SOCIETY NOTES 
President Taft will bring a new 
aid to Montserrat this summer. He 
is Maj. Thomas L. Rhoads, who has 
succeeded the late Maj. Archibald 
W. Butt as the president’s chief 
military aid. He was chosen from 
the medical branch of the army 
service. He is 42 years old and un- 
married, like all his predecessors. 
Serving as the president’s aid is one 
of the most exacting occupations 
known, and for that reason a bache- 
lor is invariably given the post. Un- 
til recently Major Rhoads served 
on the medical staff of the Walter 
Reed General hospital, near Bright- 
wood, a suburb of Washington city. 
His duties there naturally kept him 
from mingling much in the social 
life of the capital and restricted the 
range of his acquaintances. But 
that restriction has now been re- 
moved, and Major Rhoads is mak- 
ing friends rapidly. He has always 
been well liked in army circles. He 
is somewhat older in appearance 
than Major Butt, and has more 
gravity of manner. Major Rhoads 
has been discharging ‘‘Archie’’ 
Butt’s duties since the latter left for 
Europe several months ago. Major 
Rhoads had been assigned as the 
president’s physician, and when 
Major Butt left the president select- 
ed him to fill the aid’s post tempor- 
arily. Major Rhoads’ appointment 
was decided as soon as it became 
certain that Major Butt had perished 
in the wreck of the Titanic. 
Mrs. Levi L. Leiter informs us 
that her daughter, Lady Suffolk, 
has quite recovered from her acci- 
dent, which occurred on May 20th 
at Charlton Park, London. <A favor- 
ite hunter, she had ridden for many 
years, bolted and fell, the fall shak- 
ing Lady Suffolk violently, but no 
bones were broken. Mrs. Leiter is 
at Edgewater House, 3everly 
Farms, giving personal supervision 
to her gardens which are very fine.
