Reader DEMOCRATIC FETE | HELD BY WOMEN Mrs. Roosevelt Guest of Honor at Luncheon for Club House Fund. At $10 a plate, Democratic women and a scattering of male guests— some 280 in all—simultaneously ate & delicious luncheon and a satisfactory hole in the Woman’s National Demo- cratic Club house deficit at the club's annual Spring fete, held yesterday at Woodlawn, the home of the Sec- retary of War and Mrs. Harry Wood= 1| ring. Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt was the guest of honor and a number of prom- inent Democratic women, including the newly-appointed Minister to Nor- way, Mrs. J. Borden Harriman, pro- vided an impressive official air to the occasion. The party needed only the pres- ence of the Democratic donkey, Queenie, to add the final partisan touch. And Queenie, after an early arrival, set the pace for the after- noon. The famous donkey, which after an election bet last Fall rapidly changed hands from Mississippi to South Carolina and eventually to Postmaster General Farley, appeared with some difficulty in an Army truck and subsequently became the chief attraction. Mrs. Roosevelt, alighting on the grassy sward at Woodlawn, had enly Come to George’s for NATIONALLY FAMOUS APPLIANCES Now on display at all Stores Model Tlustrated $217.50 A Store Near Your Home 814-816 F St. N.W. 3107-3109 M St. N.W. 2015 14th St. N.W. 1111 H St. N.E.

From that time on—$10 or no $10—the atmosphere was decidedly in- formal. Few speeches had been plan- ned, but at the barest threat of an address, Queenie from the sidelines, raised & vocal protest. Tables for the luncheon were ar- ranged in a horseshoe figure under the spreading oaks. The president of the club, Mrs. Wilbur W. Hub- bard, introduced Mrs. Roosevelt and Secretary Woodring, who spoke brief- ly, in laudatory terms, of the club’s support of the national party. As hosts, the Woodrings created a decidedly homelike atmosphere. The Secretary had detailed a small army to direct his guests and to care for their cars. His attire was informal, however, including a dark blue linen suit, worn with a striking pair of ten- nis shoes of a shade of royal blue to match his tie. Though seated at the speaker’s table, he left at intervals to romp with his small son and daugh- ter and to bring them over to speak to Mrs. Roosevelt and others.
