legation. Mr.. Wurtz, is Philadelphian who has
been abroad for years and who seems to care
more for advancing his own social interests
than those % Americans who visit Russia. The
legation in Berlin has a sign on the ground floor
and II Is American In every sense of the word.
Ascending TO the second floor you find
8 half dozen large rooms, all of which
are well furnished and upon the
walls of which hang portraits of
great Americans. Sir. Phelps own Office is
about twenty feet square and his desk stands
just in front Of two BLACK marble pillars on
which arc the busts of George Washington and
Frederick the Great. Between these two, one

GRAY AND WHIT

''oh. yes. gray or white can be made be-
coming to any one" replied the elderly lnstron
In answer TO question raised by The STAR
woman, .for there is the creamy gray for us
of dark compilations and the blue gray for the
bgh-er-toned sisterhood. and the same distinc-
tion can be made in the selection OF whites
creamy white or dead white, according as oae
decides which is the more becoming: and
nothing harmonizes so nicely with our time

deluded into thinking that the picture i, in

The STAR representative tried to remark that
she thought, in this particular instance ut least
it was no delusion, but the elderly matron
without paying much heed to her, except by .
dcprecatory smile, was saying:

A CONTAGIOUS HOSPITAL.
The Efforts of the Daisy Chain Guild to Es-
tablish One in the District.

The Efforts of the Daisy Chain Guild to Es-
tablish One in the District.
The recent necessity Of placing diphtheria
patient in the smallpox hospital, because there
is no place in the city where person suffering
from q contagious disease can be cared for, has
turned the attention Of the public to the pro-
posed contagious hospital for which the Daisy
Chain Guild has been working so theoretically.
This organization, composed Of hun
dred children, with Mrs. Archibald Hopkins
as treasurer, has already raised through its ef-
forts over o. SAC. II as . nucleus for fund for
the contagious hospital, and efforts are being
made to have Congress purchase a desirable
site for the building by means Of an amend
ment to the sundry civil bill. Senator Allison
now has the matter in hand and prominent cii-
zens interested in the work of the Daisy Chain
have taken pains to impress 1t upon Senators
that the proposed hospital Is In no sense to be a
charitable institution. 1t is to be for the ben
eft of public health and safety. When once a
site Is secured those interested in
the project have no fear Of its
ultimate success. They expect that when
the value Of the work Of the Daisy Chain lie
known hundreds and perhaps Thousands Of
children Of Washington Will send the annual
dues Of 81 to Mrs Archibald Hopkins 1926
Massachusetts, avenue, and become members Of
the Daisy Chain Guild. II their hopes are
realized they will zee no reason why in a COM
paratively short time all the legitimate expenses
Of the hospital cannot be met by the income Of
the Daisy Chain. At any rate, Il the site IL Sc
cured no time be lost In erecting q build
ing and Washington will soon have a contagious
hospital where any one suffering from a con-
tagious disease viii be gladly welcomed and
where he will receive the best medical treat
ment.

Members of the Turnerbund Visit the Tomb
of Washington.
Immediately after the final adjournment OF
the Turnerbund convention yesterday after
noon the delegates, accompanied by their
friends, made their way to the Mount Vernon
boat, and at 2:30 between five and six hundred
left in the Manchester for the tomb Of Washing
ton. A few minutes later as many more left in
the River Queen for Marshall Hall.
Arriving at Mount Vernon a procession was
formed and headed by Linden's Band, marched
up the hill to the tomb, where, after the
Pilgrims Chorus" from Tannehsuser had
been sung by the Washington Sengerbund, I'M
firing president of the North American Turner
bund, Mr.. Hugo Muench Of st. Louis de-
livered very eloquent nemOrial grafton.
Mr.. Muench spoke in English and his remarks
commanded the closest attention and were en-
Enthusiastically applauded. After referring to
the fact that the first requisite for membership
to the Turnerbund was American citizenship,
the speaker paid graceful tribute to the pur-
poses of the bund and the part its members had
always taken in the progress and welfare Of the
country, concluding his remarks with these SEN
fences:
characteristics of the immortal Washington,
none is SO worthy of unbounded praise as his
firm and answering devotion to public duty,
his urbane bearing and kindly consideration
toward those whom rank had placed beneath
him, his modesty Of personal demeanor, and,
last and greatest of all, that grand republican
spirit which made him spurn the thought of
personal dictatorship or crowned royalty and to
voluntarily retire at the conclusion Of two
terms at the head OF this country's government
to the no less exalted duties Of private citizen
ship.
OF him has it been truly written: "He was
the greatest Of good men and the best Of great
men," 1t behooves US to show ourselves worthy
of enjoying that liberty which Washington and
his noble contemporaries won, and to preserve
eternally the memory Of those whose names are
written upon the column Of fame, brightest Of
su-Sreatest and best-George Washington!
At the conclusion of Mr.. Nuench's remarks
1.-The Star Spangled Banner" was sung by the
Ssngerbund and audience, accompanied by the
band. The boat was then taken for Marshall
