OCTOBER 2 Though Washington must resign itself to the absence of Premier during the coming conference on return of Mr. Balfour as head of another British commission and in the first visit of the distinguished man from New Brunswick, who is credited equally with his Welsh riend. with saving the British em- pire, Mr. Andrew Bonar Law.

He is exceedingly modest in his habits and it is likely he will share the home of some of the secretaries of the British embassy, who have taken time by the forelock and secured houses. ~Mr. Balfour will, however, require a large es- tablishment and Sir Auckland Geddes has many vigilant eyes out to find him the proper sort of residence. There is some rumor of the Perry Belmont's being requisitioned, as the ) owners are still abroad and plan to remain there all winter. With the exception of Lord Lee of Fareham, first_lord of the admiralty, none of the British delegates will be accom- € |panied by the ladies of their family. After the question of cjothes and | A midsummer bride, who was for-|tinont fro what constitutes modest. and im-| merly Miss Edith M. Glovanno ™ San Franclsco, beginning modest apparel, the English social world is more absorbed in the problem of what is proper and improper danc- ing. Mothers of important buds to be presented this season, among them the Countesss of lichester, chatelaine of the most famous private home in London, Holland House, have joined a coalition against the excesses r ported from Paris and other co tinental cities. The countess will pre- sent her only daughter, Lady Mary Fox Strangeways, and the event in Holland House will be the keynote of what the great hostesses es- teem as decorous and commendable. Waltzes and quick steps as of yore, waltz quadrilles and stately minuets, a few of the slow military two-steps are to be permitted, but nothing ap- proaching jazz, cake walks or shim- mies. Queen Mary has at last placed g | this matter as well as that of raiment into capable hands and henceforth all those who desire invitations to court MRS. SEBASTIAN P.

It is the Phipps Memorial Home for victims of the white plague, which stands in a deep woods of pine and cedar trees, surrounded by charming flower plots and winding paths into the seclusion beyond the reach of the sightseer. It was erected by the Rev. Willjam Henry Phipps, who had sought wider fields his activity in Pittsburgh about accompanied by his young wife, who had been Agnes McCall of Duns dee, Scotland. They were the parents of the present senator from Colorado, Lawrence Cowle Phipps. Mrs. Phipps drooped in the climate of the great iron and steel city, and her husband brought her to Colorado. hoping to restore her shattered health. He had thrived but indifferently in the new world, and was able to give his be- loved ‘invalld few of the comforts 0 1921—PART 2.’ other profitable ventures of the war by manufacturing munitions in and on the continent. sses the owners or less tores masy be adde and even the seclusion of & com- partment or a 4 ing room did not travelers. At Cann Where once only tI ry cream of European aristocracy ventured, hordes of the opulent from this side well as from Europe pre-empted the best rooms in and took over the choice places at cafes and on balcony dining rooms. They filled the beaches and their attire was appalling, so goes the tale told in many eloquent letters from abroad. All the ancient privileges of the titled have Dbeen wiped away, for the hotel proprie- tors have known several lean years and their favors are for those with rather than with Every steamer who had planned to stay in Europe all winter, but who find conditions at home much more pleasant. In Paris groups of friends have found a sort of solution by leasing in solid blocks of certain suburbs and taking over the cafes as a v{(lmla for 80 many evenings a week. Miss Emma Curtiss Tucker, former- ly professor of English at Goucher College, and frequently here when Miss Jessie Wilson, now Mrs. Francis B. Sayres, was planning relief for her alma mater, has, with Miss Myrtle King, daughter of Mr. William R. King of Georgetown, just performed the remarkable feat of walking out of the District of Columbia one early morning in late May and pulling up in Portland, Ore., about a fortnight ago. Except for an occasional lift on the way, the two young women made the entire trip afoot, and their experiences would make another ver- eion of Moore’s celebrated ballad about “Rich and rare were the gems she wore.” ~Though they passed through wildernesses and through sections which the mounted police warned them were far from safe, they met only chivalry and aid from the natives, whetrch they were white, black, red or of oriental origin. The only menacing creature they en- countered was a brown bear, near Niegan pass of Glacier Park, Mont., which, after obstructing the road for nearly two hours, trotted off to the hotel whither they were bound, and they discovered he was & pet and harmless as a kitten. Miss Tucker and Miss King will spend the winter in southern California, and perhaps may hike stralght across the con- the return trip the end of May. ‘The state authori of Nevada are making a heroic effort to redeem their commonwealth from the re- proach of divorce by endeavoring to foster the anclent domestic virtues in_their resident women.

Those who like thrills and ex- citement must cross the channel to gratify their wishes and then they must do it most carefully. As for clothes, every woman of importance in Great Britain has the queen's dic- tum about the length of skirts and the height of bodices and of what material all these may be fashioned. Though Mr. and Mrs. Cornelius Van- derbilt, jr., have established the vogue of the northwest by their overwhelm- ing enthusiasm for the shores washed by the Pacific, the Astors had discov- ered these parts at 1 150 years be- On the palisades of the Colum- bia river, just where it pours into the western ocean, is the picturesque lit- tle city of Astoria, first trading post of the first Astor, who dealt in pelts.

Senator Phipps never goes to Denver without vigiting his mother's memor- ial, and he has added many improve- ments in the years since his father passed aw until this institution, absolutely rfect in the aesthetic sense, is just as complete in sanitary equipment. The auctions at Sotheby’'s famous establishment in London this autumn have been particularly rich in manu- scripts relating to American history.

The very fore the Hudson Bay Company en- croached on his territory and finally absorbed all his privileges. This caused him to cross the continent again to New York and build up his business there, a decision which has made his descendants the richest land- owners on the American continent.
