Mise Flizabeth Estes and Miss Margaret Shaw White House Family Finds Opera, Cruises and Sport| Make Stay Here Pleasant Coolidges Tomorrow Will Receive Gen. and Mrs. Dawes—OQOutdoor Parties at Summer Homes Near Capital Enjoyed. SALLIE V. H. PICKETT. ITH the monotony of life at the White House broken by the visit of their sons, trips on the peaceful waters of the Potomac THE and other diversions like national conventions, the President and Mrs. Coolidge-are really enjoying life and are apparently free from the worries a campaign year is likely to bring. They are on the Mayflower today with their sons, who are soon to leave for New England, John Coolidge, who recently graduated from Mercersburg | Academy, going for his second summer, and his brother, Calvin Coolidge, | jr., for his first summer, at Camp Devens. After attending the base ball game Thursday with their sons, the President and Mrs. Coolidge again had them as companions at Poli's in the evening, when they enjoyed the De Wolf Hopper Opera Company in “Robin Hood.” | | 'OMORROW the vice presidential candidate, Gen. Dawes, will arrive, accompanied by Mrs. Dawes, and they will be guests at the White House until after July 4, the day set for the President to be officially notified of his nomination. Even in‘the midst of a presidential campaign, with her husband a candidate, Mrs. Coolidge has time for many of the small and often pleasurable duties that fall to the lot of the first lady of the land. While the President is receiving official notification of his nomination another exciting little scene will take place. This will be in Ashburnham, Mass., the burial place of Lieut. Monroe, who fired the first zun at Lexington, where one of the thrilling features of the Fourth of July celebration will be opening 2 White House envelope in which is a slip of paper bearing a girl's name. It is the one chosen by Mrs. Coolidge ior the doll presented by Mrs. Clifford Walker, wife of the Governor of Georgia, who sent the doll as a special prize in some of the contests of the day. HERE are not many—if any—homes like Biltmore, the Vanderbilt estate at Asheville, in America, but more and more Americans are turning to the possibilities of country life, and about the Capital it is taking the form of large or small estates within easy reach of Wash- ington, but where the joys of trees and outdoor life may be had. Mr. and Mrs. Walter R. Tuckerman, who remain until past midsummer in their comfortable home at Edgemoor, introduced one of their pleasant innovation in entertaining Tuesday night, when the ambassador of Spain and Senora de Riano and others joined them at dinner and remained for a moving picture show in their garden. A charming outdoor affair a week ago was the at home on the lawn of Greenacre, where Mr. and Mrs. R. M. Kauffmann received a large number of their friends to christen their new suburban home and at the same time haye their friends meet Mrs. Willis, the. mother of the hostess. NUMBER of the women well known in Washington drawing rooms were presented at court in London last week by the ambassador and Mrs. Kellogg, among_the number being Mrs. George Marye and her daughter, Miss Helen Marye, soon returning to America; Mrs. Guy Camp- bell, formerly Natalie Magruder of Washington, who was presented by her cousin, Viscountess Grey of Fallodon; Miss Margaret Treadwell and Miss Mary Treadwell and some of the more intimate friends of Mrs, Kellogg, made while. her husband was in the Senate. THE weddings of June, the month of brides, rarely have presented a greater number of important ones than this year, and yesterday wit- nessed one’of -the most beautiful of the entire Tlist, when Miss Amelia Neville Johnson, daughter of Dr.and Mrs. Loren Johnson, was married to Maj. David Sheldon Barry, jr. United States Marine Corps, all the pretty traditions of a service wedding being carried out. There are some pleasant rumors of engagements afloat, and it _is not unlikely that there will be another cabinet wedding before the close of the Coolidge admin- istration. o PRI, NS T4 5 N .

HARRISE EWING Name of “Pat" Sticks To Senator Harrison Despite Wife's Demur Eloquent Mississippian Is Proud of Appellation Ac- quired When as Boy He Served as “Newsy." Should any one address a letter to the Honorable Byron Patton Harri- son, the chances are good that the missive would not reach its destina- tion. Some years ago Mrs. Harrison, wife of the Democratic keynoter, realizing that she was the mother of a growing family and occupied a stately role In the official world, de- cided that “Pat” was all well enough for home, but that it was time that both she and the conscript father from Mississippi should blossom forth under their proper appellation, which is Byron Patton Harrison. But the innovation did not last overnight. The senator gayly waved the reformer aside, and having been dubbed *Pat" in his boyhood, when he carried pa- pers to eke out his slender resources toward an education, he decided to stick to it, no matter how high he climbed the ladder of fame, nor how big and important his family grew. It there- fore amused his friends and brought broad smiles from Mrs. Harrison when the Social Register dubbed him Patrick Harrison. The Pat Harrisons live in a com- fortable home out on Cathedral ave- nue, and the ladies of the family in- tend to remain there the greater part of the summer. Ii August the sena- tor is due at his home, which is near that beautiful and enterprising re- sort and commercial harbor, Gulf- port, one of the newer cities on the Gulf of Mexico, between Biloxi and Pass Christian. He comes up for election this autumn, and he must needs watch the progress of events. Political ambitions are fervent and frequently manifested in Mississippi. and despite his eloquence, prominence in national affairs and political acu- men, he faces serious opposition for renomination. Mrs. Harrison may ac- company him, but this is not quite decided. Meantime she and the two daughters—Katherine, who is four- teen, and has just completed the grade course at the Cooke School, near her home, and will enter Central High School in the autumn, and Maryanna, who is twelve and still at the Cooke School—are enjoying life and entertaining their friends in a pleasant informal way. The boy, who is the junior Byron Patton: Har- rison, and whom his mother sternly insists shall be called Byron and not Patton or Pat, is on the home ground for the summer, and is the guest of his grandparents’ Mr. and Mrs. Hugh Mclnnis, at Leakesville, a pretty ham- let almost on the border of the two states, Alabama and Mississippi. He is a student at the Central High School, and next year will have the pleasant duty of escorting his elder sister to the same institution. Senator. and. Mrs. Harrison came to Washington _in , -when the “for- BT on SUNDAY STAR .

The wedding of Miss Amelta Neville Johnson and Maj. David Sheldon Bar- ry, U. 8. M. C., at noon yesterday, in the home of the bride's parents, Dr. and Mrs. Loren B. T. Johnson, was one of the notable events at the close of a long series of the most elabor- ately arranged and beautiful June weddings Washington has boasted in many seasons.
