BY HELEN CIBLO

nERHAPS some OF WaShingtonS long
Il time residents will remember this lad
as one who used to sell The Evening Star In
the vicinity of Fourteenth and streets
NV. Those were the days Of the extra"
and on the sinking Of the Titanic he
cleared SIS.
Born in New York City on July Il. 1900.
he attended school at Brooklyn up to the
sixth grade When his salesman father died.
this only child and his mother moved 20
Washington to live with his grandparents
His mother took Job she retired from many
years later-working an old hand press In
the Bureau Of Engraving and Printing.
When he came to Washington Il was
already like home because he had spent his
summers visiting his grandparents. His first
enrolment In District schools was at Bar
rett. When the family moved about. he
switched first TO old Dennison, next TO Hub
bard and finally TO Strong John Thomson.
While at Dennison he spent his lunch
times helping his grandfather. who owned
a nearby cigar store
The boy did not continue formal edu-
cation beyond grammar school, Instead. he
accepted job that was lined up for him
through his grandfather's friend. Bill Kent.

department store that used to occupy Wood
ward & Lothrop's north building at Eleventh
and @ streets NV. The youthful wage
Garner started out as an office boy. and at
the same time learned TO write advertise
ments for bargain basement merchandise.
When the job proved grind. Bill Kent told
him. I'm going to get you out Of this" and
put his words to action by placing him as
an office boy at the Washington Herald in
1914. He later joined the Washington Times.
where he became advertising copy chief He
moved TO the Washington Post in the same
capacity, He rejoined the Times in 1921 and
remained with that paper until 1899. During
this period. he handled food ads for the
first nine years and served as copy chief the
remainder of the time.
The boy In the picture made many con-
facts and in 1899 was offered the job he now
holds There he set trend In food advertis-
ing-an approach that soon was copied
throughout the country. In 1871 and in 1855

but the flowers may vary
according to the favorite
colors Of the honored
guests.
1t is a pity that the
buffers who bring in the
food do not have gold trays
on which to carry it. That
is the only unfortunate
note in the whole meal.
The White House has
only silver trays which are
used both for gold plate"
nights and the lesser oc-
casions when the Lenox
china Of white and blue is
used and the flatware is
silver.
Dinner consists of six
courses for q formal affair.
A formal luncheon Is four
courses compared with
three courses for family
dinners.
The shape Of the table
varies with the number Of
persons and a horseshoe
shape can hold 104 persons.
The straight table is used
for groups of A or less.
At a formal dinner,
Charles, the head butler,
and his brother John, the
second butler. always serve
the President and Mrs. Ell
senhower and the guests Of
honor.

back to the Harding ad-

White House expects pre-
else punctuality. Every
thing is perfectly timed.
The husband and wife
arrive and the husband
checks their coats at the
cloakroom where he is
handed a little envelope.
It contains a small draw
ing Of the table, marked
to show where each Of
them will sit.
It also contains the
names of the partners each
will have. because no man
escorts his own wife to
dinner.
Before the dinner there
is a reception so that the
President can meet any
guests he does not know
and greet old friends.
The husband and wife
make their way to the East
Room where hangs the por-
trait of George Washing
ton. Here the guests and
their wives greet others Of
the party. and aides present

ners if they are not &C
quainted. The guests are
assembled in a line around
the room according to their
position at the table.
At precisely the correct
moment, the President en-
tiers the room with Mrs. Eli
senhower = the President
leading.
With them are the guest
of honor and his wife.
They form q small re-
ceiving line and the guests
file by to pay their re-
spects to their host and
hostess and meet the hon.
ored guests, even II they
had just met two hours ago
at a conference.
A military aide stands
with the President and an
other with his wife to make
any introductions that are
necessary. Even for people
the President has met, it
helps to have an aide pres
ent because no President
can possibly have at his
fingertips the names Of all
the persons that he has
met in a year or a life
time.
When the President has
greeted everyone, the Ma
rine Band strikes up a mill
tary march and the PreSi-
dent leads the way to the
State Dining Room with
the wife of the guest Of
honor. Mrs. Eisenhower is
escorted by the guest Of
honor.

The President is always

his wife.
For the main course. the
buffers work in pairs; one
holds the tray with meat

arate containers, while be-
hind him stands the other

Meanwhile. still another
butler is serving nothing
but hot rolls. No butter is
served at a formal meal.
The rolls are already but
tered. Bread and butter
plates are not used for
state dinners. but for less
formal occasions.
Dessert is served in the
same way as other courses.

White House Dinner

When President Eisen-

to q formal dinner at the
White House, 1t is a little
different from a hostess in

The guest serves himself

Coffee is not served in
the dining room at a formal

coffee is served in another
room-the Red Parlor for
the ladies, the Green Room
for the men.

Like most American men,
the President has a fond
ness for apple pie. Chef
Rysavy gives the directions
for deep-dish apple pie
made from Mrs. Eisenhow-
er's favorite recipe.
He also tells how he made
BURBERRY pies when he
presided over the White
House Kitchens. However,
he says he had nothing to

that made the headlines
and was blamed. for the

TOWNSEND MAN
SEEKS SENATE
32- Year Old Jesse Watson
Bids for Nomination for
Clifford Pryor Seat
WORLD WAR ii VET

Jesse Watson, of Townsend,
last week made formal an
nouncement that he would seek
the Democratic nomination for
the Seventh Senatorial District
seat presently held by Sen. Cliff
ford Pryor of Blackbird. He is
not expected to encounter oppo-
sition inasmuch as the incumbent
has said he will not seek re-nom-
ination. This turn of events had
been expected, due to the long
standing tradition in Blackbird
Hundred of rotating candidates
from one part of the hundred to
the other. Senator Pryor comes
from the eastern section; Mr..
Watson, from the western sec
ton. Mr.. Watson was the first
president of the Young Demo-
cratic Club of Blackbird and Ap-
poquinimink Hundreds, has been
a member of the State Commit
tee, and a deputy sheriff. A vet
eran of Navy service in World
War II, he is 80 years of age
and unmarried. Last fall Mr.
Watson lost out in a battle with
State Rep. Edgar Alexander for
the hundred Craftsmanship in a
battle repeatedly involving antag-
onism to former U. S. Rep. Har-
ris B. Mcdowell, Jr., of Middle
town, who is a likely candidate
for the Congress seat in the next
election.
