F. Whitehead, Mrs. Ernest I. Lewis, Mrs. E. R. Finkenstaedt, Mrs. Balthasar H. Meyer and Mrs. Richard V. Oulahan.

Tydings, Mrs. Mabel Walker Willebrandt, Mrs. Blair Thaw and Mrs. E. A. McCarteney. Tickets for the tour of the complete list may be obtained, as last season, at any of the selected gardens, and tea also will be served in several of them. An added attraction will be an exhi- bition of the works of Mabel Hunt Johnson, to be installed in the resi- dence of Mrs. Balthasar H. Mever, 3327 P street. Miss Johnson is a painter of gardens, and also specializes in home portraiture, screens, mantel murals, etc. She has never exhibited before in Wash- ington. . | HOUSEHOLD SERVANTS AND MISTRESSES CONFER Both Voice Opinions Concerning Regulation of Hours and ‘Wages.
