Dame Nature has prepared a sump- tuous welcome in the new home of President and Mrs. Harding. and nev- er was the season better advanced in the way of bringing shrubs and trees into bloom. The great clumps of Japanese quince which deck the south garden at intervals are worthy of their popular name, “Moses in the burning bush,” and early pedestrians who circle the Ellipse often see Mrs. Harding, Miss Harlan and Laddie in- specting the gorgeous crimson and green shrubs. Very often Mrs. Hard- ing is provided with some sharp clip- Pers and she bears bunches of the Jovely blooms to adorn her suite. Al the White House drawing room suite is gay with offerings from the propa- gating gardens, some of the enormous amarillus, in pale pink and rose color being placed in mounds of green in the east room and are being enthus- fastically admired.

It| is for the collegiate women what the | Congressional Club is to the denizen! at the Capitol in the social way and it has the distinction of having a rep- resentative of more than four-fifths of 211 the colleges and universities in the country in its role of members. Mrs. Coolidge has joined the club. and Mrs. Herbert Hoover has been a member of the College Women's Club since she came to Washington during her hus- band's term as food administrator, and she takes a keen interest in the large contingent from California. Mrs. Hoover and her husband were class- mates at Leland Stanford, and fur- nish _another eloquent plea for the popularity of co-educational institu- ¢ tions. Mrs. Davis, wife of the Secre- tary of Labor, and Miss Hughes are eligible to_the club and will soon be enrolled. The cozy clubhouse in I street near 18th was obtained some' six years ago and a delightful oppor- tunity is open for college women to enjoy music, literature and critical discussion of politics and its affiliated subjects, several times a week.
