' SOC Capital Welcomes Back Wife of New Vermont Senator Mrs. Frank Lester Greenei Was Prominent in Society Here When Husband Was Member. Mrs. Frank Lester Greene of St. Albans, Vt., who has lived in Wash- ington for ten years and made many friends as the wife of the member of Congress from that picturesque little city, steps into the higher sena- torial role through the selection of her husband to succeed the venerable Carroll €. Page, who voluntarily laid down the burden of the public serv- ice. As the successor of Miss Alice Page, who so graclously played the part of chatelaine for her father and was the only ome in the senatorial circle from the Green Mountain state, Mrs. Greene will be most acceptable. Because of ill-health, she has been compelled to live rather quietly for the past few years, but she ls much more robust now and may be included in the rather short list of New Eng- land legislative hostesses who will participate in the amenities of the winter. Mre. Greene is a rock-ribbed New Englander and, though she has passed the greater portion of her life right in St. Albans, she is a native of Bos- ton and is the daughter of Mr. Aliera Steele Richardson and of his wife, who was Miss Emma Soule of the same city. She was educated partly in Boston and attended school also for a time in St. Albans, where her marriage occurred some thirty years . _The three chlldren of the sena- from Vermont and Mrs. ireene are well known in Washing- ron. though they did not attend its schools. The eldest son, Richardson Lester Greene, is now a captain in the fleld artillery and, with his wife, is a frequent visitor to his parents. He went from Phillips-Andover Academy into West Point. Mra, Alexander, the ; only daughter, as 2 Dorothy (ireene, took a little 4 nto things social after completing her course in Bryn Mawr, She lives in St. Albans and makes Visits to her parents oc- | casionally. The younger son, Stuart | Greene, chose a business career and, | after finishing in the High School of | St. Albans, went into an automobile concern. Mrs. Greene is essentially of the home type, but she acknowledges membership in two clubs—one the Automobile Club of Stfi Albans, of ! fi which her son Stuart is a most en- thusjastic member, and the other the Congressional Club of this city. She is one of the few woman who de- lights in fine sewing. and during her | ff semi-invalid days she became such | &n expert in the fashioning of neck- ties that she is now famous, not only n her own bailiwick. but far beyond it. Her husband is given precedence over all the other members of the House of Representatives for the number and elegance of his neck pleces and also for the perfectl with which their colors blend into l._weeds or cloth suits and other ticles of his raiment. Mr. Greene| finally betrayed his secret, which was | that with every new suit went a sam- | 4 Dle of the goods to Mrs. Greene, w! forthwith sent it on to the big sto. of Boston and New York for silic of | THE A VENU YETY, .
