Washington, Sept. 23.-Washington
society is rapidly approaching normalcy;
Every day brings back many of social
prominence from all corners OF the
country and globe.
Congress has adjourned and Vice
President and Mrs. Coolidge have de-
cided to spend the autumn IN MaSsa-
chusetts. now that the vice president
is not needed by the senate. Though
many members of the house only re-
turned to town in the last week or so,
the majority left when congress dis
banded on Friday. Most of them have
important political matters to look
after. And those who have not are
helping some political buddy" with his,
or just speeding for the good OF
thier party.
Secretary of State Hughes and his
wife landed in this country today from
Brazil. where Mr.. Hughes won new
laurels as the presidents special en-
voy at the Brazilian Centennial exposl-
ton. With his arrival all of the cab
met members will be in town, whne
all of their wives, 1 think, will be here
around the list.
Mrs. Webb's Dinner Party
Mrs. Henry C. Wallace, wife of the
secretary of agriculture. came back the
middle of the week, after a lengthy stay
at their Des Moines home and a short
visit in Detroit with their son-in-law,
and daughter, Mrs. Angus -ucLay. Mrs;
Edwin DENLY. who is in Detroit, and
Mrs. James Davis. who is at Moose
heart, ILL.,, are both due here in about
a week. as is Miss Ailsa Mellon, who
is at Pride's Crossing, Mass. L do,
not know exactly when Mrs. Albert h.
Fall or Mrs. Herbert Hoover are re
turning and no one else seems to know
yet. Mrs. Harry NJ. Daugherty, wife
of the attorney general, who is an in
valid. will probably remain at their
Columbus, O.. home indefinitely, while
Mrs. Hubert Work has been away all
summer.
The week opened with a big dinner
party Sunday night, given by Mrs.
John Sidney Webb, for the out of tow
guests who assembled here for the
wedding Monday of her daughter, Miss
Sidney Randall Webb, and Walter +.

day. of Miss Elizabeth KoOnes, daugh-
ter of DIR. and Mrs. Charles KoOnes,
and Eric S. Henius-three important
weddings in one week sounds like mid
winter doesn't it.
How Brides Were Dressed
It would be hard to say which bride
looked the prettiest. Miss Webb
was a charming picture in her softly
draped gown of soft ivory satin com
bined with chiffon and guiltless of
trimming except for wee clusters Of
orange blossoms. 1t was made with
the long skirt which is so rapidly gain
ing favor and the graceful hem line
Orange blossoms held her full tulle
veil in place and she carried a shower
Of white orchids and lilies of the val
ley. Miss Emily Cuthbert of Trenton
y. j., who was the only attendant
wore a frock of georgette of a lovely
shade between yellow and peach color
1t was simply made, but fashioned or
modish lines, the skirt dipping much
mt the sides. She wore no hat, al
though it was a noon wedding.
Miss Cheatham was married in 3
combination of ivory and white satin
trimmed with much rose point and
uucneSS laceS. Inc SKlrt was mace
quite long and draped in cascades on
the sides, and the waist was long cut
with at bateau neck line and trimmed
with . wide bertha of duchess lace
The long court train of satin was
edged with the lace and the tulle vel
fell to the esd of the train and was
arranged with a fan-shaped frill at
the back. Orange blossoms were used
to trim the back of the veil. Her bou-
quet was of lilies of the valley and
~stopponetis.
Miss Koones' Gown Sleeveless
Miss Koones' gown was of soft white
satin made on long, straight lines with
petal shaped panels on the sides hang
ing well below the medium hem line
The low waist line was outlined with !:
band of pearl embroidery, which was
ronformed to form a V-shaped panel
on the front of the skirt. The gown
was sleeveless and small clusters of
orange blossoms formed the only gar
niture besides the pearl embroidery
The bride wore a beautiful veil of rose |
point lace, mounted on tulle, and over |
this full veil was a flat close-fittine
cap held in place by clusters of orange
