Senator's Wife Finds Time to Write Book Describing Life in Washington

Frances Parkinson Keyes Knows What Folks Back Flome Want, By HORTENSE SAUNDERS NEA Service Writer r—TjYSHINGTON, July 25.—1n VY/ the midst of social duties ’’ in Washington and responsibilities as the wife of a politician and the mother of three sons, Frances Parkinson Keyes finds time for the career she has always cherished —that of an author. Her latest book. “Letters From a Senato's Wife,” would save the woman who contemplate? living in Washington or taking any part in official life, many embarrassments and prepare her intelligently for what is to come. When her husband, the Senator from New Hampshire, entered upon his official duties in Washington, Mrs. Keyes found herself facing a job just as new and trying as his —that of being a Senator's wife. Folks “Back Home” She recounts her first experiences with the utmost candor and does not hesitate to. mention her first faux pas as well as her triumphs. Her series of Utters gives a verv interesting sketch of social life in Washington. She maintains a constant appreciation of the advantages of Washington society, a kindly tolerance for all its formalities and seems never to forget what the folks back home want to hear about. “Because,” she told me very frankly, “I know what it is to live in the country, more or less cut off from people who seem to be doing things and having an exciting life. The first years of my married life were spent that way. . "I know what a mother wants to read in those few minutes after the last baby has been put to bed and the hbusehold duties have been brought to the point where they may*' be safely deferred and carried over to the next day. Mother’s Viewpoint ‘*T know what it is to carry about in my head all sorts of and plots that you simply haven’t got time to get down on paper. “In other words, I’ve been a lonesome, sometimes very discouraged and overworked housewife, with apparently nothing ahead but more of the same. Now that I have a chance to participate in a broader and more exciting life, I want to share it with those who don’t.” Mrs. Keyes already has done considerable fiction and is a public speaker of much ability. She knows politics thoroughly and undoubtedly could have a spectacular career in politics if she wanted to. But she prefers to write. "One politician In a family Is enough.” she says. “Being the wife of a politician is a job by itself. You could scarcely com- j bine the two.” DOCTORS DROP DIGNITY Methodist Hospital Society Picnics at Ross Home "I didn’t know some of those doc- \ tors were so lively,” Mrs. David j Ross said Friday", as she described j antics of members of the Medical Research Society of the Methodist Hospital Thursday evening. The society held its annual picnic, at the home of Dr. and Mrs. Ross, in Bonnie Brae, on White River. Two hundred fifty doctors, nurses and doctors’ wives attended. A river trip was taken on the Sunbeam. Prizes were given for races, swimming feats and other athletic contests. .Dr. H. A. Walker headed the arrangements committee.

Trouble With Dad Pear Mies Lee: I have been going- with a fellow and he got peeved over nothing. My father told him I eoulij not go out in automobiles. My father has a hateful way of speaking, and the fellow thought he citant I could not go with him. Father said I could go with him. when it was too late. Father asks for an apology. Please tell mo what to do to get his friendship back. BETTY. You give me no hint of w-hat this young man may have said, that your father should demand an apology. Without knerwing that, I cannot advise you about winning back his friendship. REPENTANT: I’m glad you changed your mind; your second idea was the right one. If your mother demands proof, get these boys to "testify” in your behalf. That should satisfy her. As for the gossips, ignore them. If you conduct yourself so that you know you do not deserve censure, you need not worry. Difference in Love Pear Madam: 1. Is there a difference between parental love and love for a felkiw? I am 27 and never have loved a fellow and am about to give up hopes. 2. If a father truly loves a child, will he\ desert it? A father that truly loves will go through fire to be with his child, will he not? DESPAIRING- OLD MAID. 1. Women have waited longer than twenty-seven years to find love. So don’t despair. Yes, my dear, there is a difference between love for and of a parent and love for a “fellow.” Parental love does not involve the question of sex. 2. A father would not desert the child he loved.

LETTER FROM LESLIE PRESCOTT TO LESLIE PRESCOTT, CARE OF THE SECRET DRAWER, CONTINUED. Os course, little Marquise, I dropped all preparations for my party and just sat down and waited. I wonder if you know what it means to wait for the inevitable? No torture in all the world is so terrible—when you know that nothing you can do will change in any way what is corning to you, and you must wait and worry. ! I thought over carefully all the peculiar incidents that had occurred since Alice bad clasped the pearls about my neck on my wedding day. I told myself that although I had not told Jack about them, yet I myself <jid not know they were real until months afterward. Whatever I thought, however, I always came back to the fact that Jack, filled with rage, would soon be with me asking for information, and that he would probably be more furious when he learned the truth. I wondered wearily if I could go on with the party if the whole matter was not settled some way before the next night. Through all these unhappy thoughts came the question: Who could have told Jack? No one hut Karl, Alice, Ruth and myself knfcw the whole story and I am sure not one of them would have told. I was sure of Karl and Ftuth, but—surely my sister would not do such a despicable thing! The clock kept ticking, “Wait and see—wait and see—wait and see—” While 1 was trying with what patience I had to take the insistent little deck’s advice, the phone again rang. Sally Atherton was on the wire. “Say, Leslie, I don’t want to butt in on your affairs, but I just want i to put you wise to something I think you ought to know. I heard your husband telephoning you about a string of pearls. I didn’t mean to | listen, but ho was so excited he was talking at the top of his voice, and you know n'V desk is in the same room. “This morning, I opened a letter from New York that was not marked personal, and found that some scoundrel had written Mr. Prescott an anonymous letter asking him If he knew that lovely string of pearls you had been wearing was real. “Now, I don’t know whether those heads are real pearls or not, but I just wanted you to know that Mr. Prescott got his information anonymously. “I’m going to break my solemn vow and come to your party. I had not intended to do so, but I am so angry over this anonymous letter that I want you to know that if I can do anything to help you in any .way, I will do it.” Os course, I thanked Sally, and I was glad to know where Jack found it all out, but I could not help feeling unhappy that any one knew that Jack and I were quarreling. All the while she was talking to me I was wondering if it could be possible that my own sister could be so horrid as to have written a letter to Jack. I could think of no one else who knew about them who would do so. Pretty soon Jack came in and threw" a letter into my lap. (Copyright, 1924, NEA Service, Inc.) NEXT: The letter continued.
