Many of "War Colony
Leaving for other Parts.

Washington would seem to be as
crowded as. ever judging from the
difficulty of obtaining houses and
apartments and the sky-high prices.
But one by one the important people
from vaS4ous parts of the country
who were drawn to the Capital dur
ing the war are returning to their
homes and every few days somebody
else turns up missing" The latest
additions TO the list are DR.. and Mrs.
George Draper. who have given up
their house here and gone back to

Mrs. MediII MeCASmAsk
VIII Hustle Back to Farm.

Mrs. MediIl Mccormick is also plan
June, although politics will keep
Senator Mccormick in Washington al
summer. Mrs. Mccormick will prob
ably be here occasionally, but she
explains. she can't be spared long
from Rock River Farms. the McCo--
mick place in Illinois, where she has
a dairy business which demands her
attention.
Some years ago. Mrs. Mccormick
started a model dairy farm with two
objects in view: First. to provide
certified milk for creches, day
nurseries and kindred institutions
which need milk OF that character
and can't AFFORD to buy II from the
regular dealers I'm told that IL is
produced at q slight loss on the Nc
Cormick FARM; and, second, to prove
that the rather poor land around that
section Of Illinois could be success
fully used for dairying. The arrange
ment was that the manager OF the
Rock River estate should run the
dairy in winter, but that in summer,
when the farm demanded his atten-
ton, Mrs. Mccormick should take
charge. And she has never allowed
anything, not even her political &C
tiVities in connection with the Re-
publican woman's Executive Commit
tee, to interfere.
Mrs. Mccormick expects to have
her kiddies with her on the farm
until August, and then they are to so
to Long Island to stay with their
grandmother. Mrs.. Robert McCor-
mick. who has taken = RlRce there
for the summer months.

Baden-POweIIs Were
RoyalIy Entertained.

Very much the same assemblage of
diplomats-pretty nearly all now left
in town-and officials had come to-
gether two nights before at Mrs.
Henry F. Dimock's FOR the reception
she gave in honor of Maj Gen. Sir
Robert and Lady Baden Powell, but
resident society was rather more
numerously represented at her party,
I think; This was quite the largest
and most brilliant of the functions
given for the distinguished British
soldier, the father. or yne scout move
ment, and his charming wife who
were given a. right royal welcome and
hardly. had a moment to themselves
during their stay in Washington.
The Washington times., 1919-05-18

Lady Baden Powell is much
younger than her distinguished hus-
band. All the Baden Powells marry
late, if they marry at all, and Sir Rob-
ert was regarded as q confirmed
bachelor up to the time of his mar
riage. His wife is a slim young
woman, with an intelligent pleasant
face. and she was simply gowned in
black. with a narrow circlet of dia-
monds on her hair, on the evening Of
Mrs. Dimock's party. The rooms
were filled with handsome, we'll dress
ed women, many of them wearing
beautiful jewels. but to my mind Mrs
Walmsley-a New Orleans woman
who has been living in Washington
for the last year or twO-was the
prettiest thing there. She has young

Altogether until their departure on

were quite the busiest people in

ton Of Baron GOto and the members

Weld County Magazine Soon to Make
Appearance
The Weld County Commercial club
held an important and highly product
i've session at Kersey on the clubs first
out.of-town meeting for 1919.
The proposal to issue magazine in
the interest of the county ut monthly
intervals which had been recommended
at the April meeting was taken up and
discussed in detail. resulting in the
meeting accepting the report Of the
publicity committee and instructing the
proper officers to enter into contract AZ
proposed for the publication Of the
magazine during the remaining months
of 1919.
Briefly stated the proposition is this:
The publicity committee Of the club.
after careful consideration Of means Of
presenting Weld countyAs advantages
most effectively to the public. both At
home and abroad. came to the conclu-
sion that to publish monthly magazine.
circulated locally at small subscription
rate. and in outside localities to persons
known to be open to consideration Of
new locations would be far better
way to spend the advertising sppropria-
ton Of the county than thru the issu-
snce Of single booklet each year. as
It would have the advantage Of keep
ing constantly before the persons 1t Is
desired to reach fresh matter relative
10 all districts Of the county presented
in authoritative manner. and by reason.
Of it, wide circulation would be an ideal
advertising medium for many classes Of
manufacturers. managers Of pleasure
resorts. real estate dealers and others.
II Is the opinion Of those who have had
much experience In the sale Of such nd
vsrtising that the space sold will prac.
tically pay for the publication Of the
magazine from the start. and after .
time yield some profit to the club which
would be available for use in other
phases Of its work. leaving the annual
advertising levy available for cmergen.
cy.
The magazine will be sold in Weld
county at 26 cents per year in advance.
It will be- mailed to all persons inquiring
from real estate dealers or the state
board Of immigration or other agencies
regarding locations applicable to Weld
county. whether farm. mercantile or
professional. Express shipments will
be sent to eastern localities from which
people are removing and from which
they might reasonably be expected to
come to this county II conditions suited
them. Commercial bodies within the
county will b furnished with = limited
number Of each issue for such special
circulation ~ they may deem most like
ly to produce results.
The Pierce club extended an invita-.
ton to the club to meet at that place in
June and it was accepted. The men,
bership turnout the county should ar
range to attend this meeting. rs the
Pierce country is well worth seeing.
