PEN PORTRAITS Senora Dona BY PAULINE A. FREDERICK. “The Bolivian temperament is entire- Iy dmrrent from that of the United | Btates.” This candid observation was made re- eently by Senora Dona Crystal Abelli, young hostess of the Bolivian legation. And as Senora Abelll went on to ex- plain her statement there seemed to be an atmosphere of shine every- Wwhere. Outside, warm rays of the sun wes spilling through the trees into br splotches on the immaculate lawn and driveway. And inside the legation everything seemed sunny. t 00. The step-down living room of the intriguing English structure, with its light stucco walls and raftered ceiling, was a choice setting for color. Before the great fire- place at the opposite end of the room a huge basket of Fall flowers threw out a gay and fragrant greeting. In the bay window to the left stood a graceful table with lamps Chinese jade at either end, the background for an ex- quisite bowl of pink roses. Here and there luxurious chairs and sofas of rich hues were placed invitingly But it was Senora Abelli herself who added the final touch of radiance. She vacious and beautiful, with brown hair and blue eyes. Youth and grace are embodied in the tall, slender figure, which at our interview was becomngly attired in a_simple white frock em- broidered in brown with a small white scarf-collar, Her engaging manner of speaking suggested deep emoticnal qual- ities “In Bolivia life is lacadaisical,” Senora Abelli explained. “The high altitude in some parts of the country and the warm temperature in other parts make you feel that tomorrow will do if you don't accomplish some things today. But in the United States the atmosphere is| charged with such a wealth of activity. Even to keep up with the newspapers and periodicals is quite a task. “When I came to the United States, some months ago.” she continued, “I was determined not to be caught in this constant rush. But it seems as if one doesn’t have much to say about it, for one is carried on as by a tide. I find that a day in Washington is much too short, whereas in Bolivia 24 hours often seened too long. In the United States an idle minute seems a wasted one.” And when a statement like this comes from Senora Abelli it is on good authority, for she has known both American and Bolivian life intimately i o “I was born in Portland, Ore." said, confirming the immediate impres sion that her native city was in the United States. It was at St. Helen's Hall, in that city, also, that she re- ceived her education. How an American girl born in the northwestern corner of the United States could become interested in far- off Bolivia, was the next question Senora Abelli was called upon to answer. “There was & vorld’s fair in San Francisco in 1915, she began with a gay little laugh. ' “My father was in charge of the official participation of Oregon on that occas But .it seems that fate had a hand in tke fair, too. At any rate far-off Bolivia sent a brilliant young country- man, Senor Luis Abelli, who had just been graduated from the London Scheol of Mines, to have charge of its ex-| hibit. And Uu< young Bolivian was not long in 0 that the executive commissicner for the State of Oregen hed a lovely ghter. Whether the fair itself still held any for either after this discovery Senora Abelli. But the fact remains that little more than a vear later Senor Abelli went to Port- Jand to claim the young Oregon lass as his bride And so many of our friends termed the fair an exposition of romance,’ Senora Abelll concluded with a happy 8 * x % x For 15 years this diplomat's Amer- jcan-born wife has be a Bolivian, liv- ing with these pecple, speaking their language and learning their ways. The Spanish class makes up the cultured, refined section of the population, but | it was to the poor Indian groups who | often live in a primitive state that| Senora Abelli's sympathy turned The home of the Abellis was a great Spanish manor house, located nearly 50 miles from any post of civilization. It was at that location that Senor Abelli and his father owned a tin mine named | Aricaya. Although the home was far| from other Spanish or American settle- | ments, the owners had taken to it the | finest improvements that the United Btates and European countries had to offer. “Many visitors stopped to see us,” Senora Abelli said, “because they al- ways remarked that our home was like a little plece of the United States.” But one can imagine that another reason for the visits was that a gracious host and hostess were always extending a cordial welcome. Instead of feeling isolated and un- happy in her new surroundings—for s was often the only white woman in the locality—Senora Abelli saw an oppor- tunity to be of real service to the In- dians. She knew methods, _especially home making, and the jmparted to the Indians gently inducing them to exchange t crude ways for the more 2 nced of her native land. “The first thing I did in order to accomplish _the results 1 desired.” Senora Abelli continued, “was to learn the language. I knew that the real Key to my happiness with these people ay in possessing it.” ; And that is l‘\zxal what Senora Abelli has done. She speaks Spanish as fluently and reads it as quickly as a native * & x “I am especially glad to be in the United States at this time” she said when asked about her family, “so that my children may take advantage of the educational opportunities afforded here” é Luis Dante is 7 and Crystal El is “I sent Luis to private school upon coming to Washington.” Senora Abelli explained, “but now he is attending the new Horace Mann public school in Wesley Heights. 1 feel that in the public schools he will gain the true sn"" of American democi stal Eloisa is going for her second year to the Lady Margaret Kinder- garten i Senora Abel heory of education ges cn the principle that such should be an instrument for dent fc life.

