regions where every eventuality
of the pioneer mother hud to be
provided against, worked at trans
lating and copying, and met the
exactions of foreign and American
social seasons, all the while finding
her greatest pleasure in her own
family circle.
In those early days in California
when Herbert Hoover was a senior
in I-oland Stanford university at
J'ato Alto, and .Miss Lou Henry was
a freshman and the blue skies,
rolling foothills and the whisper
ing eucalyptus trees of the campus
helped to stimulate a friendship
which soon ripened to an enduring
romance, little did the young engi
neer see his road to fame through
revolutions, wars and politics.
Utile did he think that his bride
would take a turn at a- machine

problems, euro for two spirited
sons and emerge with hi in as a
possible occupant of the White
House.

In all the history uf the nation's j
. executive mansion there is no men- ,
r tfon of a First Lady who has hud '

Lou Henry Hoover. Yet it did not '

hard work, and even drudgery, i
Young Herbert brought to 'the ;

and tenacity of purpose. A Quaker

a charmed life. Serving tea, dodg

the biirrels with which to sweeten
it. and r.-itioning the tuod. left liule
opportunity for her to worry over
her life.
Today Mrs. Hoover fs a bit
amused when anyone talks Of food
conservation. It is like asking a
man thrown overboard how he
learned to swim that is. if he does
learn, and is saved by his own
exertions. There in China it win

lesson in saving and learning how
to make a little go a long way -and

After the foreign troops had ar

leaguered g.trrison of white peopb
in I'eking. .Mrs. Hoover was shown
a newspaper which printed her
obituary on the information sent
by the lioxers that they had killed
her.
"There were three columns uf it,

cumftidoshlp. )"'' y eventuality in tin
Immediately after their mar- i rearing of her two boys, i
rlagc Mrs. Hoover was confronted "
with her first grout decision. Her j
husband was given the opportunity ;
of going to China to examine min- j
lug properties. The region which
he was lo explore was coin para-
lively unknown. It was difficult I
of access and offered tin comforts
and every inennvrniene. i
Kven at that lime the Manchu
rule uf China was crumbling. ,
There wn talk of revolution, j
"Foreign devils" should be thrown
out of the Celestial Kingdom, '
shouted the reactionaries. The trip t
promised discomfort, and even I
danger.
Mrs. Hoover did not hesitate.
Then, as later, she answered ;
"Ready!' The possibility of stay
ing at home with friends to await (
her husband's return did not tempi :
her. Her place, she said, was with ;
him and she was going along. (
Not lN'(erial by Warnings j
Once In t 'hlna, again the road
branched. Long - time residents
pointed out to the couple the folly
of both going to the interior. j
The bride wanted to be with her
husband, yet she was naturally j
concerned with a thousand fore- j
bodings, not the least having to do
with life in a new country and the'
breaking rules where people say.
"That thing Just Isn't done. (u
know," Hul she went. It was her
definite choice. Iirt. naked natives, :
life unknown did not daunt her.
She was a partner and her pbice,
she decided, was with him. If her
husband could stand It, she could.
And she did. m
