Man Missing at Dinner.
Tiny Hostess Asks DOG

When Rear Admiral and Mrs. Jose ph
selves upon the birth Of their little
daughter Annie, while living in Wash
ington eleven years ago, It never
occurred to them that they were the
proud parents of a future society
leader.
But so it would appear from this
young lady's exploit as a dinner giver
at San Pedro, Calf. where, with her
mother. she is making her home dur

Pacific fleet.
Annie's exploit as a dinner giver
in honor of her mothers recent birth

the Pacific coast in ripple of
laughter. the echo of which has just
reached Washington by way of long
newsy letter
Annie, who has always had a de-
cided talent for all such matters, in
formed her mother that she was not
to go near the dining room, as she
had arranged a birthday dinner for
her.
AS the household boasted a capable
chef and efficient servants. Mrs. Jayne
gave the matter no serious thought
beyond laughing promise to remaiT
quiet and keep her eyes shut unit,
dinner time. when she was to appea,
n regulation dinner party attire.
True to her word, the youthful host
nss did arrange every detail of the
dinner setting and invited the de-
sired number of guests. that is, all
but one. But second thoughts are
= 5ccording to the old adase, best any
now. So at least thought the eleven
year-old, for as dinner was formally
announced by the drawing aside of
the portieres, little Annie danced de-
ightedly up to her mother.
It's all right mother. dear, only
