The late Col. French purchased
the house something over 35 years
ago and while he was on duty at
Fort Myer during the Great War
he leased it to the then Secretary OF
War and Mrs. Newton D. Baker
Col. French, like his father, Maj
Edward French, was graduate OF
West Point. Maj. French first mar
ried Miss Louisa Beall, descended
from Linnean Beall. After her
death he married Miss Katharine
Pattison, who was the mother OF
the late Col. French.
The terrace on which the house
stands is marked by two age-old
magnolia trees on each side of the
walk to the front door which leads
into the very wide center hall. The
high-ceilinged rooms have French
windows leading onto the terrace
at the back and open fireplaces are
in each of the rooms. A charming
garden lined with tall old trees is
al the back. Opposite, on the south
side of N street, is the rambling
red brick house occupied until her
death by Mrs. Robert Todd Lincoln
daughter-in-law of President Abra-
ham Lincoln.
Mrs. French is one of the very
gifted hostesses of Capital society
and she plans to make her winter
home here, though she has as yet
found nothing available. In addi-
ton to her piano playing she has
talent and ability as a sculptress,
executing not only little figurines
and bas-reliefs but she also has been
very successful in making escutch-
cons in keystones for doorways and
gateways as well. Mrs. French has
done considerable research in gene
ology and her Illuminated coats of
arms on parchment are extremely
well done. She formerly was Miss
Evelyn Weems, daughter of the late
Mr.. and Mrs. Sutton Weems of
Baltimore and the Eastern Shore
of Maryland. Many of the poems
written by the late Col. French
were put on parchment and illum-
mated by Mrs. French.
Admiral and Mrs. Kirk are occu-
pying the house at 1915 Twenty
fourth street which they took tenn
porarily after the sale of their home
at 1875 Thirty-fifth street earlier
this year. Admiral and Mrs. Kirk
will make few if any changes in the
house on N street but plan to main
tain the atmosphere of old George
town of which the house is one of
the excellent examples. Both Ad-
nniral and Mrs. Kirk have inherited
Colonial furniture china and glass
ware which will fit well into their
new abode. Mrs. Kirk formerly was
Miss Lydia Chaplin, daughter of the
late Mr.. and Mrs. Frederick l..
Chaplin, and made her debut in
Washington.
The Kinks house on Thirty fifth
street has been taken by Capt. Ed
ward Harvey Gushing, in the medi-
cal corps of the Naval Reserve, and
Mrs. Gushing, formerly Of Cleve-
land. They have been living at
1884 Volta place since he came here
for duty.

There are two chief types Of al.
,nonds, the bitter and the sweet Bit
ter almonds are largely used for
industrial and commercial pur.
poses, while the greatest volume OF
the sweet almond goes into food
products. A favorite in Europe is
the green almond. This dish consists
of young sweet almonds, picked
while their shells are soft and their
coverings are green and tender. The
white creamy kernel is served fresh.
with skins removed. It may be
served in natural or picked state.
Blanched almonds are used in food
products, such as bakery goods, and
the roasted almonds in the confec.
tionery industry. Almond. oil and al.
mond strip have largely been used
on the market. The almond oil
proves a pleasing substitute for
olive oil Oil for the soap and per.
fuine industry is made from the

