Government Cordially Welcomed Commissioner and Mrs. Reichelderfer Are Classed Among Prominent Resi- dents of Wide Experience in Affairs. The lately chosen associate Commis- sioner of the District, Dr. Luther H. Reichelderfer, and Mrs. Reichelderfer are classed among the quiet, cultured residents who are affiliated with many useful movements. Dr. Reichelderfer is a native of Ohio, but came to the Capital when he had just entered his teens and has since been a continual resident. His wife is a native Washingtonian and has passed all her years here, except when she was indulging an enthusiastic love of travel, a taste which the Commissioner shares. Both believed themselves entirely fa- miliar with the Capital and its major when Dr. Reichel derfer act! sents and how ardently each individual unit believes in its own worthy mission and presents urgent reasons why the Commissioner should address the meet- ing and that Mrs. Reichelderfer should be of those present. Actually, about 30 invitations come a week, but much as| the genial surgeon would like to honor | all, four speeches prepared for seven | days and with two left over is more than he can accomplish, and Mrs. Reichelderfer, who is rather retiring, would simply have to give her life to of mwgee‘ Mass, ‘astleman is a graduate of Han- nah More Academy, Relsterstown, Mg.. and after attending Goucher College for ;.;.o y:‘ll:nr:celved the degree of bache- of U%:"élw George Washington .

This is one of the minor problems of the new duties, but since proverbially a physician is a diplomat of high rank and his wife trained to tact and graclousness, they are mw{“fi‘ the situation gracefully and successfully. Mrs. Reichelderfer is a daughter of Mr. and Mrs, James ulay, the for- mer a native of Scotland, who came to Washington in his youth and engaged successfully in business. She was gradu- ated from the Central High School, but did not enter college. She preferred to study in her own way and this was through foreign, travel, for which she prepared diligently, studying the lan- guage and literature of each country and zealously covering all points recom- mended for those seeking a higher cul- ture. One special incident influenced her when in her early teens. The Ma- caulay family home was on Iowa Circle in the immediate neighborhood of the Korean legation. The queer little hats which the Korean diplomats wore and their gentle, kindly attitude toward the nearby citizen impressed her and she resolved that when she had finished her high school course she would visit that strange and interesting land. But when she and Dr. Reichelderfer did this some three years ago, Korea had ceased to be a free nation, and she found the people quiet and very sad. Remembering the exquisite furnishings of the old Korean | legation, she purchased many handsome 15 the son of Mr. and Mrs. John J.

Another home of Mr, and Mrs. James Macaulay and their daughter Mary was on P street, close to the Chinese lega- tion in the colorful hospitable days of Wu Ting Fang, which then was on Eighteenth and Q streets. Dr. and Mrs. Reichelderfer were married in the Macaulay home, then permanently located on Connecticut avenue just off S street, and this was in 1903 The Commissioner is a well known surgeon and belongs to all the scientific and professional clubs which tract the medico. Mrs. Reichelderfer acknowledges only one, the Twentieth Century Club. She is an omnivorois reader and frequently attends the :it- erary lectures and reviews of books which make so pleasant a_diversion in the Washington Winter. But primarily she is a home keeper and her interests are centered there. For the past three years the Commis- sioner and his wife have resided in a spacious apartment on Crescent place which they purchased and remodeled to suit their ideals and have furnished with exquisite taste. Mrs. Reichclderfer has a predilection for French paintings and mural decorations. A cha.ming landscape by Lancret is above the man- tel, and the ornate fashion of that era is apparent. One lovely Circassian wal- | nut cabinet is filled with historic bits of | bisque—the young Napoleon, a court | scene of the Grande Monarque, a bou- | doir where the mysteries ¢f the toilet are disclosed by one-inch ligures dain- tily colored and many other rare bits, INDOW SHADES —made to order at low factory prices.
