PRICELESS BLESSING.
KING’S GREAT EXAMPLE. The Deputv Prime Minister of South Africa (General Smuts), in seconding a vote of thanks to the Duke and Duchess of York at the farewell in Lon. don to General Higgins, head of the Salvation Army, said: “I sometimes wonder whether Britons sufficiently appreciate the priceless blessing they possess in the Royal House. The King is an example to every man and woman in the Empire. He has raised the level of public life and has set a standard in a manner for which Britons cannot be sufficiently grateful. It i 9 a great thing at a time of such heart-searching unsettlement that we have at our head a truly wise, humble, and modest man who pours out his soul day and night for the people.”