Homenlalkers'
Briefs
GLADYS K. BOLON
Home Demonstration Agent

We find news releases urging us
all to do more gardening and
more home food preservation. In
this area no one needs to buy a
can out of the store. Everyone
has sufficient equipment to can
fruits, fruit juices and acid vege-
tables in their homes.
If you do not have the equip
ment, that is a pressure cooker for
non-acid vegetables, borrow one
from the office. We are fortunate
to be in an area where we can
take our home products to the
custom cannerieS if we are short
on time and equipment. We can
always dry the surplus. True,
dried products have, their own Pc
culiar flavor but with fruit you
will be saving sugar, when later
you cook the dried fruit.
There are several bulletins on
preparing your own dryers, in the
office, and instructions on drying.
Dried foods take less storage If
you are cramped for room and
give variety to the winter diet.
At the rate information of freez-
ing is going out I feel sure many
OF you are filling your freezer
lockers. If you have succeeded in
preparing vegetables and fruit in
way you find your family en-
joys, tell us about the method and
we will relay it to others.
Planting late gardens are feas-
ible in this country. Carrots and
beets planted in July are just
right usually for the pit storage.
You can keep your gardens pro-
ducing through many months of
the year. If you haven't planted
a garden, then you should pur-
chase and can when local mark
cts are well supplied.
If you have canned for a num-
Der of years and have kept up
with the best methods please call
at the office. You can help give
out information to your neigh
bors who have not had an oppor-
tunity or a need before to learn
the various way to preserve their
food supply. President Truman is
calling on all of us to help save
the crop by preserving it.
At the All leaders meeting
held at Benton City, at the home
of Mrs. Mary E. Brooks, June 10,
dates were set for All club pic
mics. Prosser area on July IL at
at the Kennewick Park. The All
club fair date was set at Sept. l,
to be held at Benton City. Trans
portation for All club camp and
age limits were again discussed.
If you are fortunate enough to
have stove with a deep well, it
is very useful in keeping food
warm while finishing up the gravy
and other last minute preparations
for your dinner.

nuts, don't get out the chopping

First as T ord
Is Completed

The first postwar handmade
Ford passenger automobile, to be
known as the 1916 model, has
been completed by the Ford Mo-
tor Company, according to A. S
Hatch, Western Regional Manager
Although assembly line produc-
ton of new cars is expected to get
under way in 60 or 80 days, de.
pending upon the availability OF
raw materials, Ford officials
pointed out that motorists will
have to wait a year or two at least
before they can buy new cars, due
TO limited production and priority
restrictions.
The new 1916 postwar Ford
will embody more mechanical i'm
provements than many pre-War
annual models, resulting in great
er economy and a better ride.
The exterior front end appear
ance, interior trim, hardware and
other features are in new design.

VACATION WITH PLAY

This is the ideal year to stay at
home and like it. Besides being
unpatriotic, travelling during war
time is all work and no play. So
set up a beachchair in your back
yard or on the roof; visit your
neighborhood swimming spot; ride
a bicycle or a horse in the park;
play tennis on the city courts.
The lovely cotton fashions in the
stores this year help make a stay
at-home vacation exciting and
glomorous! After. all, dressing the
part of girl enjoying her we'll
earned rest is more than half the
battle.
The new cottons are styled for
comfort and beauty; to keep you
as cool as an ice-cream cone and
to help you get the sunburn which
has become, somehow, the label
of the perfect vacation. Two-piece
swim and play suits leave plenty
of exposed skin in the middle!
Midriffs in dresses are so braz-
emily bare, yet demure enough to
60 to a downtown movie! Sleeves
are cut short for air-conditioning
Of the arms and shoulders. Neck
lines are low and uncluttered.
Bolero ensembles do double duty
the small jacket is mere cover
up for low sunback dresses under
meath. Playsuits come in three
acts-brief shorts, pretty blouses
and separate skirts that camou-
flage the suits main purpose
when you do the shopping-or
are on your way to tennis court
or pool. Even bathing suits come
with skirts to tie on! And fem
ininity is not forgotten-bathing
suits as well as sunback dresses
are adorned with bustles at the
back! "Bloomer Grip ruffles on
playsuits will take all eyes off
any game you're engaged in!
For those of you fortunate
enough to have a victory garden
in which to spend your vacation
days, there are slim Stacks that
will spare your knees while weed
ing and "Clam Diggers" that
make gardening a pleasure. These
combine a gala plaid short jacket
with harmonizing solid color short
Stacks.
For beauty after dark, there
are informal cotton and rayon

suits-in black touched with COL

Gardening is a pleasure, not
problem, when you dress for
it! Make as pretty picture as
the flowers and vegetables you
tend in these cotton "Clam Dig
gers" designed by Horwitz Dub
erman. The jacket follows the
high neck and side button
trends and has wide, easy-to-
work-in sleeves. The plaid takes
its vivid coloring from. your
purple and yellow irises! The
turned-up purple Stacks are
made for free-kneeling - and
figure flattery as well.
