guests passed at once into the

waiting down stairs until the groups
Of special guests had greeted the

attend the other State receptions
In a body, as they do the diplomatic
receptions, they are invited to all
four, and many Of them were pres

army and navy officers were also
included, with many men and wom-
en- whose forebears had been in the
service, since the military establish
ment has quite outgrown the army
and navy reception and the over
flow is being divided between the
other three Of the series Of State
functions.
