Another Visit From Marie?

queen Marie says she is to visit the United States
again after her period of mourning for King Fer.
dlnand is over. Just short time before she said
this, she pleaded with the people of America mot
to forget her in her sorrow.
It is not likely the people of America will forget
queen Marie. The turmoil and clan,or which sur.
rounded ner passage across the country still ring
IN the ears OF many. The bitter fight for recoeni
ton which many put up and the arguments which
punctuated her tour are well remembered by many
Of us.
i cannot be denied that Queen Marie was bic

Us chance to see what real queen looks like.
But the unsavory side of the trip fingers longest

whole thing Jared on some. The theatrcalism Of
it palled on others.
" course, the queen will receive hearty well

deserves it. But she is wise, she will avoid social
contacts IS much ~ possible There was too much
scrapping to make the trip all it should have been.

Why People Borrow Money

a recent bankers report, made after examination

workers lead the list among women borrowers and
i'remen were first in the list, of men borrowers.
Inree-fourths of the men seeking loans were mar.
lle0 according to this report and IS per cent had
oepenoents' while only 18 per cent of the women
loan seekers had dependents
Illness was the reason given most frequently for
the request OF the loan. Getting the winter supply
OF coal was second leading cause
u is not difficult to find reason for the high
rate OF borrowers among telephone girls. Most
telephone girls are required to dress beyond their
MEANS holding, as they do conspicuous seats in
most any office; and their pay envelope rarely takes
this into consideration.
Women. whether they have dependents or not
would naturally be forced to borrow the same as
men with dependents, since the responsibility of
men is considered when their wages are fixed.
whereas women are generally regarded as response
Die TO themselves alone, and the wages fixed ac
cordingly.

Labelling Divorces

here's cause waiting for champion. Tho
cause is battle against divorce rings"
Divorce rings. be it known, as sponsored by Paris
city OF divorces, are gold or platinum crcets en-
graved with two hands, not clasped, but back to
back, around ruby or diamond or emerald or pearl
or some other bauble precious enough to make a
merry jingle-jingle in jewelers. Golfers.
Battle must be done, for how can the cause of
marriage ever compete with the cause of divorce.
wnen the former gets merely an engraved circlet
with possibly few infinitesimal diamond chips
thrown in whereas divorce gets ring with really
big precious stone and chic engraving in the shape

backs turned?

. On the other hand, DR.. Cookston
found that the cause il likely to be

In the emergency, the best thing

Villages Need Teamwork
princeton, MIMI, Union)


The words. cooperation and teamwork. have beer
SO overworked for the past seven years that thew
nave almost lost their value, but the qualities and
conditions that are covered by those words are
essential to the economic prosperity of any village
or small city in this state, and Princeton is no ex
cepton.
Princeton in the past has had statewide reputa-
ton for the solidarity Of it's people, and that repu
taton is worth maintaining sA@..
While competition is keen in the villages as in
the cities, it would be we'll for the merchants and
business men here to remember that their hardest
competitors are not in Princeton but in the cities
ao' oo or 100 miles from here. The individual who
has sufficient business judgment to be strong
competitor realizes that it does not pay to abuse or
deprecate man engaged in business in the same
block That sort of play always reacts, and worse
than that it Injuries the whole community.
fortunately the world is so constituted that most
OF US cannot greatly better own conditions with
out bringing someone else up with US. Probably no
merchant in this village greatly increase his own
trade without in small measure increasing the
volume of business that goes to his competitor in
the same black with him.
rather discouraging corollary of this fact is
that some individuals profit by the situation and
ride free to fair degree Of prosperity on the ini
tiatve and generosity of the other business houses
IN the community. But grafters show their colors
IN the course Of time and do not profit in the end
because the average individual likes to show his
appreciation Of fair play
Community action is needed in promoting pros
perity and increasing the volume Of business done
in any village. The business men III many COM
munities in this state have come together and are
boosting their town, and they are getting their re-
ward The finest thing that could happen to Prince.
ton at this particular time would be to have All the
merchants get together in community enterprise,
N some one definite project, and lift together for
the town. II the majority would get back Of the
project i could be carried through successfully be-
cause no two or three individuals would feel that
they could afford to stay on the outside.
