TV OMEN'S NEWS THE COURIER-JOURNAL, LOUISVILLE, THURSDAY MORNING, MAY 26, 1949. SOCIETY SECTION 2 Private citizens owe debt of gratitude to servants like Forresial MY DAY Garden-Warming Was Given the Weber Gty friends brought plants, bulbs, and did all the work By Katherine T.

Tommy Bullitt, will have as guests at his Oxmoor home, Burford Danner, Indianapolis, and Gilford Dudley, Nashville. Other prominent followers of this sport, who will attend the equine and social events, are Eugene Harris, Nashville; O. de Gray Vanderbilt, Jr.

Cincinnati, master of the hounds at the Camargo turf, any kind of race interests a true Kentuckian until he is laid under the turf. Parties Begin Today A nonprofit organization, formed to encourage amateur racing, the Oxmoor Steeplechase is part of the Midwest Circuit, Lowry Watkins, president of the association, said. With admission charges small, there is great need stay with Mr. and Mrs. June Cronan.

Visitors and guests will need to be in good racing form for the full social calendar. Tonight at their home in Skylight, Barbara and Lowry Watkins will entertain at dinner. Dinner will be at 6 p.m. tomorrow night at the Country Club, for owners, riders, patrons, and friends. Movies of last year's Oxmoor races will be shown.

A luncheon will be given on Saturday by Miss Paxton Hickman, and a cocktail party by the June Cronans after the steeplechase. There are other probable entries, with "no over-weights," on the social program. Oxmoor, scene of Saturday's racing, is the estate of Mr. and Mrs. William Marshall Bullitt, located on the Shelbyville Road (U.

S. 60), 2z miles east of St. Matthews. FROM ARIAS to airs, opera-trained Senora Concha Michel has sung and strummed her way into being Mexico's leading folklorist. "Mexicophiles" had the pleasure of hearing her native music yesterday, following a luncheon at the Arts Club.

Her musical interest was transferred from opera to native Mexican ballads, which she sings and plays on her guitar. Mrs. Eleanor Mercein Kelly was hospitality chairman of the luncheon. Her collection of ballads, ante dating the era of Cortez, numbers about 10,000. A singing example of the good-neighbor policy, Senora Michel always dresses in her national costume.

While visiting in this country, she collects American songs to take home and promotes exchange of American and Mexican students. She is the guest of another noted ballad singer, Bookie Taylor, and Mrs. Taylor, Bagdad, Ky. 44TT1 pw does your garden grow? is a popular question with Mr and Mrs. Fred P.

Weber, Jefferson-town, since friends gave them a garden-warming not long ago. It was along the same idea as a housewarming, Mrs, Weber explained, except that the surprise party was of benefit to their new garden instead of the recently completed ranch farmhouse, Denny Brook. All of a sudden on a recent Saturday afternoon, their city friends appeared, laden with shrubs, plants, bulbs, and their own working equipment. It was a beautiful sight to behold their hillside garden swarming with so many eager-beavers, setting out their own contributions from individual baskets, the Webers said. Also Brought Supper The Webers' son, Pvt.

William Weber, chaplain's assistant at Fort Knox, and their daughter, Peggy, who, with Sara Moss Phillips owns a farm near by, happened to be home for the occasion. The guests also took a buffet supper which was served in the summerhouse on a near-by lake. Fishing, boating, and dancing were less strenuous forms of entertainment which followed the planting. Now that the Webers are enjoying the beautification of their garden, painlessly acquired, they feel that it is a blooming good idea to pass on to others. More Racing Due More, horse racing, different and cheaper, is in store this week end, when the Kentucky Hunt and Steeplechase Assoc iation holds its fifth annual race meeting at Oxmoor Saturday afternoon.

LIBERTY LOUISVILLE, KY. By Eleanor NEW YORK No one can have heard of Mr. Forrestal's death without a feeling of deep tragedy. He was still in the prime of life and one felt that years of activity in business and intermittent public service lay before him. We, the private citizens, must be grateful to all the men who carried heavy burdens during the war and suffered in consequence.

He bore the burdens of the days of the war and those since the war. No man in public life in this country is immune from criticism and Forrestal had hio share. Some of us, however, have learned to weigh a man's achievements, regardless of what may be said about him by his critics during his period of public activity. The tragedy, of course, is that he could not have been saved from himself until he was well again. But perhaps he felt that for him the best years of life had been lived, for as one looks back over one's life I think it is the hardest years that one thinks bring the greatest reward.

To his family we would like to extend our sympathy and express once again an appreciation of a public service well performed. NEW YORK CITY on Monday welcomed President Dutra of Brazil, and I am sure that everyone who meets him will express thanks for the way in which Brazil co-operated with the United States during the years of the war. Anyone who visited northern Brazil, as I did in 1944, will always feel there is a special tie between that country and the United States. We understood some of Brazil's problems; we know some of the potential strengths that lie ahead as her country is gradually opened up and new settlers come to develop it. I hope that President Dutra's I visit to this country will take To obtain this pattern send 20 CENTS to The Courier-Journal Pattern Depart ment using coupon below.

Too many of our visitors see only these two cities and never really know what this country is like. I THINK IT is a good thing that it is part of the American way of life to honor among our citizens those whom we greatly admire.

It gives us a chance to tell the young what the qualities are that win for a man recognition and admiration in his old age. I would have liked to have been at the dinner the other night when the gold medal of the Williamsburg Settlement in Brooklyn was presented to Bernard M. Baruch for service to humanity. This medal is given annually to the person "who best typifies the American way of life and aids the underprivileged." Mrs. Max Kleinfeld, settlement president, who bestowed the medal on Mr.

Baruch, particularly mentioned his work on behalf of war veterans both in the field of physical medicine and in the aid to the deaf. Our congratulations go to Mr. Baruch, though as a matter of fact the Williamsburg Settlement really deserves congratulations for having found such a worthy recipient of their award.
