No one could write about a
party for the Royalls, and not
add a paragraph or two about
her striking appearance. Un
questionably she is one of Wash
ington’s most beautiful women.
Her eyes are sparkling always
with friendliness her features
small and perfect and she has a
slender youthful figure. Satur
day evening she was gowned in
sapphire blue crepe, closely em
broidered in sapphire sequins.
Adding a splash of color were a
cluster of large white and rich
purple orchids, tribute to her
charm from a number of
friends.
SKies were nor so azure mis
year for the President’s Cup Re

John R. Steelman; Mrs. Alice
Roosevelt Longworth, Admiral

The blase Tar Heel Colony in
Washington, when it recovered
from the good news that anoth
er North Carolinian State Sena
tor Gordon Gray of the Pied
mont Publishing Company had
been (assistant Secretary of the
Army) appointed to a high gov
ernment position, spread the
welcome rug wide, for Senator
Gray is well-known and well -
liked among the Tar Heels here.
The habit acquired some sever
al years ago, by the head* of
MISS GLORIA BLANTON—Daughter of Mr. and Mrs. W. M.
Blanton whose engagement is announced to Harry Fryer, son of
Mr. and Mrs. J. A. Fryer of this city. The wedding will take place
during the latter part of December.
our Nation, of yo-hooing our tal
ented Tar Heels to assist in run
ning our government is a pleas
ant one for those North Caro
linians who are anchored
to Washington year-in and
year-out.
Chief topic of discussion at the
North Carolina Society din
ner the other evening was that
well-written “report” of North
Carolina in a current magazine
by Jonathan Daniels, who perhaps
knows the many angles of our
State better than any oth
er writer. Said the geneleman
on our right that night “Had
the name of the State
been ommitted, any Tar Heel
would have recognized The Old
North State”. Said a na
tive daughter seated farther
down the line “The only objec
tion one could possible find is
that now that they know the
“glories” - the possibilities -the
“foreigners” will all come flock
ing to North Carolina”. For
years and years to come choice
excerpts from Jonathan Daniel’s
“North Carolina” will be quoted.
For those of us in Washington,
we hope the State will remain
the same - a place where we
can live in contentement when
our “tour” of duty in Washing
tin is done.
