No special innovations are expected at
the White House. Both the President and
Mrs. Wilson have several times expressed
themselves as desiring to fill the office as
others have done. So far as any one
knows, there will be the same state func-
lions as prescribed by the early Presi-
dents, with, of course, that movable
feast, the dinner to the Speaker.
All OF the other state functions. for
which the government pays, are so well
established that to curtail single one
would give offence to a great body an

Juror OF disapproval from one end Of
the country to the other. II would be
much more like the President and Mrs.
Wilson to add TO rather than curtail these
national events. But there will be cur

The bellies who were wont to find long
line of aids waiting to smile on them at
all White House receptions, official and
private. since the days OF President
Roosevelt's first administration, will, ac-
cording to rumor be sadly disappointed
There will not be a long line OF aids
Colonel Hart, the new aid from the En-
gineer Corps, who took the place left va.
cant by Colonel Spencer Cosby. will make
the introductions TO the President He is
married and has several children. Dr.
Cary Travers Grayson, u. s. ~, who is
seldom seen away from the President
will always be there. and II II Is thought
best to so arrange, Commander Jones, aid
to the Secretary Of the Navy, may also
attend. Lieutenant Charles K. Rockwell
is still attached to the White House
staff, but there is rumor that he Will
leave the polished floors, the music and
flowers and handsome women for some
parade ground in the Far West.
The long line Of White House aids Sc
lected from each branch Of the service
was established by Colonel Roosevelt
VINO lOVe0 the SlSnt OF a UNIFORM, JUST az
he did the roll of the drum and the sound
of the fife and bugle. He found only one
military man on duty when he succeeded
to the Presidency. That officer was the
superintendent Of public buildings and
grounds, invariably an officer chosen
from the Engineer Corps.
President RooseveH's first addition to
the ranks was Captain William Sheffield
Cowles, U. S. N, his brother-in-law, who
was then a bureau officer in the Navy De.
partment Colonel Thomas w. Symons
and Captain Cowles, now Rear Admiral
shared the honors at all large White
House functions with Colonel Symons, the
ranking aid Soon afterward seven other
aids. selected from the different branches
OF the service, were added to the list, and
this glistening line of uniforms graced
every reception up to the time President
Wilson entered the White House.
Aside from the absence of so many
aids, there will be few changes at the
White House. Both Mrs. Roosevelt and
Mrs. Taft studied the social situation 10
a nicely and the latter, improving on the
fine work of the former, left little to BE-
done by incoming mistresses OF the Exc
cutive Mansion.

Wives of Representatives in Congress
are hoping that one of Mrs. Wilson's
changes Will embrace greater comfort for
them at the White House receptions.
When a state reception is given the Cab
met members and their wives, as well as
all those included in the exclusive Blue
Room, or behind the line" list, enter by
the main or north front door. Diplomats,
Supreme Court members and few 9TH
ers enter through the private door on the
ground floor OF the south front, and am
pie dressing rooms are provided for them.
At Congressional receptions, Senators
and their wives may use this entrance,
according TO a change made by Mrs
Taft. The Representatives and thel
wives, at this, their very own reception
as 1t were, and at all other receptions
must take pot-luck with the long line OF
visitors who enter through the east cor
ridor on the ground floor. While no spe'
cial discomfort is suffered, and with them
are many Of the most distinguished per-
sons of the country. they yet feel. and fol
years have felt, that the House was en-
titled to some little extra attention, espe-
cially at the Congressional receptions.
The size Of the House has been given In
former administrations as a reason for
not showing Representatives the compli-
ment Of special card admitting them TO
the south front door, which a diplomat
now enjoying a promotion" in foreign
Office always mentioned as the Presi-
dents cellar door" because it was under
the reception room.

Very rapidly is the pear crop OF
Lee county orchards being har-
vested now, quantity ofcspecially
fine fruit having already been ship
ped to the eastern markets from Lee
county orchards. Shipping is be-
ing done this week, also, and most
of the crop will be moved by the
close of the week.
Last week was the busiest week
in the large orchards Of Judge II.
L. Long, near Lecsburg, who owns
two Of the finest orchards in this
section Of the state, embracing
large nunber'of both LeConte and
Kieffer pears. Judge Long shipped
only one car load last week, as the
crop is short this year. But these
pears were of especially fine size
and quality, so that the crop should
bring good returns. Ordinarily
Judge Long would ship from five to
ten carloads, if it were an average
crop year for this fruit.
There is still remaining in Judge
Longs orchards part of carload Of
excellent fruit. which he may ship
this week with the carload that is
being sent out by his son, Mr.. j.
R. Long, who also has a fine or
chard. Mr.. J. R. Long is shipping
the first large lots Of pears from his
orchard. which is young and has
some exceptionally fine and vigorous
trees. AS the two orchards are not
more than a half-mile apart on the
adjoining estates, the combing of
the products of both orchards when
needed proves a valuable expedient
in harvesting the crops
