Politics and not the frothier side of
social life will serve to bring society
together in the Capital for the rest of
June, just as it did Friday, when the
lovely rose garden of Mrs. James j.
Davis was opened to the League of Re
publican Women in Washington for a
benefit card party. Woman Democrats
are meeting in the same pleasant way
at their club house, and one hears only
politics discussed
The garden party which the President
and Mrs Hoover will hold Wednesday
for the disabled veterans of the World
War in hospitals in and near Washing
ton will prove marked exception, and
the humanitarian side of life only will
be seen. The custom of holding the
garden party is of Democratic origin,
the late President Wilson having the
veterans as his guests. and each Presi-
dent since then has observed the Gus
TOM The veteran guests are hospital
patients, who arrive in automobiles and
ambulances to enjoy meeting the Presi-
dent and his gracious lady and view the
beauty of the White House grounds.
1t has been the custom to have the
cabinet members and their wives assist
At these parties, but there will be broken
ranks this year, as none of them will
return from the Republican National
Convention in time, but others in official
life will be with the hosts to greet the
guests.
Among the women who will add luster
to the social side of the Chicago con-
vention this week are Mrs. James E.
Watson, Mrs Felix Hebert and Mrs.
Daniel o. Hastings, all of the Senate
circle. while, of course, Mrs. Edward
Everett Gam, who will watch every
movement Of the big event with un-
usual interest, and the ladies Of the
cabinet will be more central figures
Mrs. Edward Kelly, wife of Representa-
tive Kelly, is already in her home in
Chicago, and the Secretary of Agricul-
ture and Mrs. Hyde have been joined
there by their daughter, Miss Caroline
Hyde, who went West by way of New
York and stopped to visit Miss Gene
Kincheloe, daughter of Judge and Mrs.
David Kincheloe
Mrs. Arthur H. Vandenberg had hoped
to attend the convention en- route to
Grand Rapids, but instead will remain
in Washington with Senator Vanden-
berg. One of the most interesting
articles printed in these strenuous cam
paign times is that written by Mrs.
Vandenberg for the League of Republi-
can Women Magazine of the District
Of Columbia and entitled Just Being
the Wife of Our President" There are
several charming unpublished pictures
OF Mrs. Hoover in this sketch. The same
number is also carrying a delightful
story of Mrs. Gam, written by Mary
Lee Davis. Mrs. Vandenberg is a for
Mer newspaper woman, and since she
no longer follows the news side of the
profession she devotes much of her time
to writing along philanthropic lines and
for girls magazines.
But to return to the Chicago conven-
ton, which opens Tuesday one of the
most attractive figures there will be Mrs
Alice Roosevelt Longworth, who not
since she was grown has missed a con-
vention. 1t was at the convention that
nominated President Taft that the little
lady stood at the front of a box and
haasd hex iuustrious father cheered for

BRISBANE GIVES
y ADVERTISING
RECIPE

CHICAGO. May q U.S),
Arthur Brisbane urged America
to keep up it's courage against
adverse business conditions when
he addressed the advertising coun-
Gil of the Association Of Com.
merce yesterday.
Importance of Ads
Mr.. brisbane stressed the i'm
portanc of the daily newspaper
rs an advertising medium.
"The advertiser needs steady,
persistent, persuasive publicity.
That is offered by the daily
newspaper.
'Tt is a wholesale vOice-a
reflection of the individual
voices and individual converse
tiOns of the people. 1t is a
mirror of the world. 1t looks
like the people who read it.
The papers, as well as they
know how, express the opinions
Of the people. If you don't like
the newspapers, change the civ.
iliZatiOn which has produced
them"
Tips to Advertisers
To advertisers, Mr.. Brisbane
gave a simple recipe for effective
publicity:
you must have what people
want, you must offer it at the
right price, particularly in these
days, and you must let people
know you have it.
you must make people see
your advertisement. Then YOU
must make them read it, under
stand it, and believe it, and
then you must make them want
what you have to SELL"

with embezzling. Prescott suggested that
he deemed this unnecessary. but offered
no strenuous objection. Chief Judge Urner
stated that the court would render its
decision later in the day.

Rare Operations.


A.rare operation by which a rusty wire
was removed from the stomach of valu-
able pure-bred Guernsey heifer, saving her
life. was performed recently by DR.. C. M.
Grub. of Rockville. The animal has almost
completely recovered.
The calf, belonging to Harry Carter, a
grandson of Harry C. Hurley, who owns a
farm near Rockville was taken sick about
three weeks ago. Dr.. Grubb was called
in and found the hiefer to be suffering from
traumatic indigestion, which is caused by
an internal puncture or wound.
Since it was valuable animal, DR.. L. j.
Poelma, of the University of Maryland,
was called into consultation. The physi-
clans informed the owner that the animal
would surely die unless an operation was
performed. They warned that there was
not more than an even chance that the
operation would be successful.
In the Hurley dairy. using only local
anesthetic, Dr., Grub, assisted by DR..
Poelma. performed the operation. The in
cision was made in the left flank and one
of the four sections Of the bovine stomach
was entered. a .H.a--g ri h..t'
