Premier Earl of England
Opens Vegetable Stand to
Keep Home for Descendants
By Robert Musel
United Press Correspondent
London, Apr. 12 U,R) The
woman who bought a pound of
parsnips at a roadside stand in
Staffordshire murmured,
"Thanks, my lord," as she took
the bundle.
The Earl of Shrewsbury and
Waterford. Premier Earl of Eng
land and Ireland, who also car
ries the ancient titles of Vis
count Ingestre. Earl of Talbot
and Baron Talbot, rang up the
sale.
Behind him reared the classic
bulk of his ancestral home, Ing
est Hall. There the Earls of
Shrewsbury and their blood pre
decessors have lived for 800
years.
Turns to Peddling
The 35-year-old present earl,
the 21st of his line, has turned
fruit and vegetable peddler in an
attempt to save the historic hall
for his descendants.
Not all his noble friends have
been able to hold on to their an
cestral homes. Plagued by
mounting inheritance taxes and
the heaviest income taxes in the
world, they have let them go to
pay off old obligations and avoid
complete bankruptcy.
Even Lord Rothschild of the
banking family finds it difficult
to keep his big houses. He has
asked permission to pull down
moated Rushbrooke Hall, where
Queen Elizabeth held court in
1578. It takes five tons of coal a
day to heat the historic building
and two county councils have re
fused it as a gift.
Too Isolated
Rushbrooke Hall is too isolated
to allow Rothschild to follow the
example of the princess royal
King George's sister and others
of noble blood and open his home
to the public at so much a head.
The Marquess of Bath, for ex
ample, admitted 120.000 visitors
to his 100-room LonKleat house
during 1949. That brought him
about $40,000. The Duke of Dev
onshire had 110,000 tourists
tramping through his family
seat, Chatworth, last year.
the uuke of Marlborough.
who recently opened Blenheim
Castle to the public, hopes to
better even these figures. He has
a special attraction the room in
which his cousin. Winston
Churchill, was born.
Henry Hornvold - Strickland
has turned over Sizergh Castle.
Duiit in 117U, to the national
trust to prevent it falling into
ruin. He blamed "savage death
duties" for taking the home his
family had occupied for 750
years.
Other Homes Opened
Among other noteworthy
homes recently opened to the
public in the hope of saving
them for posterity are the Earl
of Derby's 400-year-old Knowley
Hall: The Duke of Northumber
land's 650-year-old Alnwick Cas
tle; Sir Cuthbcrt De Houghton's
Houghton Tower, where King
James I knighted the loin of
beef in 1617, thereby creating
sirloin sleak; and venerable Ad
lington Hall, whose great hall
is held up by two live oak trees
dating from Saxon days.
Other noblemen, like the Earl
of Shrewsbury, have gone into a
trade or business.
The Marquess of Milford Ha
ven, who recently married an
American, helps run a laundry
service. The Earl of Westmor
land, once mentioned as a possi
ble suitor of Princess Margaret,
has resigned from the army to
become a bookie, a respectable
occupation in Britain.
Others have become automo
biles salesmen, cookery school
operators, stock brokers and
journalists.
Table Rock Estates
i
Again Sponsoring
School Contest
Gold Hill, April 12 Table
Rock Estates is again sponsoring
a contest in the Gold Hill school
in grades from the seventh
through the twelfth years as
was done last year, John Day, a
member of the company, inform
ed Arthur Straus, superintend
ent of the local schools. Every
member of each class is eligible
to submit an essay.
Three prizes will be given
each class, first prize, $25, sec
ond, $15 and third, $10, making
total prizes for each ol the six
classes the amount of $50. Any
subject may be chosen on which
to write, such as recreation,
education, civic improvement or
whatever a pupil chooses. Only
restriction will be to have the
essay place special emphasis on
Southern Oregon and the Rogue
River Valley.
The contest will close May 5,
with all essays placed in the
hands of the class teachers or
advisors and will be part of the
regular English- class work.
These instructors will choose the
six best essays of each class and
will submit them to a group of
impartial judges who will select
the three best essays of the six
from each class. Judging will be
completed by May 19.
It is hoped that all the chil
dren will enter into the spirit of
the contest and submit essays.
Last year about two-thirds of the
children submitted essays.
Navy Calls Off Hunt
For Unidentified Sub
San Francisco, Apr. 12 (U.R)
The navy called off its search to
day for an unidentified subma
rine reported sighted on the sur
face 32 miles west of the Far
allon islands by the pilot of a
military air transport plane.
The navy said that a search of
the area was negative except for
a large school of whales. A navy
spokesman said "it is possible
that from a high altitude a whale
could have been mistaken for a
submarine."
