In all respects.
Washington Guests Limited
For Present Debut Party.
The invitations for the coming
White House dance have gone out,
and great is the disappointment Of
many Of the younger social set here
to learn that Washington names are
comparatively few.
Miss Roosevelt and her two
brothers, Mr. Henry p. Roosevelt and
Mr.. Daniel 8. Roosevelt, who will
accompany their mother, Mrs. John
Cutter, to Washington for the affair,
have sent list of the people they
wish invited to the dance and these,
naturally, are drawn mostly from
their large circle Of friends In Bos-
ton and New York. Staying with
the young Roosevelts at the White
House at this time will be Mr.. and
Mrs. Forbes Morgan, jr., of New
York.
Invitations for the Washington
guests include mostly the debu-
tantes and their friends who have
some of1lcial connection, as we'll as
the young officers stationed here.
The White House undoubtedly will
be a bower Of flowers for the occa-
sion, and small tables will be laid
In the state dining room for the
supper hour. But informality will
mark the occasion, and quite defi-
nitely will be in great contrast to
the last debut party held in the
Presidents Mansion.
