L4 By the Way— Beth Blaine SO MUCH has been written about the beautiful yacht, the Alder, and its delightful owner, Mrs. William Boyce Thompson, yet no paeans of | praise could be high enough for tre charm and delightful hospitality ot Mrs. Thompson and her lovely daughter, Margaret. How we would love to go to Norway®while the Biddles are there, especially with Tony as our American Minister at Olso. Both he and Margaret have that wonderful faculty, whether you are 8 or 80, of making you feel that all evening they have been waiting just for you to arrive! It is a wonclerful gift and creates such a glow of good feel- ing that I am sure they have won all of the Norweigians’ hearts by their kindness. They are both so sincere in their under- standing and ap- preciation of ~ the fine old customs and traditions of Norway and so eager to live in accordance with them. The Alder lying at anchor off Hains Point is so MR. AND MRS. BIDDLE. | graceful and enor- | mous it looks like an ocean going liner, but the moment one steps on board they realize that it is a home, with all tne luxurious comforts of one, plus the | glorious freedom and privacy of one’s own yacht, which is a kingdom in | itself. Mrs. Thompson is undecided as to her Summer plans, but whatever they are they will definitely include living on the Alder. From the lovely | flower filled drawing room, with its open fireplace, to the large deck where | we all reclined in the most comfortable chairs, every detail of surroundings and service was in perfect harmony. Margaret and Tony are going to be in Philadelphia for the convention with Gov. and Mrs. George Earle who are starting off the gay and exciting week with a buffet supper for them. Huberta Earle visited the Biddles last Summer in Norway, and her glowing accounts were wonderful to hear- Among the guests this particular evening was Martha Blair who is going on the North Cape cruise this Summer and we all envied her, especially | when she and Margaret were discussing what to wear in Oslo in August and the principal item of the wardrobe was a fur coat! o . "‘IISS RAMONA LeFEVRE, much to the delight of her many q friends, is staying on with the Sumner Welles for a week longer. Ramona is greatly loved and well-known here, where she lived for many years when her brother, the brilliant Joseph LeFevre, who is now in the cabinet in Panama, was in charge of the Penamancan legation. We are all hoping that some day he will be returned to Washington and that Ramona will come with him. A APT. AND MRS. PAUL BASTEDO gave a delightful dinner the other evening at their lovely house on Whitehaven street. The garden is beautiful with reflected lighting and adjoins the garden of the British | Embassy. As a matter of fact it has the prettiest view of the British | Embassy, an angle one does not get from Massachusetts avenue. Capt. Bastedo is the Naval Aide at the White House and with his winning smile he is very popular. Mrs. Bastedo is so pretty with her soft, white curls; we all agreed she is even lovelier now than when, as a girl, she had a beautiful portrait done which hangs in the dining room. The house is in exquisite taste and alter dinner we all sat out on the | cool terrace or wandered about the garden.
