Evening Republican, Volume 22, Number 51, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 1 March 1919 — The Most Beautiful Queen. [ARTICLE]

The Most Beautiful Queen.

Queen Helena of Italy, who played such a big part in the entertainment of President and Mrs. Wilson on their visit to Rome, has been called the most beautiful queen in the world, and the most cultured and gracious as well. She speaks French, German, English and Spanish fluently, in addition to Italian and Latin. She knows Greek as well and is familiar with the literature of all ages. She is a *great lover of flowers, fine old lace and rare jewels. In Rome she takes interest in the social life of the court; in her country home at Monza she is a country woman; in the Alps she is as hardy a climber as the Tyrolese, going ovbr glaciers, along narrow paths or to the edge of a precipice with charming indifference.
