The foreign diplomats .ip Washington with their secretaries, councillors . and attaches and with, the wives, sisters and daughters, If they; had them, always have .been strong factojs in the solving of the problem of how to keeji capitalSociety moving. With a thousand or two additional foreigners here to buttress the social efforts, the really necessary social efforts, of the resident diplomats, the Old World has had a powerful social hand over the New World, as it is represented in .this good capital of the United State?., ... ... The White House, of course, dominates the em- bassies In every social sense, but it is the only seat of social activity and social influence in Washington which has so dominated them this winter. In society, interest In the foreigners and in their doings temporarily , has clouded interest in the social doings of the congressional, the judiciary, the army and navy and the residential coteries. All the visiting foreigners, great and near great, have made the embassies of their country their rallying places. There have been so many of the .French, British, Italian, Japanese, and others here 'that no embassy has been big enough to hold all Its. countrymen even for a rapidly coming and going reception, but the embassies are home soil and there not only is the national standard displayed for each country, bdt there is set. also what may be called the social standard for all the "alien doings. , The. aipbassadhrs and ministers of foreign countries and their families always have been hos-- 1 pitably inclined. It is, of course, a part of dlplo- matit duty to maintain relations with other coun-- , tries through the medium of the teacup. They are back today to pre-jvconditions with a good deal added to make them powerfully attractive. Jules J. Jusserand, ambassador from France, Is dean of the diplomatic corps, having arrived In this country to assume the duties of his office February 7, 1903. This gives him ten years more service than his nearest competitor, Senor Riano, the ' ambassador from Spain. During this nearly score of years Ambassador Jusserand has so familiarized himself with Americans and American affairs that he well might be called an American . himself., . The social activities at the great French oh Sixteenth street are directed by Mme. Jusserand, Who was born of American parents residing in Paris at the time of her birth. - She speaks French and English equally well. As hosts the French ambassador and his gracious wife have no superiors In this or any other city. It Is ap- parent to anyone at all familiar with the person- nel of the foreign colony in Washington that the dean of the corps and his wife are looked up to hs leaders for whom one and all have a sincere .admiration and deep affection. This Is the feeling also of most people who know them, for the have made many strong and lasting friend- ships In the large circle of Americans who, through the exigencies of politics, have been here fora longer or shorter time. It is thfe custom of diplomats to make mqre or less frequent visits to the home land and up to the time of the beginning of the great World war In 1914 the French ambassador and Mme. Jusserand always spent the summers In Europe. They were there when the war torch set Europe on fire, but managed to get back to this country, traveling separately and ipcognito. Then, while the strife continued, they remained here constantly, never leaving Washington for more than a few days at ar ! . em-bas- Jus-seran- ' . fWcro ortv&rr&vt ivyst a time. Their relaxation consisted of a drive each afternoon in their victoria, drawn by a span of horses and recognized by all people, in this region . by the tricolor cockades in the tall hats of the driver and footman. The French ambassador ha? adopted the American breakfast. When weather permits, he takes it on the roof of the embassy instead of following the custom with which all travelers to France are familiar. Also, when the weather is congenial, afternoon tea is served on a porch. It is at these teas, quite Informal, that the Jusserands get In CIose touch with Washington society, official, diplomatic and others. On these occasions Mme. Jusserand presides over the teacups with the dignified simplicity that characterizes her at all times. She is always well gowned, never overdressed, never appearing In anything approaching the bizarre. It is considered of the utmost importance to all the members of the diplomatic corps that they make their calls at the home of the dean and his wife as soon as possible after their arrival in Washington. It would be hard to estimate how many calls have been made In this way, hundreds surely, and possibly thousands. As the number of dlploinats is small compared to the rest of the people who figure In Washington society, all of whom make many calls each year on the Jusserands, a person mathematically inclined might And some amusement in computing the approximate number of visits which probably have been made at the French embassy during the past eighteen ' years. To the casual visitor in , Washington, the embassies and legations seem praeUcally inaccessible, whereas such is not the case. To say the official hemes of the foreign colony are easy of access would be nearer the truth. The representatives of other countries and their families go more than halfway to meet Americans. It Is true' they follow the rules and regulations laid down by polite society and are punctilious about calls, precedence and other social amenities, but they are most appreciative of courtesies which bring them in more intimate touch with the affairs outside of diplomatic formalities. It Is a pretty safe statement to &ay that all diplomats speak at least one language other than that which is native to them. The majority do better than that and are more or less familiar with half a dozen or so, speaking more than half of them fluently. It has been noticeable that for some years the wives of the men who are sent to Wash-ingto- n from countries In all parts of the world have perfected themselves in languages. There are two ways of placing the rank of the heads of embassies and legations. In the matter of precedence at society doings the ambassadors rank the ministers, Irrespective of the length of time of residence here. For instance, the minister of Portugal, Viscount dAlte, came to Washington f Just nine months before the French ambassador M. Jusserand, arrived. However, all the ambassadors must pass ahead of the. viscount and all the wives of the ambassadors would precede the wife of Viscount dAlte, H he had one. The other method of rating the embassies takes into consideration the order of their establishment in Washington. The founding of embassies here Is a part of history and goes deeper to the root of international relations than the appointment of ambassadors. The importance of the British embassy cannot be underestimated and yet Sir Auckland Geddes, the British ambassador, must take his place tenth in line because nine colleagues ot , e ' BEAUTY PARLORS CURLS, SWITCHES.
