butante pink camellias. Mrs.
Hamm wore an off-white and

flowers were white butterfly
orchids.
As Mrs. Hamm said earlier
in the day, I'VE are off to new

Picture Exbt Shows Mount Vernon Scenes Of Century AGO
BY Georqe Kennedy

Old pictures Of Mount Vernon
have been collectors items for
several generations and a group
Of them is now on exhibit at the
national shrine.
One Of the most interesting Is
a photograph made for stereop-'
ticon slides by F. Langenheim of
Philadelphia in 1856. At that
time, when there was q stereop-
ticon viewer in almost every par.
lor, this particular view probably
had a big sale.
An old stereopticon box with
the Mount Vernon slide In it is
one Of the exhibits. Visitors can
see in SD how Mount Vernon
looked Just before 1t was taken
over by the Mount Vernon Ladies
Association Of the Union.
They can note that the last
Washington proprietor Zone Of
several in the line of succession
bearing the name John Au-
gustusl did not let the house 60
