8 Tales of Well In Social and Qfficial Life First White House Reproduced in D. A. R. Section ‘at Sesquicentennial—Harry Payne Whitney Returns to Ya BY MARGARET B. DOWNING. Mrs. Alexander Ennis Patten, na tional officer in charge of the Daugh- ters of American Revolution activities of the Sesquicentennial, which em- hrace the reproduction of the Execu «ive Mansion occupied by Presi- dent and Mrs. Washington on a street which has been named the “Street of *76," is well known in the Capital and has a reputation for achieving her purpose. Mrs. Patten followed the old prints of this domicile, which is some- what erroneously called the “first White House,” though New York had two Executive Mansions. the first on Cherry street and another on Wall street, before the ital was re- moved to the Quaker City. President Washington selected as his official home in Philadelphia the Robert Morris mansfon, in which he had| been the guest of the owner while he | was attending the sessions of the | constitutional convention. It with | out doubt the most imposing and cost- 1y abode in the city, was of brick with light stone trimmings and had two ! large bronze lamps in front of the door. A fine garden to the side and back enhanced the comfort of the distinguished occupants, accustomed | as they were to the space and tran- | quillity of Mount Vernon. With | great industry and discrimination, | Mrs. Patten has had produced a fine | colonial interior, and this -stately | mansion will be the headquarters of | the D. A. It delegates visiting the | Sesquicentennial. It was not pos- sible to have a formal opening of the mansion, since the members of the| great society have been in atten since April preparing for the spec Jefferson centennial and for the week of exercises preparatory to the 150th anniversary of the signing. | always lived at President and Mrs. Coolidge will be entertained on July 5 in the D.

Many of the original Morris furnishings have been loaned the D. A. R. White House. as the popular name is conferred on this abode of the first Plesident and his lady. and these include some strik- | ing-looking silver and porcelain and feav of those splendid reed-bottom Sheraton chairs which always graced | h a room as the Morrises had made a dining room. Mrs. Coolidge will without a doubt cajoy this part of the Sesquicentennial, not alone from the assoelation, but because she will realize her ambition in seeing a Pres- ident's home entirely equipped in | colonial style and from the best which could be produced in the way of home adornment. Mr. Harry Payne Whitne: - turn to vachtdom has occasioned a vociferous welcome among his old as- sociates in the New York Yacht Club. For a number of years this foymerly enthusiastic salt went over bag and baggage to the turf, and though he remalned a member in good standing. he was so rarely with- in the club quarters that few of the newcomers knew him by sight. Now, however, he is resigning the horse problem 'to the capable hands of a manager and he has taken over the one-time schooner, the Vanitie, turned into a sailing yacht, and has issued challenges to all and sundry that sail the seas. He will be a contestant for the honor of defending ‘‘America’s | Cup” and will soon sail the Vanitie against the Resolute, which won the honors at the last international race, The Resolute is now the property of Mr. . Walter Clark of Philadelphi tha defense svndi according to custom, having placed it for sale soon ' after itx famous vict Mr. Whit- | ney’s yacht has a national reputatior for being a stormy petrel, and. like | many race horses which run better | on a muddy track, this ship could make time under the heaviest weather, while she was apt to lag in sunshine But certain changes have been made, &0 goes the rumor, which make the Vanitie able to speed upon in fair | weather as well as in foul. Mrs. Willlam Adams Brown, who was the hostess of the Crown Prin- cess of Sweden in the Colony Club just before the royal visitors de- parted from Gotham on their travels, became friendly with the future Queen of the Swedes last summer when she was in Stockholm attend- ing an international Christian Church . vonference. This energetic American proved a congenial companion for the Princess, 1% the two served on several committees, Mrs. Brown is the president of the Woman's Land Army., a movement which made a profound impression in Stockholm, and several similar organi- zations have been started. She also founded the Cosmopolitan Club in New York Cit social organization Which has proven of distinct advan- tage to professional women. It h: done veoman work in placing ambi- tious young candidates for fame and fortune who come to New York with high hopes and little revenue. Dr. Willlam Adams Brown is a well known theological professor and writer. He is the son of the late James Croshy Brown, former banker. and grandson of the late James Brown, international banker, of New York, Parls and Lon- don. Dr. and Mrs. William Adams Brown, at the invitation of Prince Gustay Adolphus and Princess Louise, will spend part of the next Summer in Sweden as their guests. The present Summer is to be entirely devoted to travel in the United States and Can- ada. The royal couple do not expect to be in Sweden until next April. Baron Bliss, an eccentric old British | yachtsman, who used to run his bat- tered craft, the Sea King, into New York waters, died some 10 years ago and left the best part of his portion for the benefit of sporting events | about Belize, the harbor of British Honduras. These provisions of his Awill are now being carried out by his executors, the royal governor of the province, the colonial secretary and | the attorney general. A golf course | was opened with formal ceremonies during May. As the world of sport is becoming as congested as all the rest | of the inhabited globe. there were many golfers from the Bahamas, the | Bermudas and nearby English posses- | sions, all trylng out the Bliss course | at Belize. Baron Bliss derived his | title, not from the peerage, but from | the late King of Portugal, to whom | he had rendered good service on the east coast of Africa. He had an inor- dinate faith in the future of B Honduras, and especially its shipping. For this purpose a goodly part of*his | fortune was expended. according to | his wishes, on the erection of an obelisk more than 80 feet high and under which is his tomb. This serves the dual purpose of mausoleum and lighthouse, and its great golden disc, | 43 | original | pily. to hi | hospitahle jand public | poweringly the most popul I has wi SOCIETY.

