EMPROMPTU' HORSE SHOW
AND DINNER PARTY.
That was the evening. too, that
the Washington Riding and Hunt
Club staged an impromptu horse
show by the American Remount As
sociation, which was attended by
all of the horse lovers, who grow
more numerous in Washington each
year. A number OF early dinner
parties were arranged to precede
the exhibition. The afternoon of
Friday resident society folk, headed
oy Former President and Mrs. will
son, attended the concert given for
The benefit of the Disabled Veterans
Society.
1 cobldn't help but think. as sa,
In that house hardly half filled, how
quickly people forget The concert
was for disabled veterans. men in
valided in their country's service
and yet only a handful of people
would take the trouble to go even
to the concert to help these same
men / think it was the duty of
every one to go and particularly the
duty of those in official life I didn't
see one there.
However. former President
Wilson went and, with his wife
and brother-in-Iaw, occupied a
box. He was greeted by pro-
longed and most enthusias site
applause. which he answered with a
friendly wave of the hand 1 thought
he looked very well: his eyes were
bright and his color fine. Mrs. Will
son looked very well and very hand
some. / think that is the first time
Mr.. Wilson has occupied a box since
his illness. He frequently attends
the theater, but usually slips in
the back of the orchestra seats. II
seemed like old times to see him in
a box like that and looking sc
much like his old self once more.
1t was a busy week, and next

a close second. Wednesday. as has
