diplomats stationed here to select theiisummer homes and publicly announce

the location much earlier in the seasonthan usual. With the experienceof the past two summers to guide themand the astuteness in abundance to be

found in so diplomatic a diplomaticcorps, the allies select one resort,while the central European powerstake another. The lease is as good a?

an exemption for other diplomats, and

in fact serves as a "keep off," thus doingaway with the embarrassing situationswhich beset society at the outbreakof the war.
