It vai a pretty compliment and a
very great pleasure to the Daugh
ters of the American Revolution to
have Mr. Taft with them at the re
ception at which Mrs. Phinlzy and
Mrs. Cummlng entertained Thurs
day afternoon at the Country Club.
Mr. Taft's popularity with Augua
tans seems to have received an im
petus (instead of abating since his
retirement from the presidential
limelight. lie has been made a
great deal of during his visit and
Augustans were most loathe to see
him go. His presence was in re
sponse to a personal invitation from
Mrs. Phlnlzy and he made a charm
ing little talk to the Daughters, paid
graceful tribute to the bright, brainy
women, nnd spoke feelingly of the
T«ry great pleasure that it had al
ways given him and Mrs. Taft to
entertain them during their regime
at the White House, "Hut" added
he droily, "we Won't be able to do
that any longer". One of (he visit
ors, an Atlanta woman, one
most enthusiastic admirers, voiced
her deep regret that she was only a
woman and eould not vote for him,
where upon another spoke up and
promised that in four years women
would be-voting and that she would
see that he was elected after a four
year*' rest. “No" said Mr. Taft','
when you women vote you will lie
running a woman for president?'
Rather apt, was it not? There was
a brilliant aggregation of women
presant at the Club, and doubtless it
was quite the brightest, brainiest
aggregation that had over gathered
there. The many guests, all beau
tifully gowned, which proved that
woman with sense yceil not be dow

PRESIDENT’S WIFE HAS
MANY APPETIZING RECIPES
Brought Them From South, Where She Obtained Them
From Mother and Orouchester.
The wife of the president of the
United State* has frequently said that
she Is a homemaker, and not a
housekeeper; that she believes in
comfort and ha* made It a practice
all her life to study the needs and
the desires of those around her and
never sacrifice them to household
gods.
The Wilson homo at Princeton and
the summer capital Sea Girt re
flected this feminine faculty of mak
ing home livable and luxurious, and
at the same time scruplously cared
for. Mrs. UsWon Is a southerner
and has Inherited the southern wo
man’s ability to go Into the kitchen
and prepare a dish that puts her cook
to the blush. She has a natural
knack of surrounding herself and her
family with the refinements of liv
ing that can bo acquired only by the
personal touch, and she Is not afraid
of any task that will make her home
a mort comfortable and attractive
spot for those with whom she lives.
Many of Mrs. Wilson’s cherished
recipes have been Inherited from
her mother and grandmother, and
she tells of herself that her penchant
for cockles dates hack to the time
when, as a little girl, she conceived a
fondness for the cookey Jar that was
kept on the pantry shelf In her
southern home. She brought with
her to the north the formulas for
the cookies that tasted so good when
she was young, and her children al
ways had access to them In their
school days.
It Is predict** dby those who know
Mr*. Wilson Intimately that she will
carry her housewifely genius with her
to Washington, and that In the
white house she will not hesitate
about carrying out her old domestic
program.
Here are some of her recipes:
Cookies and Ginger Bread Nutt.
Walnut Cookies: Cream 1 cupful
of butter with 1 1-2 cupfuls of sugar:
add 3 beaten eggs. Put 2 cupfuls of
chopped walnut meats into 1 cupful

aad add 1 1-2 cupfuls of flour to
