Inauguration week In Washing
ton-it was certainly some week.
imagine it is generally supposed
that Just because there were prac-
tically no inaugural ceremonies and
Inaugural parade and inaugural ball
that there was no inaugural cele-
bration-but there was. and then
some. For, after all, those usual
trimmin's of an Inauguration are
largely for the benefit Of the rank
outsiders, to keep them amused and
happy, and give them a chance to
spend their money and feel that
they have had a big time. The OFF,
eial folk have turned out as solemn
and rather boresome duty. but at
least they have been pretty wen
rounded up and one has known
pretty well where to find them and
those who enjoy looking on at the
game have had little difficulty In
knowing where to concentrate their
gaze.
But not so this year, 1t was a
circus of many, many rings, and one
needed a thousand eyes to keep tab
on everything. Society is sleeping
late this morning in an effort to
recover a bit from the strenuous
ness of the past week and to pre-
pare for a gay spring season. The
city seems to have quieted down
some after the excitement of the
inauguration: the outgoing trains
are crowded now instead of the in
coming ones as was the case all
last week People just poured into
town; not only strangers, but So
ciety people, who had wandered on
for a while to Florida, or to the
North for the winter sports. The
hotels were swarming with people,
some flying busily about and others
lounging around and scanning the
faces of passersby to see IL they
should happen to be a notable. Both
the incoming President and Vice
President stayed at a hotel - the
Coolidges ate regularly in the pub
lie dining-room-and all of the new
Cabinet members did likewise. with
the exception of Herbert Hoover,
who went to the house at 1900 $
street, which he has already leased;
and Edwin DENLY, now Secretary of
the Navy. who is a guest of his
brother. Charles DENLY. who has a
home in o street Secretary of
State Charles Evans Hughes has al
ready leased a house, but won't get
possession of 1t until April I.
As there Is to be an extra session
of Congressional fact is about cer-
tain-the spring season will be a
late one and a gay one. with society
welcoming the new official set and
the always-present new diplomats.
Between now and the convening of
the extra session Mr.. Harding will
spend most of his time consulting
with leaders of his party in Con-
Eress as to a definite Legislative
program, so when he comes to ad-
dress Congress for the first time as
President-society will flock to the
Capitol on that occasion-his rec
concentrations to the legislative
branch will have the sanction of
prior approval at the hands of the
directing heads of both bodies of
Congress. And Mrs. Harding will
be engaged in learning the ropes"
of her duties. social and other
