Acted as Guide to an American Ono of His Pranks The personality of George V kiuj of Great Britain and the British em pire is perhaps less known to his sub jects than that of any king who bus come to the British throne in cen turies He has been affectionately called the sailor prince His mar riage with the popular Princess Mary of Teck who was previously engaged to his elder brother the Duke of Clar ence brought him still further favor with the British people and trips to the far corners of the colonies have made him known in distant corners of the earth but of his intimate person al character only a few things are known Lord Burnham who was a personal friend of the late King Edward and knew intimately the whole royal fam ily sums up the personal characteris tics of King George in the following paragraphs He has undergone sedulous training and has been educated to rule by learn ing to obey The country will discov er in him what those admitted to his confidence have always realized ad mirable traits of kindliness and strength wise common sense practical judgment of affairs a shrewd insight into character and a singularly up right and lofty conception of kingly duty Deliberate In Thought He has a frank generous unspoil ed nature is quick in apprehension deliberate in thought careful fn ex pression controlled by a farreaching consciousness of dutj and is animated by a vivid sense of his exalted mission Among other qualities which hap pily belong to our new sovereign he is a keen sportsman an admirable father and husband and a lovable man He comes to the throne at a time of n keen political crisis and while all par tisan rivalries are naturally hushed during the poignancy of natural grief we know he has the tact and ability to give inestimable advice to his min isters and the power to solve many of our most acute problems King Georges tastes are quiet and unostentatious and he is a constant reader and a close student of national and international affaiis Tory lean ings are attributed to him and there is The band boys and the chib girls very little doubt that he inclines to a I jf l 1 quietly went up to the home of Prof Slorris and wife and gave them a

with his son George A B Gibbs of Lebanon was up Friday on a visit D F Schwab of Lebanon was up Thursday on a business trip A number of Indianolaites were over Friday to see the basket ball game Geo Vawters of Oberlin Kansas was over Wednesday and Thursday He is in the real estate business conservative view in national politics Yet a British king is in theory above and beyond politics and those familiar with King Georges earnest desire in all things to do his duty as he sees it are inclined to believe that he will be able to hold an even balance between the two contending parties His Wako Up England Speech That King George has a mind of his own and thinks has been evidenced more than once in his public address es which it is said are not for the most part prepared for him but are jjgi the result of his own work and study ungiisumen win not soon lorget ms famous Wake up England speech which was made on his return from a tour of the British empire which be gan in 1903 He was welcomed back by a luncheon at the guildhall Lon don at which the city bestowed upon him its freedom One phrase in the speech he made gave rise to the greatest enthusiasm not only In the city but throughout England and in all the colonies that had been visited The phrase was thought to show that George had come back alive to affairs and with a sense of how to handle them The three notable words in which he summed up the results of his trip were Wake up England He said tf I were asked to specify any particu lar impressions derived from the journey I should Unhesitatingly place before all others that of loyalty to the crown and attachment to the old country It was touching to hear the invariable references to home even from the lips of those who never had been or were ever likely to be In these islands And with that loy alty were unmistakable evidences of con sciousness of strength of true living membership in the empire and of power and readiness to share the burden of the responsibility of that membership As a result of the happy relations thus created between the mother country and her col onics we have seen their spontaneous rally round the old flag in defense of the nations honor in South Africa To the distinguished representatives of the commercial interests of the empire whom I have the pleasure of seeing here I venture however to allude to an im pression which seemed generally to pre vail among their brethren across the seas It was that the old country must wake up if she intends to maintain her old posi tion of pre eminence in her colonial trade against foreign competitors That is the impression I have brought back with me Wako up England As a boy King George became a midshipman in the navy He was fair ly popular with his brother officers unpretentious and quiet in his ways reserved and an earnest student He rose in due course to the rank of vice admiral Several years ago a British ship of of Wales and a uavnl officer on board A prominent American temporarily In nalifax managed to get permission to go over the ship Acted as Guide to an American In the boat that tool him over was a British officer of the garrison with whom he had some acquaintance When they arrived at the ship coaling was in full swing and the grime was Inches deep from bow to stern They were met by a particularly grimy young officer who volunteered to show the American around while tl officer transacted his business with the cap tain An hour later the two met to return to shore The Viv t an expressed himself as delighted with what he had seen and with the courtesy of the rouug naval officer who had been his guide I should have liked to see the prince though he remarked You were nearly an hour in his company had him all to yourself What more do you want said the English officer laughing Great Scott Was that the prince cried the American And I asked him if they had put his royal highness into cotton wool until they got the coal dust swept away No wonder he laughed When a boy the new king showed considerable deviltry and played many pranks When his grandmother Queen Victoria before whom all th mouarchs shook told him he could come from under the dinner table where he had been sent as punish ment to her horror and the amuse ment of the servants it was found he had spent his few minutes of penance in divesting himself of every stitch of clothing Again when he and his elder broth er ns boys were paying a state visit to tire governor of ono of the colonies they pretended to do honor to the na tives by appearing suddenly with yel low painted noses which gave rise to the report that was telegraphed all over the world to the consternation of their parents that they had had their faces tattooed In the present constitutional crisis which Great Britain is facing the at titude of King George cannot fail to be of the greatest moment Not in many years has a British king come to the throne with the prospect of im mediately facing so many important and perplexing problems LA FARGE THE ARTIST Career of Veteran Revolutionizer of Art of Stained Glass John La Farge the well known art ist who revolutionized the art of stain ed glass was born in New York city on Slarch 31 1S33 ne studied archi tectural decoration and then took up the study of painting with Couture in Paris and with William SI Hunt Uo began painting with religious subjects and decorative work He painted flow ers a few portraits and many land scapes For a short time Mr Ln 5 Wfr9 JOHN LA FAKGE Farge made illustrations for books and magazines He then devoted himself to mural painting mostly of a religious or ecclesiastical character Technically Sir La Farges greatest specific contribution has been no doubt the extension of the possibili ties of what is called stained glass and the discovery of new ways of turn ing it to artistic uses For the making of stained glass win dows he invented the new methods known in Europe as American changing and reforming the entire art of the glass stainer from the mak ing of the new glass by new methods to the painting of the same Much of this work is in churches and residences in Boston New York Chicago Cleveland Philadelphia and elsewhere Sir La Farge has written several works on art and has delivered many lectures Tribute to King Edward VII The following tribute to King Ed ward VII of Great Britain entitled The Truce of God was written by Alfred Austin the poet laureate What darkness deep as wintry gloom oershadows joyous spring In vain the vernal orchards bloom vainly tho woodlands sing Round royal shroud A mournful crowd Is all now left of ono but yesterday a king Thrones have there been of hateful fame reared upon wanton war He we have lost still linked his name with peace at home afar For peace he wrought His constant thought Being how to shield his realm against strifes baleful star So let us now all seek to wrest from fate ful feuds release And mindful of his wise behest from factions clamors cease
