Wednesday.
Among the more or less onicial
parties OF the last seven days was
the dinner which Miss Cannon gave
Monday, for Secretary and Mrs.
Weeks. Then Tuesday the Secre-
tary of the Navy and Mrs. DENLY
had q reception to which only mem
! bers Of both Houses OF Congress
and their wives, OF course-were
asked. That party was rather an
innovation, but Secretary DENLY
has more than a friendly feeling
for his former comrades in Con-
gress, and they, in turn, cherish
warm regard for their erstwhile
| colleagues in the House OF Repre-
sentatIVes. The Secretary OF State
and Mrs. Hughes were given a din
