WAR PREJUDICES
CHANGED NAME.

During the war the very name Of
Battenberg became so offensive to
the English people that the family
AngIicized it into Mountbatten, Civ
ing up at the same time all Ger
man titles and affiliations. The Mar
Quis of Carisbrooke then ceased to
be His Highness Prince Alexander
Albert of Battenberg and in 1917
was created the Marquis of Caris-
brooke, taking his title from Caris-
brooke Castle in the Isle of Wight,
Fis mother, Princess Beatrice, being
governor and captain of the Isle of
Wight and governor of Carisbrooke
Castle. The young marquis was in
the royal navy from 1902 to 1908
and became a second lieutenant in
tho Grenadier Guards in 1911. He
served in the great war, rose to the
rank of captain and later Joined
the staff
Not only does practically every
one of interest the world over come
to Washington sooner or later but
many of IL m come several times
for instance, this was not the first
visit of the Marquis of Carisbrooke.
Then it is said that the Prince of
Wales may come for another visit
before long. Let's hope the story
is true for his visit was certainly
enjoyed by Washington. Last
weeks visitor, Governor Pugsley,
was the first official to receive and
entertain the prince after his ar
rival in this country, the prince
landing at st. Johns, New Bruns-
wick, Canada. The governor is a
most charming person, a man of
extraordinary intellect, great tact.
wide experience ard so human and
gentle. His wife is equally as de-
lightful and is a very handsome
woman. They were on the go every
minute of their stay here, first one
person after another entertaining
for them. They left rather suddenly
Friday morning.
They gave a delightful luncheon
party themselves at the Shoreham
on Wednesday. Mrs. Mitchell Pal
mer had guests lunching there with
her the same' day; it looked like
family party of mostly her
relatives to me. Our Ambassa-
dor to Japan and Mrs. Roland Nor
ris were lunching, there. too. Mrs
Morris said she was leaving in a
few days for Philadelphia and
would spend most of her time there,
coming TO " dSnlnSIOn occasionally.
Mr.. Morris, being a Democrat, does
not expect to go back to. Japan. and
is just waiting around to see what
will happen to him. suppose. There
was an interesting table full of
Democrats there that day, too, the
table usually occupied by Joseph
Tumulty, Ray Baker, Joe Davies
some times, Mitchell Palmer occa-
sionally, etc. 1t was crowded Wed
nesday with Homer Cummings, Tom
Shipp, Angus Mclean and a few
others in addition to Tumulty, etc
That pretty widow. Mrs. Wilfred
Dupuy, was at another table and
Mrs. LeBaron Colt and her daugh-
ter, Mrs. Barrows, were lunching
together. Another small party like
that was made up of Mrs. Joseph
Hampson, who was as lovely as
ever, and Mrs. Ira C. Copley.
But there were so many peo-
pie there you and I know. can't
begin to tell you all of them.
There was a dinner party given
for the Pugsleys at the Chevy Chase
Club Wednesday night 1t was a
fair sized party and a most enjoy
able one, but I never saw such a de-
serted place as the club was. Mrs.
Thomas F. Walsh had n delightful
little dance that evening at her
home.

Weeks Social Activities
Enriched by Advent Here
Of Royalty Incognito
By EVELYN C. HUNT.

Washington entertained royalty
last week. royalty that arrived
rather unexpectedly and caused
many sudden changes in the social
program Of Washington society. a
program that is very crowded with
large functions just now Wash
lngton enjoyed a real thrill in
harboring royalty inCoEnitO-we' re
demOCraticS people who dearly
love a lord. Still Washington is
never much surprised at the visit
or any person of any high rank,
lot sooner or later the whole world
comes here. But scarcely had one
begun to wonder how the grand
son Of one of the most famous
sovereigns of English history and
the brother of a queen could slip
into New York without causing real
excitement when he turned up in
Washington.
The lion of this occasion was no
less q person than the Marquis of
CarisbrOOke, who was a guest of
Representative and Mrs. Nicholas
LOngwOrth. The marquis had been
visiting Mr.. and Mrs. Cornelius Van
derbilt in New York and the latter
accompanied him to Washington and
was lnCluued In the functions given
for the marquis. Several carefully
arranged dinner parties were rap
idly disarranged by reason of a
hastily planned dinner at the Brit
ish Embassy, where Lady Geddes, in
the absence Of the Ambassador, who
went back to England recently
rather unexpectedly. entertained the
royal visitor at dinner followed by
a reception.
Among the guests asked to the
reception were the Hon. William
Pugsley, lieutenant governor of New
Brunswick, Canada, and Mrs. Pugs-
ley. who were " Washington all
last week. and the members of the
dinner parties entertained by the
charge d'affaires of the Italian En-
bassy and Nine. Brsmbilla; and by
Mrs. Charles BrOmwell-abOut fifty
in all. The Ambassador and Lady
Geddes were to have been the
guests of honor at Mrs. BromwelIs
party. which also included Mrs.
cambridge Colby, wife of the Sec
retary of State. and the governor of
Maryland, Albert RitChie.

