ciated with Mr.. Reid in mural deco
rative work, who has recently return
ed to Topeka from Des Moines, where
| he assisted Mr.. Guernsey, the Well
known mural painter in the new dec
| orations in the Iowa capitol Mr.
Flennixen has carried out an e1:S
| ceptionally pretty idea in the drawing
rooms at the Governors House. the
walls of which are done in pale
green tint with a broad freize in a
! conventional iris design, and this
room has a Wilton carpet of solid,
moss green and hangings of old rose
The library walls have been done
over in friar gray with an appropriate
freze and there is a new frieze In the
dining room, a landscape design IN
blue and brown, but the walls nave
been otherwise left unchanged in this
room which is rather pity as they
are covered with an impossible metal
lie material a sort of imitation brass.
Mrs Stubs is not entirely satisfied
with the dining room (and no Won
der after her beautiful house at WIND
Hill, Lawrence.) but compromises are
always necessary and the appropria-
ton for the improvements was not
sufficient to allow her taste full sway.
Does Mrs. Stubs remind you a bit
of Mrs. Grover Cleveland in her type
of beauty and womanlineSS? She was
looking particularly pretty last night |
in blue chiffon gown, and Miss Le- |
nora Stubs, who assisted made ii |
y
by wearing a last winters gown, the |
beautiful white broadcloth princess in |
which she was so greatly admired last |
season. Miss Stubs is a living tes- |
timonal of the good judgment and |
good taste of her parents. She is a |
charming girl her mother. over and |
over as far as looks go, womanly and
dignif1ed and sensible beyond her
years The governor wore a frock |
coat instead of evening dress, although
Kansas is now so sophisticated that a
man in public life may safely wear
evening dress. But he looked distin-
guished. as always, and did the hon
ors with the cordial hospitable, simple
and sincere manner which SO large
ly explains his popularity.
