Eyen the bankers get red in the face when they hold a note long overdue. Mussolini thinks that Italy will regain the glory of the Caesars, and that fascism will.accomplish it. Fascism is just a fad, a fad that unquestionably did a lot of good, but its purpese will soon be fulfilled, and then it will vanish into thin air. When NATIONAL EDITORIAL | PRESIDENTS’ FAMILIES Some faets regarding the family rela- ! tions of our presidents may be of interest, ! as they are probably little known to the! ; average reader. How many, for example, | could tell off-hand how many presidents {never married? The answer is, only one, | ; Buchanan. | All the rest were married, and five of | | them married twice, Tyler, Fillmove, Pen- pramin Harrison, Roosevelt and Wilson. | Seven married widows, Washington, Jef-' ferson, Madison, Jackson, Fillmore, B. Har- j rison and Wilson, the last three taking widows as their second wives, The wives of Jefferson, Jackson, Van Buren and Arthur died before their hus- bands became president. Cleveland went into office as a bachelor, but was married during his first term. Washington, Madison, Jackson, Polk and Harding were childless. Ty..r was the father of 14 children, seven by each of his wives. W. H. Harrison was the father of 10, Hayes was the father of eight, Jefferson, Taylor and Roosevelt were the fathers of six each. Two. widows of presidents remarried. { Mrs. Cleveland married T. J. Preston, Jr., a professor of archeology, in 1913, about five years after her husband’s death. Mrs. Benjamin Harrison married James Blaine Walker, Jr., her third husband, in 1921, when she was 64 years of age. The most unusual circumstance con- nected with marital relations of any presi- dent concerned Andrew Jackson. Believing that Mrs. Lewis Robards had been divorced } from her husband, he married her in 1791, only to discover that the decree of divorce had not yet been granted. Later the de- cree was issued and Jackson remarried Mrs. Robards in 1794.. SIDELIGHTS By MARCY B. DARNALL, Former Editor of The Key.
