DOWNING. President Coolidge il tomorrow follow the time-hallowed precedent of sending to Mount Vernon a wreath of flowers from the White House Ppropagating gardens to be placed ever the tomb of Washinston, and at the same time, in compliance with orders, appropriate floral emblems will be placed upon the tomb of Prest- dent and Mrs. Harding, in Marion, ©Ohio, and, naturally, his own beloved dead, resting in the family plot at Plymouth, Vt., will not be forgotten. For many years each Chief Execu tive sent by private messengers flow. ers from the White House conserva- torles, then a part of the presiden- tal mansion, to those dead Magls- trates of the Nation who were con- tldered as national martyrs, Lincoln, Grant and Carfield, and to the tom of the first patriot, at Mount \crm;‘n: President McKinley observed this eustom with much solemnity and fre- Quently the wreaths intenad for Grant's tomb, in Riverside, and for Tincoln's, in _Springfield, would be piaced on exhibition in some business establishment.

Mme. Hallencreutz was, before her mar- riage, Miss Cara Leffler of Gothenburg, and their beautiful home, Villa Sara- on-the-Sea, is one of the radiating points of social life of that section. The former Swedish Minister and Mme. Wallenberg are friends of many years, and they showed Maj. and Mme. Hallencreutz much_attention during their residence in the Capital. Mme.

'Mr. and Mrs. Macrshall Field had less than five years |ago purchased the adjoining house to the Blairs, and they are far from pleased to be overshadowed by a big house. This particular | section of Fifth avenue, near Seventy- second street, seems to have suffered more from the inroads of business and progress than the streets 10 blocks below. Practically the only private dwelling untouched is that of the late Henry C. Frick. This can only be called a private home by courtesy, since the entire middle section and wings have been converted into an art gallery, to which the public is ad- mitted at certain times, and Mrs. Frick and her daughter, when in town, inhabit only a few rooms to the back, or generally go to a hotel. Every one who is familiar with the homes of the old days in New York City remembers the exquisite French salon copled to the last inch from one of the most ornate rooms in the little place of the Trianon in Versailles. All the furnishings of this chamber, even the painted walls, have been re- moved to the Blair country house, in Long Island. Mr. Blair has a flne collection of early Ffench tapestries, the majority of which have been pre- sented to the Metropolitan Museum.

Senor Mezquita, who 18 one of the youngest members of the Royal Academy of San Ternando, is now in this country visiting Mr. and Mrs. Archer M. Huntington, and he received the medal in person at the headquarters of the Hispanic Club at its April meeting. This artist, not so well known in this country as some of his contemporaries, is noted for his gay pictures of the gypsies about Se- ville, and it was one which caught the fancy of the Infanta Isabella, sis- ter of the king, who purchased it, and learning that the painter had re- celved no training as it is understood today, financed him for four years in the Madrid school and afterward in s. He more than repaid that loan, m‘b&sldel won the friendship and ad- miration of his sovereign by his frank and business conduct in regard to the royal patronage. While in New York Senor Mezquita will paint portraits of Mr. and Mrs. Huntington, the latter, being an old friend of the artist and fellow student in Paris. She was be- fore her marriage Miss Anna Vaughn Hyatt, a recognized and very talented 8. sculptre: Among those who greeted the Crown Prince of Sweden and Princess Louise at the Swedish legation were the son and daughter-inlaw of the late Maj. Frederik Anders Hallen- creutz, formerly aide-de-camp to King Oscar 1II, grandfather of Gustavus Adolphus. Maj. Claes Hallencreutz ‘erd his wife are at present living in Washington. The Hallencreutz fam- ily is one of Sweden’s most distin- guished and one which has furnished martial, civil and judicial officers for the kingdom for many centuries past. In the present generation many mem- bers of the family have turned to mer- cantile pursuits, and they are well The American known in South Africa, where their establishments practically encircle all the belts of civilization~ Maj. Fred- the eloquent champion of the move- ment recently started in the British Isles and in all English-speaking countries to save the famous Durham Castle from threatened destruction. The destruction, however, is the re- sult of time, and not, as in so many instances, of modern progress. For the renowned Cathedral and Castle of Durham bear the weight of