MOON SHINES ON THURSDAY
NIGHT DINNER At ARTS CLUB.

The Thursday evening dinner at
the Arts Club was also one of the
rotable events OF last week. 1t was
u heavenly night, with great golden
moon hung overhead, and the tables
at which the members and their
guests-seventy strong-were seated
were laid out in the picturesque gar
Den. Afterward, however, the COM
pany moved indoors into the pleasant.

Lose anything he might have to say
in the strains OF jazz waited in-trom

Mr.. Lawrcncc's subject was the two
ccnventions-Rep and Demo-
cratic And he gave some details OF
the inner workings of things which
were both illuminating and interest
ing to those OF us who watched the
conflict from afar. He spoke very
freely. with the knowledge that the
club was in executive session, as II
were. But ! don't suppose 1T is be-
traying any confidence to quote one
thing he said-the statement that at
tendance at the third party convcn-
tion had restored all the Illusions
shattered by the other two confer
cnccs. One might deplore the COM
promises made necessary by 'prac-
tiCal politics." but as for Impractical
politics" as displayed by the embryo
third party in convention assembled -

also amusing to hear Mr.. Lawrence

Mr. and Mrs. 6. \. Lyon. jr., were
hosts for the dinner on this occasion,

the club. George Julian Zolnay. the
vice president, DR.. Mitchell Carroll,

However, to get back. 1t wasn't a
very full Cabinet meeting that the
President had last Tuesday-but II
probably served its purpose--of find
ing out what they thought. or. as ono
woman expressed it. telling them
what to think" There were compare
lively few of the Presidents official
family in town. The Vice President
and Mrs. Marshall are still in the
West-loafng, which Mr.. Marshall
claims is the Vice Presidents constl-
tutionalIy allotted occupation when
Congress is not in session and he is
consequently not presiding over the
Senate.
Secretary Colby is here-at least
he's here today and in New York or
Philadelphia or Cleveland tomorrow.
Anyhow, he's on his job as Secretary
of state. Secretary Houston Is in
town very much as Secretary Colby
is-only a little bit more so. For the
moment, however-and this included
last Tuesday--he's with Mrs. Houston
and their children at their summer
home at Woods Hole. He's due back
the first of this week. The Attorney
General is in general way in town
although he, too, has been spendlnS
the greater part of the last week
with his family and chanced TO be in
New York attending coal conference
the day the Cabinet meeting was held.
Secretary Baker, ever faithful, Is
sticking close to his desk. l don't
believe he's had his proper thirty
days leave since he came to Wash
ington. And Mrs. Baker is here, too,
although most of her family are de-
voting this weekend to a motor trip
N 'rPtnrninG' her
aunt, Miss Ida Streper. and Miss Mary
Davis, who have been visiting at
Beauvoir.
The Burlesons are also herein
their rather empty house. For their
daughters, except Miss Sidney Burle-
son, are all married and gone. And
Miss Sidney is gone much of the time,
although she isn't married-yet. She's
now at Cape May with her elder sis
ter, Mrs. Richard Van Wyck Negley,
and the Negley boys. And the Mere
diths-the Secretary of Agriculture
and Mrs. Mercdith-are back. They
got here on Sunday and they're .en-
tertaining a little house party over
this week k-end, having as guests Mr..
and Mrs. Earle Butler, who have been
motoring through Canada; Mrs. Roy
S Ray and her daughter, Miss Mar
garet Ray. They are all from Des
Moines. The Merediths future plans
are a bit uncertain, but Mrs. Mere
dith rather expects to be here most
of the time from now on.
This accounts for such of the Cabi-
net members as were available for
Cabinet meeting. OF the others, Sec
retaries Wilson and Alexander are a.
their respective homes-the one in
Pennsylvania, the other in Missouri,
and Daniels and Payne are on their
way home from that Alaska trip, on
which they started at the close of the
convention. Mrs Daniels -has gone
out to meet the Secretary in the yell
lowstone and they are headed East
by rather circuitous route.

White House Is
Back in Society
Affairs Again

THE white House is actually be-
ginning to figure In the society
columns again! First a lunch
con for the French Ambassador and
Nine. Jusserand. on the eve OF they
departure for France. Another lunch
con following an important political
conference of the Democratic stand
ard bearers. A Cabinet meeting-well,
no, OF course that's not society
news" but it's only the third the
' President has held since he returned
8 20 the White House last autumn. The
arrival OF a\guest, Prof. Stockton AK
. son. the return OF Miss Margaret
Wilson, who has been in New York
for several months-and one may ex-
pect any Friday or Saturday now to
read that ''The President and Mrs.
Wilson" have packed their grips and
gone gayly off week ending down the
Potomac on the Mayflower.
Miss Wilson is probably only here
for few days-just to have a glimpse
OF her father before she starts off for
her round OF summer visits. She
seems to be making her headquarters
In New York and visiting the William
Gibbs McAdoos at Huntington, L. J.,
from time to time. But probably she'll
spend some time with the Ross Davids
MIR. David is her singing teacher,
and usually manages her concert
tours-in Connecticut before the sum-
lner is over. That is almost always
part or her summer program and
usually, too, she stays for a time with
Mr.. and Mrs. Francis Bowes Sayre at
Their little cottage at 'Sconset.
h Miss Wilson has done no singing
Since her return from her trip abroad
when she gave recitals in the camps
and cantonments of thea. Il. F., and,
it was given out in the spring that
her voice had suffered from the
strain. She was trying by means of
rest and treatment to get it into con-
dition again and one hopes that her
efforts have met with success. How
ever, I've not heard of her making
any engagements to sing this sum-
gmer.

