There is much ado right now over the visi^ to
this country of Queen Marie of Rumania. She is
touted as the most beautiful queen. We are told
she prefers American cigarets,. that she wants Amer
ica to love her, that 6he has refused to use any bnt
American soap in the royal bath. Already, ire learn
she is asking for apple pie and American oysters.
Remarkable what a kick the American public can
get out of this more or less tommy rot because it has
to do with a queen.
But Marie is not all fickle. There is another
side to her, one which would endear her to the
hearts of the people of this great nation if it were
called generally to their attention. This queen,
unlike the snob most of us imagine a monarchist
to be, is courageous, tender of heart and with a
great devotion for her people. As we read in the
New York World:
“ No woman in all Europe,” Lady Astor said
“ lias a better war record than Queen Marie. She
showed the greatest courage, tenderness, and de
votion. Do you know that she went into places
where nobody else would go — into leprous build
ings and villages filled with influenza, where, the
dead were piled high and people dying of disease,
and others were afraid to enter!
“ What she did is amazing; but in all her writ
ings which are read in America slje never spoke of
these accomplishments. She has never written a
great story about it — merely fancy things.
“ She has the blood of all the Czars in her veins,
and is a courageous and powerful q^oman of great
charm. She is like a warm fire when go go into a
room. There is nothing small or mean about her,
and she is like Catherine the Great. Every one
about her. loves her.”
It is this side of Queen Marie that we should
see and love, not her beauty, her bobbed hair or her
preference for American cigarets.

. What would happen if a giant switch could
shut off electric current from world use today!
E. B. Criddle of the Southern Sierras Power com
pany, Riverside, California, shows the depeadence of
humanity on electricity. He says: “ We are today
living in what may well he termed the ‘electric
age’; the age of all others most replete with oppor
tunity, action, romance. It haa been called by some,
and I think miscalled, the 'jazz a g e / but, is not
this very jazz a feeble if perchance a misdirected
effort, to get into step, shall we say, into synchron
ism, with the spirit of the times; to keep up with
the inevitably swift pace of this age of electricity
which has linked together in intimate and immediate
contact the uttermost ends of the earth.
“ E—Embodiment of mystery.
“ L—Lightener of burdens.
“ E—Energy; light, heat, power.
“ C—Carrier of winged messages.
“ T—Towering above all other forces.
“ R—Revolutionizing modern industry.
‘ ‘ I —Irresistible, incomprehensible.
Headlines in a Brigham City, Utah, paper read,
“ Beat Growers Get Increase.”
How much better this sounds than to read a
headline, “ Due to Foreign Competition, Sugar Beet
Prices Must be Reduced.”
The tariff on sugar is a perfect illustration of
the equalizing tax which is necessary to prevent a
cheaper labor foreign product from destroying a
home industry. The theoretical amount the individ
ual would save' on duty-free sugar is infinitesimal
compared to the amount he would lose in wages or
business, if an agricultural industry such as beet
sugar production was destroyed for want of reason
able tariff protection.
It is our desire to trade with foreign coun
tries, both as buyers and sellers, but as buyers and
sellers, it is essential that this trade be on un
equalized basis, so that American laborers and farm
ers will still have jobs and the wherewithal to
bny the products which our foreign neighbors can
sell in this country.
