The Washington herald., 1920-03-21

Mrs. Gary has developed a sudden
fondness for the country. and she
stays down in Westbury, in prefer
ence to going into New York and
occupying the great Gary town
house on the Avenue, across from
the George j. Gould mansion. Z
However. Mrs. Gary has her Fifth
avenue home open and has given
number of entertainments there.
Just the other evning she had
number of guests in for dinner, the
guest OF honor being Nine. da
Cana.
On her arrival in London. Nine.
da Cana will Join her husband. the
newly appointed Brazilian Ampas-
sador to the Court of St. James.
Nine. da Gary is eminently fitted
for the place which she will occupy
in London society. She is very
fond of entertaining. and has es-
tablished an enviable reputation as
hostess here in America. .
Also her famous Russian diadem
of diamonds will be an important
addition to the great array of
jewels worn by the social leaders
of the British metropolis on opera
nights at Covent Garden.
tvIsCOUNT GREY PLANS
; TO VISIT AMERICA AGAIN.
When Viscount Grey went home
he intimated that he would return
| shortly in an official capacity.
Thanks to a Washington physician.
his eyesight was greatly improved
and he liked America and said he
would be back. Now it develops he
is coming this summer to deliver
series of lectures on the league
lof nations. He is president. you
! know. OF the League of Nations
Union of Great Britain. an unoffi-
cial organization something like our
| League TO Enforce Peace, is. you
know. When he was here in an off,
cial capacity he received many in
vitations to make addresses on the
subject of the league of nations.
but couldn't do il then because he
hadn't presented his credentials-I
| think that was why he couldn't. At
any rate. he is coming back unofi-
cially to deliver the lectures. Judg-
ing from all appearances. the league
! is going to be an issue in the forth
| coming Presidential campaign. in
which case will Viscount Grey care
to lecture. do you think? For he
would then be in the unenviable po-
sition of a foreigner "butting in"
the campaign. / suspect that Sc
ries of lectures just won't happen.
What do you think?
