The gown, with slippers, hosiery and all ac- companying equipment, was for- {warded to Washington." But, while Mrs. Coolidge was willing that the |change be made, she insisted that |the original gown must be kept in the Smithsonian collection. There was a promise that she Ihad to fulill, Then . she revealed. how in the jearly days of her stay at the White House she needed a gown for a special occasion. The modiste from whom she ordered it kept his staff working after hours that it ruight be ready in time. { Mrs. Coolidge was grateful and with one of those gestures which {mede her so popular in Washing- ton, promised: Promise Fulfilled. “When T send a gown to be dis- played with the gowns of other White House hostesses, it will be the one you made for me.” So now, in a collection that de- ;picts the complete sartorial history of . this ;.
