SO CIETY THE SUNDAY STAR, WASHING1'ON. D. Tales of Wéll Known Folk In Social gnd Offi_cial Life Cordial Relations of Nations Exemplified by Ambassador and Senora de Padilla at Recent Brill EY MARGARET B. DOWNING. The Spanish Ambassador and Senora @e Padilla followed the new order in thelr lavish entertainment of the at- ve young daughters of the Am- sador to Madrid and Mrs, Ogden 1. It may be said t 1 and intimate relatio tween the diplomatists sent to ‘Washington by Ki Alfonso and those dispatched from Washington began witl the genial Mr. Alexander Moore. Mr Mocre gained the friendship and admiration of the Spanish monarch al- most from the moment of meeting. and when the Ambassador found difficulty m securing a home the King promptly invited him to the palace. Mr. Moore found less difficulty in negotiating with owners of mansions from such & vantage and soon he had sccured an embassy worthy of the Nation. Mr. Hammond was treated just as cordially, and though he and his family were not housed in the palace, they had the furnished home of a court official at their disposal until they. too, had found what they deemed appropriate for their purpose. Time was when the most formal relations held between diplo- and the heads of the nations to h they were accredited. In Wash- ton a visiting envoy might expect & dinner from the representative of the country to which he was accredited. and this filled all the idcals of what was the requisite courtesy. Now, how- ever. when an ambassador or minister grrives at the Capital he may expect to gite cvery moment not otherwise occupied to the amenities which will be planned in his honor. In London the ‘Ambassador and Mrs. Houghton are invited very frequently to have tea or a quiet dinner at Buckingham Palace. Mr. Hugh Gibson and his wife, both old friends of King Albert and Qucen Filizabeth, are almost part of the fam- Iy circle. ing ¥ x % The Canadian Minister, Mr. Vincent Massie, to his great regret. was com- pelied to miss the opening of the Forty- fifth Provincial Winter Fair at Ontario, which was held in the small town of Guelph curing the last two weeks_of January. Winter is welcomed in On- tario as a friend and not drem}ed as en enemy, the genial representative of the Dominion suggests, and as it stays put and does not trail off into ‘Srl:mmer r a mild Spring, sports are :nd the schedule holds. The Agricul- tural College of Ontario is the seat of the fair. and recently a horse show has Gded to the attractions, with tht that some inroads have been n the entries in the Southern re- gorts. Many. famous Kentucky horse treeders took their prize steeds to On- tario and, it is said, with good results. Dr. W. J. R. Fowler, who is a men:ber of the faculty of the Onterio Agricul- tural College and one of the best known n in the Dominion, managed .

Light walnut and mahogany are among the popular woods used. and it {is possible to buy such articles as side- boards, tables, chairs and bedroom suites which would seem to have been done in Florence or Venice in the gold- fen age of decorative art. Figures | carved perfectly stand out in bold re- lief of the furniture, and often ham- mered bronze and silver surround these carvings with gilt and mother of pearl added. President Machado’s guest rool is furnished with a splendid suite, taken from an old French palace, and much of the adornment of the separate pleces is of bronze, silver and gold. Mrs. Cool- idge, her friends intimate. has a list of places she wishes to revisit when times are more leisurely, and Havana is to be one of these. i The Countess of Iveagh has followed the example of Lady Astor and made | a successful bid for the seat vacated by her husband in the Commons when that gentleman as earl entered the Lords. Britain is inclined to make the outcry that too many women are capturing seats in Parliament, but in Dublin_the House of Guinness, of whom the Earl | of Iveagh is the head, is well en- trenched in favor and its people appre- | ciate how much has been done for them |in the material sense. The Countess | of Iveagh is the daughter of the Earl of Onslow, and she had an acknowl- edged prestige as a political hostess during her husband's service in the |Commons. Her brother-in-law. Mr. Walter Guinness, !s the secrctary of | agricuiture in Mr. Baldwin's cabinet and |15 well known to tillers of the soil all Ithe world over.
