BY SALLIE v. H. PICKETT.

Mrs. Roosevelt's brief visit to the
White House, driving her roadster
from New York State following the
dispersal of the family party gathered
there to celebrate Franklin D. Roose-
velt's twenty-first birthday anniver-
sary, gave a glowing touch Of do
mestic life to the old mansion, even IT
she did stay but a few hours. She
found the new electric range that Is
to give to the White House its first
comfortably served State dinners had
not arrived, but there was the usual
voyage all over the mansion, chatting,
laughing and making the place full
alive and gay while she was there.
For years the formal State dinners
and all other feasts partaking OF the
nature of banquets were served by
caterers from outside, and nearly al
ways the after comments were on the
delightful company and no. the hot
meals, for often the soup and fish were
lukewarm and other features Of the
menu also were served in tepid state.
Mrs. Taft was the first to return to
real White House cooked food for large
parties and now, with up-to-date and
much enlarged facilities the food will
steam and sizzle when it should while
the Frigidaire plant will attend to the
rest. And now for weeks to come the
mansion will be given over to tourists
and workmen for the President and
Mrs. Roosevelt will have an entire
change of scene. There is an idea
abroad that Mrs. Roosevelt may ac-
company the President on his proposed
Journey to the California coast when
their greatest pleasure will be in seeing
the San Diego Exposition, thing Of
grandeur, SO returning tourists say.
Junketing parties for cabinet men,
bers, junketing parties for Senators
and even an extensive junket for the
Vice President and Mrs. Garner are
causing but little comment just now
and even announcement that the Sc
date Secretary of State was sailing
for some far away place instead Of
going to his old Tennessee home,
would not shock the public AS one
Senator said when asked to COM
ment on junketing in general, why
talk now. There will be enough said
about it in the campaign nearby.
But he was Republican.
The diplomatic presentations at
the White House last week were OF
unusual interest and even the presen-
tation of the first British Ambassador
the first diplomat with that rank in
the Capital, scarcely caused a greater
stir than when popular DR.. Sao-Ke
Alfred Sze handed to President Roose-
welt his credentials as Ambassador
He has been flooded with letters, tele-
grams and messages from his Amer
ican friends and now he is making
his accustomed week end visit to his
family at their Summer home.
Interest is alive in the arrival OF
the new Siamese Minister, Phys
Abhibal Rajamaitri, and his charm
ing lady, who are installed in the
Legation on Kalorama road opposite
John Hays Hammond's Tudor Gothic
mansion. One expects much OF these
particular diplomats and it is said
the new minister is democratic. far
more so than his interesting predeces-
sor, who was rather too reserved for
Washington where much OF the
former ceremony of the corps has
been dispensed with. The new Min
lister comes here to like and not criti-
cize Americans. He likes newspaper
