ne changes ana improvements now 60
Ing on In the White House are in the di-
rection Of adding to it's accommodations
for. guests and also for the maid serv
ants. The repairs are being rapidly made,
and the finished effect is almost in sight.
The hedges which inclose the garden in
small areas near the south portico have
been removed. Concrete walks are be-
Ing laid. so that there will be nothing in
future to cut off a view of the mansion
near the south porticoes. The colonial
garden remains, but has small fountain
in the center.
There will be FIVE new bedrooms and
three bathrooms when the work on what
was formerly the attic is completed. Only
two are of recent planning, as the other
rooms have been hitherto used by the
maid servants. for whom other quarters
In the extreme west end of the section
under the roof are being arranged Dor
mer windows now pierce the roof where
add1tlonal lighting and ventilation was
required and the view from them over the
garden trees to Potomac Park and the
river is quite the best of the house
1t is thought that the furniture used by
earlier occupants of the house and since
stored in the attics will be in place in the
new rooms, thus adding to their historic
interest.
Freshening processes i'm the way of new
paint are going on in the entrance hall
