Prince's Taste for Dish
Is Akin to Other Babes'
OXFORD the Prince of Wales
did not like porridge any better
than thousands of other children
who make wry faces over their
oatmeal in spite of all the Scotch
manufacturers can dc to popular
ise it in the British Isles.
In an address befcre the Indus
trial Welfare Society, Mrs. M. A.
Cloudesley Brereton told .an anec
dote of the prince's youth. On his
last morning at home before he
was to go into t:iw naval service,
when the porridge was set before
hfm he said: "We'J thank good
mss, there is one thing about go
i:s into the navy. T wont have to
cat this beastly stuff every morn
ins of my life?
But to the surprise of i.he prince
his first breakfast in the navy be
gan with stiff porridge handed
about in wooden bowls. He knew
what his duty was when he saw
the knowing look exchanged by
two senior officers, and swallowed
the inevitable oatmeal.

brick could be dropped unexpected
ly in almost any setting and it
would be coKsidered an ornament.
Not only are the architectural ef
fects all pleasing but the owner . of
this home fully appreciated the
benefits of shrubbery decoration.
And that is where many a home
owner makes his greatest mistake.
Too many home builders consid
er that their task is finished when
they have leveled and seeded the
lawn and washed all the mud off
the concrete walk. The small
.house needs more than that. More
than any other house of them all
jt needs shrubbcr and a few trees
to complete the picture. They add
the missing link nine times out of
ten.
It is so in this ease. There is
nothing extravagant in the plant-
