On the King's desk are two |, + telephones--one direct to his secre- tary and the other equipped for connection to any telephone in the world. The study also has a radio receiving set which will enable the King to listen to almost any station anywhere. In the King's bedroom is a dress- ingles t and tall-boy in English walnut with sycamore handles. The bed is covered with a dull gold spread and has a side bookcase and telephone. Full length mirrors are fitted to the dressing chest.

"The other coaches of the 14-car train will comprise a lounge, din- ing saloons, kitchens and baggage car. The pilot train, also of 14 cars, which will precede the Royal train over all routes, will. accommodate government and rallway officials and the press, Wireless communication between the two trains and a high speed short wave wireless transmitter and keying équipment, as well as a short wave receiver on the pilot train, are modern visions for the safety and conve! ce of the Roy- al family.

Carson of Ottawa, The Movie Column By HELEN BANNERMAN Canadian Press Staff Writer It looks as if the future holds few- er serials, a fact which is causing alarm in the suburbs and smaller towns where the patrons dearly love to watch the good guys and the bad guys whooping it up. Universal, one of the three stu- dios which have been making ser- fals, has cut them off its produc- tion schedule in an attempt to step up into the quality picture field. It's serials like "Hop Harrigan," Jesse James Rides Again" and "G- Men Never Forget" which have kept the small town turnstiles clicking. Universal itself was built on the profits of a serial, "Lucille Love," and during the depression serials kept the studio's financial head above water, In spite of present high produe- tion costs, serials make gratifying people everywhere but in Great Bri- tain like having their nerves fraz- zled to exhaustion by the suspense of the weekly episode. President-day serials generally cost between $200,000 and $300,000 and return two or three times thelr cost, Republic's "The Lone Ranger" eventuallly brought in $1,150,000 for an investment of $285,000, This serial even made a hit in Great Bri- tain where it was pasted together named "Hi Yo, Silver." Million-dollar earnings were com- mon when serials were younger and cheaper, "Lucille Love," made in 1914 for $30,000, * drew $1,500,000. "The Perils of Pauline," starring Pearl White, was another big earn- er of the time and brought Miss White herself an income which fin- ally' totalled $10,000,000, Miss White was the only serial queen who became rich from them. In her contract calling for a salary of $60 a week she had inserted a clause giving her a small percentage of 'the picture, Republic and Columbia, the two studios still making serials, have no intention of stopping. The only rule for making them is "Keep it Moving!" Characters speak only as & last resort so as not to hinder the action. One serial writer working on "Flash Gordon Con- quers the Universe," suggested one of the hero's friends be allowed to say before rushing to get him, "Il be back in a flash with Flash when last heard of he was in the United States Marines.'

The Festive Hills (The New York Times) "About this time of year," in the almanacker's language, expect to see country folk, and those who can reach the country easily, out sur- veying the holiday decoration prose pect. They have their eye out for bush and berry, creeper and vine, to grace the festive door and the Christmas mantel. Ground pine and ground cedar, those venerable creepers of the deep woodlands, are on their lst-- to be plucked with restraint and discrimination, that there -may be more in years to come. The full- grown evergreens, from cedar to pine, from spruce to hemlock, with bough and branch and cone, are properly noted, The greens that mean continuity must be the back- ground for the festive decorations. But there must be color as well Holly, of course, stands in the front rank But s0 many others have harvested holly indiscriminately in years gone by that there's not much left in these parts. But there's mountaiy holly, which the botan- ists call Ilex monticola, for those who can find it. And there's ilex verticillata, better known as black alder or winterberry, lavish with its bright berries and spectacular in many a woodland, And there's the humble partridge berry, lovely min- ature, for those who are willing to search and have the judgment to take it sparingly. There's also the orange beauty of bittersweet, now somewhat past its prime. 'There's no lack of color for those who know where to look and how sparingly to harvest. The hills may be brown from a distance, but those who know those hills know too that there is the color of holiday and Jestin waiting for a friendly Traditional New Year's Gifts Were Sacred The Druids distributed branches of the sacred mistletoe, cut with peculiar ceremonies, as New Year's gifts to the people and the Saxons observed the day with gifts and fes- tivals. The Roman custom of taking gifts to the emperor was introduced into . | England as early as the time of Henry III. Queen Elizabeth is sup- posed to have supplied herself with her jewels and hardware almost en- tirely from these gifts. As late as 1692 the English nobil- ity were accustomed every year to send to the king a purse containing d Under the Tudors and the Stuarts it was the habit of all classes to give presents to friends with the best wishes for the New Year. Ladies received presents of gloves or pins which were then expensive. Sometimes the gifts were wrapped in money and from this practice we have the term 'pin money."

