shrong as to ruin gowns and tempers.
Since the Roosevelts came to the
White House a different system has
been in force, under which there is a
Judfcious division of invitations. so
that everybody who ought to be in
vited will get at least one invitation
to each reception. The capacity of the
old mansion is limited, despite the
wide-famed East room, which is s,1p-
posed to accommodate thousands.
Every function at the White House
proclaims loudly the necessity of an
executive building where the presi-
Dental Offices could be located and a
large hall be provided for official re-
ceptlons, leaving the present mansion
exclusively for the private use of the
president and his family.
The idea of a grand executive build
Ing is at present kept in the back
ground, although the insignificant ex-
ecutive offices where the president
does his work were erected as tempor-
ary quarters in expectation that con-
gress would take up the matter and
provide a proper place for executive
headquarters. There is not a day
passes that the in~adequacy Of the
White House Offices is not emphasized.
There is no more beauty about the
building than there is about the aver
age country railroad station. The
are uncomfortable, ugly and
not very healthful.
The worst feature about these tenn
porary quarters is that the president
is separated from the public by only
one or two doors, and noises In the
outer offices penetrate easily into the
room or into his W office.
The deplorable Mrs. Morris incident
could not have occurred in a building
that had been constructed for protec-
ton as well as use of the president.
She raised a row within ten feet of the
presidents room, something she could
have done in a properly construct
building.
