Besides, Mrs. Vanderbilt entertained IN

has never allowed her interest TO de-
crease. She manifested this during the
week. when, accompanied by Senator
George Peabody Wetmore, she made a
tour Of the hospitals of the city, first
visiting the new naval hospital, which
he had never before visited. and then
going to the Newport hospital. One

be remembered for is the dinners that
she gives through the Kings Daughters

the city. These have been given now
for about twenty or more years, and
when speaking of them during the
week she said. with a smile: - sup

Thanksgiving dinner as long as / live"
