Ole Avenue and listen, or messy
up to the first crowd you see
ganged-up in the middle of the
sidewalk and do the same thing and
you'll find that what they're talk
ing about will be politics. Course it

that is if you got your own boots
on, that most of them don't yet
know the ABC's of what they're
talking about even though they're

William L. Dawson bout what he
said bout them civil rights up in
Chicago at that Democrat COnven-

looked lack to me that most every
body had got mad with E e +

most, important thing the Chilluns
have discovered since they come
out of the wilderness Leaning on

Tribe of keeping strictly to the
idea "all men down and no man
up" at least as far as them with

new note which it looked lack to

As a result Of sharp cuts in ap-
preparations which the Eighty-Sec-

White House Debut
Was Brilliant Fete
5Oth Anniversary of Alice Roosevet's
Presentation Brings Back Memories
ir., left to right.
BY Katharine M. Brooks

The "brilliance and the glory"
that once were the entertainments
in Washington Is well to remem-
ber. The moderns are won't to
think that today-with its ex-
terror comforts and speed, motion
pictures, television and such di-
versions, superior to the so-called
good old days" But going back
half a century it is interesting to
read:
Thousands Of roses added fra
GRANGE and beauty to the White
House last night" said the society
column of The Evening Star, jan
uary 4, 1902. 1t was the opening
of the story of the debut of Miss
Alice Lee Roosevelt, daughter of
President Theodore Roosevelt and
now the widow of Speaker Nicho-
las Longworth.
Doncinq Protested
There was a time-though some
years before that-that dancing
in the White House had caused a
flood of protests. These followed
a dance given by the daughter
and daughter-in-law of President
and Mrs. Benjamin Harrison. Both
Mrs. James Robert Mckee and
Mrs. Russell B. Harrison, with
their families. spent much time
in the White House with President
and Mrs. Harrison, and being
young and lively they gave a
dance. 1t was the only such fri
volity in the Executive Mansion
which the public heard about un-
til President Theodore Roosevelt
presented his daughter.
There were also many protests
of what the young people did in
the Theodore Roosevelt admins
tration. The children were very
active and. like many other normal
young people, enjoyed pranks and
gayety. The debutante in the
family was just as lively.
Location Historic
Continuing the story of the
debut ". at the dance in honor
of the entry of the Presidents s
daughter into the rosebud garden
of lovely young girls. Many girls
have been presented to society
amid much more luxurious sur
roundings, but none have been
welcomed in a house whose his
toric pre-eminence exceeds all
others in this broad land. No
event of recent years has been
anticipated with more pleasurable
excitement and with better reason.
Relatives of the Roosevelt family
came from Boston and New York
and girl friends of the debutante
with whom she has been asso-
ciated in school here and else
where also took part in the fes-
tivity. The entertainment came
as near having no official meaning
as is ever possible for any occur
renee at the White House.

butante received in the. blue room

began to assemble the dancing
