New-York tribune., June 06, 1915, Page 3, Image 49 chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn83030214/1915-06-06/ed-... calls her a "candy girl" not a "cigarette girl." She is Miss Mary Woodward. This is the 1915 garden party at Governors Island in aid of the Army Relief Society.

His wikipedia entry: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General_Leonard_Wood His wife, Louise Adriana Wood (1869-1943), was also quite active politically. Here's their tombstone at Arlington: www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=pv&GRid=904345... They had two children, Osborn Cutler Wood (1897-1950), and Louise Barbara Wood (1900-1960).

They appear on a page of photos of the 1915 Governors Island Garden Party in the New-York tribune., June 06, 1915, [Page 3, Image 49] chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn83030214/1915-06-06/ed-... Mrs. Wood is in same outfit, so this is presumably another in the batch from this event.
