A ¢ity that can get all worked up over a dispute as to “who outranks whom” at the dinner table was a bit amazed that Mrs. Roosevelt called Mrs. Garner and suggested that she drop by the latter's hotel for ‘a visit. WALKS TO WHITE HOUSE They were even more surprised when she declined the offer of Mrs. Hoover to have a White House car and chaffeur call for her to take her to the mansion and walked the several blocks from her hotel to 1600 Pennsylvania Ayenue. They éven chuckled at reports that she and Sir Ropald Lindsa the British Ambassador, rode from Atlanta to the “little White House” with Sir Renald sifting on the front seat with. the chauffeur “ap- parently frozen almost stiff.” Whether she will continue to act with informality after she really hecomes the First Lady, of course, remains to be seen. drifting up from Warm Springs; ed that there would not be suffi- cient income to pay Krenn his $2,000 a month income. He was then informed that the annuity agreement was not practical and that Mrs. McCormick's other heirs were willing for him to reassume| ‘his position as heir. Heirs Lose Out DByer Hubbard, the former Muriel McCormick; Mrs. Max Os:r, is the wife of the Swiss riding master, and Mrs. McCormick’s son, Fowler McCormick. The Tribune said that its in- formation had come from an auth- ‘oritative source and that the heirs had been advised that they need not expect much from the estate, which at its height was made up largely of Standard Oil and other stocks. At the time of her death last August, however, all of the stocks were gone and most of her funds were tied up in real estate, held by the Edith Rockefeller Trust. Much of the real estate is mortgaged. The other heirs are Mrs. Elisha| the| former Mathilde McCormick, who, erator, has decided there is no nzed for a long tiresome journey, as a preliminary to a duck hunt. Adjoining the downtown office structure in which he has space is) an eight-story garage with a flat !roof and walls arising several feet | above the roof. Recently Peterson looked out of the window of his office and saw ja flock of ducks swimming in a small lake formed on the roof as the result of a recent rain. After enjoying themselves for about twenty minutes the ducks flew off toward the south. Peterson, aware that the human tribe is largely skeptic, called to- gether an audience, and had each member make an affidavit stating that he (Peterson) was a truthful man. ‘ Proposes, ; Hunting {In Washington by Only Bow, Arrow OLYMPIA, Wash., Feb, 27— | State Sepator Nugent has in- troduced a bill prohibiting kill- JUNEAU PAINT STORE THE CHAS.
