1EUT. FREDDIE COLEMAN,
IL formerly White House aide,
who was married last summer,
is going to give Washington an
opportunity to see his wife, for
they are coming here to visit
Freddie's parents, Mai. Gen.
and Mrs. Frederick Coleman,
some time in the spring. From
all we can CLEAN, Mrs. Freddie
Coleman, jr., is an extremely
fascinating and lovely person
and looks, always, as though
she might have stepped out Of
the pages Of the latest and
Smartest fashion magazine.
COLONEL AND MRS. RUS
" SELL HARTLE have been
having a continuous house
party, ever since before Christ
mas, with friends coming down
from Philadelphia for the holi-
days and then departing just
before the arrival Of Janice
Hoover and Elizabeth Hartle,
the two nieceS of Colonel Har-
tie, who came to spend the
vacation, until after New
Year. Both Janice and Eliza
beth are decidedly pretty girls.
Both are small, slim and grace
full as a willow, and dress ex-
QuiSitely. Janice has dark hair
and eyes and Elizabeth is
golden haired and possesses
deep blue eyes, and they both,
have caused heart murmurs
among the male contingent in
town. These girls are attend
ing Hood College and are leav-
ing to go back there, Monday.
MRS. KARL BRADFORD,
IVA wife of Colonel Bradford,
is a thoughtful little person.
When she sent out her attrac-
tive Christmas cards this year,
she took time to write under.
meath the holiday greetings, a
sweet and personal note of
good wishes and luck for the
next year. And considering the
number Of people she knows, it
couldn't have been a very easy
task.
THE Cadets and Midshipmen,
l. should be glad to go back to
the quiet and routine Of their re-
spective schools, for heavens
knows they haven't been quiet
nor routine either ever since
they poked their saucy heads
into this town. Everybody has
been entertaining them and last
Wednesday the entire Army and
Navy Country Club was turned
over to them and their dates,
for a gala tea dance; then yes
terday, the annual tea dance,
given for these same youngsters
at the War College, was so sue
cessful and so much fun that
several Of them were hard put
to get back to their various
abodes for more dressing and
what not, to start out to vari-
Gus dinners and dances for New
Year Eve.

DECAUSE e these honestly
ID grand, fortnight Dowagers,
delight our soul, we will tell this
story, even though the name Of
the Dowager must be omitted.

Army that everybody knows her.
Anyhow, she does as she pleaseS

and what happened to her once
while on a foreign tour of duty
Is classic in service circles.
It seemed that the Dowager,
