terday when the President and Mrs.
Harding entertained 2.70o disabled
soldiers at lawn party on the
White House grounds.
In the receiving line with the
hosts were General Pershins, Secre.
tary OF War Weeks, Condr. Ralstun
Holmes. Of the U. s.. 8. Mayflo~er,
and Miss Mabel Boardman, Of the
American Red Cross.
The President shook hands with
each Of the former service men, and
always had something pleasant 70
say Mrs. Harding mingled with the
men and frequently took notes as
one of them would recount to her a
case in which Government relief
had been lax.
Conspicuous among the veterans
was q group OF blinded soldiers WIN
came over from the Baltimore Hos.
pitAl.
Dressed for Hot Weather.
President Harding was dressed for
hot weather. He wore a natty black
coat and white trousers with white
shoes. Mrs Harding wore white
silk Reorgette frock with black net
and black embroidery insets in the
skirt and bodice. Her white shoes
were outlined with a narrow band OF
black leather. She wore q black pic,
ture hat with dropping feather OF
black.
Capt. Julius l. Peyser, vice com
mander Of the District Department,
OF the American Legion, was by far
the busiest man at the White House
lie was here, there and everywhere
directing the heavy traffic at the
Executive Mansion.
Laddie Boy oeemed to enjoy the
crowds immensely. In fact, he
strolled about the grounds with
such canine dignity that one would
think the party was given for him
exclusively.
President Harding was particu.
ilarly interested in the blind vet.
Grams, He guided several OF these
men TO where Mrs. Harding was
standing, introducing them to the
First Lady Of the Land.
The reception. which began about
4 o'clock. concluded at 5:2o. when

BY direction. OF Director General
Forbes, the out.of.town veterans
were given sightseeing trips around