MID-WEEk DINNER DANCE AT
CHEVY CHASE CLUB POPULAR.

The mid-week dinner dance would
seem to be the time and the Chevy
Chase Club the place at which every
body who is left in town gets togeth-
er these days. Last week it was a
particularly nice party. Col. and Mrs.
Clarence Ridley had a dinner, with
the Serbian Minister and Nine. Grou-
itch and General March as the rank
ing guests; and Mrs. Sherman Metal
lum entertained little company

she leaves tomorrow to spend the
next month with Mr.. and Mrs. Arthur
Lee at Gracelands. Mr.. and Mrs. A.
Garrison McClintock were also dining
and had several men at their table.
One of the South American diplomats
had a big party, with many OF his
Latin-American conferes-and their
wives-in the company. and there

SIR THOMAS LIPTON'S VISIT
FAILED TO MATERIALIZE.

The promised visit from Sir Thomas
Upton didn't materialize. He was
expected at the British embassy for
few days once the yacht races were
over-but the races took so long in
getting over that il now seems rather
doubtful whether he will get down
here at all. The British Ambassador.
Sir Auckland 'Geddes, will get away
as soon as his duties permit-possibly
this week--and will go to Dark Har-

during his eight years service as
secretary of the Red Cross. DR..
Axson has been a frequent visitor at
the White House and for time when
his duties kept him in Washington he
had an apartment here.
Rumors still persist that "the sum
mer White House will>be established
here-"the summer White House wwill
be established" there; but apparently
the persons least concerned are the
ones they concern the most. There
are absolutely no signs of the Presi-

use the front yard of the White
House as a public park. It's an old
story to them, and about the only
time it really worries them to have
the big gates on the Pennsylvania
avenue side of the White House
grounds closed is when they have
lout-of-town guests! who have
natural desire to get a closeup of the
big house, which they, as taxpayers,
are helping to provide for their Chief
Executive. But even the real Wash
Iingtonian to whom the White House
inside and out is an old story, is ir-
ritated at the sight of those closed
gates and the big policeman stand
ing within.
They were closed that early Febru-
ary day of 1917 when the President
was telling Congress that Germany
was insisting on unrestricted sub
marine warfare and at the same time
was handing the German ambassador
his passports. Every one admitted the
prudence of closing the gates at
this time when feeling for the father
land ran high and might express it,
self in violence, mistaken for pa
triotism. But after the armistice,

might not come again, and wanted

them look in-why, they have felt,
perhaps hnduly, aggrieved.

MAY Be BONES OF HEROES
Uncertainty as to Human Relics Re-
Gently Found Near the Famous
Alamo at San Antonio.

Recently wcrkmen have unearthed
In a portion of the Alamo grounds at
San Antonio bones which may be those
of the heroes of Texas whose bodies
were cremated by the victorious hordes
under Santa Anna.
No effort was made to gather the
bones nor to remove them to the In
closure of the Alamo. They were per-
mltted to remain where they were
found; and garage is to be built over
the spot, the ground where the dis
covery was made being outside the
walls and part of the property which
has gone to commercial use.
The bones were found some 200
feet south Of the wall of the Alamo; ;
and the inquiry made has not fully de-
veloped whether they were those Of
the Texans or whether they were those
of the Indians who were used to build
the ancient mission and who formed
the colony which the friars gathered
about them to till their fields and to
provide the food and the feed they re-
quired.-Houston Post.

Wind Cave National park, South Da-
kota, containing 1O,S99 acres, consists
of series Of long. narrow passage
ways having variations in height and
width, and opening into irregular
chambers ut intervals. There are
three principal divisions, the first. into
which the entrance descends, being
long, narrow tunnel leading southeast.
It extends 800 feet lower than the en-
trance and $50 feet below the surface
of the ground above.
The trail then ascends by stairway
to the upper level of the cave, and
thence through other chambers to the
Garden of Eden, the end of this route.
From the crossroads on this division
there is branch passage leading to
the northeast. Here it joins the third
division, northwesterly to the Pearly
Gates, parallel to the entrance passage.
There are several branches, the
largest leading upward into the Fair
Grounds, 100 feet higher than adjoin-
ing portions Of the cave. 1t Is reached
