Democratic America

Princess Mary of England, is no
doubt a mighty fine girl, but the
people who read ABOUT the queenlv
pomp of her marriage must have
wondered why that countr, veneer
ates a royal family as if they were
superhuman beings. They may
have felt such costly display out
Of place in these times. They do
not understand when a country is
heavily burdened with debt, how
it can spend money on keeping up
all these trappings of royalty that
apparently perform no service.
The United States is supposed to
have gotten rid of these old tradi-
tons. The chief rulers live in a
democratic fashion without fuss
or feathers. Public ceremonies are
simple.
But even in this democratic
country, there is tendency to run
after prominent personages that is
very like veneration of royalty. Ir
presidents daughter is married
the newspapers are filled for
weeks with nictures and deScript-
ions of her trousseau. We do not
fall down before kings and queens,
but we chase after conspicuous
people in a very undemocratic way.

ed the Howard House for a SINH
lar affair, and as result of her
generous hospitality the League
benefited greatly in a financial
way, and the parties were much
enjoyed.
In October the Board engaged
Mrs. Oscar Cummings to stage
the play Wlilowdale, and it was
given in the Assembly hall of
Grace Methodist church to ca
pacity house, and added another
sun to the league treasury.
In connection with the indus
trial classes, which started in the
fall, with large numbers and much
interest manifested, the board
voted that the girls who were
paying members Of the league,
were entitled to all the privileges
OF these classes, with no other OK
pense except for materials used.
Later in the fall, the regular
leader, Miss Walter, asked to be
released from her duties, and it
was voted to secure a trained
leader to carry on the work.
In December the board was for
tunatc in securing Miss Eleanor
Jcnckes, who had taken training
for such work, and she has gone
on with the league activities in a
most efficient manner from that
time until now.
The board feel that they have
achieved at least in part their
objective, in furnishing both re-
creation and instruction to a
large number of girls, but are
making plans to still reach out in
a broader way to meet the needs
OF the community as they become
apparent, and hope that both Vi
