PLEASANT MEMORIES.

Guests that afternoon drifted over
for word with Miss Harlan, and "a
F, cup "of the best tea in Washington"
and very soon drifted back teacups in
| hand to the animated interested group
which had gathered around Mre. Har-
ding and was enjoying the QUICK

and they carried away pleasant
memory which will remain long with
! them.
The dinner for Viviani on Tuesday
night was the first state" dinner Of
| the present sdministrstion-and one
of the smallest parties of-the sort that
the White House has known for
several administrations. II was strict
ly, even severely, official. There was
no attempt to discount anybody's
social demands. or to, give any per.
sonal friends a "look-in." The party
that gathered at the White House
table that night consisted of the
President and Mrs. Harding. the Vice
President and Mrs. Coolidge. 'the
French Ambassador and Nine. Jusse-
rand. the French special envoy NJ
Viviani. the Secretary OF State and
Mrs. Hughes, the Speaker and Mrs.

COOLIDGE INCLUDED
IN PRIVILEGED CIRCLE.

The friendship between the Hard
ings and the McLeans, a friendship of
years standing, seems to be widen
ing to incdule the Vice President and
Mrs. Coolidge. Already Mr.. and Mrs.
Mclean have entertained the Cool
idges at dinner on three separate oc-
casions and frequently Mrs. Coolidge
is Mrs. McLean's guest for one .or
another of the afternoon concerts
which she is fond of attending.
OF late years numerous unwritten
restrictions seem to have sprung up
about the Presidents accepting in
vitations to dine out. 1t used not to
be so--or perhaps some of our Presi-
dents had a faculty. of ignoring re-
strictions. At any rate Theodore
Roosevelt frequently slipped across
Lafayette Square to dine-or more
frequently to take breakfast-with
the late Senator Mark Hanna. APP
parently President Harding means to
pay as little attention to red tape
AZ his illustrous pred zee ssor.
You may recall that the first SUNDAY
after inauguration he and Mrs. Hard
have breakfast with little group
of the Presidents one-time colleagues
in the Senate. And 1t is whispered
that one evening last week the Presi-
dent and Mrs. Harding diEed with
Attorney General Daugherty, Mr.. and
Mrs.. Mclean being the only other
guests. A chumy little party 1t must

which the nation has provided for
her residence for the next four years.
And IL is generally followed by
further comment on the First Lady's
friendliness. her interest in people,
her general "human-ness." Mrs.
Harding is ever so much better
looking than her pictures. She il
softer, more feminine. And she IL

MISS GORDOy's
WEDDING PLANS.

Mrs. Barnett rather startled her
friends with the announcement that
the marriage OF her daughter. Miss
Leila Gordon. to Robert, U1ckey, jr..
was to take place within the next
week. The engagement of the young
people was announced in the winter
of u t19191920. Later IL was broke EN-.
but was renewed before Miss Gordon
went abroad to spend last winter In
Paris. And now the young people
have decided that they want to be
married without further delay.
Miss Gordon has just returned from
Dayton, Ohio. where 'she has been
visiting Mr.. Dickey's parents, Mr.. and
Mrs. Robert Dickey. so preparations
for the wedding will have to be made
somewhat hurriedly. Fortunately,
however. Miss Gordon and her mother
completed the purchase OF her treas
seau while they were abroad. so, since
the wedding is to be simple, there isn't
so very much TO be done.
The ceremony is to be at 4 o'clock
on Thursday in st. Johns Church, and
only members OF the two families and
handful of Miss Gordon's intimate
friends will be present. Miss Anne
Gordon will be her sisters maid of
honor. and Chester Laroche, of New
York, will serve as best man. There

Mrs George Barnett. who has tray-

beautiful and authentic Chinese cos

present who wore the Chinese shoes
and she did not take liberties with
them. but moved around most Be-

Man
OF Bible
IsAttacked
Fair Reformer Says
Translations Are
Wrong; Command
to Obey Held False
BY Earl C. Reeves,

London, Mar IT. Mere man
did the translating of the Bible
and he got it all wrong. In some
very important particulars.
Chiefly in the passages dealing
with women's duties to her hus-
band, and to her back seat in hui
man affairs generally,
Miss X. Raleigh is puttins the
Bibles commandments for wo-s
men right And putting woman-
kind at large right concerning the
imposition upon them which has
endured through centuries. all be-
cause man translator made q
slip.
The New Word of the Law is
this:
'St. Paul did not -
Command women to obey their.
husbands,
FORBID women to preach.
Insist forever and aye. what
ever the fashion of the country.
they should wear hats in church.
Say that they should never
wear jewelry and fine Clothes"
Item number one. the most inn
portant mistake, Miss Raleigh nails
with vigor.
wives were not enjoined by st.
Paul to obey but to be consider
ate to- their husbands. st. Paul
used the Greek word to obey
when he was speaking of children
and slaves. When he was speak
ing of husbands and wives he used
a different word. which has been
translated as be subject to- The
correct translation of this word Is
be considerate to-"
Women were commanded to-
cover their heads in church mere-s
ly because it happened to be the
custom OF the time.
And as for the other errors.
est. Paul did not forbid womer
to preach, The correct Translation
is that he meant women should
not chatter in church. but II they
wanted news they should ask for
II in their homes.
"He did not say that women.
should never wear jewels and fine
clothes. He only bade them leave
their jewelry at home and dress
plainly when they were preaching /,
or setting out on missionary jour-
neys."
Moreover;
God gave gifts to men Is. in
the proper translation. gifts to hui
man beings 50 that women were
included"
