Former British Ambassador
Entertained by Friends;
Country Club Is Formed
Special Dispatch to The Tr;bvr.

Columbia Country Club brought all
of the society folk in Washington to-
gether and made the largest repre-
sentative company seen since the sea-
son closed. Mrs. Harding's indispos;-
ton kept her from attending. Just as
it prevented her accompanying the
President to camp Saturday, where
Mr.. and Mrs. Thomas A. Edison. Mr.
and Mrs Henry Ford MIR. Firestone.
Bishop Anderson of Ohio and others
held forth.
However, Mrs. Coolidge, wife of the
Vlce-President,' was present at the
close OF the game and looked as fit as
you please for any phase Of sporting
life, wearing a cardinal red and white
mixed homespun, the goods especially
woven for her and suit tailored and
presented as special gift from the
workers in the factories at Biitmore.
n. c. Her sailor hat, which had a
rather wide brim, was made of bands
of heavy ribbon of the same shade
and was exceedingly becoming.
Mrs Harding's strenuous pace since
going into the White House as it's mis-
tress, and especially during the pro-
lonsed hot wave, proved quite too much
for her, and she had to retire from any
great activity for several days. Her
last appearance at an important meet
ing was at the luncheon of the Senate
Women last week, that being the sec
end time she has had luncheon with
them since becoming the first lady.

lust after the inauguration and is, in

resigned after the Inauguration.
