I f f, I. I 1 CHORUS GIRL FOR WIFE? YES; BUT NO GERMAN Britain Much Concerned Over Problem of Consort for Prince of Wales I ' ' ' ' f 'market is depleted Clamor Grows That Future King Shall Chooso From Among Englishwomen LONDON', May 23, English society has sidetracked most ther activities for the. serious business of plcklne n bride for the I'rlnco of Wale. The Prince, himself, In France, Is wooing tho fortune of war, probably unnwaro of tho concern ho is glvlnc lfngllsh society. Society's cause for concern is the fear that the I'rlnco may follow the precedent of other heirs to tho throno and marry a for eign princess even a Gorman one, for which tho precedent Is very recent. And roclety. spelled with clfhor a small or a cap Hal "S." isn't going to stan'd for nnythlnc like that. "A British queon for the tlrltlsh" Is becoming society's motto, and It has passed from whispering tcatlmo circles to the bold publicity of tho newspaper etlitorlnl page. Conservatives and radicals alike are declaring It. ' "So far as Britain Is concerned tho Guz man royal matrimonial emporium hence forth Is a bankrupt and discredited concern, and tho marriageable members of our roal family will bo pleased to look for consorts nearer home." This Is from XorthclluVa conservative Weekly Dispatch "Wo want no more foreigners In our royal family. It Is not their fault. It Is their misfortune, that they aro puro German In blood, and that whenever and wherover a royal prince or princess Is born It Is pure German In blood. There is no British blood In our royal family. Tho remedy Is obvious." That from tho more radical Eve itig Star. "English opinion, at tho present time, vould rather sco a British prlnco take his 1 wife from tho chorus or tho gutter than from a German royal house. And that, of course, 13 not tho alternative." So chimes In the Manchester Dispatch. Theso newspapers and others aro urging revision of tho" Boyal Marriages Act, whereby princes jtt tho royal lino are al most compelled to marry foreign princesses. The law was passed In 1772 as tho result of George Ill's anger at two brothers who married English ladles of far from royal rank It has had many awkward conse quences, since outside of Germany nearly all reigning houses aro Unman Catholic, with whom an alllanco would bo Imposslblo for tho head of the Church of England. This causes a correspondent of tho London Time to say: The Russian royal family are not barred on religious grounds, but after the recent revolution it would bo a blazing Indiscretion, for our court to bring about an alllanco with them. Tho royal families of Italy and Belgium aro barred by Iloman Catholicism and tho French Bourbon and Orleans princess or pre tenders aro equally ineligible, for that reason or for tho offense which would bo given the French Republic. Almost all discussions of tho subject, therefore, get back to principle of .1 British bride for tho heir apparent. As terrible examples of German nlllances the ex-Czarltza and Queen Sophie of Greece are held up. Tho ono is bello-ed to havo exerted great Influence over tho Czar and the other to havo aided materially tho Kaiser's control of King Constnntlne. The German Queen Mother of Holland and tho Gorman Queen of Sweden like wipe aro held up to view as Instances of the danger, whllo the Manchester paper brings the matter closer home, by saying: PS..- . . . ra uns in arms nffln to w v ugh t amttV' ?

But'they iiave not been disposed to content themselves with a mechanism deficient in those qualities which make for real snap and zest in motoring. In the new Cadillac four-passenger Phaeton there is combined a car of low sides, inclined wind shield, speedy lines and a chassis-of surpassing-mechanicalvexcellence. In striking contrast with the usual car of comparable body type, it affords the acme of luxurious riding qualities, lending itself admirably to the requirements of the small family. . "Once You Have Driven a Hi dF ' ill U EIGHT Its .Charm Has Spoiled You For Any Other Car" AUTOMOBILE SALES-CORPORATION The Cadillacs Newest Creation That the mechanism of the Cadillac V-type "Eight" represents the most advanced development in motor driven vehicles, haspassed'beyond the stage which admits of discussion. You may set greatest store upon quietness, or steadiness, or smoothness, or speed, or comfort, or all 'round road ability, or upon body lines that are-smart and racy, and at the same time pleasingand beautiful. But it is when. you see and feel how, in the Cadillac, all of these qualities are so successfully blended that you awaken to the realization of how immensely- fascinating your motoring can-be. 1 r1 iSrofr-'i :-m?3 'Ik .fes P 'tS3a)ipWpiVi' 'if jjjr15- " .jzt" r-""1 "" '''' "'" -""''
