two years old. Prince Alexander's
 father was an exile in Switzerland at
 the time of his marriage and the
 birth of his three children-two sons
 and a daughter. Alexander was in
 his fifteenth year when Peter was recalled to Serbia to mount the throne.
 He was quiet. studious lad in strange contrast to his elder brother, whose wild dissipations and escapades forced him to renounce his right to
 the throne in 1909. Both of the
 brothers have shown great bravery and ability in the present war, but it is largely to AIexander's stubbornness that the diplomats of Serbia's power fuI allies attribute the present plight of the country. All of the diplomatic, efforts to win over Bulgaria, Greece and Rumania to the cause of the AL lies went for nought because Alexan- der stubbornly and steadfastly refused to make the concessions which Ser bias neighbors, and especially Bull garia, demanded as the price of their aid While there is no disposition to blame Prince Alexander for his at titude, but rather a tendency to ad- raire him for his firm stand in refus- ing to give Bulgaria her pound of flesh, the diplomats of the Allies q doubtless wish that Serbian ruIership had developed upon a man less t'sot in his ways

Ex-Queen Alexandra,
 Fl Today, Aids in
 Caring For Wounded

Although she will pass her seven ty-first milestone today, Dowager Queen Alexandra is still active and en- ergetic, and since the outbreak of war she has devoted much of her time to relief work among the wounded and in aiding the families of soldiers. She has been active in the work of a number of societies having these ends in view. and her Iabors in the role of angel of mercy have further en- deared her to the people of the British Isles. The Queen mother-a title, by the way to which she objects as saVoring too much of the sere and yellow leaf-was born at Copenhagen on the first of December 1844 The eldest daughter of King Christian K of Denmark, she came of a notable family. Her brother, a little more than a, year her junior, became King George of Greece in 1863, the same year Alexandra was married to Ed ward, Prince of Wales, in St. Georges Chapel at Windsor. Three years af- ter Alexandra's marriage to the heir to the British throne, her younger sis ter became the bride of Alexander the heir apparent to the Russian throne. The latter became Emperor, and Dagmar the Empress, in 1881. twenty years before Edward VII. and Alexandra assumed the royal crowns of the United Kingdom. The young CT sister of Alexandra and Dagmar, Thyra, became the bride of the Duke of Cumberland, the claimant of the kingdom of Hanover, of which his father was deprived by Prussia. Queen Alexandra is the aunt of Con- stantine, King of the He1lenes; of Christian K, King of Denmark, and of the Duke of Brunswick, who mar ried the Kaiser's daughter, Princess Victoria Louise Her youngest daughter, Queen Maud, occupies the Norwegian throne. Like the Russian Dowager Empress, Queen Alexandra is outspoken in her detestation of the Germans While most of the oth- CT members of the British royal fam fly have avoided bitter personalities, it is said that Queen Alexandra con- demns the HohenzoIlern family lock, stock and barrel" and is not at all particular about who knows it. Alex andra retains much of her youthful at tractiveness of appearance, which she attributes to her total abstinence from red meats, buildings, pastry, cof- fee, coca, and wines, and her liberal consumption of vegetables and fruits.
