G‘uelts, Arc Suggested f; In the four memorable garden fetes given by tho President and Mrs. Hnrd-, ing there were among the 6,000 and. more gucsts come of universal ce- lebrity, and this recalls that the White House has never followed the custom | of European and eastern capitals in having a visitors’ book. In twenty; ‘| vears the autographs of guests at! these al fresco amenities would be! commercially most valuable, and in| the 'course of a half century absolute- ly priceless. For instance, during the war, when Queen Mary and other members of the British court were driven to their last rcsource to raiss funds for hospitals and homes, an cn- terprising _antiquarian offered the: king $25.000 apiece for the visitors' books at Windeor Palace, which date | back to the reign of George 1V. The king, however, had no authority to dispose of them, cven to raise several millions, which he needed sorely. But the preniler,. Lloyd George, ailowed him to permif the dealer to trace the most famous signaturcs und for this| | privilege alone Queen Mary receivel funde enough to carry on nursing homes in various parts of England land northern France. Now a time {might come when the mistress of the White Housw would have a veritable old mine at her command, for chaci- table or patriotic purposss. just for introducing a visitors' volume for private calls as woll as for large re- ceptions like those of the past four weeks. From President Harding to the last! of his official advis:rs, Mr. Davis of the Department of Labor, all may be {counted as good sportsmen in some 1 special line. Golf, being a dignified game. appeals to every one of them. though the President. the Secretary of War and the Secretary of Agriculture are the most fervent devotees. The | Secretary of the Navy likes his game and he is frequently seen on thei course at the various country clubs.| He joined the Chevy Chase when he was serving in Congress and remains faithful to it. The Secretary of State was frequentiy seen on the golf course when he was in the Supreme Court, | but since his return to Washington | he has 1arely enjoved the opportunity of playing a game. He is. however, at Greystone, the country scat recent- Iy leased, within easy dstance of sev- eral good greens. The Postmaster General, who is young and boyish in| looks and disrosition. likes a game of hand ball and also handles a tennis! racket skillfully. He confesses, how- | ever. that keeping up with the needs of the Post Office Departmient’ has fur- etics he needs. Thei He prefers riding and takes an early morning canter as often as he can find the time. The Secretary of the Treasury belongs to scores of ath- | cross-country letic associations and is one of the| directors of the foremcst country! clubs about Pittsburgh. He has his! own particular green for golf and he| has not yet settled to a preference in ! Washinzten. though both he and h i Aaughter. Miss Ailsa. often appear at the Columbia Club, both for tennis and | olf. ne of the cabinet officials nor wives show a deeided D horses. either for riding or driving, the motor car has entirely displaced the old-fashioned landau and surrey fur- ni hed by the government. Mr. Wallace uscd 1 - landau, which is one of the perquisites allowed cabinet officers ; for some weeks after taking, over the Te- partment of Agriculture, but Mrs. %al- lace and their daughters found that time is fleeting and precious. and they sent to Des Moines for their ears. The | Secretary of the Interior and Mrs. Fall use motor cars in Washington, though lthe Secretary owns uvne of the finest {stock farms in the southwest and hab- |itually has more than one hundred sad- dle horses on hard: Mrs. Fall is as fine | {a horscwoman as may be found in her {region, and sh~ thinks nothing of a' 1 hundred-mile de to attend a social affair. She may send for her favorite horse and inaugurate the fashion of the morning cantér, so popular during the Roosevelt regime. President and Mrs. Harding's visit to the Valley Forge country will without i doubt_increase the popularity of that splendid domain which the siate of Pennsylvania has acquired in the inter- ests of patriotisin. Although the Valley | Park lies on the direct road of travel from Philadelphia po'nts a littls to the southwest of New York, few of the motorists include it in the itinerary. although a much wider detour would be entirely worth while. The park is-one of the most care- fully marked snots in the world, and. | sweeping in from the excellent pike which leads off from the old York 1d, it is poss:ble to follow the foot- s of Washington and the conti- nental scldiers through that awful | winter. The headaquarters of the com- manding general have been preserved i with incredible rccuracy, and a visit | to thiz building alone is worth a long and arduous trip instead of a pleasant ride. Then in the Memorial Church which crowns an emincnce overlook- ing the valley and the memorable iforge is found ome of the finest Gothic edifices on this continent. with cloisters and gardens reproduced from Westminster Abbey, and the general jinterior, though much smaller, =2 worthy Teplica cf that Valhalla. e Senator Knox some twenty years ago bought one of the outlying farms in the valley and his land lies near | the northeast boundary of the state reservation. The park is beautiful {2nd romantic and the rugsed hills are inow clothed in wonderful flowers which, though wild. have been train- ed into garden areas and lend a charm which is indescribable. There are no fees whatever attached -to visiting every part of Valley Forge Park. On the contrary, there are guides on hand to awaken slumbering. memory and to point out every sacred spot. ail paid by the state and no tips allowed. | In this season of garden fctes none could be in more glorious surround- : ings than those given by Mr. and Mrs. | Charles J. Bell in Twin Oaks. Those who have recently visited their rose{ garden will not soon forget the vision | which greets one after. passing under | trellis after trellis of ‘roses into the | lower garden, where a superb bed of | deep purnle petunias raise royal heads : almost four feet from the ground and some gold and white columbine flut- ter in the breeze like a flack of but- terflies. And straight through the trees the Cathedral of Sts. Peter and Paul looms over._the scene. Mrs. Bell's rose garden is one of the popular pilgrimages at present, and, despite late frosts and torrential rains, it is in prime condition and her Radiance and Killarney roses and numerous climbing varieties are as profuse and perfect as in other years. But, like the remainder of the flower lovers, Bhe mourned her shrubs, which did not biossom this yea n engagement of supreme impor- tance in the Anglo-American colony of London is that’ of Philips, daughter of the multi-millionaire shipping magnate, Sir Owen_ Philips, and the Honorable George Coventry, eldesat son of the Viscount Deerhurst and heir presumptive to his .grand- father, the octogenarian Earl of Cov- entry. .

