the most famous men of the day; and
the viands served by the famous White

apparently quite oblivious to their on
slaughts and continues calmly with
his meal as though there We're no such
insects in Washington. So, the devot-
ed followers Of the administration who
heroically bare their cheeks and necks
and hands to the singing attack of the
small varmints dare not make any re-
marks about them. 1t would be quite
impolite if not actual treason to init
mate that they are not perfectly happy
while dining with the president, so they
eat and smile and suffer in silence, and
rush nome DIT the earliest opportunity
to battle their bites in ammonia and
other antidotal drugs.
Have you noticed any mosquitoes at
the west terrace dinners?" one of the
White House policemen was asked.
Not one he replied with a wink.
Where are you stationed during the
meals?"
Just within a few feet of the table"
he said. But you see l am so all
fired busy keeping the mosquitoes off
myself that / don't get a seconds time
to look at the table. Gee, but they
are fierce up here at night"
