PRINCESS ELIZABETH—BORN RULER

That of Potential Queen

Second of a Series

BY MILTON BRONNER NEA Service Staff Correspondent

LON DON, Dec. 16.—Crowds gathered on the pavement in front of 17 Bruton-st on April 21, 1926. Newspapers clarioned with bold headlines the fact that a daughter had been born to the Duke and Duchess of York. A thrill ran around the world in all those lands where the

Union Jack waved.

Americans wondered why so great a fuss was made over the new baby. After all, she wasn’t in direct line for the throne. ler uncle, Albert Edward, Prince of Wales, was ahead of her father in the succession. But Britishers knew history, remembered that King George V, the wellbeloved and aging King, had ©

not expected to be ruler | either, yet he had reigned | long and honorably. They knew | thie importance of even indirect succession, knew even then that

Wales had little relish for assuming the weight of responsibility that overhangs the throne. The Bruton-st house was the London home of the Earl of Strathmore, father of the Duchess. It was not a large house, but a simple nursery was arranged. The baby girl was named for her mother, her greatgrandmother, and her grandmother, Elizabeth Alexandra Mary. The London soothsavers and astrologers were soon busy casting her horoscope and coming up with the prediction that she would one day reign as Queen Elizabeth II.

® n ”

IMPLE clothing was provided, except for one priceless garment, a robe of gold lace donated by her adoring grandmother, Queen Mary. The lace had once belonged to Queen Elizabeth, and had come down through Queen Victoria to Queen Mary, The Queen took deep interest in the baby, and cared for her at Sandringham and Buckingham Palace for several months while the Duke and Duchess were called away on a tour of Australia. “Grandma” took excellent care of her charge, and bought her a spe-

cial necklace to cut her teeth on when the Queen's own pearls began to suffer. By the time the first birthday came around, Elizabeth was ready to celebrate by walking eight steps while dragging a wooily dog and holding a silver rattle to her five teeth. When her mother returned, the baby Princess was able to greet her with “Mummy! Mummy!” a term British children apply to their mothers. v By this time, a new residence in Piccadilly had been provided for the Duke of York and his family, and Princess Elizabeth knew a new nursery. Occasionally the family journeyed to Glamis Castle in Scotland, ancient seat of the duchess’ family, to enjoy country life, but usually the little Princess’ outdoor life was restricted to pram trips

Her first appearance before the camera, with her mother hovering over her, is about the only one in which Princess Elizabeth failed to show an intense interest and understanding of the attention accorded

her.

found it advisable to give her a string of beads to save wear and tear on the royal pearls, which were being used as a teething ring.

Already it was noted with what gravity the little girl bowed in acknowledgment of the cheers that greeted her when the family drove in the streets.

mother, the Duchess, was enter= taining a friend. The little Princess was in the drawing room, listening to the conversation.

Privately Owned Land Given Peons

BY MARSHALL HAIL

NEA Service Special Correspondent ORREON, Mexico, Dec. 16— Less than 400 miles below the American border, an advanced social experiment, perhaps the most radi-

being relentlessly pushed forward. The government is taking land away from big owners without paying them, and giving the ground

free in small tracts to the peons,

or landless tenant farmers. The peons, ground beneath four centuries of oppression, are suddenly being made owners of Mexico's richest irrigated farming district, the fertile Comarca Lagunera in the states of Coahuila and Durango. This is the flowering of what Mexicans call the social revolution, which started in theory when Dictator Porfirio Diaz fell in 1910. The core of this program was land distribution to the poor farmers, or peons. But the expropriation of land and its parceling out proceeded only piecemeal and at intervals. Here in the Laguna district this method is impossible, as under its flood-type irrigation, large tracts have to be irrigated at once, and hence cultivated systematicaily. So the government now, in addition to a widespread land distribution, is embarking on a gigantic

collectivization scheme. The farm- |

may take over any property from a power plant, not only if it wishes the property for a specific public use, but if it considers such appropriation generally in the public interest. The preamble to the act states clearly that an entirely new conception of property is involved. “The new juridic conception of property does not consider it an absolute right, but as a social function,” the act reads. “Thus, the expropriation may ke made not only because of public utility, but also for reasons of social interests, for the individual does not have the right to maintain his property non-

of life, work, or of consumption, disregarding the general welfare.”

