Creek, which they had last summer and
which Mrs. Saunderson had during the
winter. She is said TO be building a
handsome home out on Massachusetts
avenue extended-in the far northwest
ern corner of the District (of Columbia)
near the two Glover places. Last sea-
son Secretary Hughes took no vacation.
He and Mrs. Hughes seemed to find
themselves quite comfortable in that
lovely suburban home, with the miles OF
natural and cultivated reaches of Rock
Creek Park for their front and back
yard and the creek itself at the edge OF
their grounds.
Members of Cabinet Scattered.
As for the remainder of the cab
ineteers" are rather variously
scattering. Secretary Weeks went up to
West Point for the graduating exercises
at the Military Academy. and afterward
to Cleveland, where he was the honored
guest at the commencement of the West
ern Reserve University. And while he
was gone Mrs. Weeks got herself off for
the summer, for Boston first. and then
for their big farm up in White Noun
tains, where her husband will Join her as
his duties permit. The Denbys are some
where on the broad Pacific, probably
Henderson, with them and a number OF
the famous Annapolis class of 1881 on
board, sailed from San Diego CAL. about
a week ago. There are several stops for
inspection on the part of the Secretary
of the Navy scheduled in the Henderson's
itinerary, before she casts anchor in
Japanese waters and lands her party for
the reunion of that noted class to be
held in Japan this year with Admiral
Uriu and the Imperial Japanese Govern
ment as hosts. 1t must have been a
great disappointment to Secretary Weeks
that he could not get away with that
party, for he has always been loyal
and active member of that class organ
ization and has done not little in hold
ing it together.
II Secretary Mellon has any summer
plans, they have not as yet developed.
Last season he took a cottage at Hot
Springs and went down for the week
ends, joining his daughter and his young
son there. They made that their head
quarters. but they wandered around con-
siderably, especially Miss Ailsa Mellon,
making all sorts of visits. That is pretty
much what she has been doing all win
ter. Her father sticks pretty closely to
his desk in the Treasury, and his big
apartment at 1885 Massachusetts ave-
nue.. but his pretty daughter is here to-
day and somewhere else tomorrow. She
was here for the White House garden
party last week and for the Waddell-
Hughes wedding, being distinctly and
pleasantly in evidence at both events, but
early this week she went up to New
York for a few days, and ! have not
heard of her return.
The Falls and the Wallaces are for
Ion N ShinRt0n-
both families occupying their apart
ments at Wardman Park Hotel. Both
incidentally have recently welcomed
brand new grandchildren. The two
Wallace girls, Mary and Ruth, have
both been very much occupied with col,
lege affairs. Miss Mary is a graduate
of Vassar. and has been in charge in
this district of the Vassar drive for
big endowment fund for the increasing
of the salaries of the teachers. She has
been up to the Vassar commencement
this week, rendering an account Of her
stewardshp-since the drive" ended
with this collegiate year-and enjoying
the commencement doings. Miss Ruth
is a Goucher girl, and has been lately
with a party of Sigma Phi girls at
Sherwood Forest, down near Annapolis.
She was to have returned by now, as
was Miss Mary, and Mrs. Wallace was
expecting one of her daughters-in-law
to arrive about the middle of June for
visit, and Secretary Wallace, who has
been in the West, was due home about
now So the Wallaces must have some
thing like a full house by this time.
The Hoovers come and go. They had
been out in the middle West-Secretary
Hoover functioning as the bright par
tcular star of the graduation cere-
monies of some of the fresh water coll
leges-and adding to his collection of
honorary degrees. They all do that,
however. But they don't all have their
statues unveiled while they are still in
the flesh, as Hoover did recently; nor
do foreign governments have special
medals struck in their honor. as Bel
gium is doing for Secretary Hoover
Baron de Cartier announced just before
his departure that he had received adj
vices from Brussels that his Govern
ment was planning thus to honor Hoo
yer. 1t Is having a special medal struck
to be offered to Secretary Hoover, 'in
recognition of the invaluable services
rendered to the Belgian civilians dur
ing the war by the Commission for the