So many of the famous country seats in England and on the conti- nent are passing into the hands of Americane that it is- quite ftting some Englishmen should take a> look over real estate offered for sale about ew York and on the sound, which abute into Connecticut. The Honor- able Frederick Guest has recently be- come the owner of the snug little estate of Mr. Alfred Du Pont. In the Roslyn division of Long Island. There is a Georgian yellow brick mansion. 0 acres and a fine lake. Where what y be termed aristocratic fsh were reared in the thousand, a favorite di- version of the former owner, Mr. Du Pont proposes to live most of the year in California. . Frederick Guest married Miss Amy Phipps of Pitts burg, in 1905, and has shown a de- | cided inclination to take over his wife's citizenship. rather than to have it the usual way. Mrs. Guest has s-ent mort of the wnter and spring in Ber- muda and had with her the well known social leader of London, Mrs Georze Keppel. Sheé is the niece of the present senator from Cotorado. | who formerly lived in Pittsburg. Mrs. Edward Thomas Taylor of | Glenwood Springs, - Col. has been passing through harrowing days, since | the family home is right in the heart | swept throush the more famous Colorado | Springs and the adfacent country. Mrs. Taylor, since the November elections, ranks as one of the scniors in thel democratic wing, and is well known | here and in her home state for her | bro»d co-operation with all endeavors { in_which women are concerned. i Though she has adopted the Cen- | tennial state most enthusiastically. she is a native of Council Bluffs, Towa, and lived there until her mar- riage to the present representative from the fourth Colorado district.

She hrs al-| been cordially interested in the Congressional Club, and has for vears ! represented her state on the advisory ' hoard. Mrs. Taylor is always amazed to discover how few visitors to her | ue home state learn of the: Tovely littla sna of Glenweod. where the hot mineral waters perform won- | ders and where the scenery )mrrmsslsl anv of the better known resorts. | The town is on the Grand river; and the railways cut through moun- taing and torrents, which would make | the fortune of a Swiss resort. As, Glenwood a mining center, Mrs.| Taylor has always been concerned in | the efforts to improve living con- ditions of the workers. Representa- | tive and Mrs. Taylor have two sons, Edward, jr. a captain in the Regu! Army. who saw service in the world : war, and Joseph Lvans Taylor, still in collese.

Phone Main 2063 1< What to Give a Girl Graduate tivities. ~Two of the most important nts - registered ‘this_year, one by Al Ayrton, an Englishwoman, Mrs. and the other by Mrs. Henry Alsbau, a Pennsylvanian, are so scientific that the average rson has difficulty in realising w is all about. Mrs. Ayrton's invention is a fan for driving gases and smoke from a driving engine; that of Mrs. Alsbau, who is an electrical engineer and practices her profession in all parts of .the world, is a contrivance for making the aim of a torpedo per- fectly accurate; that is, it stops the shell before it'can pass the target. Both ladles have already reaped a fortune from these inventions. the latter of which must be dishearten- ing to the peace advocates—this en- deavor to make every torpedo death- dealing. Another. Englishwoman is about to emhark for this side to pat- ent her Invention, already highly praised in Great Britain. She is Mrs. Anna Cayley Robinson of Cambridse, who offers that long-souzht commodi- ty, a furnace’ which’ will heat one's house with gas. with oil o1 with coal, but in a way in which %linkers. soot, dust, smoke and every imagina- ble waste product are consumed and turned Into more fuel, thus saving about 40 per cent of the uzual. bill. But Mrs. Ernest Hart of New York claims the greatest invention in that she is about to place un the market a formula for making every sort of material waterproof. including the most delicate evening wrap, aftcrnoon gowns and fragile looking hats all of the French républic, to place the ban -of. disapproval on a certain sort of gown seen s0 frequently this season at garden fetes in Paris and other large cities, by remarking that obvioiisly M, Paul Poiret had designed it- merely to amuse the spectators. It is a sort of loose chemise, high-neck- ed effect, made usually of sprigged silk, of very demure length, with roil- ing collar of organdie, but with sleeves . which swelled into a bell hape and reached the very hem of the gown, spoiling all lines and mak- ing the loveliest maid look grotesque. Others banned were those absurd little . Henri Quartier capes, which hung in the back and gave the most graceful a hunch-backed appearance. Mme. Mfllerand delights in symmetry and good lines. and her criticism, soon re- peated, abolished these two modes over night. For, assuredly none of the votaries of fashion desire to look amusing, no matter how ultra their tastes. f .some arbiter on this side could Tollow the practical first lady of France, some -unbecoming fashions might bé killed as summarily.
