Advertising and Circulation Telephone .. DAILY EDITION Saturday, April 5, 1930 ARE WE PREPARED? It now seems probable that most of the business to be done with the Taku mining district will go through Canadian ports. In this respect we are wondering how far Prince Rupert is prepared to look after her share. This is the nearest supply port and also it is the'. port through which men should be secured for the work that is to be clone in the Taku country. MORE HOUSES NEEDED More houses of a certain type seem to be needed in Prince Rupert. We are not suggesting to anyone that they should go into the business of house building but we simply draw attention to the need. Possibly the better plan would be for residents in the city to build houses for themselves and thus make available for others the residences or flats they now occupy. A GREAT SINGER Speaking of Madame Albani, whose death was announced yesterday an English newspaper once said: "Madame Albani will be remembered, not only as a singer, but also as a woman who gained and kept during her long career the affection and esteem of multitudes of friends and admirers all over the world. She remains one of the brilliant musical figures of the twentieth century." ' It wa' always understood that the diva's nom de theatre was chosen as a result of an interesting coincidence. After Miss bftjayjesse had completed her studies in Italy and was ready for appearance as a professional opera singer her teacher brought up the subject of a name. He recommended the use of "Madame Albani" out of compliment to a family he had known for many years but which had died put. JMiss Lajeunesse gladly accepted the sug gestion because m this way she was able to do honor to the cityH,pf, Albany where. she made her really first public appearance as a singer. Madame Albani's reportoire as an opera singer. extended over a wide range and she took the leading soprano roles n La Sonambula, Mefstofele, Lucia di Lammer-moor, Linda di Chamounix, Faust, Les Huguenots, Mig-non, Flying Dutchman, Tannhauser, Lohengrin, Tristan and Isolde, and Die Meistersinger, while for years she sang in cantatas and anthems at musical festivals in England.

WAS LOVED BY PEOPLE Late Queen Was Cousin of William Hohcnzollern When Queen Viototia, who dle" yesterday in Rome, first went tr Sweden as the 19-year old bride o; the then Crown Prince of Norway and Sweden, Oscar Gustave Ad-olph, it was a triumphal entry into her adopted country and into the hearts of its people. The hold which she gained upon the affections of the Swedish people at that time was retained throughout the more than a quar ter of a century she was crown princess and was strengthened in the years that followed when these same people became her subjects. Her husband became King Gus tav V. of Sweden on December 8. 007. upon the death ot his father. King Oscar II. Queen Victoria shared the democratic views of the king and was said to have encouraged him In his refusal to endure any coronation pomp in the ceremony which elevated them to the thrones. Their coronation often has been compared In Its simplicity to the' inauguration of s pre sident of the United States. Thereafter, the royal couple were hailed as the most democratic rulers of Europe. Sophia Marie Victoria was born at Karlshruhe, in Baden, Germany, August 7. 1862, the only daughter If Grand Duke Frederick ot Baden and the Grand Duchess Louisa, a daughter of Emperor William 1. She, therefore, was a first cousin of the former kateer of Germany. Being a graddaughter of Sophia, rlncess of Sweden, her marriage to Gustav effected a union i be- ween the Bernadotte dynasty and the ancient Swedish royal house of Vasa. The Weddinr They became acquainted when Crown Prince Gustav was attend ing the German army maneuvers at Strassburg In the autumn of 1879. Their betrothal was announ ted on March 12. 1861, and their wedding took place at Karlsruhe on September 20 of, the same year. Vftw davs later when Gustav and Victoria arrived in Sweden they Avere received with one of thi most enthusiastic demonstrations fever given a. royal , couple in that country. Their trip from Gothen burg to Stockholm was a trium phal one in which peasants and thobles vied in showlnr their ap-raroval ot the choice of the crown prjnce. victoria naa i earned uie Swedish language and after a few tyears it scarcely could have been recognized that she was not a na tive of hex adopted country. . Three sons were born to Gustav and Victoria Crown Prince Gus- tflvus Adolphus, who also has the title of Duke of Scania; William, Duke of Soedermanland, who Is an accomplished poet and novelist, and Erik, Duke of Vaestergothland Who died in 1918. From early childhood, Queen Victoria was a physical culture en thusiast and fond of athletics Thus, it was one of the ironies of fate that she should have developed bronchial ailment, which for many years made it dangerous for her to live in the rigorous climate ot Sweden. She spent her first summers in Sweden at the royal detached palace of Tullgarn, not far from Stockholm, and, when the climate there proved unfavorable a villa was erected for her on the Swedish Island of Oeland, In the Baltic Sea. Lived in Italy In later years the climate there did not alleviate her trouble and she was, obliged to make numer-dus trips to Italy, where she maintained a winter home, and to the 'sland of Malnau, in Lake Constance, Bavaria, which had bec-i' willed to her. Notwithstanding the impaired onditlon of her health. Queen Victoria, by her sympathlc,' charitable and genuinely unselfish nature earned the affectionate titles of "model mother" and "mother of the land," expressions of sentiment that meant a great deal to her. Interested in charity work-throughout most of her life, Queeu Victoria Increased her activUf-r, ir, that direction at the outbreak of the World War. She formed tlv Queen's Central Committee to or ganlze and direct private charlt; aid vithin the country and also showed great Interest in the activities, of the Swedish Red Cross "he soldiers' and sailors' homes arui the pioneers of Lapland. Many times during the war she made visits to her aged mother at Karlsruhe, visits that often wer raught with danger. On one of hose occasions French fyers in 1915 bombarded the royal palac? where the queen was staying. She was on a similar visit in No vember, 1918, when the German re solution broke out and she and her nother were obliged to take refuge n the castle of Zwlngenberg, east 3f Heidelberg. The leaders of the revolution, however, granted th queen and her mother pflrmisslon o move to a castle In the south of Baden, owned by a Swedish count, who was a chamberlain of the queen.

Here's why: Gillette engineers found that "razor pull" is caused by dropping a razor and denting the corners. In a precision instrument such as the Gillette Razor, a slight nick may throw the blade out of alignment. To meet this trouble, the entire razor and blade was redesigned at many points. The corners of the razor cap are reinforced with heavy metal lugs. Even if you should, manage to dent this extra thickness of metal, you still won't throw the blade out of alignment. Why? Because all four corners of the new blade arc cut out. The blade is under no pressure at the corners when cap and guard clamp together. Now when you're through shaving, all you do is shift guard at right angles, re-tighten and rinse under hot running water. The blade is specially processed to resist rust. Just shake thoroughly and place on shelf.
