Seated in a $32-a-month Coolidge home in Massachusetts, the wife of the next Vice-President told what jewelry she could wear at t5he inauguration March 4, says a Boston correspondent.
“Only my engagement ring and my wedding ring.”
“I shall use a little powder on my nose, but no rouge, toilet water or perfume. I’m not particularly kean on make-up at all.
“My hair? How shall I wear my hair? The way I always wear it, you know. Just a few quirks and a hairpin.”
Then came the question of shoes, for Mrs. Coolidge has a pretty foot, size 5-B, with a conspicuous high instep.
“I have a pair of navy blue oxfords to match my inauguration gown of navy blue, broche crepe, and, of course, silk stockings to match,” Mrs. Coolidge said after searching her mind a little while for the proper thing to wear with the gown.
