(Written for the United Press) la Washington there's much to do You really cannot nap at all And everywhere the women drees At social stunts or war work stress In style that's smart and capital. , Washington, July 21. In Wash ington its just one reception to for eign commissions after another. Naturally these social functions have brought out much in sartorial fripperies. Two fripperies brought out are fans and trains. . The first of these are well in hand but the second are not so easily handled. ... . Nevertheless trains have a large following and Fashions stamp of ap proval. In the crush pf the Reception to the Russian Commission at the Pan-American Union building, most of .the trains present had many other stamps besides Fashions. It was most upsetting the way large wives of Senators and Congressmen, left their trains around carelessly underfoot to be stumbled over. . The perfect way in whicfa the "First Lady of the Land" managed her train of 3ilverv grey chiffon . and taffeta leaves no doubt as to her absolute fitness for her position. Managing a train gracefully and adequately re quires more finesse, savoire faire, and just piam muscular control, man managing a multitude, mts. wnson did it with one hand, too, Between handshakes, while she rythmically swayed a huge natural ostrich feather fan fai the other. I shall never know whether Mar garet Wilson is an adept at train management or not for she kept hers of Nile green charmeuse, slung high and dry out of any possible door- matiah contact over a well rounded arm that fluttered a well spangled fan. Mr. Tom Walsh's vellow taffeta trtvam with niiffv nnnnierd shirt and tight pointed bodice with terra cotta velvet ribbon garniture was trainless, but her terra cotta leatner lan in size and coloring more than made up for any such deficiency. Mrs. Fred Bnttort, in purple se nnina nnH net "had a feather fan of exactly matching purple flush.

More pink roses adorned the lady's cheeks but not apphqued ones. She looked like "Meet Me in Rose Time Rosie" with variations and of course she rose with all the others when the orchestra gave forth ihe Star-Spangled Banner." Another striking leghorn hat on a lunching brunette at the New Willard had the top of its broad droopy brim vwereri with nleated black maline that fell over the edge for two inches. A broad band of corn color picot edged ribbon around the crown with a bow in front completed the trimming. On account of the customary wasn ineton heat white is a favoiel color less scheme.
