could not legally dispense with the often awful cognomens with which we were equipped for life by "our sponsors in baptism" but no doubt now many persons will be quick to follow the example set them by the president and his daughter. Surely "Eleanor" is much more euphonious than plain Ellen, and Woodrow more distinctive than just Thomas"
 After the Honeymoon.
 The latest gossip has it that Sec retary and Mrs. McAdoo will shortly return to this city and take up their abode in a handsome suburban homo in the rural community north of the city known as Chevy Chase. It lies just beyond the District line in the state of Maryland, and boasts of number of charming residences. It is a stylish subdivision and is within delightful autoing distance from the national capital; it is blessed not on- ly with fashionable residents but has fresh breezes and is only few minutes walk from the virgin Mary land woods. Best of all car line connects it not only with the city Uul WILL lilC pOpuldl 1CoOA known as Chevy Chase Lake" where there is large dancing pavilion in which the marine band holds forth regularly each week at the evening dansantes. MT. McAdoo's skill as tangoer is town talk as well as his young wifes fondness for tripping the light fantastic" so no doubt be- fore the summer is over the habituees of the lakes dancing pavilion will have the unique pleasure of having a member of the cabinet and presi- dents daughter among their num- Der.
 Old Glory's Stripes and Stars. ] Not long ago the governor of New Jersey astonished the government of- ficials in Washington by inquiring: (Which stripe in the flag represents the state of New Jersey?" Never be- fore has it been attempted to figure out which particular stripe indicated the individual original thirteen states. The only plan evolved thus far to settle the mooted question is to give the first state which ratified the con- stitution the first red stripe, the next Ehe first white one and so on down to Rhode Island the last of the thir- teen which ratified the constitution in the year 1790. An dold gentleman named Whipple resident of Ger mantown nesr Philadelphia has anO ther new idea about the flag and he offers what many believe is really valuable suggestion, on account of the. difficulty of fitting in the stars

(ALICE LEE MOQUE.)


 No one can say we have not had strenuous week this week. We started off with the circus, and have had the Horse Show, the Needlework Guild of America, The Colonial Danes, The White House wedding and the Shrin- CTS, in their gorgeous satin trousers, and wound up the weekend most fit tingly with the picturesque Suffrage Pageant. From first to last the wealth CT was ideal, so one again the Capi- tai City proved its claim of being the most desirable convention city in the country.
 The White House Announcement
 Cards.
 The Wilson -McAdoo nuptials came off exactly as scheduled only there were few more invited guests than was at first planned. Every detail of the ceremony was carefully guarded and even the guests asked to attend were pledged to secrecy about the event, until the "happy pair were safe ly aboar dtheir special car in Mary land" and actually off for Cornish, New Hampshire on their honeymoon. The announcement cards were sent off with such dispatch that within an hour after the ceremony they were in the possession of those who were thus remembered. They were rather plain, all white, and the outer en- velop had the words "The White House. on the left hand corner. The announcement within bore the exec ! utive crest embossed at the top. In almost every one of the former re- gimes the words Executive Mansion" have been used, as it is the correct official designation of the home of the president of the United States, but the Wilson's have adopted the less formal and universally popular ex- pression "The White House."
 Father and Daughter Both Drop
 Their Christen Names.
 Some surprise was caused when it was discovered that the brides name is really "Ellen" and nto Eleanor, as is shown by her birth certificate and baptismal record in her native city Middletown, Conn. Like her distin- guished father Mrs. McAdoo has not been deterred by the legal records from changing her name to suit her self: Some weeks ago certain Thomas w. Wilson's article was quot ed in congress and more than one solon inquired whos the Thamos w. Wilson might be and were decidedly taken aback on learning that Thomas w., has become Woodrow Wilson president of the United States. In the old days we used to imagine that we

spartan courage. For only a few hours before she had learned that her husband, Bedill Mccormick, the well known newspaper man representing the London Times, Harper's Weekly, and Chicago Daily News, was thrown into prison in Mexico. Not by word or look did she betray her feelings to even her closest friends. It was only after all the festivities were over that her colleagues learned of her mental anguish. Fortunately her ordeal was brief for Sunday night a wire from Vera Cruz brought the welcome news that Mir. Mccormick and the, other correspondents had been released. America may we'll be proud of her brave men, and of her brave women as well.

for the many new states. He propose es that the government return to the original circular arrangement of the stars on the flag as made by Betsy Ross after the design approved by l Washington, Franklin, Jefferson and other patriots of the First Continental congress. MT. Whipple points out that 1 the present arrangement of the stars l in horizontal rows came about | through General Benjamin F. Buffers i flag factories machinemade flags and that no act of congress has ever au- thcrized it, while the circular design | with the siX-pointed stars was in use on the early emblems of the country and seen on the seal of the United States ever since the year 1782. The proposed grouping is very striking and pleasing. The stars of the thir- teen original states from a six-point- ed star in the center around which is circle formed of twenty stars. The extra ten stars being placed at regu- lar intervals on the outer side of this circle. This new distribution of the stars on our Star Spangled Ban ner" is not really new at all as MT. Whipple himself points out but sim ply return to the original design approved by Washington and others, brought up to date to accommodate the already great number of stars. It is believed that congress will read fly approve of the proposed design which returns to Old Glory almost it's original aspect.
 The Suffrage Parade and the Me.
 mOriaIs to Congress.
 Every one here remembers only too we'll what happened upon the third of March, the day before the in- auguration little more. than a yZr ago but the parade of Saturday last was very different affair. No mat ter how opposed to suffrage an on- locker might be everyone had to view with respect the marching hosts, rob- ed in pure white and carrying their garlands and gay banners in most sedate and soldierly fashion. One of the most effective features noticed was the immense float sixty feet long bearing huge portraits of Susan B. Anthony and the date 1874 on one end and that of Anna Howard Shaw and 1914 on the other In flaming let ters two feet high was the inscrip- tion: National American Woman Suffrage Association, founded in 1869 supports Bristow-Mondell resolution, drafted by Susan B. Anothony in 1874 first, last and always"
 The N. c. State Equal Suffrage League banner was carried by Miss Myrtle Bum of Wilson and Miss Georgia Sanderlin of Kinston. Mrs Mccormick, chairman of the National Congressional Committee, occupied g box at the Belasco Theatre mass meeting which preceded the parade and with her were Mrs. Antoinette Funk and Mrs. Sherman M. Booth and others of the committee.
 No one in all the vast crowds who witnessed Mrs. McCormick's earnes efforts during the formation of hel division or who watched her marcl
