MFRS. ROOSEVELT accepted an invita-
1Xl ton to attend the annual Mother-in-
Law Day festival to be held at Amarillo,
Tex, on March g. She is to be honor guest
and has received a bouquet of 400 roses,
which weighed at least ton.
It would be difficult, if the country were
canvassed, to find anyone more suited to
he an honor guest at a mother-ln-law fest-
val than the Presidents wife.
Her sons and daughters-inlaw both ex- and
nresent, all adore her. And she has had to do
some very skillful steering among the previous
and present marriages Of her children. Her
emergence from these various Scylla and Charyb-
dis feats is positive proof that ton Of roses was
none COO much for the First Lady to receive IN
recognition Of her gifts as a motherinlaw.
BRIDE RECEIVED
Mr. and Mrs Curtin Winsor were graciously
received at the White House, shortly after their
marriage this autumn. Mrs. Winsor, the former
Elizabeth Donner, was Elliott RooseveltS first
wife. And young Bill Roosevelt, Elliott's son by
this marriage, was host at the children's party
held at the White House during Christmas week.
Mr.. Dael, Anna Roosevelt Boettinger's first
husband, never fails to- mention the First Lady
with affection. And since his divorce from the
Presidents daughter, he has been guest Of the
Presidents mother, Mrs. James Roosevelt, at
Hyde Park when his children were visiting their
greatgrandmother.
A very famous clergyman in Washington used
to say laughingly that the commandments didn't
go far enough, that there should have been an
eleventh commandment. reading: Mind your
own business" And Mrs Roosevelt, in dealing
with ner inlaws. has scrupulously followed this
particular Golden Rule.
WISDOM AND TACT
When Franklin Roosevelt Jr. married Ethel
du Pont and they were getting their Charlottes-
vile home in order, one Of the newspaper women
inquired at a press conference: "Are you going
to help select the furniture?" Mrs Roosevelt
took refuge in that wise, kind smile which she
reserves when asked question like Would you
like to see woman President Of the United
States?" In answer to the first question, she
said that if her advice were asked she would be
very glad to give it, but she thought 1t was much

Etl0uette and manners
By MRS. CORNELIUS BEECKMAN
Dear Mrs. Beeckman:

Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
I am planning an early spring
wedding. There will be no re-
ception. Therefore, should I
have invitations printed inviting
our relatives and friends to the
church, or should I send notes?
If you suggest notes, how should
they be worded? Or should my
mother write these notes? She
is a widow. MARY.
You don't tell me quite
enough for me to answer your
question definitely. Is your
church wedding to be formal
one, or an informal one? If it
is to be formal, that is, if you
are to wear the traditional we'd
ding gown and bridal veil, with
all the other wedding plans con-
sistent with this formality,
then you would send formal en-.
graved invitations to>the church
ceremony.
But if it Is to be informal,
notes Of invitation are appro-
pirate. And preferably these
notes of invitation would be
written by your mother, since
she is to be hostess of the occa-
sion. Their wording might be
like this:
Dear Jane:
Mary and CHttord are to be

first OF March, in the -
Church, at four o'clock, and it
