2 THE SUNDAY OREGOXIAX, .'PORTLAND," JtTLT 5, I90S. -V H issa 3 t J' JU$$k b-spff' i verse" . ' Vv HA? JSHrZjeMEDJMJf THE flrst few days of the week just past were not conducive to formal entertaining, as the thermometer was extremely energetic. However, added impetus was given later by the returning college Btudents, who were bubbling over with strenuosity and enthusiasm. , A Portlander, John Barrett, Chief of the Bureau of American Republics, has the distinction of giving the ilrst dinner In honor of Secretary and Mrs. William H. Taft since Mr. Taft's nomination. It was, however, of an informal nature, and took place at the Chevy Chase Club, at Washington. D. C. Additional guests were General and Mrs. Bell, General and Mrs. Corbln. General Edwards, Charles P. Taft. Frederick W. Carter and Master Charlie Taft. Following the dinner, as well as before it. a reception was held, and' friends were given an opportunity to extend their congratulations. A flutter of excitement was caused last week when announcement was made of the engagement of Miss Susie Stott, the youngest daughter of Mrs. Raleigh Stott, to Mr. John Emerson Cronan. Miss Stott Is an attractive brunette with brilliant coloring. She has pleas ing manner and is immensely popular. Mr. Cronan is an Easterner but has lived in Portland the past few years. The glad news was at once made the signal for sending flowers and con gratulatory messages. Miss Stott is a sister of Plowden Stott, who was for merly captain of the Stanford foot ball team, and a half sisteer of Mrs. Charles E. Chenery and Mrs. James Laidlaw, wife of Mr. James Laidlaw. who is the English Consul stationed here. Mr. and Mrs. W. E.

While In Florence they met Miss Lisa Wood and Mr. and Mrs. Drake, of Bend, Oregon. After leaving Paris they will tour Hol land and Belgium. Miss Barbara and Jean Mackenzie, daughters of Dr. K. A. J.

Honeyman, Mrs. Peter Kerr, Mrs. Wal ter Burrell, Mrs. Fred Page. Mrs. S. B. Llnthlcum, Mrs. Gordon Voorhles, Mrs. K. C. Mears and Miss Cross of Boston. A charming affair of Thursday was the lawn party given by Mrs. Louise Carey for her slster.Mlss Alice Carey, who has Just returned from school at Dana Hall. The Carey residence on the Riverside Drive, overlooking the river, is ideally situated for entertain ing with its expanse of well kept lawns, splendid trees and rambling walks, and on Thursday presented a pleasing kaleidoscopic effect of color with the gaily colored lingerie frocks of the girls, with their accompanying picturesque hats and varl-colored par asols. Under the trees a tea table had been arranged with a great bowl of blue Canterbury bells aa a centerpiece. Serving here were Mrs. David T. Honeyman. Mrs. David C. Lewis, Mrs. Frank Hart and Mrs. Zera Snow as sisted by Miss Sally Hart, Miss Dorothy Huber, Miss Evelyn Carey and Miss -5 a8srs5w I -if' C; ' -MiSVS' JLO UISE y CAKE V, JfOTZZST 2fJ?J2iVjlT: Helen Goode.

Mrs., Gay Lombard, whose enter tainments are Invariably perfect in every detail, was hostess at a bridge party on Tuesday afternoon, which she gave at the Rock Island Club. The guests were conveyed to and from the club in the commodious Lombard launck and met upon their return with three large motor cars to take them to their various homes. Bridge, followed by tea, was served in a Summer-house adjacent to the club, which Is delight fully surrounded by the river and shaded by huge fir trees. Prizes were attractive silver belt buckles. "Among the guests were Mrs. Lawrence Sutton Ainsworth (Miss -Katherlne Sltton) whose wedding was one of the pleasant surprises of last week; also the two engaged girls.

He recently held the chair of litera ture at Chicago University, but is now holding a similar position with the University of Minnesota. Dr. Burton Is well known as the author of "Forces and Fiction." and other essays on lit erary subjects. While here the visitors dined with Dr. and Mrs. Henry E. Jones and were also house gnests of Mr. and Mrs. Joseph N. Teal. A week of gayety is In order for the various college girls and men, owing to the fact that the Pi Delta Koppa is to hold a conclave, beginning tomorrow.

On Wednesday evening a stag ban quet will be held, and on Thursday the fraternity will be entertained with a dancing party at Estacada, with the Dlx Sorority as hostesses.

Gauld, who has but re cently returned from. Smith College. There were about 70 guests. The only attempt at decoration were great brass bowls of Sweet Williams placed at in tervals in the ballroom.

Mr. and Mrs. Paul Vial and Mrs. James Becket have left for a several weeks' tour of Southern Oregon. The trip will be novel, as they are taking It by slow stages in a canvas-covered wagon and going from place to place as fancy dictates. It is ostensibly a fish ing and hunting expedition, and they have taken a Chinese servant as cook in preference to boarding at the farm houses. Mr. and Mrs. Lloyd Wlckersham are receiving congratulations over the birth of a daughter. Mr. anJ Mrs. Brandt Wickersham have as their guest Mrs. W. R. Lewis, of New York, a sister of Mrs. Wickersham. Mr Lewis will join his wife shortly and after a trip to San Francisco they are planning again to visit in Portland en route to- Europe.

Miss Flora Fleischner, soprano, and Miss Rea tha Fowler, meuo-contralto, failed to ap-' pear in last Sunday's Issue. Miss Fleisch ner has a charming voice of wide range, with delightful tone coloring and dra matio quality. She sings with intelli gence and temperament, and for so young a girl is remarkably well poised. Her selections were both interesting and difficult, comprising English, French, German and Italian compositions. Miss Fowler's voice is powerful, characterized by purity, sweetness and considerable pathos. Both singers show correct breathing and their enunciation is also worthy of comment. Miss Fowler and Miss Fleischner were each deluged with quantities of flowers. ,' Mrs. Lauritz W.
