Together they proved themselves able i and charming hosts
 Inspect the Building
 The Areanumites arrived on the scene about clock. and during the next half hour were occupied In in- suecting the Inn. under the guidance af the Baron. Although the Inn is one large building. it is known Co have been built in f7T5. How old the orig nal part of the structure is, no one knows.
 The Baron purchased the property three years ago and since then be has been remodeilinQ it from cellar Co gar ret. In the lounRiBR or sitting room, one finds most attractive and comfort able furniture. and on one side of the room is q large fireplace. The walls af the room are paneled, and on each panel has been painted an attractive silhouette picture by q New York art ist friend of the Baron.
 H,.o. Efx.rIare
 The dining room Is long and com fsrtably wide. and here also the panel painting scheme has been carried out. But the most striking feature of the room is the fireplace. said to be seven teen feet across. There are grand father settles at each side of the fire place. and also an ancient spinning wheel
 There are other artistieaiiy aTTHng- ed and handsomely furnished rooms on the first floor. and upstairs are numer ous bedrooms, in which are Co be found many pieces of antique furni- fure. There is also fireplace in each room. Most of the floors are painted in striking. but handsome, checker board designs and covered generously with rugs.
 Az proving the aneientness of the structure. one finds the doors hung with hinges made 200 years aVo; hand wrought woodwork and nails' smoke chamber for the curing of hams and bacon. and parts of the structure are peFeed together. Hand hewn beams i and rafters. now stripped of laths and plaster and vanished also show the probable age of the building, and lu their present state add to the appear anee of every room.

Eighteen par holes were played.
At IA Jones had the better drives and
at 10 of them his second shots were

Washington's fame as a city Of

as a city of back yards. Visitors

bined. The marigoldS have delighted
in the wet weather and the stalks
and blossoms have attained excep-
tional size. The double orange
blooms in particular. with the unique
odor of the attached leaves, have had
a rebirth of popularity both in Wash
ington and the suburbs.
Asters are growing in compact,
feathery banks of blue, pink, white
and red in hundreds Of back yards
and will continue even after the first
frosts. The cosmos, Washington's
latest flowers, are beginning to bios

will continue until nearly Thanksgiv-

ability to withstand frost and cold
and it is not uncommon to see them
still blooming after the first SHOWS.
Rosebushes Are Snowy.
Perhaps the most SNOWY flowers
of the season are the back yard rose
bushes. They have been growing
steadily and blossoming intermittent
ly all summer, but now they are liter
ally covered with blooms. Even
some of the elm bing roses are bios
son1ing again-although not with the
same flush which they displayed in
May.
Dahlias, which have been consid-
cred a dependable flower for Wash
ington. have proved rather untrust-
worthy this year. The usual
stretches of wet weather, it is ex-
planned. have prevented these flowers
from reaching their fullest fruition.
Sometimes the buds fail to open.
In other cases the flowers appear
rather sickly. This has not prevent

yard displays Of red and white
dahlias-some of the blossoms at
tanning an enormous size.
The District is sharing the sur
rounding country an excellent fruit
year. Backyard grape arbors are
loaded and the pear trees. in particu-
lar, are bending under the weight of
the fruit. But Washington has shown
scant inclination to take up the
space of its backyard with either
fruits or vegetables, preferring the
decorative effects of flowers The
FESTIVAL of back-yards'' is purely a
floral holiday time.
