KING’S INTERESTS
FOLLOWING IN FATHER’S FOOTSTEPS United Press Association—By Electric Telegraph—Copyright (Received January 3, 6.30 p.m.) LONDON, January 2. “The Daily Mail” says: “Since his accession the King has given many proofs of his love of Sandringham, and his intention to re-establish the beautiful estate on the tradition his father founded. He has already restocked the fa-ms with prize cattle, which will be bred on the same scale as in the time of King George V. He is now reopening the kennels, to breed the famous Sandringham Labrador retrievers.
The King has been shooting daily since Christmas, meeting the villagers and servants as squire, and thus carrying on another tradition. The King Is building new workers cottages to commemorate the coronation. Princess Elizabeth met with a mishap recently while riding at Sandringham. Her Shetland pony took fright, threw and dragged her a few yards. The Princess was out riding next day.
