Loveliness Personified. “Loveliness Personified!” was the thought in everyone’s mind, as Mrs. Wilson passed regally into the dining room. Tall and stately of carriage, the president’s wife was exquisitely | gowned in a creation of white Lucile | tulle, girdled with opalescent sequins | and embroidered in silver. The skirt | was fashioned of three flounces of | the white tulle over a white foundr; the shimmering girdle extended a little | above the waistline and a little be-| roduce the effect | The bodice was of | tion, while foundation, while low, scalloped to of rose petals. white tufie and the tiny sleeves of tulle were embroidered with narrow rows of sequins. Over her shoulders, Mrs, Wilson wore a filmy chiffon drape. rs. Wilson was wearing a corsage bouquet of pink roses sent by Pine Ridge Indians, through Don H. Foster, as a token of appreciation of Mrs. Wilson’s descent from the Indian Princess Pocohontas, when she entered the dining room, hut as she took her place at the table, her eyes lit on a beautiful corsage of her favorite flower, orchids, laid at her plate. She glanced lovingly at the orchids and when she left the dining room to go to the Auditorium, she added the orchids to the boquet of roses she was already wearing. Eats But Little. Mrs. Wilson ate but little, toying | daintily with her food, and talking in an animated manner to John Lee Webster, who sat at her right, and Gurdon W. Wattles, who sat at her left, She laughed frequently, her smile exhibiting a row of perfect teeth, Diamonds were the only jewels worn by the president's wife. Mrs. Wilson wore a diamond bar pin, a diamond bracelet, on the right arm, and a tiny wrist watch, studded with dianfnds, on a narrow black band on the left wrist; while a large diamond ring was worn on the engagement | | guests rising and ap- | TH “CLOSE-UP”—Snap shot of president’s wife, caught as the automobile in which she rode with her husband turned a corner. Mrs. Wilson. Mr. G. W. Wattles is seated in front of finger. Once or twice she toyed with a dainty little, lace fan. Mrs. Wilson’s coiffure was simple, the hair being done in a French roll, the prevailing style, slightly drooped over the forehead. Wnen the party ieft for the Audito-ium, Mrs. Wil son’s wrap of the day, a seal coat, banded with marten fur and lined with her favorite shade of orchid, was worn. The balcony of the dining room was filled with a few who, were able to get admission cards that carried them past the secret service men on duty at the doors. President Eats Everything. It was noted by the observant that the president had a splendid oppetite. He consumed everything that was set before him with neatness and dispatch and-in a manner complimentary to the chef. Between courses he ate rolls. With it all he kept up a lively con- versation with those seated near him. The dinner was concluded at five minutes before 8 o'clock and Mrs. Webster president President Wilson, who spoke briefly. “While I have always admired Ne- braska,” he said, “you have loved her and can interpret her better than I. “It has been a genuine pleasure to me to visit Omaha and I have been gratified by your hospitality and wel- come. “I used to be a provincial easterner, but I came west when I was a young man and knew more than I do now— came with a good deal of condescen- sion. On that trip I didn’t meet a man who didn’t know more than I did. | West Has the Brains. | “You are men here with planning minds, and the planning mind is vin- dicated in this part of the country. “The whole day here is one to be remembered because it has been full of interest and pleasure.” . The guests remained seated until | the president and his party had left the room. They went to their suite and appeared in ten minutes. The lobby and the streets in front of the hotel were jammed with peo- ple who cheered as the president and Mrs. Wilson came through the lobby, entered their automobile in front of the main entrance and drove away to the Auditorium.
