has watched social life whirl during

Mrs. Ludlow thoroughly enjoys
the capitols social life, but through
the eyes of former newspaper So
ciety editor. it loses no little of its
glamor. Mrs. Ludlow was society
editor of the old indianapolis Sen
tinel when Mr.. Ludlow, an am
bilious reporter, was a member of
its staff. Their acquaintance ripened
into romance and when Mr.. Ludlow
went to Washington as the Senti-

prived the Sentinel of the services
of its society writer.
Louis had the Washington bee in
his bonnet as long as can remem-
her," said Mrs. Ludlow.

reportorial efforts, he realized, and
politics and government were his
hobbies"
But social functions were subordi-
mated to family interests in the
Ludlow home. They have three
married daughters, two residing in
Washington and the third in Cleve-
land, O., and one son, Louis Jr., 81,
now at George Washington univer-
Sity.
while the family must come first
in woman'S interests" said Mrs.
Ludlow, woman owes it to herself,
her family and her country to main
tain an active interest in politics.
This is an obligation going hand
in hand with her growing independ-
ence and widening opportunities
and responsibilities.
I'm not unaware of certain ways
this independence finds expression"
said Mrs. Ludlow smiling, as she
glanced across the lobby of the
Sphinx Arms hotel to young woman
casually inhaling cigaret.
II should not like to think that
my girls we're smoking, but that's
their affair after all. And I am not