less to say it was Lillibet who went —to bed. Independence was early inculcated into the child, and it was a bookseller at Forfar, Scotland, near Glamis Castle, who was astonished one day to see the 4-vear-old Elizabeth shopping in his store for books, and carrying her own little purse. Rejecting several with a grave “Thank you, I've seen that,” the little Princess finally chose one with an equally grave “I will take that,” and counted out the coppers to pay for it. = on on Y the time she was 5, the childish “Lillibet” vanished, and to herself as well as to her mother and the royal family she became Elizabeth. It was at this time, too, that she began going regularly to Church of England services. Trained to sit still during service in those early days, the little Princess today can sit through a long concert or ceremonial with less fidgeting than her uncle, the abdicated King, could ever manage. Very few little girls have a hiography written about them when they are 4, but this happened to Elizabeth, and the year was also marked by the birth of her little sister, Margaret Rose. The Princess’ mother, the Duchess, always wanted to send the child to public schools, but it is believed due to the influence of Queen Mary that her education began under private tutors, much as if her future accession to the

It was a playhouse so large and so complete that one could ascend the stairs to a second story, a dream house for a little girl to “play at housekeeping.” The thatched roof of the house caught fire when it was being delivered, but it was repaired, and was the scene of many of the little children's teas and entertainments which the Princess early learned to plan and conduct herself. For one of these she prepared a program, which read as follows: English recitation . . . Princess Elizabeth French recitation . . . Princess Elizabeth With ready facility in languages, writing and geography, and a liking for all subjects but mathematics, the little Princess was making rapid progress in her education. Her health excellent - at all times, the little Princess Elizabeth was growing into something very close to the English ideal of happy, normal girlhood.

HE Republican situation in the Senate is actually worse than the scant number suggests. There are 17 Republican Senators. That is, there are 17 who in ithe official directory will appear with the letter “R” after their names. Prefunctory possession of that letter is about all there is to the Republicanism of nearly half the 17. Of those 17, four did not support Gov. Landon in the recent campaign. They are Johnson of California, Borah of Idaho, Norbeck of South Dakota, Frazier of North Dakota. Johnson and Norbeck supported President Roosevelt. Frazier supported Lemke.

HE ineptitude of proverbs is another subse ject of which toG little has been written, Consider, for example, the nonsense about the early bird getting the worm. Even Charles Lamb didn't get around to

that one. To be sure, he got awfully close to it when he exploded the popular fallacy about getting up with the lark (Item XIV), but for some reason he muffed the one about the worm.

I bring up the subject at this time of year when I get to worrying about the way unfinished business keeps piling up. It gets worse every year, and the only solution I see is to discard some of our atavistic beliefs and thus lighten the load. I can't think of a better place to start than with the early bird and the worm. Of course, I know that we still have people around here who subscribe to the theory of the early bird. There's Mrs. Charles Kistner, for instance. Mrs, Kistner hurries downtown the day after Christmas and lays in her stock of handkerchiefs for next Christe mas, which, if I haven't made myself clear, means that Mrs. Kistner bought all her 1936 Christmas presents back in 1935. And then, of course, there is the classic example of Mrs. James Fesler, who still shows up for work at 7:30 every morning.

Mr. Scherrer

on No More Worms

Mee there are other examples in Indianapolis. Granted there are, I think the rest of us are pretty well agreed that there aren't any more early worms. I doubt if there ever were, Indeed, I can't figure out how the nonsense ever got started unless it's one of those things that goes back to the time when all of us were in a mote or less pastoral frame of mind, like the birds and bees and other kith and kin, Well, we aren't in a pastoral trame of mind any more, and nobody knows it any more than the de= partment stores. / The department stores wouldn't let us get the early worms, even if we wanted to, because they don't get going until 9:30 a. m. And it's that way all along the line. I don’t know what everybody's doing between breakfast time and 11 in the morning—and it's prob= ably none of my business—but the fact remains that they aren't doing much.

” »

No Business Until 11

NYWAY, you can't do any business until then, and then only by appointment. At that, you're lucky to find your doctor in before three in the afternoon. Which brings me to the next, and I hope the last, thought of this piece, that maybe it would be well to do away with breakfast altogether, since breakfast is the one remaining reason why we get up in the morning at all. Do away with breakfast, and we can clear up the whole bird and worm problem and dismiss it as finished business. It's the only way to start the new year right.

