Xot since the Taft Administra tion, when everybody danced, from the President and the Speaker of the House to the midshipman from Annapolis and cadet frdni West Point, home for a brief holiday, lias the city been so guy. One diplomat lias spoken of "dinner parties rain pant." The succession of debutante teas, balls, small dances, and cotil lions, undreamed of two months ago, is now endless. Yet, despite an evidence of extravagance in the matter of dress, Ihere is still con serve tiveness in food, which is one of the lessons-the war taught us. Although dinner parties of forty and fifty covers are so usual as to pass almost unnoticed, and each new candidate for social honors has had her time-honored tea as a debut, dinners and teas are marked by a less elaborate display of flow ers, food and favors than before the war. Few Washingtoniana of today are natives of the District of Columbia. Society is constantly recruited from every point of the compass to merge into the gayetles of this Victory Winter. Debutantes -who inherit their claim to polite attention through live and six generations or District families and debutantes who never saw the dome °f the Capitol or portico of the White House until three months ago are dividing honors amicably, not only with each other but with visiting dignitaries of international Pr ance and with the \ who, in the absence of the Chief Executive, may be regarded as the Chief Personage. There are no po litical lines in entertaining The Marshalis," as the Vice-President and his wife arc called by the gicat body of the capital's Vanity hair "The Dadies of the Senate, an organization of Senators wives, con timms its war work activities in a modified degree, with Mi & Phil andev C. Knox, of Penns f"r and Mrs Alice Pomerene, of as the active aids of the Vice-Presi dent s wife, but there is no doubt that the work is secondary in ing! on nowadays. Play is the °rae of the dav.

Feb. 6.—The peace confer ence committee on international la bor legislation has completed its discussion of the British plan for an international labor bureau. The plan will be taken up, article by ar ticle, to-day. , A ' statement by the American Federation of Labor was presented to the committee, but its contents were not divulged.

Louis Klotz, the French minis- of the old regime to nine-Inch halos of- diamonds and pearls. While no effort has been made to place Cabinet Day again on the so cial calendar, the fact that Marshall dm! Mrs. Champ Clark have announced "at homes lor Wednesday afternoons has gone a long way toward re-establishing the custom of official hostesses' receiv ing visitors without formal invita tion. A recent occasion fully rep resentative of Washington on a peace footing was the reception of Mrs. Philander O. Knox and Mrs. Hlrant W. Johnson as joint hostesses at the Knox home in K street. No cards were issued for the reception, but the company could hardly have been more representative of official Washington. Those who came in cluded the Chief Justice of the United States, several Associate Jus tices .practically the entire Sena torial cirMe, diplomats and officers of the Army and Navy. r A dozen or more daughters Oi prominent families, having had no intention of quitting school or col lege if the war continued, suddenly decided to come out this wintejr with all the old-time flutter of Tea, flow ers and a truly grown-up wardrobe, with gowns for every occasion. The lure of the most joyous play season of a generation could not he re sisted.

Speey restoration of railroads to pri vate ownership was favored. HOI.D MAN IN WOMAN'S DEATH.

The company has 19.000 men on i'.s payroll. ter of finance, presided at the meet ing yesterday. A Knotty Problem Although the live great :Ulied and associated powers which are direct ing the peace conference have turn ed over much of tlie work to com missions, the society of nations ques tion, especially with reference to the smaller nations, is becoming a knot ty problem. The smaller nations, it is declared, want full equality in a society of nations and also greater powers than Hie plans already outlined give to them. The great powers, on the other hand, are faced with a sit uation that if epcli state is given one member on a supreme court of nations, they might tind them selves in the minority, although their interests might be much greater and probably would lie. It is not believed that the great powers would consent to an ar rangement of this sort and a situa tion similar to that at the second Hague peace, conference appears to lie in the making. The experts on the society of nations question nre hopeful of finding a way to get the smaller states to agree (o the plan so that It will not fail as Elihu Root's scheme for a supreme court of nations failed of approval at thp second conference at the Hague. Captain Stackpole Will Speak at the Y. M. C. A. Captain, E. J.

Advice to the Lovelorn BY BEATIIICE FIARFAX FEARS TO ESTRANGE PARENTS DBA RMISS FAIRFAX: For two years I have been expect- marry: but our families disap prove. Recently my sweetheart said to me: "I hear of a ease just similar to ours. A couple got married—a pre sume they eloped—and after a few months the husband fell sick and died. For what she had done her parents refused to forgive her." This stroy discouraged her. I still care for her, and J will appreciate your advice. M. A. If you lnid told me why your fami lies disapprove I might have been able to give you definite advice. As it is, I con only say that, if you are ein cerely in love, the wisest course Is to try to win the parents over. WHICH SHAM, SHE CHOOSE? DFAR MISS FAIRFAX: 1 have been going about with two young men. both of whom asked me to marry them. One of these (A) is very homely, hut has lots of money, wl ile (B) Is handsome and hasn't much money, but Is working hlftiself up. A lias u very had reputation and agreeable manner, while the other has a fair reputation and his manner 1b changeable. Would you kindly advise me which cne to choose, as I am undecided? I). E. F. M. Your indecision proves, I should sty. that you are not in love with either of these young men. And, Ir that is the ease, l do not see why you slioul dmarry either of them. Don't allow yourself to he influenced either by mone or good looks, but wait to see. In the first place, whether either one of them is worthy of love, and, second. whether* you can love him.

