The new Minister of Switzerland
and Nine. Jean Sulzer, have taken
the house in Massachusetts avenue
in which former Senator Winthrop
Murray Crane, of Massachusetts,, and
Mrs. Crane, spent their first year of
married life, and where their first
child was born. 1t is a charming, but
wholly unpretentious house near Du-
pont Circle and adjoining the site
where once stood Stewart Castle, the
big snowy house built by Mrs. Stew

This new Swiss legation has a ro-
mantle history, for it was there that
former Senator William A. Clark, of
Montana, took his girl bride to live
when he brought her back to America
from a few years residence in Europe,
and with her their two charming
babies. Their arrival set the town
agog for the social world looked upon
the Senator as a widower, and the
biggest catch in Washington or even
perhaps in the United States.
With such enormous wealth the
brown stone residence seemed indeed
modest and Washington folk who were
fast becoming accustomed to the ex-
ceedingly rich who were seeking the
Capital as home failed to be i'm
pressed with a mere recital of Sena-
tor Clark's wealth. until they awoke
one morning to find that the Colorado
Senator had paid 100000 or more FOR
the Stewart castle that the east win

lot has stood a wholly useless piece
of land until this summer, when in
the midst of the great furore for gar

tables. Right in the very heart of
the ultra-fashionable section Of the
city, the corn and potatoes are flour

at Bar Harbor, with DR.. Parker
earlier in the season. She is being
congratulated on the beautiful rose
shown at the national meeting of flor
lists in New York, named for her--the
Eleanor Parker, and which bids fair
to have a wonderful vogue both in
Washington and New York. DR.. Par
ker gave small reception to welcome
his wife on her arrival in Washing

with Eleanor Parker roses as spe-
cial compliment. The rose is not only
large and beautiful. shading from a

Gust r. Gustafson, I62 Fourth ave
nue., Moline, is no Stacker. and il
was unfortunate that his name should
be put on the pink Sheet The
method used by the Moline exemption
board in checking sIackers was re
sponsibie for the mistake. Here are
the circumstances:
When Gustafson was called for ex-
animation he was in Denver AZ
cording to instructions under which
the local board works, a notice Of cali
was mailed 10 his Moline address
the address given by him at the time
he registered. But it seems Gustaf-
son did not receive the call by mail.
but was notified through some other
channel In any event ne came all
the wa yfrom Denver to Moline and
was examined. RE did not measure
up TO physical requirements and was
rejected He returned to Denver In
the meantime the call that had been
mailed 20 him was going the rounds
and when it Was finally returned Ia
the exemption board headquarters IN
opened Gustafsons name was placed
on the Stacker list despite the fact
that on file in the local Headquarters
was the record that he had been dis
charged because OF physical disabil-
ity
In Gustsfshou's case he had the
privilege Of being examined in Den
Yer or wherever he happened TO be
when he learned that he was 10 bt
examined. Also GustaIson should have
notified the local board Of his change
in address, which would have pre-.
vented this confusion.

line exemption board Nick J. ValIas
who was arrested as Stacker.
