Flowers Her Greatest
Delight at White House
Declares Mrs. Roosevelt
Never Expects to Have Elsewhere Experience of
Having All She Wants to Send to
Those Who Enjoy Them.
BY MRS. FRANKLIN D. ROOSEVELT,
Wife of the President.

Another of greatest joys the view from the south

and hedges and beyond the public lawn where
boys and girls play base ball and other to the
Washington Monument standing above the
Evening star., 1933-07-30

To any one who has lived much In
Washington this Monument comes to
mean the spirit of the city, and wher-
ever you are you will find It. It seems
to reach up to the skies and stands
there to remind us Of the dreams which
made it possible for the few men OF
1776 to start the United States OF
America.
Every night before I go to bed, and
sometimes that Is very late, I take my
dogs for walk around the drive which
circles the White House grounds. If 1t
is before IL o'clock the big flood lights
light I'D the Monument, making it q
brilliant white, and even more beautl-
full and conspicuous than in the day
time.
Light Reminder of Duty.
If 1t is after midnight, the Monu-
snent shines in its own whiteness. some
times, with only the moonlight upon
1t. But always at the top burns the
little red light placed there. perhaps, to
guide night airplanes. But I like to
think it is meant to symbolic the
never-failing love and patriotism OF
George Washington, which no hardships
could extinguish and which Is our con-
slant reminder of duty to our country
When I reach the far side OF the
drive and look back at the stately
White House with its beautiful portico
lighted only by the lights from the
windows, and yet shining out in It's
whiteness against the darkness, I get
sense of what this house symbolizes In
its exterior of beauty and dignity
When the house was begun there was
no stately city around it to inspire mer
to do their best-only dream OF Wha'
might some day be the Capital OF tne
United States.
These two things give me the greatest
Joy, and perhaps they will all my lie
he a foy, for beauty carried in memory
is often as great happiness as when
you are experiencing it.
There is, of course, another grea'
satisfaction, and that is the possibility
of giving a great many people grea'
deal of pleasure. Several persons have
asked what kind of requests come to ths
woman whose duty 1t Is to be the
hostess In the White House.

quake was felt when the marriage Of
Senor DR.. Felipe A. Espil, Ambassador
Of Argentina, and Mrs. Courtney Let's
Stillwell Borden took place before jus
tice Jennings Bailey Of the District
Supreme Court in the presence Of . few
witnesses. Senior Don Juan de Car
denas, Ambassador Of Spain, attended
the bridegroom, and the bride had her
sister, Mrs. George Mclaughlin, jr., Of
Chicago, as an escort. The real ro-
nance in the case started before the
brides marriage to Mr.. Stillwell and
was renewed shortly after her Reno
divorce from her second husband, Mr..
John Borden, whose meteoric career IS

and his wife with q party Of friends
