Marie of Romania was the last Queen of Romania as the wife of King Ferdinand I. Born into the British royal family, she was originally titled Princess Marie of Edinburgh. After refusing a proposal from her cousin, the future King George V, she was chosen in 1892 to be the future wife of Crown Prince Ferdinand of Romania. Marie became popular with the Romanian people during her time as Crown Princess from 1893 to 1914.

FROM WARSAW TO ROME jckt-1
In May 1944, 40,000 Polish soldiers captured the strategic hilltops of Monte Cassino in Italy, ending one of the bloodiest battles of World War 2 for the Western Allies. This Polish corps was formed after Polish troops were freed from Soviet prisoner camps through negotiations, and evacuated from the Soviet Union to Iran in 1942 to join the British army. However, the book reveals that the Allied powers failed to properly plan for the Polish soldiers after the war, leading to poor treatment of these loyal troops after the conflict ended. The book examines the history of the exiled Polish army in the east and their contributions and later mistreatment by Britain and other allies. It makes extensive use of archives to tell the story of the Polish II Corps

FROM MYRTLE'S BOOK "MEMORIES"
The immigration
Grandfather John Nelson, Sr., was a
tailor in Sweden. When his daughters
sewed new dresses, they would get
their dad to make the buttonholes.
Grandpa said he never would have
left Sweden if he could have bought
a sewing machine.
When he sold his property in Swe-
den, he was somehow swindled out
of his money so he had to borrow
money to get to America. I remember
Uncle Victor telling t h a t it was
grandpa's main desire to get out of
debt before he died. He just made it.
The Nelsons left Vermland, Swe-
den, in June of 1869, with four child-
ren, all under eleven years old. They
thought their children would have
greater opportunities in America.
They didn't realize then what hard-
ships they would meet in this land.
When they reached Christiania,
Norway, they had to stay there two
weeks waiting for a boat, but were
finally on their way in a sailing
vessel. It made good time as long as
the wind was in their favor. They
even passed a steamship one day.
Then the wind died down and they
couldn't move. That same steamship
passed them and they never saw it
again. They were on the ocean for
nine weeks, the same time as the
Pilgrims. Grandma was pregnant
and sick most ofthe time, so Grandpa
prayed that she wouldn't die so he
would have to have her thrown over-
board. Lena, who was the oldest,
cried and was consoled with the
promise that she could have all the
white bread she wanted when they
got to America. She was skeptical and
said in Swedish, "Like fun I will."
(Vackertforja.)
They had bought tickets to Cokato,
Minnesota, but when they got to
Minneapolis, found that the railroad
ended there. A bachelor who was liv-
ing in a dugout let Grandma and the
children stay there while he and
Grandpa joined the gang to extend
the railroad. It took sixteen weeks
from the time they left Sweden until
they reached their destination.
After making their home in Cokato
for six years, they decided to move to
Swift County where they home-
steaded five miles northeast of Kerk-
oven. The Indians had been chased
out of Minnesota and there was much
hardship and many massacres.
