Mrs. Shu, wife of the Chinese
member of the World Bank, was with
Nine. Koo, and others who came
with her were Miss Chu, niece OF
the Ambassador; Mrs. Tan. wife OF
the Chinese Minister, and Mrs. Tst.

Mrs. Archbold. wearing an all-oyer
print silk jersey dress with shan
tung Jacket bordered on the sleeves
and at the bottom with heavy Indian
embroidery, and suntan hat sug-
gesting Nassau-from which she mas
lust returned-was chatting with
every one.
Mrs. Dwight D. Eisenhower, wear
ing a gray suit with a small black
hat, served tea In Chinese cups Oh
blue and white, and Mrs. Charles
L, McNary, wife of the late Senator
from Oregon, also took turn at
pouring tea, with Mrs. Wade Hamp-
ton Haislip following later.
Miss Elizabeth B. Howry, chair
man of the bazaar, wore black and
was busy explaining phases anu
plans for the bazaar to the tea
guests.
Open doorways leading to the
spacious grounds invitingly vel
coined guests to enjoy the rolling
lawns and woods. Beds OF blossom
ing tulips, narcissus and panS1es
drew the admiration OF strollers. as
did the. white, coral, pink and ma
genta azaleas making riot OF color
on a nearby knoll. And for those
who wanted to sip their tea or cock
tails while listening to, the SYM
phonic melodies being poured forth
by the birds In the surrounding
woods there were lawn chairs placed
around large table on which ham,
mered bronze plates held cigarettes
and hammered pewter plates served
as ashtrays.
In the large, terra Gotta paved
dining room with its great, re-
cessed fireplace and handsome teak
wood buffet, the table was laden
with delicious sandwiches and a
variety of other dainties. A bronze
Chinese junk resting on teakwood'
base and filled with pansies CEN
tered the table, which was further
decorated with pewter bowls, pitch
ers and jugs modelled from vari-
Gus species of fish.
Sixteen Chinese girls will model
for the fashion show as a part
of the bazaar, which is being
given to build the fund for the
education and training OF lead
ership in China. Nursing. medicine,
sociology, education, agriculture and
industry all need the training in
leadership that American institu-
tions, already established in CHINA,
can give. Funds from the bazaar
will be devoted to the maintenance
of these institutions which will, as
the posters for the bazaar so
aptly put it, ''help the Chinese to
help themselves. Howard Chandler
Christie, by the way, is the artist
who made the posters.
Many things still are needed to
make the bazaar success, and any
one who has articles to contribute
may either deliver them to the
United Service for China head
quarters at 1720 I street or telephone
Mrs. French at Executive 2418, who
will orra noe Tn call for them
