as possible, but there was a limit to
his possibilities. When the reporter
asked him what his wife would wear
at the mayor's reception he assumed a
confidential air.
"I'll tell you Just ns much as 1 know
myself." he said. "Last night she told
me she should wear white. This
morning at breakfast she said she'd
decided on her rose colored gown, and
when I said good by to her she had
spread a gray one beside the rose col
ored on one chair and her black laco
besldo the white on another and was
taking something else out of the closet.
