Queens Brother
Latest Visitor.
The datest distinguished visitor to
Washington is the Hon. DAVID
Bowes-Lyon, youngest brother OF
Queen Elizabeth of Great Britain,
and her devoted buddy in the days
of their childhood at CLAIMS Castle,
where the Lyon family have lived
for over 600 years. Elizabeth ano
David as children were in direct
contrast in all but set purpose TO
have a jolly good time, and they
seem always to have shared their
iovs and sorrows-especlaly Wnen
it came to discipline.
They are said to have been beau
tiful children; she with the traol-
tional Irish blend of dark hair and
intensely blue eyes, while David was
ruddy with blue eyes ana goloen
curls, They came from large fam
ily of 10, in which the Queen says
the daughters were oonglng!y
enough to be born at such intervals
that each formed a pair with one
of the brothers. The eldest sur
swing daughter and the eldest son
had but year between them. Then
came three boys who played together,
then a girl-who became Lady Rose
Leveson- Cover - and her brother
Michael. and then the Queen and
her brother David.
Boy Declared Endowed
With Second Sight,
David is the one who was SAID as
a child to have the uncanny SCOT
tish gift of second sight. during
the third year of the first World
War his elder brother, Michael, was
reported by the War Office as killed.
David protested that Michael was
not dead, and that he had seen him
on two different occasions; that he
was in a big house surrounded with
fir trees; that he was very III ana
his head was tied up in a cloth.
David refused to wear mourning
for his brother, and three months
later his brother recovered his men
tai powers sufficiently to let his
family know that he was in prison
hospital in Germany.
Glamis Castle is probably the old
est inhabited house in the British
Isles, and it was up and down its
narrow stone stairways and through
its dimly lit rooms that the Queen
and her brother David romped,
frightening the servants and some
times even themselves. The petition
in the Scotch litany, From GhoulieS
and Ghostees, and long-legged beast
les and things that go flop in the
night-Good Lord, deliver u.s." ap-
peared to have no terrors for them

 Treasury officials said Disney hadn't been paid anything yet for the movie, and it was not clear how he would be paid if the Senate fol- lows the House in rejecting the ap- propriation request.
 It was pointed out that Disney might be paid from one of tL, emergency funds given President Roosevelt within the past year or from $26,000,000 appropriation for the treasury's defense savings bond division.
 The anti-deficiency act of 1906 prohibits contracts and obligations to spend money without congress sional appropriation, but deficiency appropriations have been frequent in recent years to finance govern ment emergency expenditures for relief or national defense.

NOW EVEN OLD ST. VALENTINE HAS "JOINED UP'

Wars come and wars go, /" but young love goes on forever. So, knowing that it's quite likely that the lad of your heart is a sol dier, sailor or marine, St. Valentine has fixed up some extra special cards this year. There are cards addressed to doughboy darlings, like that illus trated at left and others especially designed to send to sailor sweethearts, like the one at right. There is quite an array of service cards available and you shouldn't have any trouble expressing your romantic sentiments in any mood you like-serious, frivolous or humorous. In addition, of course, there are scads and scads of regular" val entines for non service folk, including, of all things, a valentine ad- dressed to Grandpa!
