PREMIER WILL
Bril- NG HIS
DAUGHTER
Miss Ishbel Macdonald
Will Come Here
In October

The fall season in Wash
ington will have a rather
brilliant opening, with the
proposed visit Of the British
prime minister, Ramsay Mac
Donald, in October. And
the visit is taking on an al
together different aspect
socially, since it has been
made known that his daugh-
ter, Miss Ishbel Macdonald,
who is her fathers official
hostess, will accompany him.
It is thought most likely
that they will be the guests
of the British Ambassador
and Lady Isabella Howard
during their stay in the
Capital-although this is a
matter OF speculation at tne
present time.
Meaning
Inclusion of Miss Macdonald
in the small party which will
accompany the prime minister
is said to have been decided
upon for the purpose of empha-
skiing the informal nature OF
the premier's visit. Be that as
1t rnay--it also means that the
round Of official parties which
will be given for them will have
n large feminine representation,
which would not necessarily be
the case If the premier made
the visit alone.
Will Meet
The wives and daughters OF
many Of the higher officials and
diplomats will have the oppor-
tunity to meet and to chat with
the prime minister and his daugh-
ter, which they would not have
otherwise. For IL he came alone
most of the entertaining in his
honor would be of the "tag"
variety-as has been the case
during the visits Of other states
men who have come here minus
any feminine members in the
party.
All Men!

President of the Irish Free State,
was herewith the exception Of
