There have been several luncheons in

week but the only real event to which
the guests were invited ITO meet the
Vice-President and Mrs. Coolidge was
the Persian Minister'S dinner, on Thurs

distinctive features and certain dishes
unknown to Western tables and strange
to Western palates. 1t was a company
Of about twenty, among whom were the
Secretary of State and Mrs. Hughes apd
the British Ambassador and Lady
Geddes.
That same morning Mrs Coolidge was
cut at Fort Myer to a breakfast which
Col. William c. Rivers. commandant of
the post. and Mrs. Rivers gave at, their
quarters, as part of a belated birthday
celebration of the Third Regiment Cav
alry-a famous old regiment which
happens to be stationed there now. The
celebration was planned for Friday Of
last week-the regiments seventy-sixth
birthday. But 1t was postponed because
of inclement weather. as part of the
ceremony was a review of the regiment
by Gen. Pershing, Chief of Staff. and
Gen. Anson Mills, who had once COM

West Point, and the oldest member Of
the Aztec Club-made up of officers
who fought in the Mexican War. The
club has been in the habit OF having
birthday reception for him for years

custom of calling on him in body.