Its totzl area Is less than that of Wales. It boasts less than 50,000 in- habitants, of whom less than 2 of the Caucastan race. But that it has possibilities 1s universally ad- mitted. Admiral James Harrison Oliver, who was so well known and liked in Wash- ington when he served in the Navy Department, his last duty being from 1918 until his retirement in 1921, is now, with Mrs. Oliver, enjoying the beauty and old-world charm of Shir ley, that lovely estate of the Carters on ‘the James. which figures in Vir ginia social annals from their very first chapters. Shirley is now the only one of those historic estates on the James which .remains the property of its| proprietors. Mrs. Oliver is | the last heir, and she was Marion Car- ter, daughter of the last male descend ant of the eminent family known as the “King Carters.” the late Robert Randolph Carter, U. 8. N. It was at Shirley that “Light Horse Harry” Lee came a-wooing Anhe Carter, and their wedding, celebrated on the rolling lawn by the river, was one of the most brilliant events of its history. | Gen. “Light Horse Harry” Lee had been married previously, not very hap- cousin. Matilda Lee The second wife was the mother of Gen. | Robert . Lee, and Mrs. Oliver is a hostess 1o the historfans s-who journey to Shirley | to pay homage to the mother of the great Confederate leader. Mrs. Oliver | and her sister, Miss Alice Carter, have Shirley, but the lat- ter has sold her interest in the his- toric estate to Admiral and Mrs Oliver, though she continues to make | her home there. Admiral and Mrs. Oliver were internationally known at the Virgin Islands, where they dis- pensed, during the admiral’s term as commandant there, the renowned hos. pitality of Virginia on the James. Admiral Oliver is a descendant of the Harrisons of Grafton-on-the-James. William Clothier and Mrs Herbert L. Clark, who give the most energetic and continual attention to | the events staged at the Wynnewood Country Club, insisted on the mem bers giving full attention to the dog and pony show given each vear by the funors In their families. The con sequence was that this season a larger and more enthusiastic audience turned out for this combined canine and equine exhibition, junior games and gymkhana, and the sters who assumed the financ sponsil The riding was cons and fome tots v ged their ponies with mast { . while the older riders won blue ribbons. money prizes and cups and | many other encouraging tokens of pa ternal interest. Dr. Thomas G.

There is no question but that Mr. Work's book will be a best seller, for not the least village of this country but boasts its coterie of auc- tion bridge experts, and few of these fail to appear when games are held in the larger cities. Bridge enthusi- asts hail it as being at last an authori- ive statement of the laws of the game and from which there is no appeal, if the contestant wishes to be in good standing, and though there will be heartburnings and ill feeling for a time, all these will smooth out for the best interests of the plavers and for the repu plaved in Uncle Mrs. years Rockefeller McCormick some ago presented to the Cook County commissioners an extensive acreage along the Desplaines River as the beginning of a zoological gar- den. The rudimenta of such an in- stitution began at once, and gradually the tract of less than 60 acres has been increased by 3 ited citizens until 300 acres are counted in this municipal property. A board of managers has vecently ' been appointed, with Mr. John T. McCutcheon as the presi dent and Mrs. McCormick as the zeneral manager. This lady being both practical and experienced, has taken the shortest route to success and has engaged the famous circus man, Hagensack. whose wonderful park near Hamburg i without ques: tion the finest and most entertalning 00 in the world. Very shortly Chi- cago anticipates having a zoo with- out replica in this country and eq to the Hamburg institution, which a mittedly has contributed a large share toward making that second German city one of the most popular seaports of the world. No one who has passed a_few days in this splendid modern city has failed to watch a big Ham- burg-American’ liner come to port with animals Intended for zoos the world over. Hugensack's shelters these until they are ready for ship- ment to permanent destinations and meantime trains and exhibits them. All this besides owning one of the most complete collections of wild ani- mals, or serpents. birds and other denizens of a zoo which the world con- tains.

Annapolis, however, worries along with a transformed mansion and & few teahouses but this because it is quite easy to make the trip either from Washington or Baltimore in a day and roomy hotels are mot required. It would be interesting to know the exact number of visitors to the Naval academy as compared to those who visit West Point, since the latter claims at least five times as many. As members of the national armed defense by land and by sea, both are equal in importance but with the opening of the Thayer is patent to all that West Point re quires more and larger hotels to ac- commodate its guests than does An- napolis.
