when Anna Eleanor
Roosevelt sets up house

Visitors to the White House have
habit, of course, of roaming upstairs
and downstairs and through my ladys
chamber. Mrs. Roosevelt won't mind.
She must have every handkerchief and
every cushion in place for her own per-
sonal satisfaction, anyway.

''The drawers in my dressing table
are always in perfect order. If you
should open them today. and open
them again several weeks later, you
would discover that the arrangement
had not varied. Everything Is always
the same"
Mrs. Roosevelt has had much expert
ence as political hostess. Franklin
d. Roosevelt was Assistant Secretary
of the Navy before he moved to the
State house at Albany. Mrs. Roosevelt
has always kept her eye on her house
hold But she has had so many things

Now she will top them all by be-
coming the First Lady of the Land.
'I know very little about the White
House." she admits. "Of course, I've
been there as guest. Until I'm living
there I won't be able to arrange my
daily routine. But it win probably be
very much as 1t has always been.
"Gov. Roosevelt always has breakfast
in his own room. While he eats he
attends to his morning mail.
HE Is an easy person for whom to
cook because he really never pays much
attention to what he is eating. Any
thing suits him. His breakfast menu
seldom varies. It consists of orange
Juice, cereal or bacon and eggs, toast
and coffee.
His physical condition has made it
necessary for him to have valet, SO
I don't know If he would be as orderly
as I am, or not, If he attended to his
own wardrobe.
I'VE usually have guests in our home.
We shall continue to have them at the
White House, of course. When we do,
have breakfast in the main dining
room with them. When our family is
alone I have it served in my sitting

the blue room and all the rooms, Mrs.
Roosevelt is very sure. In her rooms
she will have her favorite flowers
pansies and lilies s-of-the-valley. Maybe
the conservatories on the White House
grounds will have to change their blos-
som beds around.
Mrs. Roosevelt will continue her posi-
ton as teacher in the Todhunter
School for Girls, of which she is part
owner, until the first day of March.
She will stop that day to get ready to
move to Washington
But her interest in the school win
continue. There will be plenty Of
maidens who will wish they had att
tended her school, for she is planning
to have the older girls as frequent
White House guests.
III INTEND to visit the school once
every two or three weeks" Mrs.
Roosevelt asserts when asked how she
intends to span the distance between
the Pennsylvania avenue lawns and the
Todhunter campus. Ever since she has
been in Albany she has been committing
daily to her classes.
"In the afternoon of the days when
I return shall hold conferences with
parents. Occasionally I'll attend a
: morning assembly. The girls whom I
have taught and grown to know well
are coming to the White House to visit
me-"
Mrs Roosevelt has always been noted
for her efficiency. She Is able to dis
pose of the plans for the household
in is minutes. She is very busy, but
never rushed or hurried.
Perhaps no woman in America has
a wider range of interests with which
she is actively affiliated.
The shop, which gives employment to
youth and makes copies Of old American
furniture, is one of her successful busi-
ness ventures. She Is a partner in the
company.
She is the daughter of the late Elliott
Roosevelt, brother of the late Theodore
Roosevelt She didn't change her name
when she married Franklin Roosevelt
Is her fourth cousin. She married him
in 1905.
The woman who will be Americas
First Lady after March was orphaned
when quite young. and educated abroad.
Her teachers noticed her interest in
sociology and economics. No one was
surprised when she entered social serv-
ice work on her return to New York.
She was pioneer in the Junior
League Social Service activities, and
taught English in the Rivington Street
Settlement House.
Mrs. Roosevelt has done much public
speaking on political and social issues.
She is going into the White House with
a thorough knowledge Of the machinery
of government. She herself, in addi-
ton to being the wife of a public OFF,
cial, has served as political commit
teewoman, and for while was editor
of the Women's Democratic News.
She likes blue better than any other
which is distinctly feminine trait. She
hlue-eved and fond of the outdoors.

NEW YORK, April 20 IN.S0.
A resumption of aggressive specu-

the Curb Market generally higher
today, with the speciality division
again in the forefront OF the adj

NEW YORK, April % QN.S).
After opening 81 a bale under
previous closing prices, cotton
futures rallied sharply and to-
ward the close of today's short
session showed losses of slightly
more than Is cents a bale. After
Liverpool had closed 2 to Z Amer
1can points below due, the mar
ket here sustained losses Of IA
to 10 points, and then moved
higher as earlier offerings dried
up.
Heavy weekend profit taking
and offerings from the South,
New Orleans and spot houses
proved too much for scattered
buying by the trade and com.
mission houses in the early trad
ing. But a renewed demand
from professionals and the con-
tinent pushed prices upward.

than in the previous week, al
though slightly less than last
year, were revealed in the New

'tistics. Mill forwardings also
jumped to 100000 bales for the
