we YOU didn't mind so very much yourself
Such busy, busy week this has been
! 1t have lots of gossip for YOU, and will
.oceed at once to business.
First. what do YOU think of Helen Heyls
1gagement? That was real surprise, for,

met Madame Pezet this morning, and
she was beaming because her son. Washing

tlor of Marrying Money that played here
carly in the winter, and mas had very
successful run in New York.
Mrs Marshall told me about her trip to
J ttsburgh with the Vice President the other
cav. Ii seems they reached there at 10 in
{ t1e morning and left at midnight And dur

de, to a luncheon, reception in her honor,
dinner party and to the tneater. How's

t~st of a series of trips that they are going
% take, for the Vice President is in great
demand as speaker Within the next
month or six weeks they are going to North
I arolina, Georgia, Maine, and Indiana. Id
consider that quite some penalty for great
rcss, but Mrs. Marshall says she doesn't
mind.

own on the subject. Just now the horse

chilliness. The pansies are t1ick in some of
'He parks and in others there are orderly
rows of green things that will flower later
csnnas, geraniums, or mayfap SALIVA. And
ne mountain laurel is out in the woods. I'm
eff for ride in the country this afternoon
II search of laurel and wild honeysuckle,
great punches of it. If il weren't so far Id
