PRINCE IN JOVIAL MOOD
VISIT 1 TO WESTBOUBNE SCHOOL
LONDON, February 18
‘‘Look herc„ don’t let us have any formal programme. T just want to see tho boys and girls.” This was the Prince of Wales’s first remark to the head master on his arrival at Westbourne School. The Prince was in a jovial humor, and seemed to become a happy schoolboy himself. The children listened to a delightful speech with rapt attention. Then then Prince listened to tho children singing songs like ‘ John Brown’s Body ’ and ‘ Here’s a Health Unto Your Majesty,’ _ and when the conductor accidentally hit the Prince’s hat it was the Prince who led the laughter with the remark, “ It’s a godd job it’s a hard one.”
