SOCIAL TRIUMPH FOR “HOT DOG"
SERVED TO THEIR MAJESTIES PICNIC ON ROOSEVELT ESTATE NEW YORK, 11th June. After Their Majesties had attended a church service in Hyde Park, a plebian but succulent “hot-dog” later this afternoon enjoyed its greatest social triumph. Their Majesties ate one apiece—si* thered with mustard and served on a hot roll —and said that they like it “very much.” It was a triumph for both the “hot-dog” and Mrs Roosevelt, who had feuded mildly with the President’s mother regarding whether such' a “vulgar” dish should be served. Beneath a blazing sun, moderated by a refreshing breeze from the shimmering Hudson river, a picnic was held on the lawn of the Roosevelt estate with 140 guests. It was arranged that Their Majesties, after the picnic, should have five hours to do as they pleased, following which they would depart just before midnight by their train for Halifax (Nova Scotia) and the voyage homeward. Besides frankfurters, soda, iced tea and beer, hum and turkey, salads, baked beans on bread, doughnuts and cookies were served at the picnic.
