Happy to Visit Cities.
"The king rejoices at the prospect

Albert l. king of the Belgians, the
only newspaper reporter who ever
became a monarch, is a. years old
and is one of the most picturesque
figures of the great war.
The king took postgraduate
course in newspaper" training in
1908, when, somewhat like Peter the
Great, he visited the shipyards of
France, Great Britain, Italy, Ger
many and Scandinavia, to learn ev-
erything possible regarding ocean
carriers, with the expectation at
some future time of putting Belgium
high in the class of maritime pow
ers. Several years previously, it is
said, when merely the son of the
Count of Flanders, a nephew of
King Leopold, he came to the Unit

on one or two newspapers in the
northwest
Succeeding to the crown on De-
cember Is, 1909, Albert l. endeared
himself to the 100000 people OF his
little kingdom. The abuses of the
Congo, which had brought upon the
head of his aged uncle, Leopold, the
condemnation of the civilized world,
were abolished and the king and his
beautiful consort faced the prospect
of long and happy reign in eoun-
try where "tramps, idlers and soup
houses are unknown"
Made War Record.
During the great conflict King
Albert spared himself none of the
rigors of the soldier Often he ex-
posed himself to shell fire and
aviators' bombs burst about him.
Once German shell tore off the
wheel of the automobile in which
he was riding. At another time
chauffeur who had been promised
100000 to deliver the king to the
enemy was shot as he endeavored
to drive the royal car into the Ger
man lines. Hardly a day passed
that he was not in jeopardy of his
life and futile efforts were made by
his ministers to induce him not to
expose himself.
