White House Social Plans Sail to Include Regular Saturday Morning ReCeptions-Tri- Weekly Teas, Garden Par- ties and Saturday Band Con- CertS

 Washington, March 19.-(Special.) ) Official society in Washington re- fused to wait for Easter Or the con- vening of the extra session of Con- gress to inaugurate it's official en- tertaining, but just started in when it was "good and ready" and enter tained. Thursday was the opening day, so to speak, for on that day the official entertaining under the Hard ing administration took place.
 The President and Mrs. Harding en- tertained at a formal reception in com pliment to the members of the diplomat ic corps and their families and that eve ning dinner party was given in honor of the Secretary of State and Mrs Charles E. Hughes by the dean of the diplomatic corps, the French arbassa. dor and Mime. J. J. Jusserand, the first purely formal and official dinner given for a member of the new cabinet
 Both President and Mrs. Harding, sep- arately and together, began receiving peOple IHIorInally at the WnlIe House from the very minute they took up their residence there, some calling by invita- ton and some without. Mrs. Harding has had small group of women to tea rather informally several times-she received the wives of the justices of the supreme court last Wednesday afternoon at 5 o'clock, for example, It was the usual informal little party, with Mrs Harding receiving, as Mrs. Wilson did. in the red room, with the tea table spread in the same room and presided over by the social secretary, Miss Laura Harlan, herself the daughter of a late supreme court judge. There was a rath- unusual circumstance on that occa- sion-practically all, if not all, of the supreme court call Miss Harlan Laura, and know her intimately. They were meeting their hostess for the first time.
 NOT OUT OF ORDINARY Thursdays reception was very much like parties of that sort given at the ex- ecutive mansion in the past. It took place

thinking Then he would start to read something aloud to her from his pa per and when he was half way through. he would say: Whats the idea of going to sleep while I'm read- ing you a funny storyT and she would say: I wasn't asleep. I just had my eyes closed because the light hurts them. I can tell you everything you read.' Then they would pick up the papers go out in the kitchen and eat some crackers and go to bed about 10."
 Such an account will soon be news, and if the peculiar family happens to live in a small town, visiting news paper correspondents will begin their dispatches:
 This little village, nestling in the foothills of the Ramapo mountains, is all astir tonight over the discovery of a family in it's midst which has an un- broken record of Is years of faithful and unsensational union."

Official Washington Society Refuses to Wait for Easter
 To Lnaugurate Entertaining

iE the blue room, the guests assembling in the east room, with the marin band play ing in the big entrance hall, and tea served in the state dining room. Many of thedip- lomats at Thursdays party attended a function at the White House for the first time, having been assigned to Washington since the last entertainment was given there. Such functions do much to smooth the paths of diplomacy and statesmanship. Many important events of national and international in- terest are the outcome frequently of so- cial events in the capital.
 President and Mrs. Harding attended the large benefit entertainment given for the Southern Industrial Educational as- sociation Thursday evening, which leads one to believe they will be seen at most of the charity balls, just as President and Mrs. Wilson used to be. There are more than a dozen such balls scheduled already for the spring season.
 WHITE HOUSE PLANS
 The W me uouse sVSlot pans are ru- mored to include regular Saturday morning receptions for official Wasn- ington-they would be splendid oppor- tunities for official Washington to get better acquainted with Mrs. Harding and with each other: teas to be held two and three times week for personal friends of the White House mistress and the President; garden parties-how Washington does enjoy garden party at the White Housel-and Saturday aft ernoon concerts on the lawn by the marine band. And the parties won't be just for official and society folks, either; there are to be some for wounded sol diers and former service men and others worthy of special entertainment
 Dinners, both formal and informal, are ba piVan hv the HqrdinpS haps a musicale or two, or may me a series of them.
 The Vice President and Mrs. Coolidge seem to have settled down to a regular course of living. Last week opened with a dinner party given Sunday by MT. ana Mrs. Edward Beale Mclean in honor of the Vice President and his wife. That is the second party the McLeans have given already. when the Cooldges have been the honor guests. The first was the dinner and ball on the evening of March 4.

Just at present the public Is eagerly devouring the dispatches which con- tain accounts of home minutiae in the Stillman, Hamon and Stokes house. holds but public taste Is fickle. If the divorce wave keeps up, stories in marital unpleasantness will lose their tang. The only really big news paper story will be when family is discovered which Is living along in the legal way with no foreign entan- elements. no shootings, no excitement at all.
 FREAKISH FAMILY
 The discovery of such a family will soon be grounds for sending re- porter up to the house with an artist to make some sketches. It might even call for an Investigation, for accord ing to present standards man and his wife who are living quietly to- gether must be up to some mischief.
 The accounts of such an investiga- ton will probably make as novel reading for the public then. as those Of our divorce trials do now.
