EX QUEEN ENA
FOUND 10 BE
HAPPY IN EXILE
...-MENTON, Prance (UP) The du
ties enforced on royalty make life so
miserable that ex-Queen Una of
Spain has no regrets that she has
lost her throne, according to a close
friend of the Spanish royal family
who Is vacationing here.
Basing her opinions upon many
years of observation of royal affairs
during the reign of Alfonso and
Queen Ena, the Informant says the
queen Is enjoying personal freedom
for the flrat time In her life.
"A reigning queen's life Is all
duty," she said, "and my stenogra
pher working from 9 to fl has a better
Job and a more enviable existence. I
haven't the authority to apeak for
her majesty, but I think I am aafo
In saying that she has no regret over
losing her Job as queen.
"The greatest part of a qucen'a
time Is taken up with bowing to Iron
clad court etiquette, submitting to
compulsory ceremonies that are tire
some and boring,
"Over and over they must extend
fingertips to be kissed by pompous
court officials. Even In receiving
their equals, queens or princesses
from other courts, whether on state
occasions or in private, they are de
nied the prlvilages of Intimate talks,
and must limit themselves to monot
onovia 'ready-made' conversations.
"The routine is much harder on
old queens, and these are usually the
most unhappy of all. Many queens
have been bereaved through political
assassinations and are mourning the
loss of a husband, son or brother,
although the monotonous court rou
tine must be continued. The expres
sion 'happy as a queen,' Is meaning
less, and I'm positive that Queen
Ena has no regrets but Is enjoying
the personal freedom which was de
nied to her before the revolution."

Jon, were nearlng Liverpool aboard
a cargo steamer, seeking a calm and
secure life In the English country

Miss Oow, a star witness at the
New Jersey trial of the baby's con
demned slayer, Bruno Richard Haupt-
mann, indicated she would continue
to work In the dress shop.
Ehe said she had heard from the
Lindberghs and they had asked her
to reenter their employ.
"But I don't think I'll go," she
said, "all I want to do now Is to be
allowed to live a normal life.
The Lindberghs - were the most
kindly and considerate of employers
one could ask, but I want to forget
all about the past.
I don't want money.

IE YULE
RESTORES HOLLY
NUW YORK (UP) Old-fashioned
Christmas red has staged a comeback
this year aa the popular color for the
season's greeting cards.
After several years of fantastic
color combinations and exotic de
signs tn orchid, aquamarine and sim
ilar sophisticated hues, 193S Christ
mas cards are back to the holly and
polnaett period.
There are solid-color red cards
with designs in silver and white.
There are red mountings and border
treatments. Some of the cards even
are matched with bright red envoi
op es.
Oreen Is the second reigning favor
ite, or seasonal combinations of red
and green. Blue la mainly confined
to carda of religious Inspiration, to
which Its soft colorings are especially
adapted. Combinations of gold and
beige and brown are novel and smart,
and there also are cards which spon
sor a combination of coral and bright
blue.
Holly and poinsettas are used In a
wide variety of designs as, for ex
ample, a card of white parchment,
silver st arred , over a red overl ay ,
with a giant holly .ypray In red and
silver.
Santa Clans, who has been absent
from most of the cards lately, ap
pears often this year. Smoothing his
beard of real cotton or chatting with
a hopeful gamin who offers to "Carry
yer bag. Mister," he Is depleted al
most any way except with his rein
deer. Children of today are air
minded and think he travels by
plane.
Cards of religious motif are widely
favored. Many of them are color
prints and etchings.

LONDON (UP) One of England's
quaintest trains runs dally through
the peaceful Weald of Kent and Just
over the border Into Sussex.
Comprising a small ant! ancient lo
comotive carriage of two compart
ments and sometimes a small goods
truck, this train dates back to the
primitive days of railway enterprise.
There Is an engine at each end of
the train, so that It is never turned.
When it has to go In the opposite
direction, the driver simply moves to
the other end. and away it goes.
Starting from Robertsbrldge Sta
tion, Sussex, the train goes to Head
corn, In Kent, a distance of 15 miles,
in an hour and triree-quarters.
The train seldom has a passenger
these days, though when the com
pany was formed in 1896 there was &
large passenger trade. Frequently it
slows down to allow a chicken to get
off the line, now almost overgrown
with weeds in places.
The carriage seats are uncovered
and the driver alts In the same com
partment as the passengers when
there are any.
FRANCE IS BEHIND
U. S. IN SMOKING,
REPORT REVEALS
PARIS (UP) Does this speed of
American life account for the fact
that the average American smokes
nearly three times aa mBny cigarettes
as the average Frenchman?
That Is the figure which statistic
ians of the land of Jenn Nlcot have
produced for tobacco consumption In
France, and as they have demonstra
ted that the bigger the city, the morr
cigarettes per capita are consumed. U
might seem to follow that the sedat
ive effect of the cigarette Is neces
sary to calm the jafled nerves of the
taxi -dodger.
America amokes. per person, some
1 ,000 cigarettes yearly 50 packages.
In France the figure is 379. There
must be plenty of non-smokers to
bring the average figure down to that
total, because statisticians announce
that the average for smokers Is 7.000
cigarettes a year about a pack a day.
The department of the Selne( great
er Paris) smokes the most 9.13 cig
arettes per capita per year with the
department of the Var (the hectic
Riviera) second with 807. Last on the
list Is the Haute-Lolre, completely
agricultural, where the per capita
consumption Is only 131 cigarettes a
year.
Franco's yearly cigarette consump
tion totals 17.000.000.000 megots
(butts) or slbiches (fags), enough to
load 25 mile long freight trains and
stoke the locomotives. AH that from
