WEDNESDA¥, NOVEMBER 19, 1947 . THE DAILY TI MES-GAZETTE | ~ 0ld Country Letter By STUART UNDERHILL Canadian Press Staff Writer London, Nov. 18----(CP) -- The United Kingdom looks up this week from the hard grind of the export drive to call "good luck" to a young getting married. marriage of Princess Eliza- Lieut. Philip Mountbat- popular as any royal ever been in the stormy onarchy in the British £ ms suspect here--by taking the citizenship of the country for which ! a strapping, eligible young man who seems destined to share a place public respect and popularity with his young bride. Loyalty to the crown in Britain on the whole is not a gushing thing «in fact you will hear more cynical wisecracks about the royal wedding a one day than you are likely to hear in a week in Canada. But underneath there is a hearty respect for the royal family, in the tradition established by Elizabeth's grandfather, George V, self-styled "ordinary fellow" who showed that Xing could walk at ease among humble subjects without losing his dignity. That is the tradition carried on by the present King who during the second world war and the peace time austerity has tried to share as far as his position permits the difficulties and hardships of his subjects here. Elizabeth appears to have the same lack of pretention-----but she also has the same dignity that can chill ill-timed familiarity. Which is the way the subjects want it. After all what is the use of having a King if he doesn't act like one? Most people in Britain say "I wouldn't be King for anything," an admission which reflects their respect of the way the royal family carries out a difficult job. There must be lots of days when they would rather stay at home instead of attending boring functions. But they are there with a ready smile and & warm handshake. At Glasgow, where Princess Eliza- beth recently launched the liner Caronia, someone proffered an um- brella agairst the driving rain but Elizabeth waved it away. "I don't mind rain," she said with a smile, "and besides i' would not be fair to the people ey couldn't see me properly." There was no conceit involved: the British people do want to see their King and Queen, the Prin cesses and Philip.

MARTYRS TO ILLNESS Denouncing fear, anxiety and worry over health as harmful, the Department of National Health and Welfare, Ottawa, has issued a call to martyrs to illness to battle their ailments. Instead of "grinning and bearing it", the person who actually seems to enjoy being an invalid should strive for better health, says a health officer, pointing out that in many cases such fear and worry is a form of. self-indulgence.

Mordell, new associate professor of mechanical engineering at MeGill University who worked during the war at the Rolls-Royce plant in Derby, England, on development of the much-~talked-abount gas ture bine. Flying time from Montreal to gas turbine propulsion, said Prof. Mordell, but the cost would go up because of the greatly added power required to drive a plane through the air at the much increased | speed. However, ther is a saving in the number of work hours gained and the McGill professor said he be- lieved there will be many persons {who will want to make an over- { night flight to London and return the following night after complete ing their business. REVOLUTION IN WORLD RATHER THAN FASHION New York -- The revolution in fashion is not in the changing hem= line, as many women seem to think, but in the changing world scene which governs clothes as well as otther fields of art and ine dustry. Today fashion is internae tional. It is inspired by far corners of the globe, and is produced al- most anywhere, and whether cloth es are made in England, France, Italy or the United States they fol- low the same trends.
