Gt. Britain's Royal Family Children of King George Form Loyal Group Amid Artificiality By P. W. WILSON, in .he N i. Times Magazine. For th» House of Windsor, as for the lest of the world, time asses :|uickly. It is ten years a r.ce Prin- stss Mary was married to Viscount Ijiscelles, now Earl of Harewood. Ni years have elapsed since the rhimes of Westminster Abbey were rung; for the Duke of York and his bride, Mary Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon. Che matchmakers are much excited, herefore, over the pretty you: g Prin- :ess Irgrid of Sweden, who has visit- id London. His Majesty King George V. .las U face a fact unusual in royal fami- lies. He has five surviving children. All but one have passed the age of 30. Yet only two are married, and ine of these is the Princess Mary. Of the four sons, three are bachelors. It was hoped against hope that the Print e of Wales, now approaching the lorties, might find his second cousin » long-sought Queen to share his pros- pects of the t: »one. The Prince, how- ever, continues to be satisfied with the privilege of attending weac'ings as best man Mary knew ner busines-;. :.i i would allow nothing ai d nobody to inter- fere with the normal life of her home. She insisted that her sons, though Princes, must be boys like ('Lher boys; that her daughter, though a Prir-:cs3, must be a girl among girls. There, in York Cottage at Sand- ringham, the family lived as a family, in a modest house and without osten- tation. For years the future Queen â- â- as i.ever seen at all by the crowds of London. She was otherwise oc- i"upied. The children dug in tl.eir gardens, they played cricket, they 'ei>. taken by their mother to visit places like th. Tower of London; thty were tiught by their tutors, they said their prayers, they attended church, they learned the catechism, and they were familiarized with the Bible. -•bove all, they were matu to rea- lue their reh-tlon to the community. From time to time toys were shared with the poor, and at birthil^ys and Christmas all cakes, after c'ue enjoy- . cnt, were cut x.y and distributed. In the minds of those children the dyn- asty WES established on a firm foun- \a*ion of duty to the nation. * • • Billions of words have been writ- ten of the humor, the gayetj , the tact, the persistence, the couragfe, the pat- riotism and the obsti lacy of the Prince of Wales, who to this day has never failed to be prolific in para- graphs. What if they did assign two huge detectives to dog the infant foot- steps of the Prince? He hau himself photographed between them and en- titled the picture, "My Nurses." What if the cadets at Dartmouth called him "Sardine"? He replied to them on the banjo. "I do not mind being killed in France," said he to Lord Kitchener; "I have plenty of brothers, to carry on." To •which the Field Marshal re- torted grimly: "I do not mind you being killed, but I cannot t.l!ow you to be taken prisoner." Ard to Lord Haig the whereabouts of -'the boy" day by de.y became an obsession. Not for an instant does the Prince seem to be at a loss. The Mayor of s loyal borough forgot his part and •tanmiered, "We welcome your Royal .Highness not only â€" not only â€" " There was an unearthly silence. "Noi only," continued the Prince calmly, "for the sake of the ancient throne which you represent, but also for your own sake" â€" and the Mayor was saved from /-uicide. The illness oi the King rnd the economic crisis, taken together, have thanged the Prince of Wales, botJi in mind and in appearance. He talks no longer of throwing up the whole busi- nees unless he is allowed to live his own life, but appears on the plat- form, serious and determines, as he Lges the nation to "buy British." Educated like the Prince of Wales at the Royal Naval College, Dart- mouth, the Doke of York â€" nervous on the platform â€" has had to overcome a shy temperament and indifferent health. People forget that, as a sub- Lieutenant, ha was on active service during the Battle of Jutland, and, Ikter, was promoted to be wing com- s^ander in France; nor is it remem- bered that he is a student of econ- omics and a frequent visitor to in- ilnatrial plants, where his particular OUR CROSS-WORD PUZZLE RE-TINNING mik Cana, Ice Croara Paoker«, Checie Hoopa Toar old cans made like new for IMS tbaa half cost of new.

Twict he proposed to his future Duchess and twice he Aas refused. It was QueeT Mary who tcld him that 'â-  int heart never -von fair lady and urged him to try his luck for a third and â€" as she insisteu â€" r. last Vme. Faced by this ultimatum, the little Scottish lady acceoted aim. In the Abbey, so pleased were they with «ach other after the benediction, that thty almost forgot a detail. Just in time, the Duke swept his Duchess to the right turn »nd, facing the King and Queen, she dropped the most im- portant curtsey of her dazzling career. Prince Henry, Duke of Gloucester, was educated at Eton and the Mili- tary Academy at Sandhurst. In deb- onair manner, he is the official alter ego of the Prince of Wales, whose travels, including a fall from a horse.

