— Bastille Day Observed At French Embassy as Jusserands VEntertain Many Informal Parties Held at Country Clubs and Roof Gardens During Past Week. Society's Ranks Depleted. SALLIE V. H. PICKETT. OCIAL interest in the capital was fittingly enough revived by the dinner at the French embassy last evening. when the ambassador and Mme. Jusserand celebrated Bastille day, a ceremony never omitted by M. Jusserand, who, being a historian himself, knows full well the value of keeping such an event fresh in the minds of the people. ‘There were numerous informal dinner partics at country clubs and on the attractive roof gardens of hotels or in oper-air dining places all week. and at every point onc was certain to meet a higher diplomat or official or some one from the ranks of smart society. S HILE each outgeing ship bears its burden of human social freight and the country, seaside-and mountain ¢ claiming more than their usual quota. to counteract the social deficit, there will return to Washington many diplomats and other important folk from the Pacific | coast, who will tarry at least long enough to get a new start. The air service officers’ dance last night for their new chief, Maj. William H. Garrison, jr., and Mrs. Garrifon, was delightfully informal, as was also the dinner-dance at the Montgomery Country Club for the benefit of the National School of Music and Operatic Art. Nor are Washingtonians at summer resorts escaping the importuning for benefit entertainments of cvery kind. Bay Shore, Long Island, has for days presented the picturesque aspect of a Dutch village, as society women and men, in costumes direct from Holland, and with a setting of windmills and other features of a Holland landscape, carried on a Dutch village for the bene- fit of the new Southside Hospital. HERE seemed something quite tangible in the return of the President and Mrs. Harding, when, Tuesday morning the Mayflower steamed | away from the navy yard and down the waters of the Potomac and into esapeake bay and the open waters of the ocean, bound for points where she will meet the presidential party on their return from Alaska and bring them back to Washington via the Panama canal. The ship is in excellent condition, but is not such a seafaring vessel as the Presi- dent should have. She is not large enough, nor is she conveniently ar- ranged for the distinguished human freight she carries. WASHINGTONIANS have found another delightful playground for social entertainment in Clifton, the old Elverson place, standing high above the city and just off Massachusetts avenue, where, on the beautiful grounds or under the shelter of the verandas, one dines in great com- fort. Clifton has been taken over by the Woman's Universal Alliance, and it was there, in April, that women from all parts of the world met and discussed erecting a great monumental building to the memory of the great women of the world. Clifton is not new in the social life of the capital, for it was there that M. Paternotre wqoed and won the charming Miss Elverson, and whenever the Philadelphia family chose to reside in the District Clifton was a notable center for society. LENVIEW FARM is another meeting place for the socially elect, Col. 1 THE SUNDAY STAR, WASHINGTON, D. Byl —_ h v X <y . Mrs ALLEN M - ._PURDETT.

With the sailing of the Belgian ambassador and Baroness de Cartier de Marchienne Wednesday and the previous departure of M. de Selys de Fanson, -counselor of the embassy, and of several of the secretaries, the usually large staff of this foreign es- tablishment was so depleted that Baron Lemaire de Warzee d’Hermalle, Belgian minister to Cuba, has been dispatched to this capital to act as charge d'affaires ‘ad interim.

The last time he was one of the delegates sent by Belgium to the disarmament congress, in 1921, and had charge of the body of ex- perts who were detailed to study the orfental question. ‘With the Baroness and Mille. Diana de Warzee, the Belglan charge d'a faires arrived in Washington about two weeks ago and at present has quarters at the Hotel Hamilton. He will probably remain in Washington all summer, though his wife and daughter_may find & cooler spot in August. Baron de Warzee is a native of Liege and was trained for the diplomatic %&ervice and has been in the harness for the past twenty-one vears. He was educated at the fine old University of Liege and later at Louvain, both institutions having suffered a tragic fate during the Ger- man invasion. He has made the round of service in all the lands with which Belgium holds friendly relations and about twenty years ago was married in London to Miss Dorothy Davis, daughter of a former New Yorker, who had taken up his residence in the British capital and where his daughter was born. Since her marriage the baroness has accompanied her husband on all his diplomatic missions and though she is deeply attached to the country of her adoption, Belgium, she has spent less than two years out of twenty in its territory. The Baroness de Warzee is of a literary trend and has already one book.to her credit and one soon to be published in Lon- don. The first is called “Peeps Into Persia,” and is the result of more than eight years of close study of Persian_customs and history, made during her husband's regime as envoy from Belgium.
