Their PRINCESS ILEANA, BRIDE T0 BE, ADMIRED FOR HER PERSONALITY}, Variving my own car. It is worth all Her Love of Outdoor Acti and Work for Rumanian Girls Are Noted es By CHARLES STEPHENSON SMITH (Chief of Foreign Service of The Associated Press) Princess Ileana’s approaching wed- ding is awaited with interest by an admiring world. And the interest is not because she has the blood of the Hohenzollerns and the Romanoffs and the Windsors in her veins. It is not because she is a beautiful princess who will have a royal wed- ding attended by so many figures who have been prominent in the melodramatic snarl in which King Carol has involved the Rumanian royal family of recent years. The world admires Ileana for her wholesome personality, for her love of outdoor activities and the unsel- fish and democratic manner in which she has sought. to brighten the livos of girls in Rumania regardless of class. Automobiling, skating, skiing, swimming, horseback riding, yachting, golfing, tennis and flying have left Tleana little time for pink teas and Is Anti-Flapper Type ‘When the charming 17 year prin- cess visited the United States with her mother in 1926, her healthful complexion, free from make-up, and her simple girlish wardrobe were gen- erally commented on by the press. In an age of flappers and make-up Tleana, was just a beautiful, simple girl with lips which needed no rouse and lovely natural skin. And five years have worked little change in her appearance. It comes as no surprise that Prin- cess Ileana should have a courtship in the air and choose a professional filer, Archduke Anton of Austria, as her fiance. Her prospective husband is an aeronautic engineer as well as & practical flyer, and is associated with builders of airships in Barcel- ona, where his family fled after the Hapsburgs were overthrown. Princess Ileana has not qualified yet as an air pilot, but that will prob- ably come very shortly after her marriage and it would not be sur- prising if she and her husband were to become the European Lindberghs, She has already qualified as a navigator and commands her own yacht when she and her mother sail on the Black Sea, but mastery of machinery has not been easy for Princess Ileana. Subdues Balky Autos “I am not of a mechanical turn,” she once told the writer. “Nicky (her brother, Prince Nicholas) has the mechanical brains for our family. He is always studying machinery and over books of mechanics. He has tried to teach me. He can build automobiles and he hasn’t much pa- tience with me. “I finally learned how to drive, but it was a job.

But even Prince Nicholas was so much older that he always patronized het and joked about her youth. She was the kid sister when they were traveling about the United States and when Prince Nicholas condescended to take her as a part- ner, he twitted her about her danc- ing. , Earnest Social Worker It is as @ social worker that men and women the world over particular- ly admire this delightful Balkan prin- cess. Formal society has never fig- ured greatly in her life. She has been too busy with leadership of the Girl Guides and the Y. W. C. A. and va- rious charities for the improvement | 0f-conditions in her war-torn coun- try, to give much time to society. Wars and the aftermath of wars are all this 22-year-old girl has known. ‘When she was only five Rumania was plunged into the Second Balkan war. A year later Rumania became an armed camp in its effort to maintain {pean countries allied with Rumania gathered in the king's temporary home and all the royal family took up work for the relief of sick and wounded soldiers and refugees. Helps Mother's Pleas Princess Ileana was the constant companion of Queen Marie in those days. When the queen went to the Versailles conference at Paris in 1019 to plead for more liberal treatment for Rumania, she took Ileana with her, and the charming little brown- haired girl with deep violet eyes won the hearts of Clemenceau, Lloyd George, President Wilson and other leaders with whom Queen Marie pleaded for boundaries more desirable for her country. | Princess Ileana was educated by an| English governess in Rumania and) was in a girls’ school in England for! one year. English has always been the language which the Rumanian royal family spoke at home. Con- sequently Princess Ileana has not had extensive practice in German and speaks it with an accent which amuses her German relatives and will probably be equally amusing to her Austrian husband.
