THE WASHINGTON TIMES; SUNDAY: OCTOBER 21. 1917. JEAN ELIOT'S CHRONICLES OF CAPITAL SOCIETY DOINGS Housing Problem Furnishes Topic Of Conversation News and Gossip Of Capital'Social Doings and Fads BEAR SUSAN: Have you bought your Liberty bond?

TCn. wnere can one escape the exhortation, "Buy a Liberty Bond" and then, as one humorist aptly phrased it "by, by.

Mrs. Me-Adoo, the President's bright and vivacious daughter and the wife of the Secretary of the Treasury, has proved herself no mean general, and the results she and her able corps of assistants have obtained reach truly amazing proportions. Gather la Letter Mansion For Bond Sale. The Letter mansion In Dupont Circle has been the scene of much brilliant hospitality In Its day, but seldom has It housed a more Interesting assemblage than gathered there yesterday for the sale of bond held under the auspices of that very smart organization, the Infants' welfare department of the Washington Diet Kitchen, with Mrs.

McAdoo presiding and the members of the Infants' welfare department, of which Miss Mary Owynn Is president. In full attendance. Miss Mabel Bcardman spoke, likewise Carl Vrooman, assistant Secretary or Agriculture, and Corcoran Thorn, and a tidy sum was added to the grand total of the Liberty loan by the sale. Heigh ho. It la upon such "Liberty Loan tea parties," and such pleasant events as Mrs.

There has even been a falling off in the number of more or less Informal dinners which have been so interesting a feature of social Ufa In Washington In the past few months, the world and uls wife being now occupied with the decidedly engrossing business of get. ting settled for the winter.

With the White House out or the running socially and the President feels that war time Is no time for the Chief Executive to be occupied with social functions and official society taking Its cue from above.

It la aDDarent that cr-arlty war cnarity, of course is the cloak under which most of the entertaining of the coming winter will masquerade. Even Washington'! elaborate and Involved calling code Is likely to be revised for "Cabinet day." one of the most picturesque and characterlstle of our social Institutions, when the wives of members of the iresiaenrs official family are "at home" to all and sundry callers, has been abolished until the end of the war: and the women of the Senate contingent are agreeing to call off their days at come. Women are devoting them- Ivs too nerslstently ana literal ly to their knitting to find time for the Indiscriminate calling which here tofore has done so mucn to taao vno Joy out of life in Washington.

They haven't forgotten that when first they foregathered at Camp Meade.

The announcement that the Marquis de Pollgnae, who la one of th most interesting of the many young Frenchmen now In Washington, is to take a charming American bride, Mrs. Eustls. widow of James Diddle Eustls. of New York.

Instead or breakfasting with th eyes of the guests upon 4hem, they had their wedding breakfast served a deux In a little upstairs sitting room before the bride went in to change Into her traveling gown. With such a dainty vision sitting op posite him, I suspect the bridegroom had no thought for food but I like the idea, don't your War Making Overcrowd Embassies la Capital.

With both Great Britain and the United States devoting themselves almost exclusively to the business of war making, the naval and military Staff of th British embassy In Ington has grown to such proportions that quarters have had to be found outside the embassy building. The military and naval attaches are now established at 1213 Connecticut avenue, with their corps of orderlies aid assistants. Moreover, the military attache, being no less a personage than Brig. Gen. James B.

McLachlan, D. S. now ranks next to the ambassador In order of precedence, the counselor of the embassy, Colvllle Barclay, having been relegated to third place In the diplomatic list, I can't remember when such a thing has happened before, but under war time condition It was thought best by the powers that be that the military attache here should be a general officer who had seen service at the front. Service a plenty General McLachlan ha seen. He left Washington in 1912.

after having been attached to the embassy her for two years or so, to take command of his battalion, the Cameron Highlanders, and took them to France when the great war broke out with England's first expeditionary force, the "contemptible little army" which will go down to history as one of the great armies of the world In point of achievement If not of number. He was wounded In ihe retreat from Mons and was out o( active service until June, 1915. when he went back to France, and was shortly after given command of a brigade. This he handled In such fashion on the Tpres salient and other parts of the British front as to win the Distinguished Service Order. In 191S he was agaii Invalided to England, and since his recovery has been training a brlgads with distinguished success.

McLachlan Fit InT Rather. Is Vote Here. General McLachlan's appointment to a post in Washington seems particularly appropriate Just now, not only on account of his previous ex perience here but because, in a ad dltlon to being a soldier, he Is a diplomatist of no mean order, a man of wide culture and accomplished linguist. He speaks French and Italian fluently, and 1 deeply versed In the literature of the two countries, General McLachlan Is of Scotch de scent, and la prominent In Masonic circles In Scotland. He Is a keen sportsman, riding hard and shooting straight, but a wound In hi right thumb ha forced him to give up golf and tennis.

He is forty-five more or less was educated at Cheltenham College and entered the army In the early nineties, having passed through ths Royal Military College, Sandhurst, with distinction. He served In Malta, In Gibraltar and In the campaigns In Egypt and the Soudan In 18B8. Prior to that he was aide-de-camp to the governor of the Bahamas and afterward D. A. A.

G. deputy assistant adjutant general. If you're not familiar with British army abrevla-tlons on th. headquarter staff of the British army In South Africa, where he gave good account of himself. Then, before coming to Washington, lie went through the staff college, taking all manner of honor.
