The President and Mrs. Harding Have
Cancelled Their Official Social
Program for the Season.

A FORMAL notice was ISSUED
~ from the White House yes
~ terday by Miss Laura Har-
Ian, secretary to Mrs. Har-
ding, announcing: ''The usual pro-
gram Of social activities at the White
House for the season beginning IN
December will be wholly abandoned.
1t Is with great regret that the Presi-
dent and Mrs. Harding have made this
decision, but Gen. Sawyer. the White
House physician, has warned that
even with the most fortunate con-
valescence, Mrs. Harding will be
unequal to the activities OF the pre-
Vious season."
Since the first announcement of Mrs.
Harding's critical illness there seemed
but slight possibility of her growing
sufficiently rugged to undergo the
strain OF the state functions at the
White House this winter, a series
which. for the receptions especially,
entails hours Of standing.
The President has as guest at the
White House over the week end Gen.
Charles c. Dawes. who arrived this
morning from New York, and Will re-
turn to his home in Chicago Tuesday.
Gen. Dawes was for some time direc-
tor of the budget.

 Circle is ii Years Old.

Isabella Circle, National Daughters of Isabella, joined with the other branches of that organization yester- day in the observance of the silver jubilee of the Daughters of Isabella During the day hundreds of men and women visited the rooms of the D. of l., where an entertain ment was provided and refreshments |served.

The first circle was instituted May 14, 1897 wfh a membership of 1855. Today there are more than 300 circles with a combined membership of So,ooo.

RUSSIA WANTS TO
 JOIN IN LEAGUE
Soviet Delegates Announce At Genoa Conference That Country Will
 Cooperate in Proceedings.

Geneva, May IS. (By Associated Press)--The soviet delegates at Genoa informed the league of nations experts there that Russia desired to cooperate with the league and be- come a full f1edged member within reasonable time provided the con- ference succeeded from the soviet viewpoint. The leagues experts have just reported this to the league coun- cil which is meeting here. The Rus sians added that, If the Genoa confer ence failed Moscow would continue it's policy of opposition to the league on the theory that Russia could not expect anything from an organization composed chiefly of member states with which it had been unable 10 reach an agreement.
 The league rficials here regard these unofficial overtures for peace from the bolsheviki as very signif- cant in view of the bitter opposition of Moscow to the organization in the past. They believe 1t would only be a question of time when Russia would have to be admitted to the league if Genoa produced an al-European agreement with the soviet govern ment.

PUPILS TOLD ABOUT
 VALUE OF SPANISH
Professor Moreno Lacalle Speaks At Local Senior High School

Professor Moreno -Lacalle, director of Spanish at Middlebury college, gave very interesting address to members of the Spanish courses at the local senior high school this morning, his biect being. The Value of Span ish."
 He spoke of the fine opportunities which there are for New Britain high school students to study that lan- guage and of the competent teachers of Spanish at the school. Spanish Is the language for tho Am erican citizen,' he said Americans have neglected too long the great op- portunities which are offered in this line. They have great mission 10 perform also. This is regarding the Spanish people on the other side of the Rio Grande.'
 Spanish is also of a great cultural value, its grammar being second only to that of England and English speak ing countries. Even some of the great English classics can be traced 10 Spanish literature Shakespeare de- rived a great deal of his inspiration from Spanish literature. The three well known plays, The Tempest The Tanning of the Shrew," and Twelfth Night" are examples of that" the speaker added
 Commercial Value
 He told of the commercial value of Spanish and how the Germans built up their great trade before the war Each salesman who started for for eign country knew the language of the country and the customs of the people.
 Continuing, the speaker said:
 There is q great social value of Spanish also We have always as- sumed a rather superior attitude to- ward the people of South America and they have turned to France and other European countries because they would have nothing to do with us. Professor Lecalle said that by a study of Spanish the people can get nearer to those people and help to change the attitude both of the Unit cd States and of South America.
 He urged the students to study Spanish earnestly if they study it nt all and he told them to keep up it's study when they get to college, still pursuing it earnestly. otherwise the time is as good as lost.

Mexico City, May 14.-(By The Associated Press. .)--Thirteen persons were killed and more than 70 injured today when a tram car carrying a holiday crowd was catapulted into a deep canyon near Santa Fe, small village adjacent to the capital after collding with another car at the top of a hill.

 The car filled with pleasure seek CTS on their way to Desireto de Lost Leones, a popular resort near the cap ital, crashed headon into a city bound car. The collision did little damage, but the car sped backward down the incline, the breaks failing to hold. It left the rails at a sharp curve, and was hurled into the gulley.
 There were no Americans in the party but several Germans and other foreigners were on board. The death list will probably be augmented, as many of the injured are in serious condition.
