On Short Visits to Washington

positions held by Mr.. Sullivan. His
service overseas during the war
and his absence from home because
of his present position, however,
has made gaps in the family circle.
He has a lot to catch up on, so
when she makes her infrequent
trips to Washington these days they
talk about the children.
The oldest, Gael, jr., is at Ports
mouth Priory School in Rhode Is
land. His reports and letters to
both parents are of paramount in
terest. A letter to one may cen-
tain some little detail about his
life that he forgot to mention In
letter to the other, so they must
compare notes. Besides, Is to 16
is an important age to a boy
and It's even more important to
his parents.
Two years younger than his
brother. Bede will be graduated in
June from high school. He, too, Is
growing up fast and with daddy
away mother has to take his place
when a fellow has problems for
man-to-man decisions. Sometimes
it's tough, but when they have an
opportunity to talk things over
mother and daddy usually agree that
matters were properly handled.
Then there's Sheila, six years
younger than Bede. She is fully
enjoying all of the thrills Of her
first year in school and is making
friends just as fast as a captivating
little Irish girl can make them. She
writes to her daddy and sends him
copies of her school work. Each
copy goes back to her with penned
note in the corner, usually two
words of commendation such as
fine work" or "keen stuff" with
daddy's love and signature.
Sometimes Brenda, the youngest,
pencils her love to daddy with
Sheila's help. These, too, are given
personal reply.
g Mrs. Sullivan swirns with the
children, skates with them and their
friends and takes them on outings,
and each night she reads to Sheila
and Brenda. When she goes back
home after an all too short week
end in Washington she has the job
of catching the children up on what
has been happening to daddy since
her last trip.
There's one more thing about
Sheila. With Gael writing home
about all the graduation activities
at Priory and Bede excitedly pre-
pairing for his graduation from high
school, she also Is planning to grad
uate-from the first grade to the
second.

Capital hostesses who worry about

can happen now. This

An interesting company Of official
and unofficial Washingtonians
made the acquaintance the other
day of a visitor about whom they
still are talking. The visitor was
Mrs. Gael Sullivan, wife of the exc
cutiye director of the Democratic
National Committee. The occasion
was a tea given by the American
Newspaper Women's Club at which
she and Mr.. Sullivan shared honors
with the special counsel to the Pres
ident and Mrs. Clark Clifford.
Down Dixie way when guests win
the esteem and affection of their
hosts the entire household agrees,
In colloquial fashion, that the visi-
tors have put a spell of charm on
them.
The compliment is a sincere one
and 1t just about expresses the way
those who have become acquainted
with the Cliffords and the Sullivans
feel about them.
The one big regret about the Sui
livans is that she can be here so sell
dom. She would like above anything
else to be where her husband is-and
that means Washington while his
duties require his presence here.
But the Sullivans have a home
out in Chicago, and their home and
their four children are the most i'm
portant things in their lives.
When Mrs. Sullivan talks about
her home and her family the lis
tener somehow begins thinking
about the solar system and how
closely life in this household fol-
lows the pattern of the sun and
the stars. There is natural preju-
dice on the part of Mrs. Sullivan in
favor of her husband as the center
of their little universe. The chances
are that he holds the same preju-
dice in her favor. But it doesn't
matter which one occupies the place
of the sun, the five planets that
revolve around it do so in order
and In harmony.
Mrs. Sullivan was born and reared
in Chicago. She is strictly brunette
and typical of American mother
hood at its best. Her voice is low
and resonant and when she talks
about the family her dark eyes
glow with pride and love. Following
her graduation as a trained nurse
she specialized in anesthesia and
her interests today outside of her
home are limited to organizations
and institutions that have to do
with the health, education and well
fare of children.
Well informed on political af-
fairs, Mrs. Sullivan has taken the
;ame intelligent interest in other

If all the parties given here In

tinuously for about year--it says
here. That Is fair guess for
these halcyon days Of entertaining
that are viewed by some with alarm,
some with envy. some with interest
but always, at any rate, viewed.
Latest additions to the calendar
include the dinner given last night

Mr.. and Mrs. Charles Carroll Glover,
jr., will be hosts at cocktails and
Wednesday Gen. Sir William Nor
gan, Field Marshall Lord wilson's
successor, will give a dinner party.
Gen. Morgan's daughter Peggy, by
the way, is an attractive, petite
brunette with much poise and
super sense of humor.
The Francis Biddles have invited
friends to cocktails on June / to
meet George Biddle. The day after
Anne Bullitt becomes the bride of
Anthony Drexel Biddle, there are
bound to be dozens of "Mainliners"
on hand Then there's the big
barbecue in honor of Sam Rayburn
which the George Vournases are CIV
ing at their farm in Maryland on
June s like the one they had last
year. Called a "Mastiha, a word
the Greeks have denoting an unregi-
mented social gathering" the invita-
ton reads, "A guest may help him
self to drink or a snack at any
moment he has the desire, or in lieu
thereof, pitch hay, whitewash the
fence, play horseshoes, milk the
goats or the cows, collect the eggs,
feed the pigs, shear the sheep"
Sounds kind of active) or play
bridge or gin rummy or take a dip
in the Drew Pearsons' neighboring
pool.
A party of the other afternoon
where most any international prob
lem might have been solved on the
spot, was that given by the George
McGhees. He is Special Assistant
to Undersecretary of State william
Clayton and he has a goodlooking
wife named Cecilia, who's tall, chic
and definitely on the qui vive. Both
are from Dallas, Tex, and there
were Texans as well as State De-
partment officials on hand.
Gathered in the formal garden,
with its flag walks, beautiful box
