In her off hours Content Peckham indulges her fancy for unusual headgear. At present she is in proud possession of an elegant feathered number which one of our correspondents brought from Paris, a man's Amish hat from Pennsylvania, and a igth Century Russian sea otter and black seal boyar hat once worn by a Chinese diplomat on a mission to Moscow. She also has an unquenchable enthusiasm for harness racing, auctions and gardening ("nothing fancy—just flowers for cutting, although I do grow a little broccoli on the terrace"). One of her problems is people who ask how she pronounces Content. Her standard reply: "Like an adjective."

Cordially yours,
