42 THE DAILY TIMBS-GAPETTE, Wednesday, March 25, 1008 Always An Aristocrat Mary Had Human Touch Stately Queen Honored Britain By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Queen Mary was every inch the noble aristocrat, some- times imperious, yet softened by a humanity and humor- touched simplicity which endeared her to the masses. White-haired, stately, keenspirited, and combining to an extraordinary degree everyday practically with illumina- tion of mind, she represented at its highest, in the words of historian Arthur Bryant, "the English sense of home, of quiet certainty, of continuing standards." She won the admiration and love ¢- terly as the Dowager Queen. Raised in the Victorian era, she became a symbol of the dignity of that age. She is' seen here as a young mother with her chil- dren, Edward, Albert and Mary. FOUR GENERATIONS of the Commonwealth were familiar with Queen Mary; first as the Duchess of York, then as Queen, of millions, outsiders as well as her own people, for three transcendent qualities -- conscientiousness as a queen who steadfastly earried re- sponsibilities of state with true regal grace and serenity; devotion as a wife and mother who bore personal and national tragedy iwth exemplary fortitude and unswerv- ing loyalty to her ideals. ; Long ago Queen Mary set forth: "Remember that life is made up of w: loyalty -- loyalty to your friends; loyalty to things beautiful and good; loyalty to the country in which you live; ;loyalty to your King; and, above all, for this holds all other loyalties together, loyalty to God."

A SHADOW CROSSED Queen Mary's eyes when her favorite son, Edward, chose to abdicate rather than give up the woman he loved. In true Victorian style, she refused to countenance the marriage of a divorcee to the rul- ing. King. Here King Edward VIII is seen in the uniform of an et admiral of the Royal Navy. later as Queen Mother, and lat- That, more than anything else served as a text for her own way of life. Typifying the spirit which won for British women, patrician and commoner alike, the esteem of the world in the war years, Queen Mary faced her sorrows unflinch- ingly, permitting a few to share them with her but virtually never betraying her inmost feelings. She knew tragedy early in life. Death took Prince Edward, Duke of Clarence, in 1891, a little more than a month after their engage- ment. Subsequently married to his brother, George, later to be King, she suffered the loss of her son, Prince John, in 1919, then widow- hood in the winter of 1935-36. Within the year came another staggering blow--the abdication of Edward VIII, described by some who knew her as her favorite son, the Prince in whom she placed such high hopes. Edward's renuni- cation of the throne for love of the American-born divorcee, Mrs. Wallis Warfield Simpson, unquestionably caused her agony of mind which time might have lessened but could not dissolve. In later years, when the Duke and Duchess of Windsor returned to England for brief visits, the old Queen always welcomed her son, but the door was resolutely closed to his wife. 6 The death of another son, the Duke of Kent, in an airplane acci- dent in 1942, was Queen Mary's most acute personal tragedy of World War II. To private pain were added a vast care rising from the ordeals of nations and commonwealths, the woes of ordinary people whose wel- fare she tried in many ways to assist through two world wars and a crushing financial depression. Hers was not a life of cushioned ease. Through well over a half cen- tury she performed exacting, fati- guing tasks, and seldom was she far from the torments of the times.
