WeuufnE Day OF italian Royalty.
Old King Nicholas Of Montenegro.
who u at present a king without q
country, and Is living In Paris. is
famed as a warrior. poet and play
wright and he is also entitled to rank
as the worlds greatest matrimonial
matchmaker. Through the marriages
he arranged for his feminine offspring.
Nicholas is related TO most OF the
royal and ex-royal families of Eu-
rope, but his matrimonial masterpiece
was when he married his daughter
Helena to the King of Italy just TWEEN
ty-two years ago today.
The alliance between Vittorio En-
.anucle III. ruler of a world power and
the daughter of a petty princeton
Nicholas had not yet proclaimed him
self king-startled all the courts of
Europe. Not only was Montenegro
small and unimportant, but 1t was
hardly considered civilized. Nicholas.
the prince or "Gospodar.' was utterly
lacking in royal etiquette. He often
held court under a tree, acting as
judge and rendering verdicts on the
petty quarrels of his people.
Europe stood aghast at the match,
and yet there can be found no hap
pier welded pair In Europe than Vic
tor Emanuel and his stalwart wife.
Queen Helena, as Is generally known.
towers far above her husband, who Is
rather short.
The Italian king. and the italian no.
ton. will celebrate the twenty-second
anniversary of the royal marriage in
the assurance hat Italy mas grown
greater since the happy event so many
years ago and hat victory will
crown Italy's efforts in the field.
The youth of Queen Helena was
spent in the ramshackle old palace of
her father In Cotlnje and in wandering

she speaks as we'll as her native
tongue. She is a crack shot with the
rifle, King Victor inc Queen Helena

three daughters. The crown prince.
now in his fifteenth year. has many of
the phycisal characteristics of his
mother. and is the idol of the italian
people.

I HAVE taught boxing to 10000
soldiers in training at Camp
Upton, most of them men who
never saw a boxing glove, let alone
pulling one on. They learned how
TO jab with the left, counter with
he right, step out Of a clinch, hit
and get away and some other tricks
IF the Marquis of Queensberry art.
Believe me, It didn't take long to
get them acquainted with these
ricks. In just eleven months there
were 10000 more boys who could
use their fists as a result of having
taken military training at Yaphank.
1t is generally admitted that the
man who knows a few boxing tricks
becomes a great bayonet fighter.

Activities to be boxing instructor at
Upton. There I was associated with
Captain Frank Click, formerly

classes of ESQ men each for Gales
themes. In two months the boys
could shadow box in regular style.
The officers saw the benefit of the
work and formed officers boxing
classes. Calesthenics became rather
