Fond Of long automobile rides and
golf. the President devotes two hours
in the late afternoon to refreshing
himself from days of congested en-
gagenents and conferences. In the
evening he is frequently at his office
and there always is stack of COR
respondcnce or official papers for his
examination.
The White House Is by no means the
quiet and comfortable place these days
that 1t appears, as small army OIL
paper hangers. painters and carpen-
ters are busily remodeling the interior.
The only rooms that have not been
disturbed are those occupied by the
President and his two house guests,
Secretary Tumulty and DR.. Cary T..
Grayson, U. S. N, his physician. The
big east room is being refinished and
those sections Of the White House

closed for repairs. The White House is
being renovated in preparation for the
wedding of Miss Jessie Wilson and
Francis B. Sayre, which is to take
place during the Thanksgiving season,
the last week in November. 1t is not
expected that the Wilson family will
return from Cornish, N. H., the summer
capital much before that time.
Keeping bachelor hall' is trying
ordeal for President Wilson, as he has
rarely been away from the family
circle for any extended period. No
friends have been invited to visit ana

with the company of secretary Tumulty
and DIR. Grayson. With them he goes
automobiling after the days work is
done and quite regularly they attend
the theatres where stock company plays
have been running. The Presirent
wears a linen suit to the theatre in
stead of evening dress. He has taken
a fancy to the white suits of tropical
fashion and when he appeared recent
ly in a duck suit. members of the cab
met and other official folk followed
suit.
The President Is hopeful that Con-
gress will have passed both the tarif
and the currency bills by October l.
and that he may spend two weeks OF

his family at Cornish. N. H.
