ners. in addition to the more infor-
NAL at homes" of Mrs. Harding
and the dinners by the Cabinet
officers.
There is great demand for invi-
tations TO these formal receptions.
and Mrs. Harding has been forced
to announce about ten days in sd-
vance OF each one that the invita-
tion lists have been closed. While
there is a special invitation list for
each reception it has always been
customary TO enlarge this list, and
as news or the practice becomes
known the requests become more
numerous

the boy was able to reach his home
last night In time to collapse on the

him writhing in agony.
Was Innocent Victim.
According to witnesses who saw
the stabbing affray the boy was the
innocent victim of young girl
ma sked and costumed In ballet
dress who was pursued by a crowd
OF youths much older than Leonard.
AS the taunts by the young re-
velers continued. the girl who was
being ''razzed" on account OF her
short skirt, suddenly drew from her
bosom an open penknife and with
out a word Of warning or without at
tempting to find the ring leader.

In the commotion that followed
the girl disappeared in the crowd

that the boy had been seriously
wounded. The affray occurred on
ii street between Fifth and Sixth
streets, block from the boys
home. He is the son Of Mr.. and

hood said they believed she was
n stranger in their locality. Her
ballet dress. II was said, was ex.
tremely short. reaching above her
knees. while the bodice was cut
low in front and back.
She was described as being about
five feet tall. with her brunette hair
apparently bobbed. although most

tesque headpiece fashioned in the
shape OF a Ounce cap.
