Friemls had wrged that she should depart early in June for the Taft's new summer home on the North Shore of Massachusetts, but all sttasion was in vain. Silver wedding am arssrios are usually of course, a family festival pure and stmpla, but in this instance A must be niberwise, because of the prominence of the chief pas ticipants. There will be a dinner party at the White House that will not be limited to kith apd kip, and a great recep- tion and there will be some compli | mentary functions arranged by out notably the luncheon to be 1 Uineinnati Commercial Club, which comes to the capital fifty pecially for this purpose. It is whispered by those "in the know" that the "entings,' * as Uncle Joe Cannon terms them, will be by n6 means the least of the. features of this White House jollification, Of course, the president does noi expect a prize turkey such as gladdens his heart at Thanksgiving and Christmas and he has cause for. one lone regret in that it is not the season for those marvellous Chesapeake Bay oysters, but it is expected that "Aunt Delia Forrey, whose apple pies "Will" hag praised in public, and private, will outtdo herself in honor of the occasion and thero have been hints that some of the '"fellow-citizens" of the Tafts in Georgia have cone ludgel that noth. ing could be more acceptable. when one 'has a -housefull of relatives than a crate of prize vegetables, mayhap with a watermelon thrown in in de ference to Charlie's especial weakness, And finally there has been an air of mystery of late around the White House kilchen that srouses sus. picions of an anniversary cake -with all the candles and frills worthy of such a jubiles.. It seems particularly that the most netable sve the year at the White House should ba in the nature of a joint compli- ment to the president and Mrs. Taft, for it would be difficult to find a couple in or out af public life who have been more devoted all through their married life. Indeed that they have been able to continue this mu tual devotion since they entered of ficial life is all the more remarkable, because in most ipstances a hushand and wife in such environment discover that with the best of intentions the py have so many and such divergent du- ties that they, of necessity, have less time for each other, Mes. Taft, how- ever, except when actually ineapacitat ed by ill-health, has accompanied her husband on all his trips, even on the voyages to Panama, and 'on his fam- ous trip around the world. That the president and Mrs, Twit have been enabled to remain in the relation of close comrades all through their quarter century of married life is not, perhaps, to be attributed = so much: to similar tastes 'or opposite tharaeteristios of temperament as to the' circumstanee, that they virtually grew up together. Theirs was no sudden. romance after a brief acquain- tance.
