Queen Moves To Her New Home : London, Oct. 1.?Emotion struggled r between tears and a faint wistful smile as Queen Mary, after 25 years as Mistress of Buckingham Palace, moved today into her new home at Marlborough House. Proudly erect, a stately figure in black. the aging Queen turned once to look back at the huge greystone palace where for more than a qaurter of a century she had reigned as consort to the late King George V. Then, with a wave of her gloved hand at the small group of on lookers, she stepped Into the big maroon-colored royal limousine, followed by her monarch sou, King Edward VIII, and drove the short distance to Marlborough House, the traditional residence of Britain's widowed queens. Scarlet-jacketed Sentries presented arms and blue-coated "bobbles" saluted as the royal couple drove slowly away. King Edward remained with his mother for some time after her personal standard had been broken from the flagstaff at Marlborough House? the lirst time a queen's standard has flown there since the death of Queen Alexandria, widow of King Edward VII. Then Edward returned to his desk at Buckingham Palace?Lone master of his household destiny. Meanwhile, the possibility of an unofficial American hostess in the rnlace, in the person of King Edward's friend, .Mrs. Ernest ("Wallie") Simpson engaged Mayfair, The vivacious, dark-eyed Mrs. Simp- , son, formerly Wallis Warfleld, of Baltimore. Maryland, who accompanied the 42-year-old bachelor monarch on his six weeks holiday cruise ip-the Adriatic Sea, then travelled .as his suej-t to Ed ward's Scottish seat, at Balmoral Castle, returned with Ed- j ward in a special saloon car today a few hours before Queen Mary's de-1 parture from Buckingham. In lieu of a royal bride to act as i "unofficial" hostess at the small rath-, er informal dinner parties which Ed-; ward delights to give, it is believed 1 possible that he may delegate that role to the sparking-wltted American woman whose swift "uptake" in con-1 versation repudedly has fascinated' him beyond all the urgent claims of j native debutantes, dowagers and ! Duchesses of English high society. from Tokyo comes t^e information to the effect that the differences of Japar; and China in the recent past, that apparently pointed toward war beween the two nations, will-be settled satisfactorily without resort to arms. ...... * WINTER LAWNS See U* For ITALIAN RYE GRASS CRIMSON CLOVER BONE MEAL SHEEP MANURE COTTON SEED MEAL 8-4-4 FERTILIZERS Whitakpr & Co. . . -4 *".. ip* JNT# ~'?* News Of Interest In And Near Bethune Bethune, Oct. 7.?A lovely social afair of the past week was the bridge party given by Mrs. L.
