IN OFFICIAL AND SOCIAL LIFE (Continued from Sixth Page.) tesy from the resident British con- tingent. Mrs. Legh, in addition to leading a' notable social wing in the British metropolis, is, with Lady Cur- zon, a special hostess to the South- rons. who have been so conspicuous in London recengly. She and Mrs. John W. Davis, wife of the former ambas- sador, became good friends. and she will Visit the Davis home in South- ampton before sailing for England. During the past week the great his- terical seat and estates of the Dukes of Buckingham and Chandos passed under the hammer of the auctioneer to some obscure munition profiteer, and, in the territorial sense, this cele- brated hoyse, so associated with Shakespedre's Henrys, has passed out. Some of the liberal journals of Lon- don recall the famous speech of Pre- mier Llovd George wherl he was mak- ing his bitter. fight against the veto power of the house of lords and the prophetic utterance that a well- equipped English duke cost the nation as much as a dreadnaught, and that both were obsolete and useless in the present scheme of things. The per- sistent battle which the premier has waged for twenty years against the | hereditary lawmaker is among the why the American public is ious to view this intrepid Welsh an at close range. For the esthetic thc breaking up of the splendid homes of England is deeply regretted, but for the future of the | nation there is no dissenting voice | about its practical value. The Buck- ingham estates will become a series of farms, which will be purchased by the hereditary tenants on long-term | payments. Woodlands will be cleared by the ducal estate, and then, fol- {lowing the natural order, will first | be given over to the dairyman and | later to the agriculturist, as the pro- { gram has been in the vast forests of | Canada and the northwest United States, which have been redeemed ifrom the wilderness. | Should the British premier decide to come to the conference right on the I heels of the Christmas holidays it is! wonderful Christmas this could only afford to have For folks like you, our Christmas Club pre- family would accompany him. Christmas has a deep significance in the ( older world and few mothers of familles . would willingly absent themselves {rom | the home at this time. There are obli- gations which cannot be delegated to. the poor in the immediate-vicinity and to the entire class coming under that sad designation. Then there are special feasts, religious and civic, and Mrs. George has adhered rigidly to the an- cient laws of hospitality and benevolence which are as old as the Welsh race. It may be, however, that the sprightly young daughter, Miss Megan George, will be with her father. She is his in- &eparable companion on his holidays and despite the grinding duties which con- front him"on his visit to Washington, the premier is determined to get some relaxation out of it. Miss George is a famous danseuse, being accepted as tho foremost interpreter of the mative dances of the Welsh. She is always in demand during the London season, and, being young and gracious, it is mare than likely that she will accept invita- tions to show her art, if she should come to Washington. She has a won- derful variety of ancient Welsh cos- tumes and of very venerable clog shoes worn in_her solo dances. The Countess of Annesley, the guest of Mrs. Grafton Minot for the past week, Who was, with her close friend and co-worker, the Marchioness of Donegal, visiting Gen. and Lady Byng at Rideau House, Ottawa, and later of the governor of British Columbia, is among the well known public women of Great Britain, and has been a member of the feminist party from its inception. The present Larl of Annesley, who is the ninth in line, | succeeded his cousin, Francis Annes- ley, who was one of the first victims of 'the air - war around Lille. The earl was killed while in command of the aerial force of that beleagued city, and fell within the enemy lines on” November 5, 1914. He left three daughters, and the title went to his cousin, who is a captain in the Royal Fusiliers and continues his military service, despite his improved for- tunes. This present earl has likewise | three qaughters, all of whom are | married, and the title on his demise will go to a collateral braneh. Lady Annesley was Miss Maude Fleming | Higginson, "daughter of Honorable Haynes Brigham Higginson of Shel- don Hall, Deal, and she was married to the then Capt. Annesley in 1890. The earl's seat is Winton, Hants. The Annésleys have a long associa- tion with the National Provincial would be if we a player-piano?” B g R off Piccadilly. “They are a of the great old house of Annesley at Valencia Island, off the southernmost portion of Ireland. The countess has a pleasant personality and an abun- dant gift for witty, tactful conversa- tion. She is.on her way_ home to Wintdn aftér passing\ the autumn in Canagda and this country. Her friend, the Marchioness of Donegal, after a visitjto Mrs. Edson Bradley here and Mrs. Herbert Shipmran in New York, wilbgail with her. Photos of the three lovely children