King Gustav v of Sweden
faces war on his doorstep as
he nears 80. The popular Swed-
ish ruler Is the oldest monarch in
Europe-and, among the most &C
tive.
Ascending the throne on Dec. 8,
1907, on the death of his father,
Gustaf Cancelled the elaborate
ceremonies saying 1.-THE money
can be spent more usefully else
where" That attitude has been
the key to his policies ever since.
Two things have made Gustaf
especially popular, his ability to
keep Norway out of the first
World War and his drive for a
new and stronger Scandinavia.
When the war broke out in
1914 Gustaf Immediately declared
Sweden would be neutral and he
brought about the historic meet
ing at Malma of the three Scandi-
navian monarchs.
Caught between the allies and
Germany, he has striven desper-
ately to keep Sweden neutral
again.
Doctors call Gustaf the "mira-
Gle" king. Nearing 80, he is a re-
markable fpecimen of helath, en-
cages in many athletic activities.
His favorite sport is tennis. He
is the only athlete of royal blood
ever to hold a national champi-
onship.

Denmark democratic King
Christian x probably will not
stroll without guards again in the
streets of the picturesque Copen-

That has been Christians habit,
mixing with his poorest subjects
as he ambled about the capital.
Six and one-half feet, broad
shouldered erect figure at TO-,
Christian is familiar sight to his
people. lie is the talleSt monarch.
On assuming the throne just %
years ago at the death of his IA
Their he sent a brief message to
the people, saying, IT hope you
will show me the same confidence
and respect as you game him."
Denmark did precisely that.
Christians road has been diff
cult since his accession. His
GROWING achievement came in
1920 when, mounted on a white
horse, he rode across the frontier
into Schleswig, which had been
returned to Denmark after Sc
years under German rule.
Since then he had guided Den
mark through depression, and
worked to counter increasing Nazi
pressure.
On his 51st birthday he was
decorated for bravery by the
French government for his active
work in the rescue of a French
steamer wrecked off the coast OF
Greenland.

The Greatest Show On Earth,
with its sawdust lemonade and air.
conditioned comfort, is beginning
another season. Ever since colonial
days, when several English show
men brought, small circus troupes to
the United States, tent shows in this
country have struggled through all
sorts of hardships, bucking them
and always surviving, to carry on
next season bigger and better than
ever"
Now, with growing zone restric-
tons in cities, space in which to
hold the big show Is fast becoming
it's No. 1 bugaboo. Soon it may be
impossible for the circus to exhibit
in large cities at all, except in bus
mess or industrial zones, which are
undesirable at night. Most of them
are dark and, therefore, Stunned by
women and children. Also people
hesitate to leave their cars parked
in unlighted areas. More and more,
cities and towns are enacting laws,
which are forcing the tent shows
into the suburbs or outskirts, far re-
moved from the center of popula-
ton.
There are other problems which
are now looked upon by showmen as
menaces. Most of them can be over
come. But whether the circus can
hurdle the barriers that are being
erected by coming commissions and
continue to present to children the
thrill that comes but once g year."

floated many of the governments
bond issues in Frankfurt and Am
sterdam. After Lincoln's death,
Seligman was instrumental IN
getting a pension for Mrs. Lin
coin. Adolphus S. Solomons, one
of the earliest Jewish residents OF
Washington was often consulted
by Lincoln for Solomons' firm did
a large part of the governments
printing. He helped in arranging
Lincoln's two inaugurations and
is said to have gone over the
proofs of the invitations with the
President. It was Solomons' print
ing establishment that the last
photograph of Lincoln, taken on
the day of his assassination, was
made-the picture showing the
President sharpening one of Solo
mons pencils for Lincoln's son.
Solomons later helped organize
the American Red Cross.
Lincoln's death evoked wide
spread grief among the members
of B'nai Birth. Julius Hammer
slough, an old Springfield friend
of Lincoln's, who had helped start
the Springfield Lodge, took an ac-
tive part in the campaign for the
erection of the Lincoln monument
in Springfield. He was given the
special assignment by the nation
al monument committee of serv-
ing as agent to raise funds among
Jews. Sir Moses Ezekial, then a
young soldier in the defeated Con-
federate army, fashioned one of
the first busts Of Lincoln after
his death, drawing on the i'm
preston Lincoln made on him
when the President entered Rich
mond in 1865. It was Ezekiel,
long a member of B'nai Birth,
who later sculptured the Statue
of Religious Liberty, which B'nai
Birth presented to the people of
the United States in 1876 on the
Centennial of American independ-
ence.
