to luncheon. Peoplecome to ,see her

day when she would receive guests.
The remaining hours site would then

"Itt can't he done. Either you've
got to be uninterested in them or
else you've got to see them. I've just
made up nay mind to' see them."
Mrs. Roosevelt once described her
handshake, as pliable, declaring it
