Until now she has been silent on the dramatic scenes attending the first days of the war. Until now she has not told what went on in the Cabinet and official circles during 1915-19. Here is the sensational story with names, datesand places, intimate letters and confidential memoranda. The only figure she does not call by name is the mysterious ‘“MR.

Tuesday—Almas Temple Shrine carni- v ge night. The M ROBABLY the greatest Shrine event ever attempted In Wash- ington, and certainly one of the most gorgeous in point of deco- rations, {lluminations and varfety of entertainment, opened at Conventlon Hall last evening. It is called the Shrine Circus and Arabian Fete and is being given by Almas Temple in behalf of the fund for the entertain- ment of the Shriners who will attend the big session of the Imperial Coun- cil tn Washingtcn the first weel in June of 1923. It will run daily, ex- cept Sunday, to and including Satur- day, December 16. The clrcus por- tion of this mammoth entertainment in famous in Shrine cities. Last vear, in San Francisco, thousands were turned away unable (o secure admission, and it was estimated that nearly u quarter of a million people saw the show. Almas Temple how- ever, I8 seeking to outdo San Fran- . and, in addition to the circus, ch is really a genuine, high-class show, p ting circus acts of na- tional reputation and acts of the hizhest caliber on a mammoth stage, it has added the Arabian Fete attrac- tion, 50 that in all there will be ap- proximately fifty other attractions in the form of specialties, novelties and attractions of the first rank. The purpose of this stupendous enter- talnment is to enable the general public to contribute as generously as it may please toward the fund for the visiting Shriners nesxt year, and at the same time to get fuli value in the way of enterfainment and amuse- ment for the #mount contributed. Almas Temple, along with the keener sighted citiztns of Washington, has foreseen that the festivities con- nected with the session of the Im- perial Council of the Mystlc Shrine of North America next June will make or unmake the reputation of Washington as a convention city, if. indeed, it does not affect the civic aspirations of the Nationa] Capital. At least 300,000 nobles of the Mystic Shrine and their friends and fami will attend the convention. These men are the pick of Freemasonry not only in the United States but in Canada well. The storles of their visit carried back to other homes in every part of the country will mean much to Washington. Hence the deep Interest in the effort to make the conventlon, from every point of view the greatest in Shrine history. Al- ready Imperial Potentate James . McCandless, whose home is In far- oft Honolulu, has expressed surprise at the magnitude and magnificence of the plans that are being laid by Illustrious Potentate Leonard I Steuart and his 1923 Shrine Conven- tion Committee, and has shown & happy satisfaction over them which has prompted him to declare that Washington fs the best convention city In_the world. Almas Temple wants to maintain that reputation. and its present magnificent entertain- ment has heen provided with the hope of winning the support of the general public in enabling it to do 0. Cordial responses have been re- ceived from the various big fra- ternal orders of Washington, and many of them will have a special evening set apart for the concentra- tion of thelr efforts. Tuesday evening will be “Blue Lodge” night, and Grand Master Coombs of the Grand Lodge of Magons of the Dis- trict_has asked all Masons of or in the District to join the big_parade that will proceed from Masonic Temple that evening to Convention Hall for one of the biggest nights of the affair. The Almas Glee Ciub accompanied its potentate to the ceremonial ses- sion of Acca Temple in Richmond Wednesday evening and gave the Virginla Shriners an illustration of its splendid capabilities. At the short form ceremonia] last Tuesday evening a member of Con- gress-elect “got his” by request of his home temple. He, like the other congressman who established his “Arabic fortitude” at the recent cere- monial at the President Theater, al- though a little “surprised,” had no complaint to offer at the close of having been denied anything Almas Temple could give him. Almas Patrol is preparing for an- other of its dances at the New Wi lard the evening of December 20. Potentate Steuart and Willfam Mehn, chalrman of the Almas wel fare and charity committee, are urg. ing the nobles to send in the names of worthy cases for Christmas re- llef and good cheer and have told them that there is no creed, color or politics in Almas charity. Baskets will be distributed as usual, and there will be special festivities for the chil- dren and for the unfortunate friends at Blue Plains, Va. Chairman Mehn has been urging those who have overlooked making their returns for tickets for the charity excursion dur- ing the summer to brush up their memories. The more money in hand the cheerier will be somebody's Christmas. “Park Your Camel With Uncle Sam’l” has been adopted as the Shrine_slogan for the 1923 conven- tion. It was chosen out of 4,000 more or less by Imperial Potentate Mc. Candless, Potentate Steuart and rep- resentatives from the local newspa- pers. Sam Ford aged twenty, an em- ploye of the State Department, thought it out and recelved the prize of $50 for his brain work. Sam isn't a Shriner or even a Mason. “Call Me Henry” Lansburgh is feel- ing very happy over his election to ‘honorary membership in S8yria Tem- By the author of “I Have Only Myself to Blame” BALLOONS Elizabeth Bibesco Stories that float, light and beautiful, over the poignant moments of our lives.

December 27 is St. John's Day, when the Grand Lodge will meet and ‘elect its officers, so that the con- stituent lodges must have completed their elections and installations in time for that event.
