Upholstery 2 Society in Congress for ‘Why mnot a society in the houses of Congress composed of Sons and grand- sons of former national legislators? It would be just as logical as that of the deacendants of colonial governors, of naval sponsors and a half dozen others, and it could begin in the first session of the Sixty-seventh Congress with a distinguished membership. Senator Joseph Sherman Frelinghuy- sen of New Jersey would claim imme- diate consideration because he is the great-grandson, grandson and son of a former United States senator. Sen- ator Frederick Hale of Maine is the son of the late Eugene Hale of the same state and the grandson of Zach- ary Chandler of Michigun. Senator Davis Elkins is the son of the late Stephen B. Elkins of West Virginia and grandson of Henry Gassaway Davis of the same state. Senator |the Texarkana district in Congress for ten years and on his death was elected to serve the unexpired term. Later Mr. She succeeded Joseph W. Balley In the Senate. Representative Wallace Humphreys White is the grandson of the venerable William Plerce Frye of Maine, who served his House and then in the Senate. Reb- I% | resentative White acted for many years as the private secretary of his grandfather and came to the Sixty- sixth Congress entirely prepared for the work. Senator Peter Goelet Gerry of Rhode Island is the fifth in descent from that Eldridge Gerry who was a member of the Continental Congress and afterward Vice President of the United States and Governor of - sachusetts. Dr. Livingston Farrand's appointment as president of Comnell University will remove a dignifled and important family from Washington, Since 1919 he has Farrand and Miss Farrand have been active coadjutors in philanthropy and in social matters. Mrs. Farrand was the prime leader in that marvelous ball giv- en on March 4, of consolation offering to those who mourned the usual inaugural festivities jand an_opportunity to aid ap worthy cause. Dr. Farrand, prior to taking over the heavy post-war burden of .the Red Cross, had achieved an international fame through his efforts to lessen the mortality of the soldiers in the trenches, where tuberculosis was ram- pant. In this campaign, Mrs. Farrand Former Legislators Proposed—Soéiety Seeks Coofing Breezes A_bout Detroit. Morris Sheppard of Texas is the son of John L. Sheppard, who represented | Bf state nearly forty years, first in the g served with the Red Cross, while Mrs. | g as a combination was eagerly associafed, as she was prior Yo the war. in her haband's tremendous and successful efforts in the same di- rection which were staged in_Colorado. She was before her marriage Miss Mar- garet Charleton of New York,and, though a well known social favorite, she always showed a bent toward relieving phys- jcal suffering and from her childhood had belong;g to societies organized for that purposé. The Farrands will make a series of visits along the sound and the North Shore and will take up their permanent residence in Ithaca early in September. So many people from every part of the world seek the cooling breezes which_blow all through the summer around Detroit and the waters which surround it that Mrs. Edwin Denby's departure for the summer home of her family on Will pond is quite logical. The Secretary of the Navy prefers an occasional week of holiday in familar moorings to week ends in this section. The lake front of Detroit, and espe- : i i |ctally that part known as Grosse point; is world famous for the beauty of THE SHOP FOR YOUNG FOLKS AND YOUTHFUL APPAREL FOR EVERYWOMAN F at Tenth St. Lowest Prices in Years in This August Sale of Furs No August Sale in the past five or six years is com- parable, from the standpoint of price, with this event.

Extraordinary qualities. Ex- situation and sumtuousness of build- ings and figures continuously in art magazines as well as on the canvas of artists. The Newberry home is one of the most beautiful on the point and is surrounded at this season with a glory of white, blue and rose pink hydrangeas against the house, while a’long border of pink and white phlox enlivens the curved flagged walks. Mrs. Denby, who has just completed the task of getting her new home, the former Wolcott Tuckerman house, in order, will remain in the Detroit mansion with her two children, Marion and_Edwin, until late in September. ‘While the memories of her former résidence in Washington are always pleasant, she recalls with what reliel her parents used to flit to Marion, Mass., her birthplace, and which, as for Marion Cleveland, furnished her with & name. The late Thomas Jef- ferson was a near neighbor of the Thurbers, Mrs. Denby’'s parents, and || he was fond of saying that the finest summer climate in the world was to be found on Buzzards bay. Mrs. Denby, however, gives that praise to Detroit and her particular nook on Will pond. Prince Francesco Rospigliosi, who recently purchased an extensive sum- mer place in.the Southampton col- ony, is the son of a former Washing- ton woman, Marie Reid, who first married Frederick Parkhurst, after- ward Governor of Maine. The Park- hurst-Reld marriage became a cele- brated on two continents through the efforts of Mrs. Parkhurst, lafter a legal divorce, to have the first ceremony declared null and void in order that she might- marry Prince Rospigliosi, head of one of the oldest and most stately of Roman families. | This, however, the. Roman curia re- fused, and the union was never ecclesiastically recognized. Prince Francesco was the only child, and his rights were legalized after his fa- ther's death. Hjs mother died three years ago, and, immediately after he made his first visit to this country, accompanied by his wife, who is also partly American. Prince Rospigliosi is, through his mother, a grondson, five times removed, of -the herolc Capt. Reid, commander of the brig General Armstrong, which performed such memorable deeds off the coast of Portugal at the end of the war of 1812. Capt. Reid was presented with the original flag of John Paul Jones as the supreme reward for his courage and resource. and his achievement stands unrivaled even by the deeds of Perry at Lake Erie. Senator Rey Pittman reached Ne- | la by a rather circuitous.route, be- | ing a native of that historic town on the Mississippi, Vicksburg, and the |{son of eminent citizens who defendeq é: against the army of Gi rant, h er being William Buckner Pfl.:? man and his mother, Miss Catherine || Key. both of the opulent planter class located on and about the Yazoo.

Mrs. Pitt- also |came interested in_ the young . miner- attorney, who had taken such a bold stand.- Senator Pittman's vigorous prosecution in the famous mine own- ters’ litization prompted Rex Beach to. write “The Spoilers” and he is proba- bly the one member of the Senate who is the hero of a thrilling and entirely succesful romance. Senator and Mrs. Pittman live, when in Washington, at the Wardman prominent part in social affairs. Travelers who include a visit to New York city in the days when the passing throng is considerably less than usual will find the Metro- politan. Museum a fascinating place for a few cool hours. All the vari- ous legacies of the late William K. ‘Vanderbilt are now in position and those unique pieces of French fur- niture may be examined and even sketched at leisure.

For years cer- tain French curio dealers were gath- ering the articles which Marie An- tionette brought to Paris, two dower chests, a pier mirror, a tollet table, a secretaire, two chairs and a desk. -They are among the finest specimens in existence and came to Vienna first with Francis of Lor- raine, who married Maria Theresa, Empress of Austria and mother of the poor young princess who took them back to France as part of her dower. The secretaire is also a jewel case and could secrete a vast amount of jewelry and plate. The pieces are buhl and all have black Irish squire who can walk his ten miles before breakfast, row any num- ber of miles on_his lovely lake and his elder brother, Lord Ardilaun, are the principal benefactors of the Irish capital and have ‘finally finished the fying the River Liffey, which divides Dublin into two- equal parts.