FITZGERALD REAL ESTATE AGENCY 34 S. 3rd STREET FEBRUARY 6, 1919 FRANK A. SMITH FOR STATE SENATOR [Continued from First Paso.] complishments for the benefit of nil the people of the Commonwealth. Naturally X would be proud to>have a small share in that program." "1 am a plain businessman," con tinued Mr. Smith," and if 1 am elect ed I shall strive to conduct myself in public office precisely as I have dope in my own private business. With respect to purely local legis lation, naturally I am very much in terested in the development of Capi tol Park along the lines already laid down and I hope, if J am honored with a seat in the Senate, to do my share toward pushing this improve ment to an early conclusion. 1 pledge myself to an honest, progressive ad ministration of the senatorship if I am entrusted with the office." *"j Executive Committee Meets The meeting of the fifteen mem bers of the county executive com mittee and the officers df 'he county committee was held in the small office of the county chairman with nobody'else in attendance. George Kurmany, of Hummclstown, was elected and John H. Lehr, of Dykens, as secretary. The nomi nation of Mr. Smith was a matter of only a few minutes and directly following the couhty committee met to ratify and endorse the selection. The big room of the headquar ters was so full that chairs were brought from the outside when Sec retary Al. S. Cooper read the call for the meeting issued by County Chairman "William# Xf. Horner, who as presiding officer asked for a re port from the executive committee. Mr. Karmany reported and present ed the sworn certificate of nomina tion signed by all of the members, after which a committee was ap pointed to escort Mr. Smith to the room. The candidate was given a hearty reception when he appeared. He told the committee that his train ing'was that a businessman find that he made no boast of oratory, but he felt thoroughly at home in a gath ering of Republicans with whom he had been associated for years and especially so in that room as it was there in 1912, as county chairman, he had helped to create the present very effective, harmonious and suc cessful county Republican organiza tion. lie said he deeply appreciated the honor conferred upon liim by the nomination, especially following the senatorsliips of such distinguished men as Judge S. M. M. McCarrell, Senator John K. Fox and Lieuten ant-Governor E. E. Beidlemau. The | mark they set was so high, he said, and the pace of his immediate pre decessor so fast that he felt his own inability to match their careers. Rut he pledged his best' efforts for sin cere, constructive legislation along business lines for the welfare of his constituents. lie said lie realized he had a big - job ahead of him. if elect ed, but that under the leadership of a great governor and with op portunities for service never larger, Ue,hoped to render such an aceount- I ing of his stewardship as would re flect credit upon the district. Mr. Smith's remarks were, receiv ed with applause and when the handclapping had subsided Pro tho notary Charles E. Pass was call ed upon to address the committee on the importance of the coming spe cial election. lie did so in his usual happv stvle, pointing out the neces sity of continuing Dauphin county antong the Republican strongholds of the state and in running up a majority in the senatorial election as would send Mr. Smith' 'o the Capi tol with such a vote as would,show to Governor Sproul and the mem bers of tlie Legislature that he is a strong favorite at home. He paid high tribute to Mr. Smith's personal character and to his fitness foi the senatorsliip. He referred to the distinguished men who had preced ed him and laid special stress upon tlie splendid record of Lieutenant- Governor E. E. Beidlemau. whom he said is to be congratulated up on being associated with such a pro pressive and constructive adminis tration as that of which Governor Sproul is the head. Lieutenant-Governor Speaks Lieutenant-Governor Reidleman was next called upon and he too ex pressed his high opinion of tlie new senatorial candidate, outlining his long business career in Harrisburg, and tlie sacrifices he had made in his early years in the interests of fair play to his friends, he having de clined a highly remunerative posi tion for himself because to liave ac cepted it would have meant financial loss for those who had stood by him when lie needed help. Lieutenant-Governor Reidleman recalled Mr. Smith's success in local politics, reciting the remarkable campaign of 1912 when as county chairman he liad carried the local Republican ticket to victory in the hottest fight on record and at u time when tlie Bull Moose swept the county for Roosevelt. He said he had made a study of state affairs, that he was as well and favorably known abroad as at home and predicted that lie would make his mark in the Senate. Mr. Reidleman pointed out the i need for businessmen in public af fairs at this critical period, when Pennsylvania is called upon to pay a billion and eighty millions of dol lars in federal tajtes and' when the Commonwealth must have at Its call men who can think clearly along business lines. The Lieutenant-Governor predict ed Mr. Smith's election by a large majority and asked the committee men and the voters for the same hearty support for which he thank ed them for the 9,000 majority they 15 gave him last November .He said it would be a pleasure for him to serve in the Senate under the leadership of Governor Sproul, during a period when things are being done on a big scale and along progressive lines in the service of the Commonwealth. Mr. Betdleman spoke at length upou the program and accomplishments of the Sprout administration and said that the progress being made in the State Highway Department is an in dication of the manner in which pub lic affairs have been speeded up along other lines. "It is remarkable that so soort after inauguration and in the middle of February the State Highway De partment should have already started to improve the borough highway, through Camp Hill and that next Monday work will be begun on a similar improvement in Higlispire, Governor Sproul is losing no time, lie has already outlined a porgrani j for the expenditure of |25,000,000 I a year for the next four years on ; roads. His program along other lines is equally vigorous and'constructive," 1 lie said, and added that with Mr. Smith representing Dauphin county in the Senate,* the district will have a man there worthy of participating in the big things that will be ac complished. Following the I.ieutenant-Govern or\s remarks, Mr. Pass Introduced a resolution expressing the approval of the committee of the program and administration of Governor Sproul and pledging the committee to its support.
