is never really dull.
Society here isn't quite so strenuou3
as it was. and yet nobody seems to
have any time ana everyone is on the
go every minute. Just now Washing
ton is enjoying an informal mixture of
politics, sporting life and thing3 social
don't you know. And most events as
usual of late seem to revolve around
the President and his wife, who have
the social instinct unusually developed,
Washington society can go merrily on
its busy way without the White House
was ever there a fall so gay as last
season when there was no entertaining
or' social activity of any sort at the
executive mansion because of Mr. Wil
son's health but it certainly does help
a 'whole lot when the President and his
wife are so sociable as the ' Hardings
are. No other Presidential counje ever
dispensed half so much hospitality in

such a short srac3 of timv nor have
bee nearly so much m the public eve or
eye of the camera. There just doesn't
seem to be a day when they do not pose
for their picture for one reason or an
other. ;
But they are not only the center of
interest, they are the center of every
thing worth while almost that goes
on in the capital now. Before they
went off last week on their week end
cruise on the Potomac River on the
Presidential yacht the Mayflower, they
slipped down to the Potomac polo field
to witness the opening game of the
international army polo matches played
by & crack Cuban team and an engi
neer officers team from Camp Humph
reys. Va. The capital showed its best
sporting blood in following the practice
and in turning out en masse for the
championship games. The Hardings ac
tually delayed their cruise to see the
game. They were presented to th
team as was also General Pershing,
'VhO tOSaed in thp hnll nrferV, A
the game.
The Cuban minister and Mme. De
Caspedes . were there: also many diplo
mats and army officers, and .resident
society, including former President
and Mrs. Wilson.
The Hardings," according to all re
ports, had a grand time on their cruise
and are planning to spend many weeks
and Just that way. There was noth
ing official about the trip; they just
went for the pleasure of it; did not stop
any place nor were any speeches made
and they took with them for company
just people they were fond of. though
they were all more or less official.
The week has been very much like
any other week with, the Hardings.
They received people the greater part
of the day and had guests Informally
for luncheon almost every day and oc
casionally a dinner guest or two. but at
wasy informally. Such guests are usu
ally people Who happen to be around
about meal time and are urged to stay
President and Mrs. Hardingv stood in
all thf nat nf Wno.... j
.. wmouaj aim received
about two thousand delegates to the
convention of the American Institute of
Homeopathy and the Women's National
Homeopathic League convention, both
of which were in session here.
Another interesting caller received by
the Hardings was Shu Shung Francis
Loo, a young Chineat student who is
I ,WJDV 91 tne junior class of Central
I igh school and who presented Mrs
1 1.S Y,ith a Pstel portrait of PreSI
Ident Harding. The Hardings are both
. nice about thinge like that. Now for
i?atncsJ?st Mnday they received Lit
tie Miss Mataiee Talbutt Lake, who pr
sented them with an autographed copy
Mf.e nr,eTte; Strong" as- the
Hills. Miss Lake is a fifteen-year-old
student attending the Western Hieh
school. , s"
too116 Ha?"dm8:s are such sood sports,
! It they are at a party, they onter into
every phase of it with such genuine en
joyment. For instance, if there is any
dancing, they usually dance. They
j both seem to be fond of the waltz,
.which is growing more popular every
day. Dancing,, in fact, .drifting back
to normaley with the new administra
tion. At some parties lately every
other number has been a waltz. It has
been particularly noticeable at partie
given by Latin-American diplomats;
they insist upon many waltzes.
