EPRES SENTA TIVE SAM
IL RAYBURN, of Texas, was
the honor guest at a very small
dinner party the other night,
given by Representative and
Mrs. Fred Vinson, of Kentucky.
Shortly after dinner, the honor
guest disappeared and stayed
that way for about an hour.
Finally, Representative Vinson
grew alarmed and started
through the rooms on a quiet
search. He went no farther than
the bedroom of his own young
son and there was Sam Ray
burn. He was completely occu-
pied and had been for that last
hour, teaching young Vinson,
who was already in bed, to play
the harmonica!
TLEM CLARKE, who is a very
" charming person and one
who has been all over the face
of the globe and found himself
in many entertaining and inter
esting cities, was completely
overcome by Washington activi-
ties. At least, that is what we
hear. It seems that Mr.. Clarke
had heard that Washington was
the littlest big town and one Of
the most conservative on record.
He did not find it so, for he tele-
graphed a close friend who was
expecting him to dinner, Am in

until April. 1t was more or less a
combination of circumstances
which prompted her to do this.
In the first place, she was in
Florida, where the climate made
one think of summery things,
and the second, she chanced
upon a so pretty gingham model
and needing some excuse to buy
it, Immediately thought Of the
Gingham Ball as plenty excuse
enough.
REPRESENTATIVE EDWARD
N w. CREAL, Of Kentucky,
ties all his speeches together with
a nice humor. Recently he was
the guest speaker at the District
Democratic League and was in
troduced as the Congressman
who would tell us all about the
affairs of the nation and just
what to do about them. Rep
resentative Creal got to his feet
and with a nice smile, informed
his audience that if he could do
that he wouldn't be holding a
seat in Congress.
Speaking Of how loyal the
State Of Kentucky was to demo-
cratic convictions, he told the
story Of Bob IngerSoll, the
famed agnostic who, while he be-
lieved in practically nothing,
vowed that if some day Kentucky
went Republican he might.

hell.
MRS. JACK MARSHALL has
wi changed her hairdress
and instead of wearing it, as
always, in a short wavy bob, she
is brushing 1t severely back
from her face, a bit off her
ears and very smooth to a
point just above the nape OF
her neck, and she seems to be
matching her frocks to this
headdress, for they are dash
ingly simple, with not one single
ornament to break the line
from throat to hem.
