1. KING EMPEROR’S GREETING TO AMBASSADOR PRINCE. More affecting, if possible, than the mighty welcome of London’s multitude, was the proud greeting of the Prince of Wales by the Royal Family. Queen Alexandra, indeed, arrived at Victoria Station over a quarter of an hour before the Prince was due, and the King and Queen made their appearance as the approach of the Royal train was signalled. The family re-union took place in the Royal saloon, and the Prince then stepped on to the platform to be received by Queen Alexandra in a warm embrace. The illustration shows the Prince being greeted by the Royal Family on his arrival at Victoria Station. From left, the names are: The Duchess of Albany, the King, Princess Mary, Princess Victoria, Queen Alexandra, the Queen, Prince of Wales, Duke of Connaught, Hon. Andrew Fisher, Lord Reading, Mr. Lloyd George, Sir Alfred Mond, Mr. Bonar Law. 2. THE PRINCE OF WALES ATTENDS THE SOCCER FOOTBALL MATCH BETWEEN THE SPURS AND CHELSEA SHORTLY AFTER HIS RETURN TO LONDON. The Prince acknowledging the ovation which greeted him on his arrival at Stamford Bridge to witness the match. 3. THE HOME-COMING OF THE PRINCE OF WALES. The Prince receives a hearty welcome from the Scouts. The radiant smile which has won all hearts wherever the Prince has gone was much in evidence at the home-coming.
