Bowed with grief as they were, it was impossible for the Prince of Wales and Alexandra to undertake longer all thotK. duties which had previously almost been demanded of them and a share fell to George, Duke of York. In any catte George now stood in the direct line to the throne, distant though his accession might be, and consequently the genial days of his career as an officer in the Royal Navy werd put behind him. With calm resignation to the decree of Provident and quiet application of his mind, George prepared himself for still higher duties and even more severe setf-discipline. At the time of his death the Due of Clarence Was engaged to his cousin Princess Victoria Mary of.Teck, known for many year to the 'people as "Princess May" Twdvc months later came the announcement of the betrothal of Princess Mary to the Duke of York. Their Marriage Prince George's marriage at the Chapvl Royal, SL James Palace on July 6, 189a, was witnessed by' Queen Victoria, by the Emperor Vho married Victoria's eldest daughter (Frederick III. of Germany . who'died in 1888) and was father of the last German Kaiser; and bjthe hapless monarch who was fated to go down in history as-thei last of the Cxars. lueen Victoria died in 1901 after a glorious reign of 61 years and Bdward VII came to the throne". Another era opened. It is rather startling to turn back the pages of modern history to consider the method of conducting foreign politics in Edward's time compared with those of today. Nevertheless . it is interesting to recill hov, as Prince of Wales, Gettrge played a not unimportant part in assisting his father's efforts for the preservation of peace In Europe. ,. -Ascended Throne In matters of domestic politics the King without exception always afted with scrupulous correctness, invariably adopting the Hon. J. H. Thomas and, Rt Hon. Philip Snowden i Prime Minister, Secretary for the Colonies and Chancellor of the Exchequer res-Iectively) with the same frankness and belief in their desire to serve the common good as he in his own station also manifested. Never by so much as a hair's breadth did the King differ in his manner of receipt of advice from the Labor ministers as from those who had served him earlier. It has been truly said that in some ways the British Labor party is the most conservative of all. George Lansbury, veteran antagonist of most established things, extolled the monarchy and Royal family generally. Away from the cares of office and the restrictions of the court the King finds most pleasure in yachting and shooting. At least once a year he smells with relish the salt water, the love of his youth, when he takes a vigorous part at famous Cowes regatta, off the Isle of Wight, in manning his racing yacht, the old Britannia, built by his father. Ahilg Prince of Wales. As for shooting, there are few men of his own genera Uon who can handle a sporting gun with more iffect. The King Is never happier than when spending a few lays with, friends of such long tanding as the Duke of Devonshire or the Earl of Derby. For years It has been the King's Invariable custom to accept the hospitality of the Duke' at the open-ng of the shooting season, shoot ;ng grouse over the moors adjoining Bolton Abbey in Yorkshire. Like his father before him he often favors the Earl of Derby with a visit for the Grand National steeplechase meeting af Aintree. Liverpool, and with the Queen never misses attending the running of the Derby and the Oaks at Epsom. It would be over-drawing the picture to assert however, that King George ha the same fondness for the turf as King Edward had. The truth Is probably he infinitely prefers riding a OUTSTANDING LIFE EVENTS KING GEORGE 1865 Born in Marlborough House, London, second son of Edward, Prince of Wales, later King Edward VII. 1880 With his older brother, Prince Albert, made cruise to South America, South Africa, Fiji Islands.

In that year -also Scuttle finished second to Lord Derby's Toboggan in the Oaks. The season was the best His Majesty ever experienced on the turf, for he won six races with five horses, gaining $50,t)00 in stakes. The King though has the keenest enthusiasm for riding himself.
