is an architect, and he has been pur-
suing his profession in New York. But
he has all sorts of Washington con-

Then there is the news that comes
from Buffalo that Mr.. and Mrs. ID. II.
Chester announce the marriage OF
their daughter. Lucille Elsie, on No

The wedding took place in New York.
The bride and groom have been visit

And there was Fannie Chamberlain

her home, but she will be missed in
Washington, just the same.
As for DR.. Naon's resiEnation-that
is a matter of general regret. He has
been here about four years. and he
and his charming wife are equally
popular. 1t was known last year that
he was very much dissatisfied-cspe

was playing in reference TO the great
world war. Last January he went
homeland there were rumors then
that he would not return. But in June
he came back, not merely as an Am
bassador. but as High Commissioner,
making the trip in one Of the cruisers
of the Argentine navy. with others es-
corting him. 1t was really quite an
imposing re-entry into the country,
and apparently all was well!
But Argentina's attitude to Germany
continued-according to popular report
unsatisfactory to Mr.. Naon. though
he had done his best to stiffen it.
Finally he resigned, both as Ambas-
sador and as High Commissioner II
will probably. however. be two or
three months before he is able to
leave the country. But there's no
hurry. for he doesn't seem to know
just where he is going Probably he
will 80 abrOad-not in any official ca
pacity-simply to travel and give his
children a chance to see other Coun-
tries than their own and this. He ad-
mits also to a hankering to be an in
terested observer when the peace con-
ferencss are on. No indeed, not Off
Cial. Absolutely not; merely in his pri-
vate capacity. He seems to be det-
nitely retiring from the diplomatic
service.
There will. Of course, be a round of
farewell parties, for and by the Am
bassador Of Argentina and Nine.
Naon. What was probably the first
of them was their dinner on Thurs
day i'm honor of the Swiss Minister
and Nine. Sulzer. They have not
been doing very much entertaining OF
late. Perhaps the fact that there was
very new arrival at the embassy
may have had something to do with
it-oh no indeed, not a little Naon,
tiny Mitre.
Perhaps YOU may remember that
several times mention has been made
of Dr. and Nine. Jorge Mitre, the for
mer editor Of El Nacion. the leading

with Ambassador Naon as its god
father. I believe DIR. Mitre was TO
have gone to New York yesterday,
and I understand that he and his wife
and the little newcomer will shortly
sail for nome.
And then there was the Davis
Spencer wedding yesterday-the mar

daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Edward T.
Davis. to Lieut.. Douglas Anderson

wedding late in the afternoon and
gave everybody a gentle reminder
that the war was not yet over, when
it developed that Lieut.. Bigelow who
was to have been best man was not
a BILE to get here, and Lieut.. Rivers
Davis, of the Aviation Corps, substi-
tuted for him.
