ROYALTY IN SPAIN
 REPAIRS PORTABILITY
Alone in This Respect Among Re-
 mainiDg European Courts

Madrid. March 1V:--'Thc: royal house of Spain. despite the demo- cratic nature of the king and people, alone among the remaining courts of Europe, retains all the old world for malities. which up to the outbreak of the war were so vigorously observed in Vienna, St. Petersburg. Berlin and to more or less extent in London, Rome and some of the smaller capi tals of Europe. ~.
 This is due to a large extent To the in nl1uence of the queen mother, Maria Christina, who remains all powerful in court circles and is a stickler for the observance Of those forms and cere- monies which marked all occasions at the court of Austria where, as a grand duchess. she learned them.
 King Alfonso, after receiving in tho throne room at the palace in the morning. may rub shoulders with joe rkcNs. buoknlak+.rS and the general run UJ racCSOCrS at the track in tho afternoon. but when he returns to the palace in the evening he re&imes. as It were. the crown. It IS generally reported that to him tic afternoon, free from conNcntiGnalitieS, is the happiest part of his day and that he has often expressed desire when haraSsed. by the political troubles ot his country, which seem never 10 set tie down. to leave it atl anu take his family off tu some south American re- public and engage m the breeding of horses, of which he is ptSsionatcly tond.,
 The strict formality Of tue court was observed at the. banquet and re- ccption given To the dlplonlauc corps d short time ago when Tor the first time the representatives ot all toun- tries had been invited to the same function since the summer of l91t. The guests saw display or jewels. which probabl could mol be matched outside Of Asia. Although the diplo- mats were the guests of the evening, the younger members Of the royal family preceded them and were to the right and left of Queen Victoria at the tables the am baSsadurs and m1n- isters of state coming after them.
 Dinner over. the king and queen with the royalties and dinner guests formed in procession down long re- ception hall where the foreign repre- sentatives presented the members ot their staffs.
 The king and queen stopped at each group to pass few words, but thls was the only informality of the eve njng Later in the throne room guests not belonging to the dlplo- matic corps were presented.
 The finest scene. however. was on the grand staircase. on either side of which stood a TOW of brilliantly garb- ed servitorS. AS the beautifully gown cd women wearing many jewels and the men in their brilliant uniforms, passed up and down this staircase a changing color scheme was presented.
 Queen Victoria in q dress of clUth of gold a wonderful dia mond' tiara on her fair head. two great diamond neck laceS reaching 10 her waist was a stately and dazzling figure.
 The queen mother was equally re- splendent in pearls. of which she wore a collar of six rows. tiara. two necklaces and many clusters. Ladies in waiting Wore jewels formed of ery precious stone known with

RED CROSS AND CHILDREN.

It is difficult for the individual to realize that any great movement will affect him or his personally. The Congress of the League of Rcd Cross Societies recently held at Geneva, Switzerland. has started work in the interest of child welfare throughout the world. One is inclined to read this statement with polite interest. remarking that it will be a splendid thing. and then turn to some other item which interests one vitally be- cause it tells of an approaching drop in the price of milk.
 It is not apt to occur. to one that the news coming from the far-distant meeting of Red Cross societies may be of far greater importance to your child. perhaps at the moment playin;s with an empty milk bottle. than in formation regarding the cost of the liquid which arrived at your home in the childs present plaything.
 In discussing the proposed child welfare work of tho League. Henry P Davison. chairman of the board of governors said, in part.
 The program of the medical
 conferences held at Cannes has . become the common possession
 of the Red Cross societies Of some
 twentN-Scvcn countries The Con-
 gresS has agreed upon a cam paien for child welfare which, in lud dgment. will nrofcIlnI1\ affect the health and care of = mothers throughout the world.

But it is inconceivable that the .rescarchcs of a great organization like the { League of Red Cross Societies. de voted intensivcly to a study of what is good for the child and the child's mother, will not bring informa ton. gained from worldwide. practical experience, which will bring improrS- nlents of in bly greater value | ) you and Nours than the moro .immc- diatc and tangible blessing Of cheaper food. ...,
