last was of interest not only because
of the popularity of the bride, but be
cause it foreshadowed the opening of
the social season. Throughout the
Summer Washington's brides-elect

The ceremony was performed at his

Mrs. Unsworth will spend a month or

closed with a dinner party at the
Chevy Chase Club in honor of the mem

mittee from New York. It was at this
diraier that a bit of unexpected spice
was lent by a "run-in" between two
of the guests-of-honor, General Persh

the American Federation of Labor.
The General had not been scheduled
to speak, but something Mr. Gompers
said concerning labor's share in win
