are still suffered. The Belmont
households like a Fall river
steamboat--has been closed for
months and months. They say
that the Belmonts can't afford to
keep 1t up and find 1t cheaper to
live abroad. Remember, the
Prince Of Wales stayed there
when he visited Washington? The
Woodbury. Blair's house also has
a shuttered look. 1t usually
does. however. even when they
are "in residence" Their shades
are SO dark that never a ray
of light peeps out at night. Just
now they are at Newport, but
due back again within a week or
two.
The Guy Goffs are home after
a short European trip. Their
house has been freshly painted.
Such a home-like sort of place.
They bought 1t from Mrs. Thorn.
as w. Symons. The Clover house
Is for sale or rent. Miss Eudora
Clover spent a few weeks there
in the early summer, getting the
house in order. and then slipped
away to California and her be-
loved ranch in the Napa Valley.
Mrs. John R.. Williams has
bought the late Judge Anderson's
house hard by. Is having its face
pealed. Like a women who under
goes the same operation II looks
ten years younger, but has lost
much OF its character and EXPIRES
sion. Wonder IL Mrs. williams
will occupy the house herself.
Seems probable. for it's almost
across the street from the home OF
her daughter, Mrs. Joseph Letter.
She sold her big house In Massa-
chusetts avenue last spring. The
Hungarian Minister and Countess
Szechenyi bought It.
The Letters won't be home until
the middle OF October, but their
house is being made ready for
them. A glimpse Of their garden
snow white chickens strutting
about. Mrs. Robert r. Hits house
across the street is one OF the love-
liest In Washington. Typically
French in architecture and so re-
strained.
Mrs. Hsnry D. Flood must be
back, her window boxes have bios
somed out and that gay little flow
er her small daughter is playing on
the doorstep. What engaging
clothes little girls wear these DAYS.
Massachusetts, avenue-why half
the houses In the block have For
Sale" signs on 'em. There's the
pretty house Mrs. Cromwell Brooks
occupied before she married Gen.
Douglas Macarthur. II, too, Is Tor
sale, and it's gay window boxes are
gone. Wonder II there can be any
truth in the rumor that the Mac
Arthurs are to separate. Hope
not. They're such a good looking
pair. I hear they've sailed for the
Philippines.

creeping in. The Recquette CUB

ST. Johns Church. They're doing
something to the portico. Looks
much better since It has weathered
a hit than IL did when the church
was first done over.
LAFAYETTE Park Is most alluring
IN the mornings. Watch the black
birds strutting. How their feathers
eleam. And the pigeons. And the
souirrels. Tame, all Of them.
Tbey say the squirrels in the
white House grounds just across
the Avenue are SO ventuesome
that they invade the house itself.

has made up there In the big room
looking off toward the river. And
how everybody Is rejoicing tnat
she is on the mend.
