Miss ~Nannie Chase, Miss Davlett Ficklin and Miss Margaretta Tilmann Lady Mme. garded as the especial province of the first lady of thi , wherein she may show her individuality in such mat- ters. This question is one which inter- ests Washington society more than might be supposed. The tennis court, at the south front of thes Executive Mansion, installed there by the late President Roosevelt, is being put in condition for President-elect Harding. But by an unwritten law no changes will be made in the lovely formal gar- dens stretching out on either side of the south balconies until Mrs. Hard- ing gives her personal directions con- cerning them. The formal garden to the west, which 1s quite unique of its kind in Washington, was made In accordance with Mrs. Roosevelt's plans, who dur- ing the practically two terms of her making her home in the White House had them fllled with every sweet old fashioned flower to be found in the floral category of colonial days. When President Wilson came to Washington as the chief executiv. his first wife, while expressing a miration for this charming space, had a decided preference for a rose garden rather than one given over altogether to old fashioned flowers. And there- upon, without altering efther the lines of garden or the perfectly kept close- clipped hedges, had the flowers re- moved for the rose trees, which still remain intact. The only time when a President has been known to give his personal di- rections concerning the planting of these south-front gardens was when the late President Cleveland gave a delightful evidence of a charming sentiment as In response to his orders the small garden to the east of the south balcony grested Mrs. Cleve- land's_eyes upon their return from their honeymoon, 1aid out in double of that velvety flower. Dolly Madi son’'s tastes evidently took on a more substantial tinge, for {t was she who first pastured a Jersey cow on the front lawn—President Taft following the example—where during the pres- ent administration the Wilsenian sheep have graszed and fatteped. But Doilly Madison had the pic- turesque idea which none of her suc- Cessors as first ladies of the land have had so far, and this was to utilize one of the stone walled-in spaces beneath the front portico as her dairy, where, with her Jersey cow in the back- annd. she made fine play of estab- ishing Petit Trianon d enrolled the belles atiq beaux of the day to join her in the pretty pretense of but- ter making. During the Grant administration the front and back lawns of the White House grounds were given over to the The Playhouse Tea Sl;op 1814 N St. N.W.

Dr. C. W. de'L. Nicholls To Be Reception Guest Dr. Charles W. de Lyon Nicholls of New York city, well known here as the umpire of debutante beauty at the Southern Relief ball, will be the honor guest at a reception to be given at the Colonial Dames’ Club, Satur- day, February 5, by the Washington ‘Chapter, Scions of Colonial Cavaliers. Mr. Nicholls is the palatine general of the Scions and Mr. Daniel Smith Gordon is president of the local chap- ter of the society. The guests will include the execu- tive officers of the Southern Relief Society and Colonial Dames’ Club, members of the U. D.

Tales of Well Krfown Folks in Social and Official Life (Continued from Eighth Page.) obtain one of those splendidly carved refectory tables which are to be found on the market once in a while in Lon- don and the continental art centers. The long table with square ends and great lengths of carving stripped crosgswise to insure their steadiness have almost replaced the ornate af- fairs commonly used and copied from the luxurious days of the “Grande Monarque” and other Bourbon kings. In California they have long enjoyed a vogue and they are peculiarly adapt- ed to alfresco dinings in pergolas and gardens which is a part of the life on the Pacific coast. Happy is the collec- tor who can get two carved benches of corresponding length and adorn- ment, for then he has the dining soom equipment familiar in so many hun- dreds of great paintings. In all paint- ings of the Last Supper, a table of this kind is invariably shown, frequently richly carved as in the Venetian mas- ters, yet plain as those still in use in monasteries in the most famous can- vases, like that of Leonardi. Many of the ancient chateaus of France still boast Francis the First dining halls, which are certainly a relief from those of later French kings, like the Louis. The room is long and somewhat narrow. Against the four sides of the walls run carved benches, cushioned and divided into chair-like sections by arms, and two long ta- bles stretch down the room, with an aisle between, for the servers to move. All such rooms are paneled with an occasional tapestry over the wide open fireplace. Several of the sumptuous new homes in Burlingame, Calif., re- produce this effect and a.cool and re- freshing apartment it makes. ‘Wonders as to White House Gardens. Frequenters of the White House are wondering what changes Mrs. Hard- ing will make in the small private gardens .at the south of the White House, which for the past half dozen or more administrations have been re- Service —i8 a word that has been largely overdone to the extent that nowadays one hardly knows just what it means. At the Arcade Market, Serv- ice means the courteous treat- ment afforded every patron, from their first purchase to their last.
