BARE FACED ENGLISH KINGS.
A Record Of Three Centuries That Was
Broken by Edward VII.

1t was often remarked at the ac-
cession of Edward VII. that he was
the first bearded king for nearly
300 years. The i'll fated Charles
/. was his immediate predecessor in
this respect, and he came to the
throne in 1925. Charles was the
last of the kings for very long
time to represent the Elizabethan
or Shakespearean fashion of the
pointed beard and to wear his own
hair on his head.
Charles III. wore tremendous
wig curled in a hundred ringlets,
but the only hair on his face was
q slight mustache.
None Of his successors until Ed
ward VII. boosted even that. Both
boards and muStaches went clean
out of fashion, and James H., Viii
liam ILL.,, all of the Georges and
William ~. were Just as clean
shaver as all the rest of their mas
culine subjects There was a time
when a beard had not been seen
in England within living memory.
In wearing beard Charles |. fol-
lowed the example of his father,
James, and, as James was Scottish
before he was an English king, he
probably followed the fashion Of
his predecessors in the northern
kingdom.

could look back upon several bare

upon their faces.

NE ED|CAL SERVICE
PROVIDED FREE To
POOR At HOSPITAL
"0ut Patient Department" is
Established at st. JOSeph'S
Through o'Brlen, Wyman
and SherIand Gifts.

Through the bequeSt Of the late
Patrick O'Brien and the generous gifts
of Mrs. George Wyman and Mrs. Ma
tlda Sherland, the establishment of
an Out Patient department for the
medical and surgical care of the poor
at St Joseph's hospital has been made
possible. Formal announcement Of
the plan was made Tuesday by Sister
NJ. HolycroSs, superintendent of the
hospital.
Rooms at the west entrance Of the
hospital Will be open every Tuesday
and Friday morning from 10 o'clock TO
II, and here any patients desiring to
consult with a competent physician but
unable TO pay for the service, may
apply and will receive immediate at
tention.
Regardless OF race or religion all
worthy cases applying for medical or
surgical attention and even hospital
aid viii be given it free, il was an
nounced. The establishment Of the
department has come about through
the conviction of the hospital author
tiles that there are many unfortunate
people in the city suffering from cur
able diseases which prevent them from
earning livelihood and makes them
a burden upon relatives or upon the
community.
Through charity workers many such
cases have been brought to the atten-
ton of the hospital authorities. but
heretofore they have been unable TO
apply the urgent need All such cases
may now go TO St. Joseph's hospital
with the assurance of receiving COM
petent medical or surgical attention
as the case may be
The only cost Will be the actual ex-
pense of the medicine prescribed or of
the surgical dressing used In ex-
treme cases where even this charge
would work hardship. all expense WlII
be eliminated. In this work the isis
ters will be assisted by the Hospital
Aid society, members OF which Will
serve on visiting and other auxiliary
committees.
