pertinent a short comment on just who
Mrs Longworth's girlhood friends
were.
Miss Alice Roosevelt at the time OF
her fathers succession to the presl-
dency was just seventeen. She had
lived some seven of those years in
Washington, first as a small child, when
her father was civil service commits
sioner, later as clever schoolgirl
when he was Secretary of the Navy
Her schoolgirl friendships included the
daughters of leading citizens OF the
District of that time. Miss Lenore
Cobb, daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Henry
Ives Cobb, now of New York; Miss Ly-
dia Loring. the Misses McCauley. Miss
Anita Poor, Miss Alice Ward and Miss
Alice Warder made up the first White
House circle of intimate friends of the
Presidents young daughter. Later the
Countess Marguerite Cassini. daughter
of the Russian ambassador, became the
closest of Miss Roosevelt's girl friends
and still later Miss Josephine Board

by her reported contemporaries.
