- The knees of society must get tired and trembly with the
continu6us bending to the demands of "correct procedure."
The smaller demands of our own little world seem grave to
many, and to those with plenty of humor and many interests
highly amusing, yet what the "little worlds" experience is
mere child's play to the price paid by those who swim in the
great waters of diplomatic society.
. ly For instance Mrs. Gann started something recently when
she' demanded recognition ajs official hostess to her brother,
Vice President Curtis. She turned the spotlight of public
curiosity on the most anaalingly rigid and intricate social
system in the western, world. The absurd situations which
official Washington must face almostvdaIlyin settling prob
lems of rank, seniority, seating. natiQpementi and other de
tails at its social functions are
brought out graphically by'
continuous example.
Chief Justice Taft can nev
er meet a foreign ambassador
at dinner, because social tra
dition ranks them as equals
and there is no way of decid
ing which ahonld ait at the' host

Matinee Races
Bridge parties and afternoon teas, professions and busi
ness found themselves shelved firmly and joyously Sat
urday afternoon and in their place their devotees placed the
Salem Hunt club's first matinee races. The finish out on the
tracks of the .state fairground was brilliant and jaunty with
sports clothes and outdoor enthusiasm, doing homage to the
joy of horses and the exhilaration of racing. Sunburn backs
and floppy hats, shiny riding boots, swanky trousers and
white shirts, business suits and easy sports togs flashed in
and about the 20 horses which made up the Hunt club's string
shown and rode on the tracks Saturday afternoon.
Enthusiasm rode high. Cheering was as genuine as
could be found on any track, be it giving footing to the best
Kentucky bloods.
Judge 0. P. Coshow, C. A.
Sprague and Lars Bergsvick
judged the result of each race
with the same discretion and
tense attention as though
thousands depended upon the
results, and the waiting crowd
may"gay applause for the win
winers. Those who took part In the
races -were Julia Crech, lima Bo
