for the care and furnishing OF the Ex-
ecutive Mansion. 81.
While Presidents wives order some
changes to keep abreast Of the times.

White House are: A "gold" piano. val
ued at $4,000; two wonderful blue
evres vases valued ats 5000 each: oil

rarity; several sets of chinaware con-
tanning each 1.55O0 pieces.

the richest materials in furnishings to
make the White House a fitting home
for the nationa's Chief Executive.
