OIL MACNATE'S
DAUGHTER IN
j. EYE Of PUBLIC
Long Rival of Late Mrs. Potter
Palmer for Social Leader
ship in Chicago.

CHICAGO, Dec. 29.-From her
birth. Mrs. Harold Mccormick has
held public interest. The daughter of
Americas most powerful financial ge-
MUS, John d. Rockefeller her every
act has been the subject of comment
She was born in Cleveland. at the
Rockefeller home, on August 81, 1872
1t was in the early eos that che
met Harold Fowler Mccormick. a
scion of the influential and wealthy
Mccormick family. On November 26,
1895, they were married.
She was Immediately received as
one of the leaders Of Chicago society.
During the time Mrs. Mccormick
was in the race with Mrs. Potter Pal
mer for social leadership she gave
many brilliant parties. She appeared
at one of them with a silver bracelet
on her ankle.
She vas the first Chicago woman to
expose her ankle in public. 1t was
considered rather daring at the time
and caused considerable comment.
At another function she wore a solid
silver dress. 1t was so heavy she had
difficulty in walking. This also caused
gasp in social circles, but. both feats
were more or less effective in her cam
paign for leadership.
Then she departed for Europe, where
she soJourned for eight years. Soon
afterward Mrs. Palmer died, and since
then Chicago has been without an
acknowledged social leader.
Before she left suddenly for Europe
eight years ago Mrs. Mccormick strove
hard to pre-empt the place then oc-
cupied by Mrs. Potter Palmer as Chi
cago's social leader. Just as she was
about to seize the social scepter she
departed. .s-
She was intensely interested in the
development of the world of music,
and for years her annual receptions
to the artists Of the grand opera COM
pany have been one of the features of
her career.
Her interest in the world of civics
was a feature that endeared her to
the suffrage movement.
In 1907 she gave a remarkable in
terview to the press in defense Of
her father. A story had come from
Cleveland that her uncle, Frank
Rockefeller, was about to publish a
book assailing his brother. 1t was a
known secret that there had been a
great deal of bitterness between the
two. At that time Mrs. Mccormick
declared that this was due to jeal-
ousy on the part Of her uncle.
