cars to be seen, and the roads
out of the city were almost i'm
passable.
The only good road in the
entire area was the Shenan-
doah Valley pike (now Route

Staunton. In the cycling days
we used to take our bicycles on
the train to get to it, but you
couldn't do that with an auto

The misnamed Baltimore
boulevard was almost impass-
able between Beltsville and
Laurel. We considered the
sections near Baltimore COW

good highway. The direct
road to Richmond through
Fredericksburg in places was
a quagmire.
The first out-of town trip in
connection with my reporting
automobile runs was on April

ing and storage man. in his
Buick roadster. We went to
Westminster and Baltimore

1t Was Here to Stuy

In 1909 it was clear that the
automobile had come to Wash
ington to stay.
Fourteenth street and Con-
necticut avenue in the blocks
above K street were becoming
automobile rows. The auto was
having bullish effect on real
estate. Automobile advertis-
ing was increasing newspaper
incomes.
One thing I did as au-
tomobile editor was to list
the automobile licenses issued
each day. When a man bought
an automobile then. it was
news.
Some Of the early events
promoted by the automobile
club were "sociability runs"
through the city. The route
would be carried in the papers
and big crowds would assemble
on the curbs to watch the cars
60 by, some with woman driv-
ers and many with the entire
family in the seats.
There were two reasons for
combining these runs to the

When the Auto Came Here to Stoy

The eve of an automobile
show always finds me in a state
of subdued excitement.
But as far as I'm concerned
the most fun IL. motoring was
in the years just before World
War I. WHAT had been a sport
for the reckless and wealthy
was becoming a potential ad-
venture for every man.
Washington then had a pop
llation of about $4,000. 1t
was a good market. The
Automobile Club of Wash
ington had been founded in
1905 and the clubhouse on
Georgia avenue and Piney
Branch road had been built a
year or two later.
The first automobile show to
be held on a yearly basis was
held in January, 1910. in Con-
wention Hall NOV Center
Market at Fifth and K streets
NV. Zone previous show.
Washington's first, had been
held in December, 1900. In
1910, and in the succeeding
years, big crowds used to gather
at the rear of the building to
see the new cars arrive for the
show-just like watching the
circus come to town.
Charles E. Miller. a dealer
with an establishment on Four
teenth street between l. and M.
was showing the new model rs.
which had come out in 1909.
Ford had at last produced a
car to sell for less than $1,000.
But the new Hupmobile was
already underwriting him with
a roadster at $3.50.

Follow the Wires

AS none OF the roads were
paved. main road and side
road looked alike. The best
guide was to follow the tele-
phone lines. Asking farmers
was dangerous. They lived in
another world, a very local
world. They were a little
better along this route, but
in Southern Maryland some
of them did not seem to know
anything beyond five miles in
a given direction.
We had to be cautious on
the hills because of the
thank you ma'ams." These
were shallow bitches dug
right across the road. They
allowed the teamsters to halt

New ENJOYS Wife
Natural and Poised
By SeIwo Roosevelt

Nine Couve de Murville, wife
of the new French Ambassa-
dor, combines the piquancy
and naturalness Of a young
girl with the sophistication
and poise of a woman who has
spent many years in public
life.
Yesterday, in her first in
teryiew since her arrival in
Washington last week, she ex-
pressed surprise that people
might be interested in reading
about her. but she obligingly
answered questions on a va
riety of subjects.
Among her interests, she
said, were painting, interior
decorating and clothes.
II like primitives and mod
erns in paintings, but I also
like the Renaissance period.
In furniture, I am a tradition
alist, and am especially fond
OF the period of Louis XIV, al
though it is not always suit
able for today's way Of life,"
she said.
The Arts in Transition
AS for the arts today. Nine.
Couve de Murville says she
believes we are not in a period
Of creation but rather one of
transition.
II think there is evidence
Of return to the more human
sources. uncomplicated by the
intellectual ramifications. As
for example, a number of abb
stract painters appear to have
abandoned such things as
cubism and show signs of re-
turning more to the figurative
in art--that is if they paint
a hand, 1t is a hand" she said.
Turning to the subject of
clothes, Nine. Couve de MUIR

ArnyNurse
Corps Has
Anniversary

The Army Nurse Corps, old
est of the women's military
services, observed its 54th an
niversary yesterday.
The more than 200 Army
nurses assigned in the Second
Army area celebrated the
birthday of their corps with
open houses and informal re-
ceptions at the eight Army
hospitals in the area.
These included the Army
hospitals at Aberdeen Proving
Ground and Fort Meade, Md;
Fort Eustis, Fort Lee and Fort
Monroe, Va: Carlisle Barracks
and Valley Forge. Pa. and
Fort Knox, KY.

vile said there seems to be
trend among French couturiers
to utilize the American idea
Of ready-made clothing and
they are designing certain COL
lectionS with this in mind.
Clothes by Dior
Most of her wardrobe, she
said, came either from Dior or
Givenchy, but none Of her
clothes feature the fiat look
Actually most of my dresses
seem to have great bouffant
skirts with yards and yards of
crinoline underneath" she
said.
Such full skirts will no doubt
compliment her tiny waistline.
Nine. Couve de Murville is so
petite and has such youthful
vivacity it is hard to believe
she has a married daughter.
For her interview she wore a
Dior afternoon dress of
grayish-brown faille. The
round, scooped neckline set off
her pert face to great advan-
tage. She wears her brown
hair very short and brushed off
the face following the line of
her high cheekbones. And
when she smiles, it is not only
with her mouth, but also with
her deep-set merry green eyes.
Nine. Couve de Murville was
born in Paris and spent most
of her life there. She was
married at 20 and her husband
was in the Ministry of Finance
until the war when he went to
Algiers with the Free French.
Diplomatic Life Not New
