A GONDOLIER.. MUSICAL Last Times Tonight HEATRE BlL.J DEAD MONARCH DEMOCRATIC IN “ENTIRE REISN Writers Pay Great Tribute to British Ruler— Class by Himself oI Phae (Conu e learned, abroad. He made a plea for a democratic expansion of the empire and his dramatic exhorta- ' tion “Wake up, England!” which has never been forgotten, was char- acterized as one of the most force- ful utterances of the time. After he became King a story was told that some one ventured to remonstrate with King George because, as many thought, an un- due proportion of invitations to royal functions went to the army and navy. The King's significant reply which ended further criticism along that line, was: “They are the supporters of -my throne. I cannot recognize it too fully.” Democratic Expansion It seems that King George al- ways kept in mind the idea of democratic expansion of the em- pire for which he pleaded in his “Wake up, England” speech and his frequent utterances always showed an interest in the masses rather than in any particular class. Among his sayings that impressed his people were: “Be thorough. Whatever you do, do it as well as you can. Put your whole heart and soul into it.” “Every day we recognize more fully. the importance of education, not only to the individual life, but the life of the nation.” “Those who know the happiness of home life can sympathize with every effort made to secure similar blessings to their fellow creatures.”| Kindly Nature Displayed i It is related that the King tele- graphed his sympathy and solici- tude to Ramsay MacDonald when | the latter's wife was seriously ill.| At the time the man who became!

In commemoration of their fif- teen years' unselfish service in the behalf of the Holy Trinity Cathed- ral and St. Luke’s Church, Dean and Mrs. C. E. Rice were guests of honor last night at a reception given by the Trinity Guild in conjunction with the St. Luke's Parish, in Trin- ity Hall between 9 and 11 o'clock. Many friends from beyond the limits of the two parishes thronged the gaily - decorated hall to pay homage to the distinguished couple whose missionary record in Alaska dates back to September of 1902, when Dean Rice was first stationed at Circle and Fort Yukon. The Rev. David Waggoner, also a veteran in the missionary field, paid homage to his fellow-worker in a short but memorable speech, in which also he praised Mrs. Rice as “the power behind the lines.” Appearing on the program were: Ralph Wagggner, who sang two so- los accompanied by Carol Beery Davis; Alaska McChesney, who played the violin to the accompani- ment of Helen Torkelson; and Mrs. L. P. Dawes, who recited two dra matic poems of her own compo: tion: “Let Me Not Die” and “Se questered Spot.” Refreshments were served by a committee consisting of Mrs. Sam Feldon, Mrs. John Jones, and a sel- ected committee of Trinity Guild, and Mesdames J. R. Guerin, Charles Fox, Frank Pearce and Glen Kirk- ham, of Douglas. LAMPS! The w‘ly‘ to judge an orange is by the quantity and qual. ity of juice it gives.
