KING FERDINAND DIES EARLY TOILU ~ OMIM I I' I ""'' tors in the Balkans. Succeeded Hie Uncle Ferdinand succeeded his uncle, King Carol, as King Ferdinand I. Roumania had been established only 36 years when the war began. England, Germany, Russia and France created it in the treaty of Berlin in 18,8. Despite the Hoheniollern blood in Ferdinand’s veins, Queen Marie was able to keep Roumania out of the war on the side of the allies. That was the biggest thing that ever happened to Roumania— entering the war. It won for Marie's country vast new areas carved from Russia, which had gone bolshevik during host ill ies. and Marie was honored for the personal sacrifices and diplomatic ability which enabled her to win new dignity and wealth for Roumania. Ferdinand was a weak monarch and never loomed so large as his able queen. Also, he was old. The beard-, ed prince was 59 years old in 1914 and 72 when he died. Physically, he was not strong. Marie was 10 years Ferdinand's junior and had the further advantage of a mind that kept her young despite advancing years. The marriage icarcely could have been termed a love match. r ' 9 Every Sunday (Season 1927) CHICAGO via Erie Railroad Tickets good in coaches only going on tain No. 7 and returning on train No. 8 date of sale.
