The house overlooks the ocean,
the Lodges have their own beach,
and swimming, sailing and fishing
are among their favorite pastimes.
Three COWS. flock of chickens and
q vegetable garden also help to keep
them busy-and their table we'll
supplied. Despite her claims that
she is lazy, Mrs. Lodge does her
share of gardening, although she
says she'd much rather sit by and
watch someone else do the work.
The former Emily Sears, she was
brought up in Beverly and she and
her husband have had their home
there for the past IA years. Edu-
Gated at Miss Mays School, she
made her debut in Boston and met
Henry Cabot Lodge, jr., for the first
time at a dance there when she was
18. They were married about two
years later and she came to Wash
ington as bride, for her husband
was then Washington correspond
ent for the Herald-Tribune. She re-
turned to the Capital again, of
course, when Mr.. Lodge was elected
to the Senate in 1886. After he
resigned early in 1914 in order to
serve overseas as an Army officer,
she spent two winters in New York.
Mrs. Lodge likes to travel and,
while her husband was still with
the Herald Tribune, accompanied
him on an assignment to Nicaragua
and trip around the world. Her
most recent visit abroad was made
just few months ago when Senator
Lodge went to Germany and France
shortly after the last election.
She also likes politics, but not as
an active participant. She definitely
shuns speech making. Il love
going around" she confesses, until
I hear some one suggest, Now II you
will only say few words >"
Mrs. Lodge insists that she's never
done anything really worthwhile, .
but the record fails to bear her out
She has served for a long time on
the board of the North Shore Baby's
Hospital at Salem, Mass, and her
war work included service with the
USO Lounge at Pennsylvania Sta
ton in New York, the Gray Ladies
at Chelsea Naval Hospital and the
American Women's Volunteer Serv-
Ices. Harry also points out that she
rolled bandages for the Red Cross
and that, before the war, she was
a driver In the Red Cross Motor
Corps.
More recently she did yeoman
service for the Washington Com
mittee for National Civilian Reha-
bilitation when she acted as ticket
chairman for its benefit Washington
premiere of THE Best Years of Our
Lives"
That" she said, "was my first
experience as a chairman of any,
thing of the sort. And I enjoyed
'it-but not until it was all overt"
She and Senator Lodge were liv-
ing at Wardman Park at the time
and her telephone started ringing
early in the morning.

ing with the aid of her younger son
Harry. Il
The role Is a little surprising to
one who thinks of her as 'typically
Boston," Mrs. Lodge, who has fair
hair and lovely brown eyes, Is tall
and graceful and has a definite air
of distinction. But she also Is en-
dowed with gay sense of humor,
is inclined to take things as they
come and prefers q quiet family
life to a very social one.
Asked If house-painting we're her
hobby, she laughed and said: II
love the idea of painting-and the
first two days of it., But Harry will
probably tell you that he does the
ceilings and all of the hard work
while I confine my efforts to the
radiator"
Actually, Harry comedies that his
mother does a very good job. But
he likes to tease her and when she
claimed that "laziness is my beset-
ting sin," he grinned and added
You know, she never does today
what she can put off until to-
morrow"
Harry, whose real name is Henry
Sears Lodge. has managed to keep
his mother pretty busy, however,
since he came home for the spring
holidays from Groton.
Mrs. Lodge loves old houses and
that fits in nicely with his own
interest in architecture and his
fondness for driving a car. Even
with moving and painting demand
ing first consideration, he managed
to persuade her to take excursions
to such points OF interest as Mount
Vernon and Monticello during his
vacation.
The Lodges older son George, who
served in the Navy for IA months,
is now in his freshman year at
Harvard. His special interests in
clude politics and newspapers and,
like his father who was political
news correspondent for the New
York Herald Tribune for five years,
he is planning to enter the fourth
estate.
Mrs. Lodge thoroughly enjoys her
family and, while the boys are in
school, looks forward to their sum-
mers together at their home at Bev-
erly. Mass, about Is miles from
Boston.

C0rcOran Gallery
Is THE Setting
For d Reception

Another brilliant reception Is add
ed to the long list of such functions
given in the Corcoran Gallery of Art.
The president and board of trustees
of the Gallery invited prominent,
officials, diplomats and other lovers
of art to the preview of the Twentieth
Biennial Exhibition of Contemporary
American oil paintings last evening.
1t was the first such formal opening
since before the war.
Mr.. Corcoran Thorn, president,
who is great-nephew of the founder
w. w. Corcoran. and Mrs. Thorn
were present and although they
greeted the guests in the various
rooms, there was no formal receiving
line. The first vice president and
Mrs. Charles Carroll Glover, and the
second vice president, Mr.. Rudolph
Max Kaufman, and Mrs. Kauff-
mann, were others viewing the ex-
hibit. Other trustees attending were
Mr.. Robert Vedder Fleming, treas
urer, and Mrs. Fleming, Mr.. John
Spalding Flannery, with Mrs Flan-
merry. and Mr.. Breckenridge Long,
who became a trustee after the death
of the former president, Mr.. George

and were the only trustees absent.
The director emeritus of the GAL
lery and Mrs. C. Powell Minnigerode
were there as were of course, the
comparatively new director Mr..
Herman Warner Williams, jr., and
Mrs. Williams. Mr.. and Mrs. Will
liams who came here from New

ut 3212 Klingle road.
Miss Emily P. Millard, who has
served the directors as secretary for
nearly forty years, and for some
years past as special assistant in
charge of exhibitions, will retire from
active duties this summer. She at
tended the preview and everywhere
she was surrounded by friends.
Coming in for large share of
attention and interest were two of
the winners in the exhibition, Mr..
Walter Stuempig of Collegeville, Pa,
whose painting 1.-TWO Houses" was
awarded the w. A. Clark second prize
and the Corcoran Silver Medal, and
Mr.. Sigmund Menkes of New York,
winner of the Corcoran Gold Medal
and the $4,000 first prize for his
Days End 1916"

representative of the various art
and social circles of the National
Capital, including diplomats, Off
Gals officers of the armed forces
and resident Washingtonians.

breakfast without burning the
cereal." she recalled. And he never
got any toast"
Now that she is in house again,
Mrs. Lodge no longer prepares
breakfast as regular practice, but
she doesn't mind cooking when she
has to and spaghetti is one of her
specialties. Harry says she's mar
velous on soups" and he highly rec
ommends her version of country
captain" recipe combining chick
en-, nce and sauce made of toma-
toes, onions and celery, that she
picked up at Fort Benning. Ga.
Harry also likes to try his hand
at cooking, but Senator Lodge never
attempts the role OF chef. About
all I can get Cabot to do Is wash
and dry the dishes," his wife
laughed.
