teei about funny animals that be
killed In the jungles and II he'd given
his children any of these little ami.
mails. that he'd find out which ones
were true and which ones were not.
You know Uncle Chris says they
used to tease President Roosevelt Q
lot about his yarns of all the queer
animals that he discovered over
there, and the tales he told about
how they lived and everything, but
that they really were true and that
the museum Is full Of animals and
birds that he brought back with him.
| / wonder II Teddy Roosevelt, IT.,
Is anything like his father. He
doesn't look anything like him, but I
think he must be very jolly and en-
PERTAINING. i was watching him out
at Chevy Chase the other night
He was In a dutch treat" dinner
party with Mr.. and Mrs. Warren
Delano Robbins. and Louisa Hoar.
and Mr.. Robert Woods Bliss, and
others. and I think that Mrs. Rooss-
welt was along. She comes down
every now and then from Oyster Bay.
and spends the weekend with Mr..
Roosevelt. And then IN the fall they
are going to have a house here.
Chevy Chase Has
Big Summer Crowd.
EN- there were a few new people out
at Chevy last Saturday evening. and
guess they must have been the
summer priveleges." You know they
are not 30 strict in summer time about
letting anyone but members come,
and 1t is really awfully nice because
there are ever so many new people in
town, that would like to Join Chevy
Chase and just can't get in. on &C
count Of the long waiting list.
Uncle Chris says they surely do
need some more nice clubs in this
town. and that II il surely a blessing
that the Congressional people are
going to have a Country Club Of their
own, because there are Just 10 many
new Congressman and Senators COM
ing in all the time, and they can't got
into the other clubs.
It IL going to be a huge place with
golf course and tennis courts and .
swimming pool, and they are even
going to have cottages so they can 90
out and stay during the hot weather.
asked Uncle Chris II they were
going to have the Republican cottages
on one side and the Democrats on the
other, and II he supposed they'd let
them chew tobacco out there. cause
some of them do you know.
You know EN- don't think its fair.
just because poor old Mr.. volstead.
the Congressman from Minnesota, u
the one that put prohibition over. they
don't want him in the club, At least
that's what the papers say. but don't
believe 1t.
| / suppose they think he'd prowl
around and peep into their lockers or
come up and smell their drinks to see
II they were spiked.
What I don't understand II. how
did the Prohibition bill get passed II
most Of these Congressman didn't
vote for it7 WE'LL then! they must
be for II, Just as much as Mr.. Volstead
is, If they voted for it7
And / guess Congressman Volstead
likes a drink occasionally Just as
much as they do.
EN-, changing the subject. do you
know whether you use your feet or
not when you fly? I'm thinking about
that poor pigeon again with his feet
all tangled up in thread!
Flying In Dreams
Difficult Art.
I've been trying to think whether
or not use mine when fly. and I
can't remember. OF course, EN-.
don't expect you to believe that I can
really fly, but I mean In my dreams!
| Because I'm always dreaming Of fly
ing, but p don't seem to remember
very clearly about it. think It's be.
cause I nearly always have on such
long flowing robes that don't know
what my feet are doing.
i But I know that sometimes can't
do nearly 30 well as others, and that's
usually when Monty" or somebody
like that, il looking At me. and I'm
trying to show of.
Amt dreams funny7 What do you
suppose makes mo dream It 30 oftsn7
Oh, I wonder II ever win ny, even
in an acceptance! guess I viii after
they get 30 common that It won't Be
considered anything unusual ut all ia
go up in one.
Mr.. Cremer, the son Of the Dutch
minister, was here the other day and
took just punches Of ladies UP in his
machine. He flew down from New
York and had Mr.. Christian Hemmick
with him. And they took a lot Of the
woman's National Foundation ladies
up, and then one afternoon he took
Miss Ethel Barrymore, who was play
ing at Keitfss last week.
She has gotten so thin and Is terri
bly, good looking, EN-, and fixes her
hair in the most peculiar way, with
tiny little tight puffs all over the
back-and Mrs. Cromwell Brooks gave
her a party last Saturday night. OF
course Mrs. Brooks giving her party
hasn't anything to do with how she
fixes her hair, but I'm sleepy, and "a
/ think I'll go to bed.
I'll bet dream about trying to ny
with my feet all tangled UP.
Goodnight, EN-, dearest.
