Only three members are left to take

six being absent from the city on

has given rise to self-sacrince on the
part OF each Of the three members on
several occasions.
Mrs. Francis A. Connolly. acting
commander OF the corps. was In the

WHITE SULPHUR SPRINGS
HAS CAPITAL COLONY.

The gay August season at The
Greenbrier and The White, with the
sixty cottages, is now in full swing
and naturally many Washington So
ciety people 4, are of the colony at
White Sulphur Springs, w. Va. Mrs.
stephen b. Elkins' arrival from At
lantic City on Friday was hailed with
delight, as she has been a member
OF the Old White colony there for
many years past. Mrs. William +. r.
Hit, who is at Coronado Beach. Cal,
will probably join Mrs. Elkins later
on and she's looking forward to occa-
sional visits from her sons, Senator
Davis Elkins among 'em. The eldest
Stephen B. Elkins. has gone abroad,
sailing on the Olympic.
1t is a pretty sight to see Col. An
drew Thorne, Of the British embassy,
and the Hon. Mrs. Thorne in the great
swimming pool at the Springs with
their Ave attractive little kiddies. all
as English as ca nbe. 1t is perhaps
not generally known that Sir Auck-
land Geddes was most anxious TO
make White Sulphur Springs the
summer home of the British Embassy.
But no suitable house or cottage was
available. and nothing nearer Wash
ington being found. he was forced far
afeld into Maine.
The Old White has a peculiarly
warm corner in the British heart, as
many members of the Embassy set,
the British War Mission and others
of the diplomatic service can testify,
and il anything more were needed the
visit of the Prince of Wales served to
seal the matter. or the many English
titled folk who will visit the United
States this year many are planning to
visit White Sulphur during the co'h-
ing autumn and spring seasons.
Mrs. r. w. Williams arrived at the
Greenbrier from Washington ,ast
week to spend her usual season, and
Judge and Mrs. Henry Waters TAFT
will spend the entire season at The
Greenbrier instead of visiting Murray
Bay, Canada, where they had for sew
eral years a pretentious summer
home.

MANY NOW sUMMERING
AT WHITE MOUNTAINS.

A good many Washington society
folk are making pilgrimage this year
to the White Mountains and some are
established for the entire season in
camps or cottages. For instance, the
Victor Kauffmann's are at camp
Percy-a sort of summer club-on the
shores of the lovely little Lake
Christine, where they have been going
for years: and their son. Philip {.
Kauffmann. and his bride (Nancy
Lane) are with them.
The Rudolph Kauffmanns have also
been in the habit of going to Camp
Percy every summer, but this year
they are taking a Western trip-to
the Canadian Rockies, Banff. Lake
Louise, and all through that glorious
country-with their son-in-law and
daughter, Mr.. and Mrs. Lewis Newton
Murray. They visited the Murrays at
Dunkirk, N. v, before starting West
and will be their guests again after
their return. So l don't suppose we'll
see them here again until late au-
tumn.
Mrs. d. NJ. Ramsdell and Miss
Ramsdell. of Washington, are at the
Profile House, Franconia Notch. for
few days. Mrs. A. T. Salter is staying
at the Mt. Washington for the month
Of August. Mrs. l.. p. Hendricks and
the Misses Genevieve and Marjorie
Hendricks are spending the summer
at the Maplewood, near Bethlehem;
and Mr.. and Mrs. D. A. Gurney are
stopping at the Crawford House,
Crawford Notch. A frequent visitor
at the Sinclair House in Bethlehem is
the Rev. MerrD~E. Gates. of Wash
ington, who now has summer home
nearby, and who spends his entire
summer in the White Mountains. he
breaches occasionally in the neighoor-
ing churches-and plays golf for rec

Warrenton Is surely sustaining her
reputation for gayety Another busy
week closed with the Red Cross Car
nival which took place Friday and
Saturday evenings. 1t was a regular
"block carnival" with county fair
trimmings" and was one of the events
of the season. Thousands OF people
were there and thousands of dollars
was realized from II. A masque ball
was the feature the first evening;
fully five hundred were dancing in
turn. and as many were in costume.
Some of the costumes were stunning.
as many ridiculous. but a Washington
girl Miss Vesta Gardner. was award
ed the first prize in the ladies' class.
She represented Vogue poster, and
was correct to the minute. Another
feature was an old-fashioned ger
man OF many new intricate figures.
This was lead by Billie Gaines. now
of Warrenton-he lived in Washing
ton and Alexandria several years
ago-dancing with his sister -in-law.
Miss Virginia Wrigley, of Macon, Ga,
Harcolmbe Chamberlain. and Hey
ward Spilman, assisted Mr.. Gaines in
handling the crowd. The dancing be-
gan at 10 and continued till the
next morning.
Saturday night the Carnival closed
with dance-yes at midnight, on
the stroke-the Town Hall was
closed. But the crowd was not
satisfied-they picked up the music
and en- masse proceeded to the old
Country Club and danced until day
light Sunday morning.
Warrentop reminds me of an old
hen with the proverbial brood of
chicks, when she clucks they all run
to cover. SO 1t Is when there is any
thing OF note socially going on in
Warrenton the native sons and
daughters" come in from every
source. The Carnival was "the hen"
this time. When the afternoon
train-or the "six-twenty" as they
call 1t there-came in Friday and
Saturday evenings-they were packed
to standing room. Jack Glib and
Clay Brittle went on from Washing
ton Na.), Lester Burke Edward anu
Sam Maphjs from the University at
Charlottesville, and Edward Hotch-
kiss and Hampson Skinker went up
from Washington. There were many
Washingtonians present. Baltimore
and Richmond even were well repre-
sented, and the State of Virginia

tive from every wide spot in the

Apropos OF consuls. Warrenton can
certainly hold her own in that line of
service. The late Colonel Mosby>w was
once consul to China, the late Robert
