 Last state Reception
 Wednesday President and Mrs. Harding entertained at the last ana largest of their state receptions, the army and navy, postponed because Of the Roma disaster.

Logan. widow of the famous general, and her daughter, Mrs. Lo- gan Tucker and Mrs. Andrews Cald- well, of Illinois, fin honor of the Ilii- nois delegates to the continental congress.
