Not since the days when President
Grover Cleveland and a group of COM.
panions sought frequent recreation in
duck shooting on the placid waters of
the Potomac has so distinguished party
as that of President Hoover sought sport
on the river and in Chesapeake Bay,
and for long years the residents down
about ST. Marys will tell of the time
when Mr.. Hoover with his Secretary of
War, Mr. Hurley; his Secretary of Agri-
culture, Mr.. Hyde, and others exercised
their Waltonian instincts in the his
toric streams of that section. The
yacht Sequoia put in at Piney Point and
the President and his companions were
given an opportunity to look over the
ground where during the Civil War was
one of the biggest hospitals of that dis
tressing era, the site now boasting an
up-to-date hotel and many comfortable
cottages. From Point Lockout the Presi-
dent reboarded the Sequoia for the
Southwest Middles, which is a fisher
mans paradise and where the prowess
OF Mr.. Hoover in the sport quite paral
leled the deadly aim of Grover Cleve-
Just now President Hoover and the
charming First Lady are enjoying the
rural delights of their rugged little Vir-
ginia camp at the headwaterS of the
Rapidan River. There is no forcing So
cial issues in the guests invited to the
camp, only those asked who will enjoy
the simple life there and contribute to
the pleasure and entertainment of the
of the wizard of electricity, and her
daughter, Mrs John E Sloan, arrived
at the White House Thursday night
they have been guests there before
and Friday took the picturesque drive
with Mrs. Hoover into the Mountain
regions.
Nor are the President and Mrs Hoover
the only members of the executive fam
fly who are enjoying the lures of the
Old Dominion, for while the Secretary
of War and Mrs. Hurley are daily be-
coming more and more enamoured of
their charming place near Leesburg.
the Secretary of Labor and Mrs. Doak,
natives Of Virginia, are making short
excursions to points of interest and look
ing over the work of restoration made
in historic homes in recent years. Mrs.
Doak confesses to having not yet visit
ed Monticello, and that is one OF the
places to which she and the Secretary
will soon motor.

Milady's Motoring
BY FREDERICK c. RUSSELL

of the car have q peculiar fascination
Tor women, especially the Extracting.
Any woman can see that with such a
pattern to start with the 1882 car can
not help but have definite advantages
over everything else that has pre-
ceded it.
But why these X-braces about which
the salesman chatters so glibly? What
does he mean when he speaks of the
no-fiex frame? Why. IN view of the
greatly improved roads. is it necessary
to have frames that look capable of
supporting the body and load OF a
truck?
Just this: Cars are travelling so much
faster and motors are delivering so
much more horsepower It Is necessary
to have frame that will not twist out
OF alignment. Flexing would bring on
front-wheel shimmy and other forms
of instability. New forces must be taken
into account at higher speeds, notably
wind resistance. And finally, there Is
the great strain on the car by reason of
the motors own twisting force. Strange
as 1t may seem, the shaft of every en-
CINE has an inherent desire to remain
stationary and have its motor-and
the entire car-spin around 1t!
1HcT6 SHOULD De Il1IlG III Tile lOlc-
going for any woman who is having
difficulty with front wheel shimmy. AS
last restort-and frequently as wise
step to take when the more obvious
possibilities have been considered-she
should have the mechanic check over
the cowl of the cars body. A crack
here may weaken the body sufficiently
to induce the most serious kind Of
frame instability. The latest cars are
far less dependent on the body for
rigidity, but in cars already in service
a strong body Is essential to frame
strength.
You may have to drive through some
flooded section of road this Spring, and
there may be no Sir Walter Raleigh
present. Just bear in mind that the
trick is to go slowly In low gear. Most
people who get stranded in the middle
of a flooded road do so because they
have fooliShly plunged into the puddle
SO as to splash water on the ignition
wiring.
