Beth Blaine Lowam.wvw. the kbeloved American poet, would have been proud last night if he could have looked in on the dinner at the White House given by the President and Mrs. Roosevelt for those who played leading roles in the President’s campaign. One of his most fascinating poems, that of Hiawatha, the magnificent Indian character whom he brought to life, was prominently depicted in the major table decorations. Quotations from this beautiful Indian legend, written by one of this country’s joremost composers, outline the hull of the graceful silver ship which is used as a centerpiece at less formal dinners at the President’s House. ‘This ship was not added to the household furnishings in this admin- istration, and yet how fitting its use is now, with President Roosevelt such s lover of the water and all seagoing craft. The history of this beautifully inscribed miniature ship dates back to the McKinley regime. We were told at the Ezecutive Man- sion last night that Mrs. McKinley, wife of the twenty-fifth President of the United States, purchased this charming table ornament at the Buffalo Ezposition. On one side of this silver ship is found the inscription, “All alone went Hiawatha through the clear, transparent water,” and on the opposite hull, “Swift or slow at will he glided, veered to right or left at pleasure,” another of the delightful lines from the poem “Hiawatha.” Last night tiny gardenias festooned the silver sails of this ship- like tablepiece and on the deck spreading sprays of pink snmapdragons and pussy willow with feathery ferns were artistically arranged, the flowers dropping over the deck rails. Corresponding in shape with the “deck” flowers were the low mounds of blossoms placed at intervals around the horseshoe-shaped table. Adding to the beauty of the table were the graceful silver compotes, holding luscious-looking purple grapes and shiny red apples, and the silver candelabra bearing tall white candles. ‘The other arrangements for the dinner were similar to those of state fetes at the mansion. The Marine Band Orchestra played as the guests entered the state suite and the White House aides, in full dress regalia, were on hand to escort the guests to their places’in the east room, where they formed in line to be recelved by President and Mrs. Roosevelt, was Lieut. George Kernan, U. 8. N,, and she has two children.
