White Miss Vera Downing daughter of Mr and Mrs Augustus Downing and Miss Findley daughter of Mr W W Pindley of the Southern Railway On account of her serious illness from which she is now recovering Mitts Kath- arine Leech will not her formal bow on Tuesday She will be introduced later in the month Now that the forecast of the winter season is becoming more definite and my ladys engagement book begin to look Interesting society women are dis- cussing the mooted question of conflict- ing dates and how they oan be avoided Each season there is no end of petty troubles and heart burnings over the dilemma of hostesses and guests who find themselves bidden to two interesting functions at the same time Cases of de- lightful dinner parties arranged weeks ahead broken by the sudden mandate from the White House for the appear- ance there of the chief guest is known to every society leader here No hostess is quite sure of the success of her dinner until her guests are actually In the house Sometimes she even finds that not only are the total number of expected guests on hand but also some unbidden ones for so mad does the social rush become at the height of the season that persons have often been known to be so confused in their dates as to get in the wrong houses Every one knows how the former French Ambassador the popular M Jules Cambon found himself In the predica ment of being bidden to the White House the very night he was to give a dinner at his own Embassy the old Porter house in H street There was nothing to do but ask one of tha gentlemen of his staff to play host ag his proxy whtl he went off to saw were the there launch the make the avenue some bell era ¬ ¬ ¬ ¬ ¬ ¬ ¬ ¬ ¬ dine with the President Now the question is Cannot something be done to avoid these troubles Pltts burg has solved the problem It has a- social bureau where all dates are kept on file and bulletins of the same pub- lished the woman of society re pairs to find out the dates already chosen by other hostesses and avoids them There are no such conflicting arrange ments as occurred at the last two big concerts given here a tow weeks ago when the Philadelphia Orchestra and Paderewskl were scheduled to play the same day The Secretary of State and Mrs Root planned to leave the city Friday but stayed over to attend the White House dinner to President Amador of Panama and Mme Amador but