It is up to the doctor to say whether a certain set of symp- toms means this or that and at no time is his responsibility graver than when it comes to distinguish- ng between cancer of the stomach and stomach ulcer. A wrong decision about this means the wrong treatment for the patient so, in making his diagnosis the doctor will exercise great care and make use of all the aids which modern medicine affords him. For- tunately, they are many. A careful history of the patient's distress will reveal much; a thor- ough physical examination will tell more, X-ray evaminati«a gives ad- ditional knowledge and, if neces- sary, the «discase picture can be Shinpleted by various #aboratory A dctor knows that while can- cer of the stomach is extremely rare in young people, it does occur every now and then, Therefore, he can never assume, simply because he is dealing with a young patient, that cancer is not at the root of the trouble. Ulcers More Frequent Similarly, ulcers are mote fre- quent in young persons but may at times occur in - older ones. Thus the patient's age only gives a sug- gestion as to the nature of a stom- ach disorder which may be present. If the patient complains of pain but has had attacks similar in na- ture on previous occasions it is like- ly that he is having recurrent at- tacks of ulcer. This does not, how- ever, give any guarantee that can- cer is not present, because a per- son who has had an ulcer may in rare cases develop cancer. The Symptoms Disappear In patients with ulcer from time to time the symptoms seem to dis- appear, On the other hand, once the symptoms of cancer start they do not subside, Any person who has digestive discomfort over a relative- ly long period of time is more likely to be suffering from cancer than from ulcer. Bleeding from the stom- ach is more likely to be due to ulcer or gastritis, If there is bleeding from cancer it is in the nature of slow oozing of blood. In regard to laboratory examin- ations in cancer the amount of acid in the stomach is likely to be de- creased while in ulcer the acid is increased. The location in the stomach of the disorder causing the trouble also helps to tell whether it 1s an ulcer or cancer, Of course, the location may be determined in the X-ray plate. Still another method of examin- ation includes the use of the gastro- scope which is an instrument made up of a tube and a light, This in- strument is through the mouth into the stomach and makes it possible for the doctor to. look directly into the stomach and ex- amine its walls. With such examin- ation, mistakes in diagnosing occur but rarely. Thus it can be seen that with the modern methods of examination it is possible to tell with a fair degree of centainty just which stomach disorder is present so that treat- ment may be properly carried out.

CORNELIUS BEECKMAN / Progressive Dinner Party . , Three Couples as Hosts Dear Mrs, Beeckman: / of and I, all married and all from different parts of the country, sud- denly found ourselves, during the last year of the war, living here in this medium-sized town. We are all most enthusiastic about town, and people here have been most kind and hospitable to us. Each of us has a small house which we have to run on a moderate bud- get, but we three couples would all like to do something to entertain the group of couples who have been so generously, hospitable to us, Do you think it would be a good idea to rian this during the holidays? And have you any suggestions as to how we could combine in our party-giv- ings? Six of Us. Unless you know that so many parties have been scheduled with this group for the holidays that there is not much time to squeeze in another, I think it would be just the right time to stage a "progress- ive dinner-party."

Then the guests progress to the house. of hostess No. 3, for dessert and cof- fee, and perhaps afterwards, danc- ing or games or singing-old-songs- and-new, or carol-singing.
