SocietyFeud
Comes to
a Head

Social registerites in Capital
and New York society are
chuckling over the latest episode
in the feud between the Ameri-
can-born ladies Of title, the
Duchess de Richelieu and the
Princess RoSpigliosi.
Several months ago the two
ladieS ceased to bow when their
paths crossed at Newport and
Southampton. And that in
spite of the fact they have been
fast friends. The duchess last
winter presided at the tea tables
when the young Princess Laura
RospiglioSi, named for her
mother, the former Miss Laura
Stallo, of Cincinnati, was pre-
sented to society.
Failed to Collect
It appears that the duchess,
who, as Elinor Douglas Wise, Of
Baltimore, was once a popular
bud" in society in that city
and Washington, had sold her
friend certain pieces of furni-
tnure from her residence on
East End Avenue, in New York.
And that all efforts on the part
of the ducal lady to collect had
proven vain.
Early this week the Princess
RospiglioSi, after a succesSfr
season in New York, embarked
for Europe. Her friends were
gathered in her cabin on ship
board for a farewell party when
a huge bunch of roses arrived
from the Duchess de Richelieu.
A Peculiar Gift
Those present hailed the
gift as a peace offering, and
the princess, melted almost to
tears, was on the point of plac-
ing the Grecian offering in
vase when she discovered that
the flowers, instead of her
former friends card, contained
a court summons.
Great was the rage of the
princess. Her guests report the
things she said about the duch-
ess-Oh, la, la!
Not long ago Princess Ros-
pigliosi, who at the time of her
marriage to the heir of the IA
nous italian principality. was
one of the wealthiest heiresSes
in this country, was reported to
be on the verge of bankruptcy.

Washington Fashions
BY Wilma La Vile

Prints are blooming again
this season with flowers of every
description. Their blossoms
rival the garden, and they
brighten both the interior and
out of doors, for they are worn
everywhere. They may be on
the wane in Paris, but they are
certainly widely accepted in
America. And, of course, moth
ing is more practical than a
print for summer weather.
Prints Decrease Size
We find prints among the
most practical and smart street
fashions for women of larger
proportions. The right print
will take pounds off and the
right line will make a dress
graceful and flattering. The
dress we have had Sketched to-
day combines many good points.
It is of sheer, cool chiffon,
printed in a design that is vivid
and bright, yet indiStinct so
that it will decrease the appar-
ent size of your figure.
For Many Occasions
It has capelets over the sleeve
only, which is a gracious fash
ion for the larger woman. These
little capelets are cut up to the
shoulder so that the dress may
be worn for bcGh formal and
informal occasions. The sur
plice closing is another flatter-
ing fashion that is easy to wear.
The hip-line is fitted just
enough, and the whole dress is
made over a flesh-colored foun-
dation of silk, which shows a
bit at the neck-line. There is
a tiny bit of lace at the "V"
also. This is a lovely cookbook
ing dress and it comes in large
sizes. Furthermore. its price is
very moderate.
If you want any more infOr-
nation about the dress Sketched
or about your own fashion prob
lens, write Miss LaviIle, inclOS-
ing a addressed, stamped
envelope, or call District $3.50,
Extension 165.

We Blush To Say

"Yes, doctor, that is quite
true. but your commissioner is
more than twice as old as that
boy, and has no hair whatever
on his chest and can prove
It,"
"WelI, / can tell by their bi.
cops they are over age" said the
good doctor.
In the meantime your COM
missioner. was figuring a psy
Geological test on the good
doctor. It had been your com
missioner's duty the day before
to interview the umplres in
the tournament, noticing that
one of them appeared very
young indeed, and remarking
to him he didn't look a day
over II.
But in that he produced box
scores showing he had urlpi"ed
in the American Association
your commissioner took bis
word he would be 81 his next
birthday. At the time of the
protest the umpire was known
to be still enjoying his morn
ing sleep on the same floor of
the hotel, and the commissioner
telephoned for him, assuring
him it would be o. K. to come
in his pajamas and that there
was only your commissioner and
q physician in the room.
The umpire appeared in robe
and slippered feet and seemed
somewhat amazed when your
commissioner requested him to
remove his robe and pajama
coat. which he did quite obljg
ingly, but in wonderment.
Doctor" asked your COM
missioner. "hOw old would you
say this young man to be-yOu
will observe he has no Seaweed
on his chest"
"Why, not day over 16."
