one lived That was a daughter Mary No
woman had reigned in England since Matilda
and she wasn't very encouraging example.
After seventeen years Henry began to
have scruples about living with his brothers
wife He considered his failure to have son
as a punishment from Heaven.
The real reason why he wanted his free
dom was his passion for Anne Boleyn, a lady Of
GATHERINGS court, and his urgent desire to
have a son by her So he divorced Catherine.
Anne was the only woman Henry really
loved, though to be sure, he had been fond OF
his Spanish queen.
Henry secretly married Anne after waiting
seven years. He appointed Cranmer Arch
bishop of Canterbury and finally his marriage
was recognized
A few months later, Princess Elizabeth
was born and Mary his daughter by Catherine,
was declared illegitimate.
Catherine caused some trouble by refusing
to surrender her title as queen, she retired
to Kimbolton Palace in the country. where
the remainder of her life was spent In misery
Soon Henry began to tire Of Anne. He
accused her of carrying on with various men
and had her beheaded.
Meanwhile the kings eye strayed towards
Jane Seymour lady Of the court He didn't
take long to make up his mind. They were
married eleven days after Anne's execution
Urgency had made Henry callous. He wanted
a son and seventeen months later Jane gave
him one. He was a puny baby, but he was
undoubtedly alive and legitimate.
Henry's Joy knew no bounds but Jane soon
died of chill and overeating strange foods.
The king then married the ugly Anne Of
Cleves and the moment Henry looked at her
he knew he had made a mistake. To avoid
offending Anne's relations he married her.
seven months later they were divorced.
Henrys ventures in matrimony led one Of
his contemporaries to say that marriage was
like beleaguered fortress-those that were in
it wanted to get out and those that were out
wanted to get in. Henry never could make up
his mind

-FOUR centuries ago, a SMALL pretty and
p plump young girl of twenty mounted the
! scaffold in London and had her head
chopped off Her name was Catherine Howard
and the behavior of which she had been
accused was objectionable in Queen.
Her indiscretions had been numerous
among them her music master and her one
time fance. Henry was overcome with grief
when Archbishop Cranmer passed on the news
TO him and Catherine was executed.
Henry had had grotesquely bad luck with
his wives His bitter disappointments made
him eat like a horse and his inability to take
any exercise made him enormously fat.
What he really needed was nurse he
decided so he married Catherine Parr who
had had some experience in nursing, Two
of her husbands had died on her hands.
There is no certain portrait of Nurse Parr
The one on this page is supposed to be of her
and was, like all the others, taken from an
absorbing book called, Henry VIII and His
Wives" by Elizabeth Senior published by
Collins of London, with eleven color plates.
SO we don't know for certain what Queen
Catherine Parr looked like. Maybe she was
homey and too wise TO be painted.
At any rate, she outlived Henry long
enough TO acquire a fourth husband. Possibly,
Henry thought any woman who could outlive
two previous husbands was certain match
for him, And so it proved
Henry started his marrying career with
the widow Of his elder brother Arthur. She
was Catherine Of Aragon, daughter Of the
clever Ferdinand and the pious Isabella, who
financed Columbus voyages to America.
England needed Spanish alliance and it
suggested that Arthur's widow marry the
new heir, Henry. But Henrys father thought
it would be a good idea to keep Catherine
widow for while, but six months later Henry
got his first wife.
She was six years older than Henry, but
he loved her anyway. He wanted a son, a
male heir TO inherit the throne
II was a lucldess marriage, however.
Catherine had five or six children and only

Merry Go Round
BY DREW PEARSON
(Maior Robert 8. Allen on active duty)

WASHINGTON.-It will pfoba-
bly, be denied, but the inside fact
is that U. S. Ambassador Bill Phil
lips came back from India with a
blunt, in spots bitter, report against
the British
He felt that the United States
should do something about the
fostering Indian political situation,
that the Indian army and people
could not be a force in the war
until the question was cleaned up.
Also he was straight-from- the
shoulder in his criticism of Field
Marshal Wavell whom he feels is
not suited for the job and should
be removed.
Phillips not only gave this report
to the President, but he also had
a conference with Prime Minister
Churchill last week.
Ambassador Phillips report is
most significant, because he has
been pro-British, served as Minis
ter to Canada, has been a consis-
tent believer that our policy must
90 hand-in-h hand with the British.
Phillips is mild not addicted to
crusading, but a thorough, consci-
entious diplomat, reporting what he
believes to be the facts.
Among other things, Phillips re-
ported that mediation between diff
ferent Indian factions and the Brit
ish Government was possible now;
also desirable He feels that if some
such move is not undertaken now,
he should not &c back to India.
nor should any other U. S. Am
bassador, since the presence of an
American envoy would be taken as
the stamp of U. S. approval for
British policy.
What the President said to
Churchill on the Indian problem is
his secret. But it is known tn I
: Roosevelt has hoped for a year that
the British would do something
about India However, he also feels
very strongly that the United
States should not interfere in Bri-
aims colonial problems.
Meanwhile, the British, with an
army large enough to handle any
problem inside India, seem content
merely to sit on The lid-despite
American pleas that the Burma
Road must be reopened and de-
spite the fact that Indian troops
will not fight the Japs whole
heartedly unless they have small
