I 3 White Housein New Guise Mansion to Be Thoroughly Overhauled and Renovated—Washington Not Entirely Deserted by the Official Folk. SALLIE V. H. PICKETT. HILE the President and Mrs. Coolidge are acquainting them- selves with the first real rest they have had in some years, and enjoying the bracing air of the North Shore, their official resi- dence here is being prepared for its overhamling, and Miss Marlan and a few White House attaches are here to look after the inter- i§sts of both the mansion and its absent hos The doors of the resi- idence are open to tourists during the earlier hours of the week days, and ighere, as in the exccutive offices, patriotic citizens love to tarry, even if “$or only a few brief moments. Just now the chief visitors are brides and idegrooms from distant cities, students from many schools over the Wountry first having had their fling. I PICTURE of the President and Mrs. Coolidge on the lawn at White % Court, with Rob Roy tugging at a leash held by his mistress, as their {gompanion, is so familiar a sight as almost to be mistaken for a picture ‘of the same happy-looking trio on the south front lawn at the White ‘House. Mrs. Coolidge is taking up her interrupted course of reading, and she sews and embroiders a little each day and visits and goes shopping th Mrs. Stearns, her nearby neighbor, and who is a frequent White House guest in the midsocial season. N\JOR is Washington a deserted city. The Secretary of State and Mrs. =V Kellogg. who had hoped to take their rest in St. Paul, are being de- Sained here by State Department affairs, and their leave-taking for a Sum- fner vacation is uncertain. Mrs. Kellogg presents a charming picture as She goes about the strect in her dainty Summer dresses and hats, and $vhile dining out rather informally she devotes much time to arranging the residence at the corner of Nineteenth and R streets, which they again are calling their home. ' NE of the things which has amused Mrs. Kellogg's iriends is any refer- ence to a jeweled pin which Queen Mary is supposed to have pre- }ented to her. It would almost provoke temper in the wife of the Secre- tary of State had she not a wholesome sense of humor, and, even as the matter stands, it has been embarrassing. The gift from the queen of a Jeweled ornament was wholly in the mind of a reporter who wrote it, and While autographed photographs of their royal highness will be much sur- Teyed objects in the drawing-rooms of the Kellogg home next Winter, the Jewels will not be seen ARIOUS of the Ambassadors and other diplomats held in the Capital ? by the discussion of foreign debts, are dining about with little parties of friends, and a particularly interesting alfresco party was that at Dower fious:. in Maryland, during the week, when the Italian Ambassador and obile Donna de Martino were in the company. Mrs. John R. Williams had an imposing, if informal, little company dining with her during the week, the Ambassador of Spain and Senora de Riano and the Secretary f State and Mrs. Kellogg being of the company, and in all of the clubs and hotels little luncheon or dinner parties of diplomats and officials may be noted. ‘A T 11 o'clock this morning the little Bethlehem Chapel of the Cathedral of St. Peter and St. Paul will be the scene of an imposing ceremony, hen. with the Minister of the Serbs, Croates and Slovenes, Dr. Ante *rmich-?avichlch. and his staff present, the 536th anniversary of the bat- tle of Kossova will be celebrated Dr. DeVries will explain the signifi- cance of the celebration, and the Serbian flag will be carried in the pro- tession with the American flag, and the cathedral choir wilt sing the Ser- bian national British Embassy Located i At Manchester-by-the-Sea The British embassy is now quite fully established at Manchester-by-the- Sea, and with the exception of a few fmembers the entire staff is there.
