New»}iqgkAAppearing‘ Mrs. Royal S. Copeland Author of Book of Washington. N MAY 10, or thereabouts, a new book will make its appearance entitled, “Mrs. Copeland's Guest Book.” The author is none other than Mrs. Royal 5. Copeland, wife of Senatcr Cope- land of New York. Mrs. Copeland is very enthused about her first literary venture, for the galley proofs have received the approval of her husband, who never helped her in her enterprise, which has taken two years, other than goad- ing her on to complete the book dur- ing those times when she felt that she could not continue. The book deals with official life in ‘Washington, about which Mrs. Cope- land knows plenty, having lived here since 1922. The author has great un- derstanding of persons in all walks of life, and when asked if the book Wwas in any way malicious, Mrs. Cope- land replied that she only knew nice people and only said nice things about them; in other words, the few persons whom she dislikes she has put out of her life and neither has | them to her house nor accepts their hospitality. This is most commend- able, indeed, though at times not so easy to carry out The book is dedicated to Senator end Mrs. Copeland’s two grand- | daughters, Ruth Spalding and Vir- ginia Alice Copeland, the children of their son, Royal S. Copeland, jr., who lives in Suffern, N. Y. | Mrs. Copeland at one time was the | owner of two newspapers, and in spite of becoming an author, when asked | what she would like to do if she had | to work for her living, she replied, to ! SOCIETY. the great surprise of the assembled company, her guests at luncheon yes- terday, that she would like to be buyer for an interior decorating firm to the tune of some $50,000 a year! Mrs. Copeland’s guest book is being published by David McKay Co. in Philadelphia and it must be firmly urderstood it is not in any way a “muck-raking book.” The book tells about the persons who have signed in the Copeland guests books, which repose in all th:e o. their resi- dences—their apartment at the Shoreham in Washington, their apartment in New York City, their estate in Suffern, N. Y, and their house in Florida. The book was started in Florida two years ago when Mrs. Copeland was in the hos- pital recovering from a most serious motor accident which kept her flat on her back for many weeks. Need- less to say she was unable to use a typewriter, so the story, which takes a little over two hours to read, was written entirely in longhand. This book in all probability will be of great assistance to the wives of newly-appointed Senators and Rep- resentatives and others in official po- sition in Washington, for it gives many good pointers of what to do and what not to do, besides telling some amus- ing anecdotes of the Copelands’ guests. Mrs. Copeland, the former Frances Spalding, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Maj. May Spalding, was born in Cadillac, Mich. She is a talented | pianist and has been soloist with the Chicago Opera Co. and accompanist for the Theodore Thomas Conserva- tory of Music in Chicago.
