Princess Juliana
; Will Wed for Love
Finishes 7-Year Search for
Satisfactory Husband.
The Hague. — Netherlands
breathed sighs of relief recently
when the engagement of their
plump, twenty-seven year old Prin
cess Juliana, heir to the throne of
The Netherlands, was announced.
She is to marry the twenty-five year
old Prince Bernard Zu Lippe-Bies-
terfield of Germany.
Never forgotten by her subjects
was the whispered statement of
their Juliana, richest princess in
Europe, that she would never marry
without being truly in love. In polit
ical circles, cafes, and by Dutch
firesides the topic of a suitable al
liance, satisfying to her marital
ideals as well as royal convenience,
has equaled the most heated politi
cal controversies in popularity.
The Hague rang with sounds of
wildly chaering crowds that lined
the city streets to greet their be
loved princess and her tall Prince
“Benno" upon their return to the
capital. Choirs sang, and the young
couple were called repeatedly to
appear on the balcony of the palace
to acknowledge the rejoicing Es-
Kaiaer Wilhelm of Germany was
given credit for the matchmaking.
NEW TENNIS QUEEN
at which Queen Wilhelmina had
failed.
A Seven Tear Search.
Juliana’s engagement culminates
a seven year search by her mother,
the iron willed Queen Wilhelmina,
among European nobility for a hus
band satisfactory to her daughter.
Rumors during this time implied
the imminent engagement of the
princess to no less than six suitors.
Although she has obeyed all other
wishes of her austere, proud mother,
until now she has defied official
matchmaking. None of the eligible
bachelors of tl\e English, German,
or Swedish royalty has appealed
to her.
They also may have reason to be
frightened by marriage into the
Dutch family. Life in Queen Wilhel-
mina’s court has never been jolly
and informal. The Prince-Consort
has .no authority whatsoever, but
must endure the boredom of endless
receptions and social functions. Nor
have the eligibles forgotten that
Queen Wilhelmina'■ husband,
Prince-Consort Hendrik of Mecklen
burg. spent much of his married life
traveling.
Juliana believes that many of the
dark hours in her mother's life were
due to the fact that as a young prin
cess she took no time to get ac
quainted with her prince-consort be
fore their marriage. She married
him because she needed a husband
in the beet interests of her country.
The present princess has been con
fident In the genuine lose of the
Dutch people for her. and has known
they would sympathise with her
desire for a happy marriage.

WHEN tS A MAN
BROKE?
By
LEONARD A. BARRETT
A business man who had weath
ered the depression fairly well was
heard to remark
to a group of
friends: “If my
business fails,
you’ll never see
me for dust I’ll
never go broke.”
The implication
immediately ap
parent was that
if he should be
forced into bank
ruptcy he would
follow the exam
ple of hundreds
of others, commit
what the Japa
nese term hara-kiri. “I will never
go broke.’’ The question arises, Was
he not already broke or very near it
at the moment when he made the
statement?
What do we ordinarily mean by
the expression, “Mr. went
broke." Ninety-nine times out of

but the number has beep in the mi
nority. The majority who thought
otherwise were, in time, able to
recoup their misfortune and again
become re-established on the marts
of trade.
When is a man broke? When he
loses his money? No. A man is
broke when he loses his spirit, when
courage and enthusiasm die within
his soul, when the perennial spirit
of hope no longer permits the
thought of future possibilities. A
man is broke when his heart is
dead, when his mind is callous,
and his soul is adamant. The an
swer is therefore not found in ma
terial values, but in moral and spir
itual realities. So long as the spir
itual element of hope burns upon
the altar of the human heart, no
person can be said to be broke.
It is one thing to state a principle,
bat quite another thing to make it
real in experience. An abstract
truth may be real in one’s character
but not in one’s career.
A man must break internally be
fore he can break externally. The
break must first come from within.
All the more important is the re
sponsibility of keeping the home
fires of high idealism aflame in one’s
personality. A man loses hope and
“goes broke" many times by way of
a nervous cpllapse, because he
lacked the steadying power which
friendship and love make possible.

views of towering brick walls
across the street. Even in houses
it is not uncommon for some win
dows to have indifferent views from
them. For whatever reason the
outlook is not attractive, it becomes
the province of the homemaker to so
decorate the windows that the lack
of landscape views is minimized.
The window itself must form the
attraction.
When views must be shut out,
glass curtains that are woven close
ly enough for light, but not views,
to come through them, will solve
one problem. If the window gets
the sun, any colored curtains can
be used. But if sun is lacking,
give the semblance of it by having
yellow marquisette, scrim, etc., as
the textile. With this across the
window, or with the sun permitted
to shine directly in through the up
per half of the window when sash
curtains are used, the next matter
is the problem of hangings.
Draperies.
While it is impossible to lay down
any definite rules without know

tions that may prove helpful. Have
the draperies bright and plain if
the wells have figured paper on
them.
And now comet the matter of or

thing. The light filtering through
it, adds a glamor to the panea. A
few plants bring a note of verdure
