COUNCIL BLUFFS Washington Bureau of Omaha Be HORSE SHOWS are the last acts of the summer play at the sum mer resorts. In spite of the war season and the great cry that resort hotels were suffering from lack of patronage, they were for the most part filled with people of leisure. Labor day will as usual see a turn ing of the tide of travel towards home. Almost every house, apart ment or rented room of any descrip tion in Washington has been either engaged, or is already occupied for the season, and the late-comers will have a sorry time in finding comfort. Washington saw a short season of real gayety last week in the visit of the special mission from Uruguay, headed by the Minister of Foreign Af fairs Dr. Baltasar de Brum. He had party of five interesting men, includ ing a new military attache of the le gation here, Lieutenant Bcrisso. Sec retary Lansing took Dr. Brum to the White House, where he had tea with the president and Mrs. Wilson, and Secretary and Mrs. Lansing enter tained him at dinner. Three of the ambassadors returned to Washington for the purpose of meeting Dr. de Brum. They were the Brazilian am bassador, Mr. da Gama; the Argentine ambassador, Dr. Naon, and the Mexi can ambassador, Senor Bonillas. - The garden party in the Aztec Gar den of the Pan-American building was a veritable picture party on Monday afternoon, with John Barrett, as host. The heat was intense, making the whole affair all the more tropical in "atmosphere. " The parrots in the aviary, through which all the guests passed into the garden, shrieked their loudest and shrillest, and the monkeys put on their funniest faces and antics and this pretty patio with the blue sky for its canopy was a grateful rest ing place between the hot walks at the back and the front of the building. Mrs. Lansing acted as hostess for the bachelor, Mr. Barrett. The tables with iced drinks and cool food were laid on the facade overlooking the pool of the "Sad Indian," and the sunken gardens. The uniforms of thevallied countries mingled with the pretty clothes of the women and made a comfortable and picturesque sight. The cards of invitation called for "informal dress," and all the men in particular, observed it to the letter. Even Major General Barnett, com mandant of the marine rine corps, punctil- of-propcr raiment, ... ' ious in the matter wore his khakis which had plainly been washed and ironed, in preference to his immaculate white with the gold lace and other adornments of his rank and attainments. Dr. de Brum Entertains. An innovation in the matter of summer festivities was the brilliant dinner party with 85 guests, given on Wednesday evening by Dr. de Brum of Uruguay, in honor of Secretary Lansing, and as a return for the many courtesies shown him. He was the official guest at the State department. He was offered the use of the Pan- American building for his function and the dinner was served in the Great Hall of the Americas. The President and Mrs. Wilson have had a quiet week enjoying the theater several times with small fam ily parties, and having a short visit from Mrs. McAdoo, wife of the sec retary of the treasury, who came up on Monday trom White sulphur Springs. Mrs. William Jennings Bryan spent a few days in YVashington this week with her son-in-law and daughter, Mr. and Mrs. Richard L. Hargreaves, of Lincoln, Neb., in their home, 1723 Connecticut avenue. She left Wednes day for her summer home at Ashe ville, N. C, to rest from v a rather strenuous month or six weeks travel ing through Pennsylvania and New York state. She was making speeches for the war council of the Y. W. C. A. Mr. Hargreaves is in the naval re serves and is not at all certain of his orders so they may or may not re main in Washington this winter. 1 Miss Ruth Hitchcock, daughter of the senator from Omaha, accompan ied by Miss Joan Ohl, has gone to Swampscot, Mass., to make a visit of a fortnight with Mrs. Hitchcock, who has spent her summer at Little's Point. Miss Ohl passed the last few seasons in Washington with her mother. They have lived nearly all of Miss Ohl's life in Paris and Lon don. Nebraska Girls Tea. A pretty tea was given last Satur day afternoon by some of the young girl war workers from Nebraska, in honor of Miss Lucile Fleming, of Ce dar Bluffs, Neb., who left early this week to spend her vacation at home. Mrs. Norris, wife of the senator from Nebraska; Mrs. C. Frank Reavis, wife of the representative from Falls City, Neb., and Mrs. Harvey Nelson, daughter of Senator and Mrs. Norris, chaperoned the party. They chose the lovely surroundings of Mt. Alto Inn for the party, which is in the winter, the National School of Domestic Arts and Science. The girl hostesses were Miss Eugenia Weiss, Miss Nellie Barry, Miss Pearl Reid, Miss Viola Wetherill and Miss Hazel Norris, daughter of the senator. Tea was served in the Greek Temple and it was one of the prettiest parties the girls have had.

Yes, there is certainly no lack of beautiful things displayed in the shops these days. In- fhoatand Sf lESnSSj little accessories so dear to every woman's heart, are especially enticing as this new season opens. If you're planning a shopping ex- pedition, let me warn you to equip yourself with a strong armor of reso- lution, else you'll surely come home with an empty pocketbook-for never m all the modern history of feminine apparel have clothes been so irresisti- bly charming. Mothers who are considering the claims of the daughter going away to boarding school, or college, will be pleased with what the shops have to offer in smart youthful garments. Some of the buyers told me that they realized what a serious indiscretion it was not to have the "just right" things to please "Little Miss Particular," so they made a special effort in her be half when they went east to buy this year.

IN THE Whirligig of Clothes we are always seeking something with the stamp of "different ness" about it.

Every garment made by this eastern modiste spells "personality" with a . capital P. How she manages it no v one knows but with an unusual line ' here; an innovation in trimming there; a little quirk in the adjust ment of drapery and lol she lias a frock that shows unmistakable char acter. F. W. Thome's Style Shop, " 1812 Farnam, has just received sev eral navy, serge "Flanders" Dresses that are distinctively individual. One '. which I admire very much has large satin knitting bag pockets, embroid ered in warm Indian shades of red and blue yarn. It is a very beautiful dress, but no more so than a tailored .
