She doesn't expect a special
Mothers Day greeting from her
son. the president of the United

and she spends quiet weekend

When he was ! boy he gave her
what might amount to Mothers
Day gifts, but they came with a
spontaneous disregard for calen-
dar days.

& cemfortsble Understanding
One gets the impression from
Mrs. Rooscvelt.s easy, informal
conversation that the relationship
between the president and his
mother is one Of comfortable un-
derstsnding, requiring no damp
eyed demonstrations of affection.
There is . marked resemblance
between mother, and son. They
have the same well-shaped head,
the same strong chin and the same
cordial good humor. The resemb-
lance Is particularly striking when
she speaks.
"Of course we talk alike" she
said. smiling. Il brought him up,
didn'tI? He speaks like all of my,
family-and like his father, too"
