Silver Anniversary for Dutch Queen;
Seeking Victoria's Long Reign Record
BY MILTON BRONNER

London, Feb. 17.-Late next sum-
mer the citizens of the little kingdom
of Holland will celebrate their Queen
Wilhelmia's forty-third birthday and
the silver anniversary of her reign.
She is the only woman in Europe who
rules a country in her own right and
who did aot attain the title by mar
rying king.
King Alfonso of Spain is the only
ruler in Europe who acceded to the
throne before she did. He became
king the day he was born. But
since he did not really rule until
later, Wilheimina has had longer
continuous reign than any living
sovereign-2J years.
As she is only 43 and healthy, she
bids fair TO rival the long reign of
Queen Victoria of Britain who
mounted the throne in 1888 and held
scebter until her death IS years later.
The sturdy, independent, seml-re-
publican Dutch say that the best
thing about their queen is that so
little is heard about her. She is con-
tent to let her ministers and PGrlia-
ment run the country.
Though she leads simple life in
the plain little palace in The Hague,
she has an enormous income from
her crown lands and possessions in
the East Indies. 1t is estimated she
draws down above five million dol
lars annually.
Wilhelmina isSa womanly woman.
She loves her home life and rejoices
in gardens and flowers. She is an
omniverous reader of books in the
original-Dutch, German, French.
English and Italian.
When. 90 years ago, she married
the German Prince Henry of Neck
lenburg, there was feeling in Hol-
land that she would be very much
under German influence. But Will

We Women
THOU SHALT NOT PLAY.
BY BETTY BRAINERD

There is a town in the West that
has a mayor who was a preacher un-
til he ran for office. Upon being elect,
cd he decided to be a good fellow"
He fraternized freely, took to drink
ing, was almost impeached and was
finally divorced by his wife.
There is a nearby town that has a
preacher who believes in calling a
spade a spade. Most of us make mis-
takes and sometimes we call something
or somebody spade that really isn't
spade.
This particular preacher recently
mounted his pulpit and deprecated the
tendency which mel have of glOrify-
ing women. He said that men were
neither better nor worse and in this,
of course. he was right.
Then he drew a parallel between
the vices and virtues of both and
pounded his fist emphatically as he
made the point that women have tax
en- to gambling with an alarming zeSt.
There are more bridge clubs" he
said, than baby nurseries. Bridge
has so taken hold upon the modern
woman that it threatens to undermine
the finest qualities of wOmanhOod.
Women are also playing poker"
Here he drew long breath. rubbed
the palms of his hands. and them made
his climatic statement:
women" he said. drawing n long
dramatic breath, ARE even shooting
craps"
1t may be true that there arc more
bridge clubs than baby nurseries but
| see no cause for alarm so long as
there are more babies than bridge
clubs. Il do not even believe the
preacher has discovered anything new.
Almost every woman is guilty of hay
ing gambled as a girl. The game of
jacks is gamble.
have visited the town in which
the second preacher lives. have also
visited the town of which the. former
preacher is now mayor. They are both
interesting studies and in n measure
are typified by the preacher who
thinks women are fast going to the
dogs and the mayor who tried to be q
good fellow" and failed.

The publication of the biennial report,
The Regeneration of the American
Postal System" covering a period ex-
tending from March 4, 1921, to
March 4. 1923. Results of sweeping
economies effected by Postmaster
General Work ARE demonstrated by
the decline in the annual amount of
deficit in that department.
In 1920-21, the postal deficit left
by Postmaster General A. S. Burle-
son was ISL 1857 ,3S7.0S. In 1922,
the postal deficit was reduced to $780,
S15,400.36. During the current fis-
cal year, 1929. the postal deficit
will be S30,000,000, the report to the
White House states, and during the
coming fiscal year, there will be no
deficit.
Since the new administration was
unable to raise postal charges upon
any Of the various classes of mail
matter to increase revenues TO offset
heavy losses, the only course remain
ing for the new administration TO fol-
low was that of rigid economy. This
was effected, the report states, by

Finds Morale at Low Ebb.
Equally important as the postal
finances" the postmaster general re-
ports, has been the question of the
restoration of an efficient mail serv-
ice to the American public. Due
principally TO the careless handling
of the mails, hardness in its dispatch
and indifference as to whether delays
occurred in its delivery. the solution
of this problem resolved itself into a
revival of the morale of the $4,000
workers of the postal service that had
fallen to a low ebb."
This was done, the report continues,
by inviting employees throughout the
country to present their grievances
10 the postmasters of their particular
offices. who in turn were instructed
TO rectify wrongs, whenever possible.
The human element was recognized.
the report stated, and spirit of part
nership was fostered. A nationwide
campaign was instituted TO improve
the physical welfare of postal work
ers and to provide for their health
and comfort.

case, service will be granted, the re-
port stated. The department has
recommended to Congress that a law
be enacted to establish motor vehicle

"The business done by the depart

Dortmund, March 1o.-A French
war court in Werden has fined
Prince Frederick Wilhelm Eur Lippe
1.000.000 paper marks for carrying a
blackjack in territory occupied by the
French. He is one Of the minor Ger
man princes and came from Berlin
to visit friends in the Ruhr district.
Knowing that the police had been
disarmed and expelled and that the
streets were full of night providers,
he left his money and gold watch at
home. but carried n blackjack or
loaded section of rubber which the
Germans call "gumminknappel" and
refer to as the national weapon of
Westphalia and Upper Silesia.
When arrested by the French the
prince was returning to his friends
home from a party at about 4 o'clock
in the morning. He was stopped by
French civilian agent who asked
for his papers. The prince was asking
the civilian for his authority when
a French patrol approached and he
ran. He was overtaken and placed
in the Werden prison. The prince
was accused of nationalist agitation
against the French. but this count
was withdrawn and he was fined
100000 marks for carrying a black
jack.
The Hague convention provides that
occupntional forces may take meas
ures 10 assure the safety of the
troops The German law also forbids
the carrying of weapons and so the
French prosecutor asked for n years
imprisonment and n fine of 10000
600 marks. The prince said it would
have been cheaper to have been held
up by bandits.
