Inevitably enc must associate Old
Roscmont with Mt. Vernon, for was
at Rosemont that the idea of preserv-
ing for the nation the home of its not
and noblest president was first cor
ceiyed and within It's walls were form
ulated plans which were to success
fully save the home Of the "fatheI
of his country" The actual work was
done by gifted daughter Of the Cum
ingham family Of Rosemont, Miss Ann
Pamela Cunningham, but to her mo-
ther, Mrs. Louisa Cunningham, belongs
the distinguished honor Of having sug-
gested and made the first effort to-
wards the organization Of the Mount
Vernon association. This lady was
the daughter of Col William Bird of
Birdsborough, Pa. He moved to
Georgia in 1796. Mrs. Cunningham
was six years old when her father
moved to Georgia, she having been
born in Alexandria, Va, in 1890, at
the home Of her grandfather, Col.
Dalton. It was her mothers eldest
sister, who died young, who had the
honor of winning the heart and re-
fusing the hand Of the great Washing
ton, when he was surveying lands for
Lord Fairfax and oaly II years old.
Mrs. Louisa Cunningham, one Of the
daughters of Col. Bird, was the wife
of Capt Rooert Cunningham, distin-
guished Ior his wealth. culture and
noble hospitality. He lived at Rose
mont in baronial style, surrounded by
all the luxuries which fortune can
give. His great home was the frequent
resort of his friends and acquaint-
ances, embracing the most noted pub
lie men of the day, and the hospitable
welcome they received insured for the
house large number of visitors at
all seasons. Capt. Cunningham vas
a gentleman of great public spirit and
charity, as we'll as hospitality and
friendship. During the War Of 1912
he raised volunteer company and
entered the service of his country.
When, as will be taken up later, one
considers the fact that the Cunning
hams were loyal to the crown during
the Revolution, this fact, raising a
company to fight the British in 1912,
shows that the f mily had with becom-
ing grace become entirely loyal to the
new order of things. And how re-
narkable it IS, too, that it should have
been from a descendant of this fam
lily that the first suggestion of pre-
serving the home of the ''father of his
country came. It is another strong
link in the chain of the family's loyal
ty. They were loyal to the crown
from conviction, but having seen the
inevitbale settlement of the issue,
none were or have since been more
loyal to the government of the land.
But, Of the south, southern, the men
of the family were all brave and
faithful Confederate soldiers. It could
have hardly been otherwise when one
is told that William L. Yancey was
reared at Old Rosemont. As he spoke,
the others of the family felt. Mr.
Yancey was a son Of Benjamin Yam
cey and Miss Bird, sister Of Mrs.
Louisa Cunningham.

Wedding Gowns, Like
Street Dress, Are Shorter

Wedding gowns, like their coun-
terparts of the avenue, apparently
have lost all inclination TO increase
in length. seeming rather to have a
| tendency to become shorter.
The one pictured here. designed
by a New York modiste, is an adap-
tation of the Spanish bouffant style
with a skirt of heavy baronet sat
in of deep ivory. Slightly longer on
the sides than in back and front.
The skirt is divided in front, showing
a petticoat of cream duchess lace on
a bit of chiffon.
The ivory satin bodice is abso-
lutely plain and fits tightly with a
bertha and short. delicate sleeves
of cream duchess lace. An added
suggestion of springtime lies in the
slender steamers of pale rose and
jade satin ribbons attached at the
waistline. These end in knots OF
pale pink English hawthorn bios
SONS and primroses.
The veil is of old Spanish lace,
which discloses a rosette of lace
with a knot of hawthorn and prim-
roses at the square. 1t is dress
ed high on the hair like a Spanish
comb and is held in place by a band
of pearls and primroses. The bou-
quet is of primrose and hawthorn
bordered with white Scotch heather
and a frill of lace.
Miss Marjorie Daw. movie actress,
wears the gown in the picture. 1t
was designed for her. Not for a real
wedding, but a reel one.

Lung Trouble

Lung Trouble
O. Have been bothered with my
lungs. They feel heavy; every day
I cough up heavy stuff. Besides my
lungs, 1 feel pretty good. Got a
cold going through the Irish sea in
a fog and afterwards it settled in
my lungs. And will you tell me
what is good to get my lungs
cleaerd Of that heavy stuff?
The Answer
A little consideration will
show how impossible it is TO give
definite advice as to treatment. In
every form of chronic cold, the pa
tent should make sure that the
trouble is not tuberculosis. II the
lungs are found not to be in
volved, the examination should be
directed to the condition of the
nose and throat, for that is often
the cause of such symptoms.

Skin Troubles
@. Have always been troubled
with very dry, scaly skin, and
eczema about the nipple and leg,
and one place on the back. The
itching is intense. Please tell me
what to do?
The Answer
This affection is quite frequently
due to some article of diet which
causes the peculiar skin reaction.
Usually the food substance is some
form of protein" which. in general
terms, is represented by the white
Of an egg or lean meat. Since
there are many other articles of
food which contain protein, it re-
quires a very skillful physician and
the employment of special methods
to determine the type responsible
for the eczema.
There is another type of eczema
which Is OF a V origin. The
patient should lead a regular life,
avoid undue excitement and over
fatigue. take plenty of sleep, with
the windows open; partake of an
abundance of plain, wholesome
food. avoiding fried foods, pas
tries and sweets. Pay due atten-
ton to condition of bowels. Drink
plenty of water, eat fruits and
one or two green vegetables every
day.
