Emily Post Advises

A disliker of cards sends me the
following letter: 1T seems that
every time we go to see friends of
late, we are no sooner there when
the hostess suggests playing cards.
I dislike cards intensely and think
them a waSter of time. I would
much rather spend the evening
in conversation. Would it be rude
to make my feelings known and
refuse to play, or must I suffer
in silence?"
If you are simply going to a
friends house to see them, I don't
see why you can't say, do you
mind not playing cards this eve

There was one party in town
yesterday where a Representative
ranked a Senator. This was at
the reception that the Congress
Sional Club gave for the Chief
Justice and Mrs. Vinson. It took
place at 4 o'clock at the Club.
In the receiving line next to
the guests of honor were Repre-
sentative and Mrs. Carroll d.
Kearns. They were followed by
Representative and Mrs. Clarence
Cannon, Senator and Mrs. Homer
Ferguson, Senator and Mrs. John
c. Stennis. Representative and
Mrs. Wesley A. D'Ewart, and Rep
resentative and Mrs. Omar Bur-
Lesson.
The reason for this reverse in
protocol was due to the rank of
the board members of the Or
ganization. Mrs. James C. Davis,
wife Of the Representative, is the
president of the club, but they
were out of town campaigning
and so Mrs. KearnS, the vice
president took over.
One Spring Bonnet
Although the ladies on the
board in the receiving line wore
afternoon dresses and no hats or
gloves. Mrs. Vinson was not talked
out Of her spring bonnet. Her
gown was a navy taffeta fashioned
with a full skirt and a beaded top.
Her necklace and earrings were
aquamarineS. Mrs. Kearns wore
black taffeta with fresh spring
flowers tucked in the side drape of
her skirt.
The club entertains for all three
branches of the Government
Executive, Legislative and Judicial.
But the only one that can count
on an annual todo is the Execu-
tive branch, or namely the Presi-
dent and his wife. The other
branches must be satisfied to take
their bow once every two years.
This, of course, is the Judicial
year. and '53 will find the Vice
President and the Speaker Of the
House in the spotlight.
When guests walked into the
Club and started upstairs to the
ballroom where the receiving line
was, they couldn't miss the new
flags. They were the American flag
and the Congressional Club flag
and were hung at the head of the
circular stairway.
Although they were new they
were replacements. It was the first
