Carrots Guests

The day marks the silver
wedding anniversary of Mr..
and Mrs. Bacon and the
pearl, or thirtieth, of the
Blisses, and it is a safe guess
that the hostesses at least,
and many of the feminine
guests will attire themselves
in gowns of silver, mother of
pearl or soft white.
The main celebration will be
the dance at Dumbarton Oaks,
but numerous dinner parties will
precede it, the main one to be
given by Representative and
Mrs. Bacon at their residence
on F. Street. A large number
of out-of-town guests are ex-
pected to come to Washington
for the week end and among the
visitors will be Mr.. and Mrs.
William H. Vanderbilt, who will
be the house guests Of Mr.. and
Mrs. George Angus Garrett.
DINNER PARTIES
Mr.. and Mrs. Garrett, who
returned yesterday afternoon
from a brief sojourn in New
York, are among those who will
entertain at dinner, and others
who are plannin.: similar parties
are the former Ambassador to
Spain and Mrs. Irwin Laughlin,
Mr.. and Mrs. Dwight Davis and
Mr.. and Mrs. F. Lammot Belin.
Mr.. and Mrs. James Clement
Dunn will be hosts at a large
luncheon on the day following
the dance at their home on OBJ
servatory Circle and their guests
will include those who have
come from other cities to attend
the party.
No more ideal time of the year
could be selected for entertain
ing at this magnificent estate
for even though the dance will
be indoors, the gardens will be
at the height Of their spring
beauty, and many will wander
outside for a breath of air be-
meath what will then be a wan
ing moon.

CAPTAIN JOHN REYBOLD,
~ who is leaving for a tour Of
duty at Fort Leavenworth land
he will certainly be missed from
Fort Myer) has a nice sense Of
humor and at the moment he
can use it. It seems that Cap.
tain Reynolds definite time to
leave Fort Myer has not been
set. Meanwhile the Captains
mother, Mrs. Marion Reybold,
known to everyone as ma"
hasn't for the first time in her
life, the vagueSt idea of what
to do about moving. It seems
that Ma" has quantities Of
furniture. If they have a house
in Fort Leavenworth, she can
use all this furniture. If they
have to take an apartment, she
will have to store it here. If
she stores it, before leaving and
gets to Leavenworth and has a
house, she will have to send
back to Washington for it.
Meanwhile, the Reybold quart.
ers at Fort Myer, are to be done
over for new occupants and if
they haven't left in a stated
time, the doing over will have
to be done while the Reynolds
are still there. So ''Ma" asks
many questions of the Captain,
none of which he can answer
and but for the above mentioned
humor and Ma" has quite
some, herself. all would be, even
more confusing.

HOMDR. AND MRS. A. P. H.
" TAWRESY have two Of the
prettiest daughters in the

daughter, and we believe her
name is Mary, is carving q
career for herself in the busl'
ness world.
A mn PAGE, pretty daughter Of
"A Mrs. Hardy Page, widow OF
Comdr. Hardy Page, is one
femme who needs never worry
about an escort. In this town
where men are at a premium
and are very aware Of it, Ann
arrives at parties, not with one
lone and hard-to-get cavalier.
but with two, or more, very
attentive men hanging on her
every word.
MRS. DALLAS VAIN.
IVA WRIGHT, wife of Captain
Wainwright, seems to be going
in for those popular plaids this
spring. It might be, because
Mrs. Wainwright has associated
herself with a smart dress shop
here or maybe she is giving extra
attention to her costumes, but
she is a nice eyeful these last
few weeks. Recently, at lunch
con, she arrived in a gray and
coral plaid wooden suit, with the
very short hem line, the short
severely tailored coat and a pair
of silver foxes to add the last,
arresting touch.
HOWARD NEELY, and he Is
IL the small son Of a COM
mander in the Navy whose first
name is completely out Of our
mind, was over at the Senate
the other day in the gallery. He
sat there listening attentively
for quite long time. Finally.
he left and someone who knew
him and saw him leave the gal.
lery, asked him if he had en-
joyed it. Young Nicely nodded.
The friend then asked if he had
understood the remarks Of the
Senators. Young Nicely gave one
deliberate look, "No," he ad-
mitted, "but does anyone elSe?"

Lima, Peru, makes it a bit out
of the ordinary. AS you doubt
less know, Mrs. Loftin is the
wife of Commander Loftin,
naval attache at the American
embassy in Lima, Peru. At the
moment Lima is going into its
winter season, so Mrs. Loftin,
who in reality wanted to come
back to Washington for a visit,
decided that it was the town to
get her winter wardrobe, so
that is exactly what she did.
And the Washington shops get
an orchid, for though their win
ter stock was more or less de.
pleted and spring things, def
nitely in, they managed to
scurry around and outfit Mrs.
Loftin with the smartest of COS
TUNES.
MRS. 'HAM" YOUNG, the
AVA former Ellen Nolan, daugh-
ter of Gen. and Mrs. Dennis
Nolan, is now living in New
York with a cunning apartment
down in the Village. 1t is very
nice for Ellen that General and
Mrs. Nolan, since the generals
retirement, are also living in
New York. We hear from
friends who have just seen
Ellen that she is as lovely as
ever, which is quite lovely, for
when Ellen was going to the
Visitation Convent here, she
was judged the most beautiful
girl in the entire school.
MRS. JOHN CREIGHTON,
WI wife of Commander Creigh-
ton, and she is extremely
smart and most distinguished
looking with a shining swirl of
black hair, is pleased over the
attractive house which she has
just taken in Georgetown. One
of the main reasons for taking
this house is an herb garden.
The herb garden is not in, yet.
but Mrs. Creighton Is intensely
interested in putting one in and
when she saw the garden of this
house, even though it is not
much bigger than a pocket
handkerchief, she promptly
signed a lease.
MRS. GYLES MERRILL.
WI wife of Major Merrill, sta
toned at Fort Myer, worked
hard and long with her duties
as makeup woman" in the
pageant, Hoof-Prints of 1888.
Immediately after the pageant
was over, Mrs. Merrill, demon
Strated perfectly, that old say
ing that when a woman is
either tired or depressed, the
best thing to revive her, is a
trip to the beauty parlor." For
the last night Of the pageant she
announced in no uncertain
terms, that she intended getting
a permanent, a facial and a
manicure!
NAPT. AND MRS. JOHN L.
" HINES, Jr., were unexpected
hosts at one Of the incest smaller
parties of last week. It was after
the final performance of Hoof-
Prints of 1888 and different peo-
pie visiting about, just got to
the Hines and promptly-stayed
there. The house finally be-
came so crowded that the only
seating space was on the floor.
Mrs. Hines, who is a lovely bru-
nette, was wearing a printed
frock with tiny purple bows on
the short puffed sleeves. Capt.
and Mrs. ]. H. Trapnell were
there and Mrs. Trapnell, who
has copper red hair and an in
triguing charm, wore a dress of
red and white polka dots, made
with the very high waist, a
square neck and huge sash tied
with bow. Capt. and Mrs. John
FTeade and Mrs. Meade (Do-do)
who was still wearing her COS
tune of covered wagon days,
was as pretty as a picture, Lieut..
and Mrs. Charles B. Mcclellan,
IL, Lieut.. Jack Seamen and
Lieut.. Clarke Lynn and several
more came in a bit late.
