what has happened once can hap
pen again. There is more to come.
We can't overlook a force like
this, even though we sometimes let
it slip our minds. That's why such
an exposition as the Parade of
Progress" is a good thing; the more
people who see It, the better. Per-
haDs when more Of us realize that
our progress has been steady and
uninterrupted, that the American
standard Of living is still higher
than that Of any nation on earth,
and that our existing institutions
are capable and forward-looking,
the less likely we will be to fall
victim to the first glib-tongued DEM
agogue to offer us Utopia.

Of our national life. particularly IN

The average citizen, absorbed in

He realizes only vaguely. If he
thinks Of it at all, how much OF his
comfort and welfare is due to the
eternal search for new facts on the

While good food, sufficient rest
and fresh air are the three funda-

that adequate nutrition. plenty Of

maintain physical fitness and in
crease resistance, thereby lessening
susceptibility to disease.
She said that the first step 10 be
taken was to look after undernour-
ished children. Because food money
mas been limited during the past few
years, today many Delaware chill
dren are undernourished and their
resistance is low, making them more
susceptible to any communicable dis
ease. Besides recommending plenty /
ol sleep and fresh air, which can be
had without cost, Miss Macdonald
made several dietary recommended
tons as follows:

King Edward would live in this neigh
borhood.
1t was rumored Edward might 60 to
Amalfi or Positano.
Count Placido Desanro, mayor Of
Sorrento, left suddenly last night for
his own city, giving rise to rumors he
might be preparing for the former
ruler.
Aristocratic circles said it is pos
'sible Edward was going to Ravello, near
Amalfl, to stay at the Villa Cimbrone
Some, remembering Edwards world
wide travels, thought he might make
his honeymoon with Mrs. Wallis
Simpson . world cruise.
Friends of the couple said they do
not expect them to visit America any
sooner than England, but 1t is pos
sible Wallis eventually might take her

over, he has an immense grit, for he
carries out everything he undertakes,
regardless of all obstacles.
His conquest of a difficult stammer
is the most striking example of this
perseverance. As an infant, he had
trouble to even say Papa" but con-
slant lessons in elocution and an in
flexible will-power have overcome this
defect so that now he can speak
publicly without much trouble and
has lost the shyness and difidence
from which he suffered as q youth
That he is not lacking in personal
courage the young duke showed in
the Battle Of Jutland, where he
served in the gun turret of the bat
tleship Collingwood, being mentioned
in dispatches, and also in the air
force, which he joined after his ex-
perience in the navy. He went to
training school, where he made his
first flight in weather which was any
thing but favorable.
The oficer in command was worried
and did not want the prince to 20
up, but Albert, when told that other
learners were going up, said: "All
right. If they 60, I 60, even if the
weather is foul" And up he went
and eventually became quite q good
pilot. His insistence In regarding
the other fellow as good rs himself
always has been characteristic Of
George vi, as the new king will be
known. and this quality has particu-
larly endeared him to those with whom
he has come in contact.
The Kings intimate friends are
few in number. but all swear by him
as man OF great personality, charm
and dignity. One Of his closest
friends Is his equerry, Sir Louis
Greig. to whom the King possibly
owes his life. Greig was . naval doc
tor when the King, . cadet on the
Osborne. was suffering from constant
Ill health which . famous doctor
diagnosed as appendicitis. He was
operated upon in 1914, but his health
didn't improve. Greig insisted the
real trouble was q duodenal ulcer
In 1917 his advice was taken. the
duke was operated upon and his
health has been good ever since. As
. result . firm friendship was estab-
lished with Greig.
