them the reason for our failure to con-
form to what seems to have been custom
ary in this matter.e Believing that the
issue should be met frankly In the be-
ginning told them, when we sat down
Ito the table, that Mrs. Bryan and had
been teetotalers from our youth, as were
our parents before us, and had never
served liquor at our table; that when the
president was kind enough to tender me
the portfolio of state | asked him whetner
our failure to serve wine would be any
enabarra ssment to the administration, and
that he left the matter 10 our ulscre-
tion. suggested that | thought 1t un-
fair to assume that those coming TO us
abroad would judge us harshiy or
be unwilling to tolerate the maintenance
Of a traditional custom. and expressed
the hope that our friendship would be
made so apparent to them and our hos
pitality so cordial than they would over
look this weaknessiin us, II they regarded
IL as a weakness My remarks were ap-
plauded by the company. and we never
spent more enjoyable evening.