nine centuries and, though the former has manfully withstood the ravages of the years, the castle, according to the eminent architects in charge of West- minster, St. Paul's and of the Houses of Parliament, needs immediate atten- tion if it is to remain one of the noblest buildings of Britain, stand- ing as it does beside the Cathedral, above the River Wear. The castle has been for years a part of the Uni- versity of Durham and has been an object of veneration and tender care, but the expense of supporting and partially rebuilding some of the foundations of this medieval structure is so colossal that Lord Durham has issued an appeal to all English-speak- ing people, and especially those in whose veins flows & strain of Dur- hamshire blood. There has been a response, as Mr. Walton expressed it in his letter to North of England men and women in Uncle S8am's do- main, from “duke to dustman, from marquis to miner and from scholar to scavenger.” Durham has a writ- ten history back to the opening days of the ninth century and a traditional one beforé the Romans crossed into Britain. The cathedral and castle are so nobly situated on a steep bluff above the Wear that few groups of buildings have called forth the enthuslasm of architects and ar- tists so continuously. The palatinate of Durham, founded in the Middle Ages, served as a pattern from Lord Baltimore’s palatinate in Maryland, an additional reason for Americans to assist in saving the castle. Mrs. B. Tappen Fairchild, chair- man of the Manhattan Council of the Girl Scouts, and an officer of the international board, is one of the most accomplished whistlers outside of professional circles, and there are many who recall her student days when she was the pride of Miss Spence’s School. Many the offer has she declined to adorn the stage and in many flattering roles. She uses her unique talent to good purpose in raising funds for her organization, and she has trained a number of girls who showed talent in this line. Mr. and Mrs. Fairchild have a daughter, Miss Talia, now a student at Miss Spence's, and, like her moth- er, so expert a whistler that she carries an air as tunefully and agree- ably as though she sang it. She, too, is always in demand at the school entertainments, when she usually has a male part, and her whistling causes the utmost enthusiasm. The Fair- child home, on upper Fifth avenue, is frequently the scene of operatic performances at which all the roles are whistled. Mrs. Fairchild is the daughter of the late Gen. Frank Free- man, a publicist of the era of the late David Hill and a member of the governor’s staff when he was the executive of the Empire State. Gen. Freeman was one of the leading members of the New York yacht clubs and sailed his own boats in several races of an earlier day. Pretty candidates for social honors are to claim attention in Philadelphia all through June, and no less than five of the most prominent debutantes of the season will have distinctive par- ties in the Summer homes of their parents, “and these charming func- tions will form part of the entertain- ment provided for special guests dur- ing the opening days of the sesqui- centennial. Miss Ines Snowden, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. George Grant Snowden, will, on June 9, have an alfresco dinner, followed by a re- ception and dance at Highland Hall, Rosemont, about 10 miles from the Quaker City. Scores of visiting celeb- raties will be asked to the later amen- ity. On June 10 Miss Anna Hayward, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Nathan Hayward, will be presented at an aft- ernoon tea and dance at Chilton, near ‘Wayne, Pa. The following day Miss Anna , daughter of Dr. end Mrs. Francis Packard, will be pre- sented to her parents’ friends and to a ‘number of distinguished visitors in the lovely old garden back of the rnassive brick dwelling at 304 South Nineteenth street, just off Rittenhouse Square, and where probably the same trees and glorious hedges were flour- ishing during the exciting days_of 1776. Miss Mary Lea, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Langdon Lea, will have a pretty coming-out party at the Sum- mer home, at Wayne, on June 10, and Miss Marie B. Fraley, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Bradford Fraley, will have all of soclety to see her gay entrance into the social world at Meadowlane Hall, Chestnut Hill, Phil- adelphia, on June 24. 