Piedmont Hunt Has Good Run at Five Points
Jock" Whitney's Horse Gets Tough Break
In Running of Grand National

Piedmont Hounds met at Five
Points yesterday despite the
snowStolm. At / o'clock it had
stopped showing and there was
about four or five inches on
the ground, but it was a dry
snow, almost like powder, and
did not ball up in the horses
feet.
It was really very lovely see
Ing the riders go off down the
lane at Five Points in the snow
to draw Hubert PhippS' place.
From there they went to Pen
YBryn, back to Phipps, to Mrs.
John Ramey's farm, back Of
John Buffers, then crossed
back to Mrs. Ramey's to Cren-
ShaW'S Cross Roads, where they
got up q fox and ran him
across to Mrs. Ramey'S to
Phipps to LlewellynS to Mrs.
Slater's to the Polo Fields to
William Langley's, on up Goose
Greek, to Phipps, back of Lew
ellyn's, to Hubert Phipps-
where the fox went in after
giving the field a 5O-minute
run.
There was wonderful hound
work, the Field being with
hounds all the time and view
ing the fox several times. Those
hunting, besides the Master, A.

be, it nevertheless is strange
that those persons who were
attached to the staff Of Col.

have been given better posts.
Among those who now find
themselves in better circum-
stances are Anna D. HurWitz,
former clerk to the Senatorial
Campaign Committee, now
Colonel Halsey's private secre-
tary; George w. Neville, once

of the Senate Committee on
Commerce; william j. c'BillO

Looking On
With Helen
(Continued From Page ~

Continued From Page ~
wrote us back a long letter
about the International Garden
Show at the Grand Central
Palace in New York.
She says she saw more new
flowers with exotic names than
she could possibly find in a
botanical heaven. Out of the
confusion of beauty and sweet
Smellingness, she herself would
give to the roses and the orchids
her blue ribbon.
A gorgeous yellow rose, with
foliage Of tropical size, was
named Mrs. Franklin D. RooSe-
velt." There was so much to
see that Phyllis feet passed out
by the time she reached the
orchids. So she just sat and in
haled perfume and dreamed of
her youth when orchids were a
dollar a bloom and her best
beau sent her one to wear on
her coat on Sundays.
Always keen about people she
found herself looking the crowd
over critically. She says it
wasn't at all a Swanky crowd.
It was made up Of thousands Of
people who looked like the dol
lar admission meant a real sac
rifice. Contrasted with the ra-
diant flowers, the people seemed
pretty drab. People in the mass,
she decided. were appallingly
homely. Their faces and clothes
contrasted with the rows of
tulips in solid phalanx, the
aZalea gardens, the woodland
gardens, the narcisSi and lilies
were hideous.
J. Pierpont Morgan's rare
plant, a two-foot high tropical
thing, named GLOBULIFERA
COCCINEA, won a prize.
Crowds lined the streets
outside Of the show. There
were $4,000 visitors a day.
Phyllis wishes we had a flower
show in Washington every
March. Fifty thousand bad
temperS, worn thin by weeks
Of struggle with Sleet and
mufflers and snow and ga
loshes might thereby be i'm
proved.
We almost forgot PhylliS's
best observation on the Flower
Show-the bit about the rush
to put 25c on a counter for
q bunch Of "Baby'S. Breath
Preferred"

I hope most of you heard the
Grand National broadcast, for
it was exciting. I had a bet on
Thomond II, and when the an
nouncer said he was going to
win, you can imagine how ex-
cited I was.
"Jock" Whitney called up
Mrs. "Jock" Whitney a few
hours after the race and said it
was the most exciting Grand
National race he had ever seen,
and that his Thomond II, a
small horse, understand, carry
ing 173 pounds, should have
won. He said:
"He went beautifully and at
BeeCherS Brook the second
time around Greyalach ran
into ThOmOnd, knocking him
to his knees and unseating
his jockey, Speck, who quickly
regained his seat and went on
to finish third in spite of this
setback"
They say Thomond is
great little horse and has won
many races for his owner.
Lady CavendiSh, who has
Adele Astaire, sister of Freddy
(and one of that great dane
ing team that every one re-
memberS), watched the face
with Jock Whitney.

He Woke Up Then!

'Tis said that the public re-
lations man of certain Govern
ment department is lazy.
Be that as it may, he recently
attended a press conference and
stood near the Secretary of the
department.
The Secretary was asked a
question which he could not
answer but said he would Sc
cure the information.
Turning to the public rela-
tions man. the Secretary said:
Keep that in mind!"
A cruel soul demanded:
with what?"
