Tales of Well Known Folk In Social and Official Life (Continued from Sixteenth Page.) liam K. Vanderbilt, jr, who were the ploneer homemakers in Sutton Place, on the East River, New York City, have seen the seed they planted pro- duce an abundant crop. An apart- ment house of 13 stories is to be erected on the corner near the river and it will be the last word in ele- gance, spaciousness and such adjuncts as a large garden running along the water front. This part of submerged New York has been redeemed and glven back to residential purposes, beautified and made sanitary. As the last touch, it has been made fash- fonable, and both ladies are rejoiced at the success of thelr efforts. Sena- tor and Mrs. George Wharton Pepper are engaged in a similar crusade in behalf of a vast and abandoned sec- tion of Philadelphia, and their home on Panama street is fast attracting other denizens who recognize the convenience of a small house down town. The Senator remodeled a fine old brick stable sitting right on the in the family library. The roomy attic of the Robbins mansion on Madison avenue has been fitted up a8 a pressroom and workshop and many of the associates of the hostess and her daughter, Mrs. Hoyt, do their work there, too. Mrs. Robbins has recently placed on exhibition a val- uable first edition of Dickens, which she has rebound in the loveliest flex- ible leather with many Intricate de- signs of tooling, and the Robbins book plate stamped in gold leaf &s a centerplece of each volume. -Mrs. Thomas Hunt of Tivoli-on-the-Hud- son has one of the most extensive amateur bookbinding studios in her section and she has visiting masters from Aurora and from other centers where the artistic printing and bind- ing of books is established. There Is also quite a colony of artistic book- binders at Oyster Bay and these ladies have recently exhibited their work in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, and count among them Mrs. George Builock, Mrs. Huntington Norton and Mrs. Bertrand L. Taylor, jr. The Messmore Kendall house at Dobbs Ferry, New York, is to be re- modeled by & well known New York architect and will in future serve as a family mansion. This old Dutch cottage was only a part of the out- houses of the great Phillps estate on the Hudson in pre-Revolutionary days, but it sheltered both Washing- ton and his associate commander, Count de Rochambeau, on a stormy night when the two had met to plan the memorable campaign which end- ed at Yorktown. The British were in posséssion of New York and the reglon was filled with pickets and outposts and it was quite a dan- gerous proceeding for the command- er of the Continental army and of the French army of alliance to meet 50 near to enemy headquarters. In token of the tremendous significance of this conference a noble shaft was in 1904 erected near the old cottage by the Sons of the Revolution of New York State, and this monument is te 1925—PART 2 be Included in the walled garden which is to surround the remodeled strucure. Building about the stout Dutch walls, the new mansion will have the older part merely as a wing and the remainder will be a free interpreta- tion of the Dutch colonial house done in sandstone. The back of the second story will be gabled to conform with the more venerable .part, but the fronc will be much more lofty and will have 'a Summer garden on the roof. Messmore Kendall, an artist, sold this portion of the estate about 20 years ago to a younger branch of the Livingstons who had Inherited much of the adjacent land from the Philips family. The garden, with the monument to Washington and Rochambeau, is to be left open to the public, in accordance with the terms made when it was erected. Dr. and Mrs. Robert de Forest have performed a notable service to the American people in founding and endowing that American colonial wing recently opened in the X politan Museum of Art. Followlig the excellent precedent established in the Albert and Victoria Museum in London, the director of the greatest collection of art which this country contains, has preferred whenever pos- sible to represent a room of a certain period in completeness rather than to exhibit detached pieces of furniture or a single example of rugs or drap- ings. Thus, through the generosity of Mrs. de Forest, who has spent a large fortune in buying historic in- teriors, the tap room of Eagle Tavern in Haverhill, Mass., is presented just as it was when “red coats” chased the Continental soldigrs down the old Boston post road and even before that exciting period, when Indian braves and the farmers waged a continual warfare. A small circular chamber has been taken. bodily .from an old house in Ipwich, Mass., and called “colonial corner” and it proves t the stern Puritan was devoted enough to his household treasures to have brought his fine Jacobean chairs and settees to this country. One splendid type of wainscot chair was carved by its owner while making the long journey from the Hook of Holland to Plymouth on the good ship Anne in 1623. The most ornate room in this colonial collection is the drawing room from Marmion, the manor house of the Fitzhugh family in Staf- ford County, Va. The furniture is original Chippendale, in part, and Erevch in part, with magnificent Ca- thedral chairs and rugs which are worth hundreds of dollars an inch. Booth Tarkington is at present mak- ing his first extended tour of foreign parts, not comprehended by Paris and London, and is accompanied by Mrs. Tarkington, who had never before crossed the Atlantic, though she has journeyed into the Pacific as far as Hawaii. The popular American author and dramatist is on a rest tour, and has vowed to read nothing during his absence except the menu and to put his pen to paper only to sign hotel registers. The Tarkingtons salled the middle of January on a British liner, disembarked at Gibraltar and crossed the Mediterranean Into Alglers, where they are now lingering, though they expeéct to penetrate a bit into the more tranquil dese lands held by the French. After .nis their way Is toward Egypt, with a long crulse on the 'Nile, and then, as the weather warms up In Africa, they will cross to Italy and make thelr way north through Italy and Switzerland, sailing from Havre the end of June. The most American of present men of let- ters denies that he Intends to use material so gathered in future novels or plays except in the genial way in which Italy and parts of France were utilized, in “The Man From Home." He intends to remain the chronicler of American life during his day and gen- eration and not to mix in with prob- lems which are distinctly un-Amerd- " NEW COLONIAL RooMm OW open nightly.

Washington awaits the pioneer of some of the abandoned streets, where fine old brick mansions, with spacious gar- dens, are tenantless or given over to ignominious uses, like cobbler and tailor shops. Many of these look over handsome wide avenues fringed with beautiful trees. Mrs. Julian W. Robbins and her clever daughter, Mrs. Julia Robbins Hoyt, are among the many New York, women who have taken over book binding as an absorbing and most repaying occupation.