tinguished guest, additional guests
being asked for an informal musi-
Gale later in the evening. Monday
several luncheon parties were post
pOned in order to accept invitations
for the imprOmptu luncheon which
Mrs. Marshall Field gave for the
marquis, inviting very distin-
guiShed company to meet him. As
the brother of Queen Victoria of
Spain and the grandson of the late
Queen Victoria of England, the visi-
tor was naturally a parsonage of
consequence to both the British and
Spanish embassies, and, with his
hosts, he was entertained at a
luncheon Sunday by the Spanish
Ambassador and Mime. Riano. Mon
day afternoon Representative and
Mrs. Longworth entertained the
marquis in box at the concert
given by the Ia Scala Orchestra of
Milan.
Alexander Albert Mountbatten,
Marquis of Carisbrooke. Earl of
Berkhamsted, ViscOunt Laynceston,
is in this country on a private mis-
sion, and has been singularly for
tunate in maintaining the incOgnito
which he so greatly desired He is
turned on Tuesday, accompanied by
Mrs Vanderbilt. His friendship
with the LOngworths dates back to
1905 when he, then under the title
OF PRINCE Louis of Battenberg, was
a much-feted visitor at both the
British Embassy and German EN-
bassy. At first some people mis-
took him for his father. He is the
Oldest of the three children of Prin-
cess Beatrice, the youngest child Of
Queen Victoria, and consequently
the first cousin of the King of Eng
land. His father was the late
Prince Henry Maurice of Battenberg
who was admiral in the British navy
when the war broke out, but re-
signed his command owing to the
intense anti-German prejudice which
developed against him. 1t was this
distinguished gentleman who was a
much-feted guest at both the Brit
ish and the German embassies in
Washington in 1905.

MRS. HARDING IN TOWN
FOR SHORT TIME.

Mrs. Harding is in our midst for
while again. She isn't going
off on the yachting trip with her
husband - it is to be stag
party - but while he is yacht
ing she has come here to attend
to several matters ard see about
disposing OF her house and then she
will go to New York to shop. II
seems that she has not positively
decided what she will do with their
house here. but will probably sell
it unless Vice President-elect Cool
idge takes it. Their Marion house
has already been leased. After
shopping, etc, Mrs. Harding will
Join the yachting party in Florida,
probably st. Augustine. Senator Ere
linghuysen, who owns the yacht the
Victoria, has already gone South to
await Mr.. Harding and the members
of his party. Mrs. FrelinEhuysen
will remain here. joining the party
when Mrs. Harding does.
II the rumor is true that Mr.. Hard
ing will call an extra session OF
Congress A pril or thereabouts. II
will mean that Washington will
have a late social season. for all Of
the officials will remain here late
and that always keeps many Of the
diplomats and unofficial people here
too for one reason or another. II
seems now that for the benefit Of
those who demoaned the fact that
there was to be no inaugural ball.
a large and brilliant charity ball is
to be given on March 4 Then there
will be a Junior League dance that
evening, too, you know. The dane
ers will be happy And I've heard
that the Ned McLeans may give a
ball that evening.
No, the Hardings won't attend the
charity ball. The benefCiaries will
be the Child Welfare Society. which
will undertake the entire affair. The
bathrooms of the New willard have
been engaged for the occasion and
the best music OF the country is be-
ing engaged. The governors OF the
States of the Union and their wives
will be among the specially invited

felt. Lady Geddes made a perfect

who is far from well, is resting
