Bojidar Pouritch Continues as Chief Of Serbian Legation (Continued from First Page) réer. Naturally he served under Serbian colors when the World War opened with the invasion of that tiny country by the Austrian army. He had been & student in Belgrade and Paris, and hav- ing graduated at the university of the latter city, ha had remained to take his LL.D. when his peaceful stucient life was rudely interrupted by the call to arms. It was on the lovely island of Corfu, that the charge d'affaires began his diplomatic carcer in the Serbian foreign office. It will be re- membered that the Serbian govern- ment, driven out of its own land by the early victorles of the Teutonjc forces, found refuge on this charmiifg isle of the Aegean Sea, well known to all travelers as the seat of one of the most beautiful palaces of the world, that of the former Kaiser Wilhelm II. Here the hard-pressed King Alexander and his faithful ministers set up a modest government and they called to their aid the best trained and most de- pendable young men in the army. M. Pouritch had served on a mission to Russia, during the interim after the fall of the Kerensky government and his knowledge of many tongues and of the diplomacy of the neighboring countries, started him at once on a successful diplomatic career. In the early Winter while serving the ministry of state in Belgrade, M Pouritch was married to Mlle. Dara Pachitch, daughter of one of the most beloved and most capable men in Serbia, M. Nikola Pachitch, who during varying periods has been prime minister of the country for nearly 30 years. The wedding in the Greek Orthodox Ca- thedral, took place with brilliant cere- monial, was_attended by King Alex- ander and Queen Marie—daughter of Marie of Rumania and strongly re- sembling that famous beauty—and the entire court and diplomatic and official world of Belgrade. After remaining for a brief time in their home in the Ser- bian capital, M. Pouritch took his bride to Rome, where they remained until Spring when he was transferred to Washington. The official and social world had dispersed before this notable young couple took up their residence at 1520 Sixteenth street, in the hand- some former home of Senator Bailey of :flex“ht tg";le sorbilan ggv;mmenl has ug! property an as equi] the house superbly with fine :qusp:eng the native furniture of the kingdom and many splendid tapestries sent from Belgrade. M. and Mme. Pouritch, since coming to the legation, have added many beautiful objects of thelr own including royal autographed photos and of many of Serbia's political world, When Mme. Pouritch’s health is more fully restored, this beautiful foreign home undoubtedly will be one of the most hospitable and active among the European legations. . M. Pouritch and his wife are members of the Greek Or- thodox Church and though they have regularly attended the local chapel of that denomination, they have made frequent visits to New York City to en.. joy the 1m“v%1f‘;;s mualkc and splendid ceremonies which mark Sy holy days. s b —he Engagement to Wed Announced at Dance Mrs. S.
