Washington (U.R) It cost the
Nicholses about $133 to pay
their r-nrt to the Trumans.
We got the
little engraved
invitation sent
out to all cor
r e s pondents,
saying "T h e
President and
Mrs. Truman
at home on
W e d n e sday
afternoon, May
7, 1952, at five
Harmon Nichols o'clock."
Mrs. Tru
man mailed them direct to the
homes, addressed to "Mr. and
Mrs." That's when it started to
cost money, .
No self-respecting wife would
think of eating cookies and sip
ping orange punch with the first
man and lady of the land in an
outfit left over from some other
shindig.
So my wife, like some others,
went on a shopping spree and
came home with things new
from the girdle out.

will meet in Butte Falls Thurs
day, May 15, in the home of

Mrs. Malloy and Mrs. W. P.

living in Butte Falls, having
been coming to Medford to at

several months.
Most of the bills are in now
and my expense account for a
two-hour wrestle with protocol
reads about like this:
Dress $50.00; girdle $19.00;
shoes $25.00; slip $9.00, hat
$22.50; gloves $7.50; total
$133.00.
I didn't put down an outfit
for the old man. I wore the .old
gray rag I bought last fall.
But I guess it was .worth the
price to stand a spell under the
White House chandeliers and
rub silk and satin with the high

Felt Almost at Home
Guests were stampeded
through the first two floors of
the re-built White House which
costs us taxpayers over $6,000,
000. It made a man feel almost
at home.
Howell Crim, the chief usher,
told us what we already knew
that the second and third floors
were private; the home of the
official family. Mrs. T's new
pushbutton kitchen also was out
of bounds. So was Mr. Truman's
fancy sitting porch the balcony
which caused quite a stir around
town when the President decid
ed to build it. The Chief never
would let anybody else sit on it,
anyhow.
As we stood in line ready to
shake hands, a smartly dressed
young Army officer came up and
down the row, blushed a little
and whispered to each man
"Men first, please. Protocol . . .
General Vaughan Will introduce
you to the President and Mrs.
Truman."
