AND THE WOMEN ALL CRIED:
"Oh! What Little Angel Baby Ruth 10, to b
sure, and How LOvely!"

"Oh! What . Little Angel Baby Ruth IL, to b
Sure, and How Lovely!"
Baby Ruth was given her first public airing
in Washington this morning.
| For ten minutes the first child in the land
cooed aud cried, tumbled and gamboled,
pirouetted and danced and ran about over the
asphalt. pavement Of the north court Of the
White House.
Shortly before II o'clock this morning the
nurse in her smart cap appeared at the lower
door opening upon the court with bundle
OF something white in her strong
arms. The bundle assumed animation
as it was deposited on the ground.
and Baby Ruth, from the top OF her little brown
head to the toes of her tiny shoes clad in white.
appeared. and at once proceeded to enjoy her
self at her first outing to the full extent of her
limited physical powers.
Once upon her little feet the idol Of the
White House essayed n sharp sprint over the
court, promptly caught her wee toe in the hem
OF her long wrap and sprawled full length upon
the walk.
Would she laugh or cry?
The nurse restored the precious bit Of anat-
omy to its proper equilibrium, and as Baby
Ruth's rosy face, framed in its white lace cap,
was turned toward the spectators, who quickly
crowded to the railing above, they saw that it
was wreathed in smiles.
''Little angelr' cried a matronly looking
woman whose appearance indicated familiarity
with maternal affairs. Il knew she would not
cry"
A crowd of visitors quickly gathered and
watched little Ruth and her nurse play.
little girl whose face had been pressed
against the iron railing, and who, with eyes rs
big as saucers, was watching the little white
figure below, looked up into her mothers face
and said:
"Baby Ruth can't play with other little girls,
can She mamma?''
mo, darling" answered the mother, ''she is
too precious"
The little tot thought for a moment and
then as she turned away from the railing cling
ing to her mothers skirt she lisped: I'm
glad / m not the Presidents baby"
The cool air made little Ruth's face as red as
n rose, and after she had been out sufficiently
long to have a bit of exercise the nurse caught
he: up. There was a struggle, cry OF remon-
strance, n kick and a wave OF tiny arms. and
Baby Ruth's face peering over the nurses
shoulder disappeared in the White House.

ANACOSTIA,

Rev. DR.. James McLaren was accorded a
reception last night at the Methodist Episcopal
Church in honor of his reappointment to that
pulpit. The church was thronged with the
admirers of the divine. Everybody spoke
in complimentary terms of the pastor
and applauded the decision Of the con-
ference. The church was richly deco
rated with choice flowers, chiefly from the
conservatories Of Deacon II. S. Linger. In the
center of the room was pyramid OF white and
pink La France roses and a shield of violets
with the word McLaren wrought in white car
nations. The pulpit was clothed in jonquils
and hyacinths. Around the altar railing stood a
hedge OF palms and ferns. The exercises were
opened with the singing Of a religious air by
the Epworth League Choral Club, DIT. E. H.
Grant offered prayer and a congratulatory ad-
dress WAS delivered by Deacon Linger. The
pastor responded and spoke feelingly of his
long and, perhaps, fruitful service in Ana
costa. Miss Gertie Drummond read a religio-
comic romance and Miss Corie v. Etzler sang
old Love Songs in a very agreeable manner.
Mrs. E. l.. Gator gave dialect reading and
Miss florie May Etzler gave a recitation. Cake,
ices and CONNECTIONS were served.
Arrangements are being made in Methodist
circies to hold grand farewell service in the
old church building on the Sabbath prior to
removal to the new structure DISTINGUISHED
prelates from local churches and from the sur
rounding districts will be invited Local m ST.
cal talent is being enlisted, and it is probable
that II Will be the mOst impressive religious
service ever held in Anacostia.
