the initiated the little announce.
ment. printed last week in all the
society columns. that the German
Ambassador and Nine. Otto Wied.
feldt had sailed for the United
States meant just one thing-the
end Of the summer season and
the near approach of fall.
The coming and going Of the
diplomats mark the opening or
closing of a season. Early in
June the greater number Of the
embassies and legations Are moved
to seashore or mountain resort
and only occasionally does some
member Of the staff. or the ambas-
sador or minister himself, hurry
back to Washington to transact
some pressing business.
Diplomatic row Is a deserted
village between the months of
June and September. Houses are
, boarded up and lawns grow rank
with uncut grass. The foreign
ers learn very quickly the first
principle of enduring Washing
ton summer-don't. The National
Capital is anything, usually, but
an ideal summer resort and those
who can find time or the where
withal to sneak away during the
hot spell never fail to do so. Six.
teenth street has as many closed
houses during the summer as
Fifth avenue. Which brings to
mind Washington woman,
recently become very wealthy.
Her first ambition was to buy a
house on Sixteenth street and
board it up for the summer
months. That was her idea Of
letting the world know of her
riches.
This will be Nine. Wiedfeldt's
first visit to Washington. The
ambassador was here early in the
spring, but he was here alone, re.
turning to Germany after a few
months. Probably he wanted to
have a look at the old German
embassy on Massachusetts avenue
before bringing Nine. Wiedfeldt to
make it her home. The building
was closed during the war and had
to be thoroughly gone over before
1t was habitable again. 1t is really
a magnificent old place, but just u
bit gloomy. 1t was one of the sad
dest places in Washington during
the war. Its windows tightly
boarded up and it's massive door
permanently closed, the building
fairly radiated depression. The
