“And it always will be.”
The foregoing aphorism may have
been true a hundred years ago, but it
is sadly off the mark today.
Everything today seems to point
toward a better and more moral
world. The people, the books and the
modern drama have something to do
with the uplift of the nation.
Perhaps one of the most notable
plays which has tended to point the
way is “Little Lost .Sister/’ dramatized

London, February 9.—Rain or shine
Queen Mary must have her umbrella,
the habit being so confirmed that she
often feels lost without it indoors.
This peculiarity has become conspicu
ous through the recent incident at
Norwich where the queen insisted
upon^ carrying her umbrella through
a museum whose rules forbid the tak
ing of walking sticks or umbrellas
into the picture galleries.
The queen has not been altogether
xempt from critic
'conservative quarters th° queen’s con
duct is questioned. The Daily Sketch
asks why Queen Mary, “who is usually
so willing to adapt herself to circum
stances” would not temporarily dis-
' pense with her umbrella when she vis-
j ited the Norwich museum. She was
jV* willing, the paper points out, to dis
pense with bouquets and red carpets,
with bows and speechmaking, since
she tried to keep her identity a secret,
but the Bishop of Norwich who accom
panied her had to disclose her identity
in order that she could avoid the rule
of parting with her umbrella and ob
tain the royal preiogative of walking
through the museum “fully equipped
for the possibility of the blowing off
of the roof coinciding with a heavy
shower.”
No matter what the occasion, unless
it be some very formal official cere
mony, the queen invariably carries a
neatly folded umbrella, despite the
fact that she always drives in a cov
ered carriage and whenever she stops
anywhere a canopy is provided. Prin
cess Mary has the same umbrella habit
as her mother. Queen Victoria like
wise was always seen with a parasol
or umbrella, but she always had hers
open, and it was said that it was lined
with chain mail to ward off attempts
on her life by bomb throwers.