A Woman's View

BY MRS. WALTER FERGUSON OR the 299th time I am asked to discuss the merits of cookery over coquetry in getting and holding a husband. It is a subject that has been talked to strings by thousands of lady columnists and which is kept constantly before the public on 10,000 women’s pages. Also we have cooking schools, house keeping institutes and grocery store demonstrations, all designed to educate the ignorant housewife. Yet, in spite of these efforts, the plaint about our inefficiency and carelessness goes on. Nor does marriage seem to have benefited. Men and women. still march to the divorce courts in battalions and Mama's tears over Papa's escapades fall, as ever, into the dishwater. Something must be wrong somewhere, I can’t bring myself to believe that good cooking alone will cement a man's interest in his home, for I've known too many husbands who were devoted to wives who couldn't fry an egg. That's my main reason for feeling that our methods of cookery must be revised if they are to turn the man-trap trick. As things now stand, girls are taught not to prepare foodsto please men but impress their foursome friends. For men, as we know like fine roasts, whole= some breads, flaky pastries and succulent but plain vegetables. And we spend most of our energies and wits experimenting with party repasts; little gobs’ of mayonnaise, little dabs of cheese, little sprigs of parsley, little red radishes, knife-ravished, and celery sliced into tiny strips_you can’t get your teeth into, Here for example is a typical recipe taken from the morning newspaper: “Special Holiday Salad. A spread of avocado, a pink shrimp centering it, a bit of cranberry and orange relish in the center of the shrimp, and a tiny sprig of watercress topping the relish.” That's what. the girls are trying to cram down the throats of their big He-Men, Well, the men won't take it, and nobody can blame them. They want food, not frills.

AIN in the ear sometimes may be relieved in the early stages by dropping eardrops, slightly warmed, into the ear. Most of such drops are composed of glycerine with, occasionally, a small amount of phenol or carbolic acid. For the last-named, boric acid occasionally is substituted. Either of these remedies is as likely to do harm as good, if wrongly applied, and should not be used without advice of a doctor.

Whatever position Republicans in Congress take becomes party policy, if enough Republican congressmen unite in it. It is usually in the Senate that party policy emerges. But consider the Republican Party in the coming Senate. It consists of just 17 Senators. That is one more than a sixth of the body. It is less than 18 per cent of the whole Senate. This proportion is misleading. For the Republican vote in the recent election was about 37 per cent of the total. That is, 37 per cent of the voters are represented in the Senate by only 18 per cent of that body. But that condition

is on the fringe between the regular Republicans and the group named who are very frequently in dissent. Here then are actually only 10 Senators, or 11 at the outside, who can be called Republicans in a thoroughgoing sense; and six or seven who in varying degrees are over toward the New Deal. If Republican policy is to be made in the Senate, which of these groups is to make it? Of the two groups, only the regular Republicans can be considered spokesmen of the nearly 17 million persons who voted the Republican ticket last month. It would be gdd to think of Republican policy being made by Senators who were not Republican in the recent campaign, or are frequently not Republican in the Senate,

The mere application of heat to an aching ear sometimes will bring relief. In most instances, how ever, it is necessary to incise the eardrum to let out the collection of infectious material. People have strange notions about the eardrum, They think that a puncture of the drum will intere fere permanently with hearing and cause other dam= age. Actually, the eardrum heals promptly after the infection disappears, and the hearing is likely to be just as good as it was previously. There is, in fact, a far better chance of saving the eardrum if it is opened promptly when there is pressure from pus behind it. . After the infection spreads from the ear intp the mastoid region, the condition called mastoiditis de velops. This is much more serious than the ordinary. infection of the ear alone. When the infection spreads. to the mastoid, great tenderness will be noticed in thatregion, which will be painful under pressure, and: usually will be visibly red and swollen. The physician watches this development carefully, Whenever the pain is severe and the fever rises and: persists, the doctor knows that the infection is serious. It may become necessary to operate on the mastoid itself, removing the infected and degenerated bone ; and thus avoiding extension of the infection, as some= . times occurs, to the brain itself. The X-ray is valuable nowadays in making definite diagnosis of the presence of mastoiditis. Mastoid cells. that are breaking down can be detected in an X-ray of the mastoid region. : After a child has had an ear infection, or operas : tion for mastoiditis, he needs great care to recover from the effects of the infection on his body as a whole. His nutrition must be watched carefully and he must have proper food to aid the growth of his body and, particularly, to develop his blood again to its optimum stage. -

IFE does not prove to be what you think it is when you are young. You snatch at happiness, only to have it crumble to ashes in your hands. Yet if you accept life, without rancor, you may have the content that comes of living at peace with yourself | and others. Thus reflects Haldor Bessasson, about whom | Kristmann Gudmondsson has written in THE MORN- | ING OF LIFE (Doubleday). He brought Maria home as his wife, and won the hatred of Salver.

And he, knowing the punishment to be just, came at last to a patience and understanding that drew the bitterness from his heart and let him die in peace.