of the Honorable Frederick Lionel Guest and his wife, who was Miss Amy Phipps of Pittsburgh, have just been received by friends here, and, gropped much after the way of Sir Jophua Reynolds, the picture is in every way admirable. The photos are taken from the excellent oil painting made during the past month by Am- brose McEvoy of New York. Mrs. Guest, though but one generation re- moved from Scotch ancestors, is de- votedly American, and, with the en- tire, approval of Mr. Guest, who is the - minister ‘of the air service in Lloyd-George’s cabinet, the young- sters are being educated by compe- tent American teachers. There are two boys, Winston Frederick Church- i1l and Raymond Richard, and a small girl, all fluff and curls, called Henri- etta Cornelia. The Guests intend to pass all the autumns and as much of the spring and summer at Roslyn as they can snatch away from London while Mr. Guest remains in public life, "but the . children will live in Long Island with an elderly relative and Be spared the miseries of a twice- a-year ocean journcy. They are the cousfns of the present senator from Colorado, and may be his guests dur- ing the coming holiday season. An' interesting scribe about to de- seend on Washington is Capt. Bruce Stirling Tngram, editor of the Illus- trated London News, the Sketch and that weekly so devoted to depicting beauty the world over, thc Lady's Pictorfal. But Capt. Ingram is not In pursuit of subjects or news of any sort, but bent on getting some con- genial companions for a fishing trip with he proposes off the shores of Florida. He and the late Senator Knox often met in these waters, and occasionally some of the other states- men and some of the officials of the British embassy could be lured oft by visions of the ‘mighty tarpon to be hooked near the reefs. However, he stands a slim chance to secure any such just now, unless indeed the in- ternational conference ecnds by the middle of the month or declares a holiday over Christmas, The Ingrams have been celebrated for four gen- erations as followers of Izaak Wal- ton _as much so as for their ventures in fllustrafed weeklies. The grand- father of the present owner of the trio of papers, Mr. Herbert Ingram, while on a visit to Chicago to view some innovations in fllustrated jour- nalism, went on a fishing trip with some friends and was drowned in Lake Michigan. So many of the diplomats now sta- tioned in Washington have the pleasant habit of contributing to American magazines that a knowledge of their country is to be gotten at first hand and combined with a hizh entertainment. The Italian ambassa dor, who stands for agricultural liter: ture in his sunny land as much as Mr. Wailace or the former secretary of agriculture. Edwin Meredith, does in this, has recently written a fascinating picture of bucolic progress in the land of Virgil, showing how intensely his countrymen cultivate the soil and how sKilfully they unite utility and beauty. some amazing figures about produce in a small area and how it compares with that vielded to American farmers in an almost countless number of acres.

Lady Astor, by the way, gives the interesting informa- tion that she has adopted a sort of uni- form for her appearance in the com- mons, a plain, dark blue tailored skirt with a white blouse, high collar and long white gloves. Topping this is a straw gailor of dark blue with a white band. Now, it may be noticed that the Ameri- can congresswoman, Miss Alice Robert- son, wears just what she pleases, one day one thing, one day another, but never appears on the floor in a hat or in gloves, But seemingly she does take her mission ‘as seriously as the Ameri- can who sits in the British commons. In the days when the embassy of Austro-Hungary was among the proudest and most exclusive foreign establishments in Washington. Count Francis de Byron-Kuan, the celebrat- | ed Alpine climber, was a frequent vis- ! ftor. He was an intimate friend of the voung Prince de Windischgraetz, ‘who was an attache under Baron Hen- gelmuller, and he frequently dropped by for a fortnight while en route to try the loftiest peaks of the Canadlan and American Rockies. The count gave a good account of himself dur- ing the war and fought to the last day for the survival:of the Haps- burgs, and she has, like*the landed proprietors of Hungary, lost all that ‘was value. The splendid chateau at Slevli-Porwk, near Lemberg, high in the Carpathians and the scene of royal stag and boar hunting parties in the dark ages, had been in his fam- ily for more than 1,000 years, but by the decrees of Paris passed its title to Rumania and he has not hitherto been able even 'to revisit his old home. The count was frequently the host of Mark Twain during the hu- morist’s tramps in the Carpathians, and more recently he placed his castle at the disposal of the Perry Belmonts while they were seeking a summer residence in the Hungarian high- lands. In the crowded moments of the modern’ woman’s day, the gown which requires the least time and attention, and yet looks tri is the one which will bring rich rewards to its creator.
