinkle in
her eye that that report was in the
class with the famous report of Mark
Twain's demise-"greatly cxsgger-
ated." She says that she isn't run
ming yet. but admits that she may.
1t seems that a certain Mr.. Keefer
was a candidate for the Congressional
nomination, appearing on both tickets
in the recent primaries. Although he
is really a Republican, the Republic
ans turned him down IN favor OF Rep
resentative Keiss, the present incum-
BENT, but the Democrats nominated
him. Thinking 1T over. he decided
that he didn't want to run az a Demo
crat, and withdrew, leaving a vacancy
on the Democratic ticket, which some
of her friends asked Miss Wilson "
she would fll She said she would II
she was needed, but when she found
