Company Which Played
Successfully on North
Shore to Appear Here

What a musical season we have
in store for US! The Washington
Opera Company has the most am.
bilious program of its career, with
full week of opera promised for
early December. Mrs. Lawrence
Townsend has gathered together
great artists from many countries
for her series of musical morn
ings. Mrs. Wilson-Greene will bring
many old favorites to us again in
addition to several exciting novel
ties.
And now comes the news that the
American Opera Society of Roches-
ter. N. Y, will give a gala per-
Torrance here on December IL at
the Mayflower, with Carmen"
chosen as the vehicle. The Presi-
den and Mrs. Coolidge are expected
to attend and also the Speaker and
Mrs. Longworth.
The American Opera Society,
which will put on a season in New
York this winter, opening January
3. is the pet project of George East
man, the kodak king" who backs
it as a contribution to the rounded
development of American life. Mrs.
Joseph Letter is one of those most
interested in the project to bring
this fine company to Washington,
having become an enthusiastic
booster when the company played
on the North Shore last summer.
and when Mr.. and Mrs. Letter kept
open house for many of the artists.
Since the performance is to be at
the Mayflower. the audience will
necessarily be limited, and / would
not be surprised If invitations were

AS the political pot boils and

evidence Of what an important part
the 'lame duck" plays in American
politics.

former Governor Redfield Proctor, of
Vermont. and former Senator Rich.
ard Ernst, Of Kentucky.
Then, Roy o. West. who has been
staying at the White House, was
described to me as former
Representative from illinois, al
though he has more recently been
working for the Republican Ma
tional Committee in Chicago.
Charles Evans Hughes. onetime
Secretary Of State and former STAN
dard bearer for the Republican
Party. was in town a few days ago,
but seems to have slipped out be-
fore the beginning of the con.
elaye. However. Charles D. Hilles,
who is said to be able to read
the mind of Mr.. Hughes, is on
hand.- And Mr.. and Mrs. James

Europe in order that Mr.. Reynolds
might be here to sit in on the
conference.
Over The Coffee Cups
Senator Butler. who spent the
first hours Of his visit in Wash

the President and who Is now
staying at the Willard. entertained
guests at dinner there last evening
and Senator Ernst also had an in
formal dinner at the Willard.
Governor Proctor is staying at the
