trimmed with a wreath of tiny
fuschia flowers at the front. Mrs
Swanson and Mrs. Woodring both
chose gowns in aquamarine blue, Mrs.
SWanson's gown being fashioned with
a deep cape and her hat was of two
hue, while the crown matched her
gown. Mrs. Woodrings hat was of
the exact shade of her gown, which
was made on simple lines with elbow
length sleeves. Mrs Garner wore a
smart black gown and hat and white
swagger coat, while Mrs. Roper was
in a Powered print with black straw

Mrs. Miller has six States under her
supervision and expressed her delight
in the fact that the art and music
programs Of the administration come

two programs should be more or less
under her supervision.

woman officials at the function yester-
day were Mrs. Blair Bannister, assist
ant treasurer of the United States.
and Mrs. Lucille Foster Mcmillan, the

who were wearing trailing garden
frocks with large floppy hats.
The sun, however, was faithful
throughout the reception and after
the receiving line had broken up many
remained to enjoy the beauty Of the
grounds Of the Presidents house.

trees, where chairs had been placed
for their comfort, while others strolled

fresh and green and with the sun

the guests.
Mrs. Roosevelt stood at the top of
the sloping greensward, just below
the south portico, to receive her guests.
She wore q gown of rich blue crepe,
