King Edward is to take a holiday trip
to France and the Mediterranean re-
gion travelling incognito. 1t is an
nounced that the Dowager Queen Mar
gheritG of Italy on her forthcoming
auto trip through the United States,
will travel incognito. All that this
means is that they will save them
selves a whole lot of time-taking, and
not always interesting or diverting
ceremonial and entertainment. If Ed
ward VII went to France it would be
necessary for President Fallieres and
the French people to receive him as a
monarch and offer suitable entertain
ment for that station. But as the
Duke of Lancaster, he relieves the
French of such courteous obligation,
and so leaves himself free to really
have a holiday and really rest and en-
joy himself. The same thing is true
of the Dowager Queen Margherita.
When Edward VIII, then Prince of
Wales, visited America in 1S6O-61, to
leave himself freer to travel simply as
a gentleman, he came as Baron Rem
frew.

that courtesy benefits not only the per-

one extending it. It's the little courte-
sizes that often make the most lasting
impressions. Courtesy toward its pat

characteristics of the North Western
Line. It's employees are instructed to
accord all patrons, but particularly
ladies and children, every possible
courtesy and attention. Its the little
