Roosevelt, shown at the American Association . of University Women clubhouse, attracted considerable interest yesterday at the annual exhibition and supper party, spon- sored by the Applied Arts Com- mittee of the Washington branch. ‘The picture, sketched by Anna Marie Ketchum, was done without Mrs. Roosevelt's knowledge, the artist having thken advantage of several functions at which the President’'s wife was the guest speaker, to make her drawings. Another portrait of particular in- terest was one by Mrs. Louis A. Bauer, who had sketched her maid wearing a red bandana handker- chief and spectacles. Mrs. Bauer only started art work recently. A plaster head, “Lenore,” inspired D. C, TUESDAY, was shown by Mrs. Harold Fowler. Other exhibits included knitted lace, by Mrs. I. D. Clarke; copper work, by Mrs. W. C. Harlee; stencils, by Mrs. Remington Kellogg; pot- tery, by Dr. Edith Allen, and flower arrangements, by Miss Irma Brown. Speakers on Program Following Supper. Speakers on the program, follow- ing the supper, included Miss Bess Edwards, assistant director of home demonstration work in Texas; Miss Bernice Clayton, home improvement specialist; Miss Maysie Malone, home demonstration agent of Brown County, Tex., and Mrs. Louise Hall- Hollis of the Cabin Crafters.
