Therell be no ugly bobbe. For the Gentleman
Usher of the Black Rod-theres title for you-is in
full charge and no one dares say him nay Not even
one little tiny nay.
Therell be state dinner but it won't be anything
like the crude affairs served at Hutchinson Kan,
Portland, Ore. Fact he'll probably imagine he's right
back in Washington in his national palace where
things done right.
The Gentleman Usher of the Black Rod is issuing
invitations 10 the big dinner. Who's going? It's a
secret, but this much is known: No should
think of attending the dinner except in brand new
dress. IL will be regarded very, very bad form
to wear dress that has even been just
So the dressmakers busy and the boomakers too.

Nobody "in Trade"
Will Get Invitation

Not all of the presidents party will be invited.
Oh, my no. Just the president, his cabinet ministers,
military and civil aides the Lieut.. Gov of British Co
lumbia, members of the privy council, ministers and
members of the dominion parliament for British Co
lumbia, Premier Oliver of British Columbia his cabi-
net one clergyman from each denomination, and men,
bers of the court and few army and navy officers
will be invited on this side.
This much is known. The mayor of Vancouver the
Gentleman Usher Of the Black Rod, and a scattering
few more dgnitaries will also be invited but NO
vulgar persons in trade will get invitation. That
goes without saying.
What shock it would be to the president to shove
his feet under the table with ordinary tradesman
Or a member Of chamber Of commerce.!

of the chief forester of the Rhine
land and his family. Several minor
officials with their families were
