the first ladyship this year seem to
experience more admirably adapted to
the duties of the unofficial Office than
were any pair of their predecessors in
the race. If education makes for avail
ability and travel makes for culture,
then both Mrs. Taft and Mrs. Bryan
are of the highest availability and Gull
ture. Both are college graduates. and
both have been globe trotters for years.
They have seen the world and the full
ness thereof Moreover, both are
good old fashioned mothers and home
bodies, and neither is new woman
in the popular meaning.
Mrs. Bryan is few years older than
Mrs. Taft, who until the accession Of
Secretary Garfield was the youngest
woman in the circle of cabinet officers
wives. Perry, ILL.,, is the birthplace of
Mrs. Bryan. Her father was John
Baird, who died in 1905 at the age OF
eighty-two. Mary Elizabeth Baird
grew up in the wholesome atmosphere
of prairie town home in the middle
west. There are hundreds of towns
very much like Perry, but no other one
that has won the distinction of having
a native daughter become the wife and
comrade of man thrice nominated for
the presidency Of the United States.
On her mothers side Mrs. Bryan is of
English descent. Her father was
Scoteh-Irish. Mary Elizabeth attended
the public schools in Perry until she
was ready for what the average girl
considers the finishing school, She
was sent to the celebrated old Month
cello seminary at Godfrey, Ill. for one
year and then to the Presbyterian
academy at Jacksonville. Here she
passed two years. being graduated with
the class of 1881.
