Society Changes
BY KATHARINE BROOKS.

AA<AASA@NA<
The constant change of personnel
In the many groups which make up
Washington society is particularly
prominent as 1910 draws to a close.
Before Christmas there will be two
new Ambassadors in the diplomatic
corps, and when the new Congress
convenes early next month there
will be many new faces.
The retiring Polish Ambassador,
Count jerry Potocki, who has been
a colorful and popular figure in the
corps for more than four years, will
give farewell party Tuesday, De-
cember 10, when he will be host at
dinner followed by reception. The
Ambassador will remain in this
country for some time, having ar
ranged to give a lecture tour, and
Countess Potocka and their son
probably will stay in South America
until he joins them later.
The newly appointed AMBASSADOR
and Mime. Ciechanowska are ex-
pected to arrive after December Is,
though no definite day is set.
New Chilean Envoy
To Arrive Soon.
The newly appointed Chilean AM
bassador and Sonora de Michels will
sail for this country on the same
steamer which took the former AM
bassador and Sonora de Cabero
home. The boat will sail shortly
and the new Ambassador and Sonora
de Michels with their daughter and
son, Senorita Cristine Michels and
Senior Roberto Michels, jr., will be
in Washington before Christmas.
The Brazilian Ambassador and
Senhora de Martins, who are enjoy
ing a brief holiday in their home
