next to Mother verified my judgement as to who people were and told us that the minister was Rev. Mackay Smith. It was Palm Sunday and the service was beautiful - especially the singing (surpliced choir) and the harp and organ music. The little Roosevelts went out before the sermon and Mrs. President just before the last hymn (to avoid the public gaze, I suppose.) We took a little stroll after church (past Mark Bunnell's flat - but didn't go in.) (It was warm as June) and went again to the Carrollton to dinner - as a sort of a joke. The dinner was good enough but forever coming - so we let the place alone after that. We went to the Corcoran gallery after dinner and found a good & many interesting pictures, bronzes (Barye's) and statues, including the Washington Society of Artists temporary Exhibit (with the Julia Marlowe portrait by Irving Wiles) and a number of pictures we saw at the "Pan". I was disappointed not to see the models of "New Washington" but they had been taken to the Congressional Library and are not yet on exhibition there.
