Washington is happy meeting

find old friends from former Euro

frequently happens that secretaries
and attaches return to us, promoted
sometimes even to an ambassadorship.
Among these former agreeable men,

French embassy and Nine. de Blanpre.
They received so many warm well
comes that they could scarcely reserve
for themselves time to seek a suitable

Nine. de Blanpre could not well
be forgotten in Washington. During

she was an active figure in society, in
all its varying moods. Her beautiful
and well-cultivated voice was given
for innumerable good and worthy
causes, and more frequently still just
for the real pleasure 1t gave to others.
