The GROWING affront TO a hostess
was experienced recently when several
social intruders paused at her desk
which was open and carefully inspect
ed her engagement calendar-possibly
with the idea of locating fresh fields
for feasting.
Another senatorial hostess tells an
amusing story of lady-no, person.
whose ancestors hailed from New
Hampshire who, when she learned
that her senator's wife expected to en-
terrain the governor from that state
with his staff. called up to say that
she very much desired to be there
but that four o'clock was not con-
venient-would the hostess please
change the time to three-thirty.
When the Daughters of the Con-
federacy held their annual meeting in
Washington, social leader invited
the Virginia delegation to join her at
tea. The newspaper women heard of
the event and mentioned it in the pa
pers with the result that instead of
the sixty guests for whom she had
prepared. she was confronted by over
two hundred. This was not an Off
cial but private entertainment for
which invitations had been issued.
During the armistice conference the
British Ambassador and Lady Geddes
issued a thousand invitations for an
evening reception in honor of the
foreign delegates.
Two thousand came and the en-

never repeated the experiment.
