These charming members of Washington's younger set were tiny little lassies when thelr father. came here ten vears ago, and they lived near the park and became very the children to provide something especially nice for birds and for every |1iving thing about their home before they partake of any food. their Dickens must know, turkey plays a big role also. In Vevey, Switzerland, a quaint 11t lost in almost every other part of the world. For pewter in the modern term, and especially the sort called Britannia ware, is principally tin, with a minimum of copper or anti- mony. Mme. Jacques Balzan, more familiar to the American public un- der her former name of Duchess of Marlborough, who passes much time in St Moritz, recently discovered the old pewter shop, and as she is &n en- thusiast over Jacobean rooms. she has almost bought out the establish- ment. She will send some of the best pleces to friends and relatives on this side, where genuine pewter ware is more prized than silver or gold plate. Owners of old colonial homes in this country have lavished every care on pewter collections, getting old pieces whenever possible, for the reason that only the old specimens were pewter and not tin. Now it will be possible secret. Mrs. Oliver H. P. Belmont. jwho recently jointed M. and Mme. Balsan at Sf. Moritz, where they arc watching the winter sports, has also purchased much of the Vevey pewter. and some of the pieces are intended for the buffet in the new home of the Woman’s Natfonal Party In this city. Another foreign offering for Christ- mas will be Some of the exquisitely embroidered headdresses which come from the Danish peasants and which| Queen Alexandra has made fashion- able in London this season. They re- place for the nonce the boudoir cap of lace and ribbons, and are warm] and fetching and have fine qualities of durability. The Danish caps are usually of heavy silk embroidered in gold and silver threads, but many are of heavy gold lace embroidered in bright colors and lined with silk. The dowager queen long has been a patroness of many art schools in Den- mark and her sister, the formerl czarine, being now her guest, the royal ladies are selling these capsi ito aid the Russian refugee fund and are recelving cordial support. Nearly land's latest fad. In their proper place, these jaunty caps are quite large and lined with quilted silk, and they are the most cherished posses- sion of the Danish woman of middle life, and from the time she has grand- children are her complete store of winter millinery, worn at church, to market and to visit. One aspect of American life that is finding many imitators in Great Brit- ain and France is the country club and its myriad activities. In every Journal devoted to outdoor life are pictures and descriptions of the ‘American country club, and one noted | British sheet with fine generosity be- lleves the national golf course at Shinnecock, Long Island, to be the most difficult in the United States, and, when a gale is blowing, it is, as a testing course, superlor even to such links as Greenwich, Baltusrol or the famous links off the Lido. What challenges the admiration of British and French -is the dominat- ing an outlet for every athletic pref- erence, and he meets the entire coun- tryside informally and_gets on fa- miliar terms at once. Now, such in- tercourse would, in the old way in! England, requite weeks of formal dinings, & vast amount of riding TH. W. | scenes and designing patterns for art about and exchanging of calls, and the general frittering away of the stranger’s time before he gof any place at all. Besides, the large ex- ense of keeping its stately rural fomes and the impossiblitly, of get- ting the proper servants to do it, the British host recognizes_ the unneces- sary strain involved and the painful loss of time and very reluctantly his acknowledging that we do it better over here. In France the same con- clusicn has been reached, and already there are experts here studying the ways and means of conducting coun- try clubs. That vivaclous taworite of the oot~ Jongg, the royal Chinese game, a daintily prepared little book called “The Game of the Hundred Intelli- gencies” {is proving an acceptable Christmas gift. It comes from some Chinese importers in San neisco and New York, with which it is of- fered for sale together with the im- plements of the game. Mah-Jongg, some features of bridge, of poker and of tennis. No wonder it requires a full hundred demands on the brain for the student to master its details and some statistics of their perfor mances.

Mrs. Larz Anderson frequently exchanges seeds and roots with friends and neigh- bors and happy, indeed, are those who receive some of the celebrated Japanese iris, collected when Mr. Anderson served briefly as ambassador to Japan. Mrs. . Harding, eince coming to the White House, has recelved so many re- | quests for roots or seeds from the lovely flower pots about the mansion that she would welcome permission to scatter such treasure among flower lovers of the country. But the White House gardens are under almost mili- tary rule and seeds and extra bulbs and roots are carefully taken to the propa- gating gardens for the innumerable de- mands which come for flowers through- out the entire year. Kan., as a young gl Mme. Norman studied art in Paris, but her natural preference was for reviving anclent illuminating and she studied for sev- eral years in the School of St. Mark in_ Venice, then patiently spent years taking lessons in convents and in lace and embroidery schools, meantime keeping the pot . bolling by water color sketches of familiar Itallan embroidery. Within~ the past week her most extensive work has been placed on exhibition in the New York Public Library, “Ecclesiastes or the Preacher.” and it is pronounced by various art commissions the most per- fect illuminating since the middle ages. There are marginal and' full- page illustrations, and the book is one of ten printed on vellum by the Bal- lantyne Press in black and red and is what s known as king’s font, pat- ented by Charles Hickman.