She senses \lhc advanced methods with which edu- cators are coping with their problems that the ultimate result may be that the student grows up in a school which is a small sector of life as it is, rather | than in an artificial surrounding which | may have no relationship to his future | eer. “Perhaps the greatect motive back of my concern that my children shall | have the be:t possible training for good | citizenship, Senora Abelli declared | iy, “is that they may be fitted to to Bolivia to share the oppor- | tunities they hz\\e had with those who | are less forts “The Un'ted S'n!vs has many capable | young men upon whom it can deppnd‘ for support, but my boy is a Bolivian and his country needs every one like im,” she continued. “I am training Luis to carry on some day his father’s work for Bolivia." * x ok % { “I think of a hobby as being for one who is idle,” Senora Abelli declared good-naturedly when asked about her | avocation. “Consequently, I'm afraid | I don't have any right now.” ! In Bolivia Senora Abelli's favorite ! sport was riding horseback “It was the only way one could really get many places,” che explained. “The distances are so gical that it is im- ossible to walk, and the mountains are so steep in many parts of the country | that automobiles as yet are impracti- | cable and will be so ‘until more roads | are constructed. This will be difficult to do because the very high northern branch of the Andes, known as the Cordilleras, almcst isolate the east and the west from each other. “I never played golf,” she divulged wita a laugh. “There is only one! | course in all Bolivia, and that is at the | American Club in La Paz. I never played there because such violent ex- | | ercise at that altitude, 13,000 feet B,bo\'(w sea level, is not to be desired. ‘Most persons, however, who play golf there like the slow moving pic- | ‘ Guest of Mrs. Thomas D. Lewis, who came, from her home in Tulsa to be present tures one sees,” she said. As for painting, it is more of a real | vocation than a hobby to Senora Abelli. | “I can't dabble in painting” she pointed out. “I must take it seriously or not at all. For this reason I shail | probably not do any in Washington. as my time for it would so limited.” This talented env wife found a real challenge for her artistry in| Bolivia. There the scenery lends itself | admirably for reproduction of beautiful landscapes which is Senora_Abelli's forte. Great snow-capped Illimani, towering almost 10000 feet above | mountain-top La Paz or 22,000 feel‘ above sea level, is a joy and & delight for her to do Vegetation which blends in el its varfeties from the lushness of the | tropics to the sparceness of the Arctic | have lured her with brush and easel to lonely spots. And sunsets of bril- liant hues casting prismatic lights over the landscape, mirroring themseives in ! Titicaca, the highest of all steam- ! navigated lakes, and in_the lowlands, | waving crimson banners behind languid | palms, have furnished no end of in- | spiration for her brush. | * ok ok ox “Bolivia is rich in mineral wealth. especially tin and siiver,” Senora Abelli | declared. “The interior of Potosi, the | | silver mountain, is honeycombed in all | directions with sliver mines owned by | private individuals. he oid Spaniards had a fantastical saying about the mountain. They often declared there has been enough silver | taken from Potosi to build a bridge | from there to Madrid.” Senorza Abelli has a beautiful large baking dish made from the silver of Potosi by the Indians, as well as can- delabra and other attractive pleces. | “My Indian servant often uses the| h to make cortain baked delitac)es in,” Senora Abelli explained. “It is brought to the table with the food in it, steaming hot from the oven.” While the average citizen in the| United States may own an automobile and radio, sleep on box springs between white sheets, and eat his meals served on a linen cloth, all things which many Indians in Bolivia have never dreamed exist, the Indians still have a luxury that the average American could never beast—silver baking dishes. “The Indians take silver from the mines and are quite skillful in hammer- ing it into utensils for use in cooking their food,” Senora Abelli revealed. Another treasure which this diplo- mat's wife harbors with particular pride is the long refractory table which stands in the dining room. It is made of oak, highly carved, and at one time was the property of an order of Jesuit priests. To this historic table goes much of tha credit for her successful dinner parties, according to Senora Abelli “You see, it is only 33 inches wide,” she said. “This gives my guests a plendid opportunity for conversing across the table, as well as with the person on either side.” Senora Abelli’s favorite way of en- tertaining is at small dinners, with per- ly 12 or 14 guests. In this way she feels that every one may become ely acquainted. comes to preparing for her Senora Abelli likes to do the ing herself. s such a treat for me to go to a et in Washington after buying | from Indian squaws sitting along th pavements. My butler is an India and especially adept in American ways for I have trained him in this manner for the last 15 years,” she said. Among the Bolivian dishes that are | often found on the Abeili table are picantes, a hot spicy dish of chicken, ! rice and hot sauces, and luminta, sim- | ilar to the Mexican hot tamale except that it is made with fresh corn. * %% s “One of the biggest tasks Bolivia must undertake,” Senora Abelli de- | clared, in conclusion, “is the develop- ment of her agricultural resources. | Lack of sea coast has prevented immi- gration to the country, for immigrants | guests, marke 1 TEES Ohe true Antigues o[ omorrow!
