very long ago included the
newly married Prev Savoys
and Mrs. Royal S. Copeland,
who may be classed as an au-
thoress these days. The wife
of the Senator from New York
wore a stunning blue and white
print with just a hint of red IN
it. The outfit was topped by
blue and white sailor. Lyla
wore navy blue with an en-
broidered bolero-and Prev
wore a smile!
Horse shows being over for
the time being, one can draw
a long breath and enjoy the
garden shows that are now the
order of the day. One of the
most charming gardens in the
show that the Chevy Chase
(Md.) Garden Club is putting
on the end of May is that Of
Mrs. Chester Wells. There are
acres of varied beauty, borders
of bloom, a brook along whose
banks grow violets, wild phlox
and blue bells, all nesting in
their natural setting. One cor
ner of the garden, set against
a background of Towering
dogwood, is a rock garden that
rambles down either side Of
stone steps where wild column
bines flower between the stones
and brilliant clusters of sea
pinks, stonecrops, coral bells,
rosemary and other rock plants
grow. This is Mrs. Wells own
particular garden, where she
works with her own hands car
ing for the flowers that have
a special meaning for her.
Here are gifts brought her by
many friends, some from far
corners of this country, some
from across the sea, some even
from far Japan. The latest
addition set out in this enchant-
ing spot is a splendid cluster
of sea pinks at the height of
their rosy bloom, a gift from
her small daughter, Christian,
on Mothers Day.
When Martha and John Cam
mack start out on a trip they
are planning to take very
shortly, it is going to look like
a boys camp enrolment leav'
ing town for the Summer. Il
so happens that the Cammacks
have five handsome sons, and
their father and mother want
them to see Mexico and Cali
fornia this year. They will &C
directly to Mexico City from
Washington, take a boat up tc
Los Angeles and fly back across
the Continent, all of which
sounds very exciting to US anc
undoubtedly does to those five
sturdy young boys.
