Marshalls were to be here for few
days And they were their hosts on
1 Wednesday night at dinner.
/ Justice James Clarke McReynolGs of
| the Supreme Court bench had dinner
for them on Monday night getting to-
| gether as many of their particular
friends as could be rouHded up at short
notice.
1t was Wednesday that they had
luncheon at the White House. OF
course they had called, promptly, as a
| matter of courtesy. And the luncheon
was arranged at the earliest available
time-and was as informal as a White
! House luncheon can be-which under
the present regime probably means as
informal as any meal to which any
we'll to do American citizen, accus-
toned to living with dignity, would
have for any personal friend. The
Hardings and the Marshalls are per-
sonal friends. President Harding sat
under vice-President Marshall for six
years in the Senate--and Mrs. Harding
was charter member of the ladies
of the Senate. having come In at the
start when Mrs. Marshall gathered the
Senate women together and organized
Athem for war work. So there was
nothing formal or perfunctory about
that luncheon.
Mrs. Marshall looked as well as pos
sible. and had some smart clothes, as
pefitted ono just back from wandering
through Europe. And the former Vice.
President seemed a little stouter. and
looked rested.
The Ladies of the Senate, having
reassembled for the pleasure of seeing
Mrs. Marshall are going to have an
other luncheon next Tuesday, when
they will be the guests of Mrs. Tasker
Oddie and Mrs. Harreld at the Com
munity Farm. out on the Silver Spring
road some miles beyond the District
line into Maryland. They are all to
meet at Mrs. Thomas p. Cores place
in Massachusetts avenue, and make
the trip out i'm motors.
One of the women who missed out
on the Senate Ladies luncheon to Mrs.
Marshall. last Tuesday was Mrs. Pom
creme, who has really been in Wash
;nston pretty much all summer. but
left Friday of last week to go to
Elyria, Ohio. She was the week end
guest of the former u. $. Ambassador
10 France, and Mrs. William G. Sharpe.
who were giving a big party there for
her Saturday afternoon. She was plan
ming to go on to her own home at Can
ton, this week and seemed bit un-
certain, just when she'd get back to
w ashington-though she was not ex-
pecting to stay away for the remainder
of the summer. or anything like that.
Mr.. Myron T. Herrick of Cleveland.
United States Ambassador to France
and one time Governor of Ohio. also
was in Washington this week. He also
landed on Saturday and came to Wash
ington on Monday, staying few days
with Robert Woods Bliss. Third AS
sistant Secretary Of State. OF course
he had some talks with Secretary
Hughes and called upon the President
at the White House. but he doesn't seem
to have taken part in any social events.
He left for New York on Wednesday.
I've a hunch that he went up to bid
Ambassador Jusserand bon voyage and
perhaps have a little confab with him
there Jusserand's departure was an
other of the things that happened this
week, Unexpectedly at the last. He has
been trying to get away since early in
June. Nine. Jusserand had been practi-
cally living in her trunks" for weeks.
They couldn't get away because there
was no one to- leave as Charge--and
they waited. and kept on waiting.
Finally Count Charles de Chambrun,
who had been taken from Constantinople
and ordered to Washington as Coun-
selor and charge, arrived two weeks
ahead OF his schedule--reached Wash
