learned abroad. He made a plea for a democratic expansion of the empire and his dramatic exhorta- tion Wake up, England!" which has never been forgotten, was char acterized as one of the most force full utterances of the time
 After he became King a story was told that some one ventured to- remonstrate with King George because. as many thought, an un- due proportion of invitations to royal functions went to the army and navy. The Kings significant reply which ended further criticism along that line, was: They are the supporters of my throne. I cannot recognize it too fully"
 Democratic Expansion
 It seems that King George al ways kept in mind the idea of democratic expansion of the em- pire. for which he pleaded in his Wake up, England speech and his frequent utterances always showed an interest in the masses rather than in any particular class. Among his sayings that impressed his people were:
 Be thorough. Whatever you do, do it as well as you can. Put your whole heart and soul into it."
 Every day we recognize more fully. the importance of education, not only to the individual life, but the life of the nation.'
 Those who know the happiness of home life can sympathize with every effort made to secure similar blessings to their fellow creatures. :"
 Kindly Nature Displayed
 It is related that the King tele- graphed his sympathy and solici- tude to Ramsay Macdonald when the latter's wife was seriously ill At the time the man who became Great Britain's first Labor Prime Minister was merely leader of his party in the House of Commons. Another example of his kindly na- ture toward his subjects was his satisfying the desire of five year-old boy to see his King The father had written to the King that his son wanted to see him as he passed a certain railroad sta- tion and when the royal train reached the designated place King George showed himself at one of the car windows and waved his hand at the child.
 Effort to Avert War
 King George made every possible effort to avert the outbreak of the World War in 1914. When his per- sonal appeals to the Emperors of Russia and Germany were of no avail and his own country was plunged into the war he issued proclamation mobilizing the Brit

ish army and announced an un- wavering determination to fight until victorious. The King and Queen and members of their fam fly set themselves to lending royal influence and encouragement tc every form of national activity ir aid of the fighting forces.
 The royal household was placed practically on war rations and strict economy measures were put in force. The King announced that he would quit the use of all alcoholic liquors for the duration of the war and the example was followed by the Lloyd George Cabinet. So- ciety function and horse racing were disapproved. The King and Queen made frequent visits to munition factories and shipyards to encourage the workers and when the wounded began returning from the front they went to various hos pitalS throughout the British Isles to cheer the wounded and comfort the dying soldiers. The King also went several times to France to see his soldiers and personally vis- ited regions devastated during the bombing of London by German air. planes and Zeppelins.
 German Title Tabooed
 In 1915 King George ordered the names of the German and Aus trian rulers stricken from the Order of the Garter and in July, 1917, he abandoned all German titles for himself and family. At the same time he issued proclama- tion to the effect that henceforth the royal house of Great Britain and Ireland would be known as the House of Windsor instead of the House of Saxe-C -Coburg- Gotha.
 On April 20, 1917, the King at- tended a cathedral ceremony at London celebrating the entrance of the United States into the war. A year later he became the first British sovereign in history to par ticipate in the celebration of Am erican Independence Day. It was then recalled that it was during the reign of his royal ancestor, George III that England lost her American colonies.
 Messaged Wilson
 When the Armistice was signed November II, 1918, bringing to an end the more than four years of the World War, King George spoke to great crowds from the portico of Buckingham Paace and later, at tended thanksgiving service in London. In a message to President Wilson he said:
 Tn this glorious hour when the long struggle of nations for right, justice and freedom is at last crowned by a triumphant peace, I greet you, MT. President, and the great American people, in the name of the British nation.
 At a time when fortune seemed to frown, and the issues of the war trembled in the balance, the Am erican people stretched out the hand of fellowship to those who on this side of the ocean were battling for a righteous cause Light and hope at once shone brighter in our hearts and a new day dawned
 Together we have fought to happy end; together we lay down our arms in proud consciousness of valiant deeds nobly done.
 MT. President, it is on this day, one of our happiest thoughts that

 The forerunner of the new vo- que is Beloved" coming Tues day to the Dream Theatre, an ep- ic drama with music which pre- sents John Boles and Gloria Stu art in featured roles. The story presents the romantic career of struggling composer throughout his lifetime, and before con- stantly changing background CO., vers span of an entire century In the first scene Boles is seen in his cradle as baby, and in the final fade-out he appears as an old man of 96.
