As everyone knows, the heir ap- parent to the British throne cannot do exactly as he likes especially when it comes to picking his own friends among the girls. Just before his sailing for Austra- | lia last Tuesday a private dance was | given at Buckingham Palace for | young people--mainly in honor of the Prince. The Prince wanted some' of his best girl pals invited and made out a list. Whoever it is that handles | such matters thought it proper not to invite a single girl named and, moreover, told the Prince so. "Well," said the Prince, "count | me out too"--and nothing could in- duce him to attend. Moreover, he at ! brid | persuaded his brothers, Prince Albert { entertaine at a very pleasa ge, | and Prince Henry, tp stay away with | the result that the evening passed in | gloom. A royal parental rebuke followed | next morning, but- the Princes of | Wales respectfully but firmly inti- mated he intended hereafter to take a stand for liberty in choosing his own friends especially among the girls. , THE WORLD'S TIDINGS 'IN CONDENSED FORM Tidings From n All Over Told Ina Poipted and Pithy 'Way.
