Maintain Country Home The Doaks will not give up their country home even though he is in the cabinet. They like “Our Nest,” English version of “Notre Nid,” so named by Mrs. Doak. The white house with its terraces and gardens is set in the midst of encircling hills. Surrounding cliffs are a mass of grey winter woodland. “We will probably take a suite at a hotel where we can entertain our friends this winter,” says:-Mrs. Doal, “but every night we will come back out here. This is home.” And it is indeed a home. One feeis it in the welcoming tail- wag of Pete, the white poodie, picked up on the streets by Mrs. Doak; in the smile of the Negro who serves tea, Richmond and Fannie, two other servants who have been with the tamily for years, have a little home of their own higher on the hili, A dog house is being built for the three large dogs, but Pete, the waif from the streets, settles down with satisfac- tion om: his silken’ cushion in the home of-a cabinet officer.