Eventually they start the healthy Knischen habit. Then ihey start getting rid every day of all waste matter from the system. New, healthy blood goes coursing through the veins. Aii 1 almost im- mediately they feel their youth has returned; they feel young, energetic and happy. In a word, they've got that famous "Knischen Feeling." Owl Lafifs Kittyâ€" "Why are you angry with Maxr Ethel â€" "He promised not to kK"! me â€" and kept his word!" Classified Advertising he has shared. For the Prince, he frequently acts as deputy. Put his schedule of engagements is less crowded. Pri.ice George, in whom, at the moment, mankind takes an especial interest, was trained at Dartmouth for the navy an<', like his "father, he spent many years with the fleet. As a lieutenant; stationed in the Far East, he has chased Chinese up the Yangtse River, and if today he is drafted into th© Foreign ^crvice, in Do You Know? Whitehall, it is for reasons of health. The suggested wedding can hardly be said to affect the succession. The throne today would pass thus: (1) Prince of Wales; (2) Duke of York; (3) Princess Elizabeth, eldest daugh- ter of the Duke of York; (4) Prin- cess Margaret Rose, secon 1 daughter , the Duke of York; (5) Duke ot Uloucester, and (6) Prince George. Also, if there were further children burn to the Duke of York, or if the Duke of Gloucester married and had children, all of these heirs would pre- c- ie Prince George .ind his children. On the other hand. Prince George and hii family would precede Princess Mary and her two boys, the Lascel- L'r-, now at Eton. With every year that passes, the Princess Elizabeth of York â€" known as Lilibet â€" who has celebrated her sixth Lirthday, draws the greater crowd. The people are as eager to see her as they are to see the King and Queen themselves. And for a sinu' reason. Daily she becomes more important. She can only be deprived of the succession by a younger b other if, in due course, he should ajrive. Her sistev, Margaret Rose, born amid a tempest in th- historic stronghold of Glamis Castle, is only second to Elizabeth in hei nearness to the throne. This royal family, founded afresh or a human basis, depending for the first time on purely human values, and regarding pageantry and privil- ege and pedigree as factors subordi- nate to the normalcies which are com- n.on to all families, is thus consider- ing one more event in its age-long an- nals.

French Court Upholds Noisy Critic of Film Paris.â€" Spectator.s at public enter- tainments and at theatres have a legal right to demonstrate their disapproval by whistling and shouting, according to judgment just rendered by the Civil Tribunal of St. Etienne, near Lyons. The case as one of a specl^ator who, having loudly protested against the quality of a motion picture perform- ance, was refused admission to an- other show by the proprietor of the cinema on the grounds that his be- havior interfered with the perform- ances. The judgment of the French Uibun- al states that "the act of criticizing the poor organization of an enter- tainment, even when done noisily, can be construed as the legal exercise of right to criticize, and the manifesta- tion of diaaatisfaction cannot serve as a pretext by the director of a theatr* for refusing to admit a spectator." The cinema proprietor was sentenced to pay 100 francs damsges. A Scotch clergyman noted tor his thrifty habits sent a telegram to a parishioner on her wedding day. The message read: "John IV., 18." On look- ing up the text the girl was horrified at these lines: "For thou hast had five husbands ; and he whom thou now hast is not thy husband." After they had restored the young woman to consciousness, inquiry was made at the telegraph olBce, and it was found that the operator had omit- ted the letter or numeral indicating the first Epistle. John I. IV. IS reads: "There Is no le^.r in love, but perfect love casteth out fear." The fact that a man toots his own horn does not necessarily mean or In- dicate that he is a musician.

Feinblooni of New York has announced a dis- covery here which he said will bring back normal sight to thoi-sands of per- sons now practically blind. Fcinbloom's discovery is a new type telescopic lens which will enable per- sons with as little as two per cent, sight to see as well as they could with (Id-type telescopes, but with the added comfort of seeing things just where they really are, it was ex- plained Feinbloom predicted his discovery w.uld enable th usands of people now dependent upon charity to become in- dependent. "The old-type telescopic spectacles and common opera and fieM glasses are exactly alike in that both are mado of spherical lenses which mag- .lify and appear to bring the object nearer," Feinblooni said in explaining his discovery. "-Application of the new cylindrical lenses into these same glasses magni- fies the objec' but the distance be- tweer, the observer and the object re- nains the same. "In looking through the new type of telescopic spectacle*, th» object viewed la magnified horizontally." This, he said, will make it possdble for persons who formerly were "shut- v.m" to wslk about frerty. One of the joys of winter is a frock of woolen mixture. And how trim and smart they are.