5 In addition to this array of private amenities, scores of homes closed in former Summers, will be opened by June in order that the stranger with- l. the gate may recelve every social tant member of its Wintet colony. Another splendid old mansion in attention Ible. Mr. and Mrs. An- thony J. Drexel Biddle, who have a Summer residence at Princeton, will remain in Philadelphia all through the Summer. Mr. and Mrs. Bayard Henry of Germantown have renounced a motor trip through southern Eu- rope, and Mr. and Mrs. Robert E. Strawbridge and Mrs. Barclay War- burton will remain in their Philadel- phia homes during June and July. The late Gen. Howard S. Borden's Summer home, near Rumson, N. J., was destroyed by fire a few weeks ago, and thus removed one of the great social centers of 50 years ago. The Oaks was built soon after the Civil War, and through the last quar- ter of the nineteenth century it was one of the most hospitable homes in Jersey. Gen. Borden, one of the founders of the lacteal manufacturies, delighted in gathering scores of friends and coaching on the River road, a fine tharoughfare in the 80s, and taking a boatload of visitors to the seashore. He bullt a long rambling wooden structure, where amateur theatrical productions amused the guests and sometimes the entire troupe of a musical comedy would be staged for a night or two at The Oaks. The Borden family has rarely occupled the mansion since the gen- eral's death, the younger members having erected more modern homes |* in Rumson. The season in this pretty Jersey resort, like that at Spring Lake, lasts about nine months, only the Winter luring the residents from thelr charming retreats. * Eltwood Pomeroy’s memory will be honored in connection with the three hundredth anniversary of the found- ing of the first parish church at Dor- chester, Mass., for this spiritual shep- herd in that far-off era, migrated with a considerable number of his flock to the softer climate of Connecticut and he founded, at Windsor, the oldest parish church in the Nutmeg State. Eltwood Pomeroy sailed on the “Mary and John” from Plymouth and be- came one of the strongest men who joined the Massachusetts colony with- in five years after the landing of the Mayflower. His migration to Con- necticut is recorded in 1633, and he is considered one of the civil leaders, as well as the religious pioneer of this flourishing New England State. The first parish .church of Dorchester is making elaborate preparations for its tercentennary in three years, and from a historical standpoint the cele- bration will be of prime importance. The present edifice which stands on the exact spot where the first log hut, the meeting house as it was called in the annals, was built. Five other churches have covered this spot, each being larger and more pretentious as the fortunes of the colonists improved and they were able to import both talent and material from the mother country. The church at Windsor, Conn., founded by Eltwood Pomeroy, will celebrate its 300 years of contin- ual existence seven years hence, and already there is much activity among the present worshipprs to interest the descendants of the first parishioners in this unique event. 0Old King Tut fs responsible for a pretty romance which will end at the nuptial altar this Autumn when Miss Dorothy Lamont of Lake Forest, near Chicago, will become the bride of Mr. Chauncey Belknap of Princeton, N. J, Mr. Belknap, it will be recalled, was sent to Egypt about a year ago as the personal representative of John D. Rockefeller, jr., ‘to offer to King Fuad the vast sum of $10,000,000 with which to erect a great American mu- seum in which to shelter the treas- ures taken from: the royal tombs.

MARTIN JOSEPH GANNON, Daughter of Col. and Mrs. Lewis Clark Lucas, and before her marriage Fri- day Miss Paula Easby Lucas. King Fuad did not accept this propo- sition with alacrity, but while waiting around for a conclusive answer, Mr. Belknap met Miss Lamont. After that event, the young people became most earnest archeologists and were almost as active about King Tut's tomb as the rival American and Brit ish excavators. However, Miss La- mont's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Robert Paterson Lamont, were not so eager as to the outcome of Mr. Rockefeller’s proposition and they sailed for home late in March, and Mr. Belknap was not long behind them. The engage- ment was formally announced about a week ago, but the date of the wed- ding remains to be fixed later, for naturally the honeymoon will be spent on the Nile where Mr. Belknap will resume his interrupted negotiations with Egyptian royalty. He is a na- tive of Roselle, N. J., and after gradu- ating from Princeton in 1912, he was law secretary to Asscolate Justice Holmes of the Supreme Court until he was called to adventure by the ‘World War. He served in France for a year and joined the American ex-| peditionary forces in 1917. Troop 1, Miss Julia Palmer, cap- tain, held its regular meeting at the home of the captain in Potomac Heights.
