Mrs. Charles BENNETT
Smith HonOred BY
Appointments

TUE news Of the appOiI htment
Of Mrs. Charles Hennett
Smith, OF Buffalo. to the host Of
chairman Of the New York State
Civil Service Commission ID 80
no little interest to Washington,
for she made her home here
during the years that her hus.
band was in Congress. She had
so many friends here then and
she did so many gentle and
kindly things for persons IN oil
ranks Of life that the story Of
her good fortune viii give wide
spread pleasure.
Mrs. Smith has been on the
New York State Civil Service
Commission for four years, and
from now on. by appointment OF
the governor Of the State she
win head the commissioner
appointment which has caused
her to be editorialized ad. lib.
The first woman member Of
the commission, she, Of course,
is the first woman in the history
Of the Commonwealth 70 head
such an important group. She
won her spurs in the very be-
ginning and the really delightful
phase Of the unusual situation
concerns the entire enthusiasm
with which such distinguished
men as william Gorham Rice
and John G. Clark, her col.
leagues on the commission (of
threey. receive her as their pre-
siding member.
Immediately the appointment
was made they arranged cele-
bration OF her promotion, toast.
ing her right royalty and drink
ing her health after the generous
manner of men who rest on
their own WelI-eaFned laurels. the
one q noted jurist and the other
versed in letters.
ORIGINALLY appointed by
Governor Smith. Democrat,
to I'LL an unexpired term. she
was reappointed for q whole
term by Governor Miller. Gov.
ernor Smiths Republican sue
cessor at. Albany. So party poll
tics had no part to play in the
distinction which has been &C
corded her.
For eight years Mr.. Smith was
a member Of Congress from the
Forty-second New York district.
In the "War Congress he was
a member of the Foreign Affairs
Committee and so had big part
to play in the legislation induced
by the world upheaval. They
are awfully clever, mates. these
two, and the best Of good pals
on the fifty-fifty order.
Memory still fingers Of the nice
parties the Smiths used to give,
the motor trips, the jaunts. the
picnics, the musicales they pro-
NOTED and the dinners they had
with many times a celebrity to
meet.
Indeed their departure left an
awful gap in many quarters
which is still Gaping and likely
to continue a permanent hiatus.
For the Charles Bennett Smiths
were a pair of humans quite
apart from the usual run. In
Buffalo, her home town, q three
day series of dinners, receptions.
teas and various speechifying
assemblages, arranged in honor
of Mrs. Smiths latest distinc-
ton, has just been completed.
