Ahove all else, the J'rnice ol :)ing a good sport ami ail a liberal interpretation of tliat term involves, lie could not nhdieate without laying himself open to : the charge of being a "quitter" and shirking the responsibili ties which his position pi need upon him. So much as he ab- horrcd tho idea of ascending the liritish throne, he refused t : take the only action that would prevent if, and went on his wy, doing the things he liked to do, and hoping agninst hope that something might intervcnt to prevent what now seems certain, and what he considers such a tragedy. And only those who understand tit" political ami social con ditions in Knglaud, and the revolutionary changes that have taken place in the present generation, can understand 1hc I'rince of Wales' altitude. Added to this, in Prince Kd wards' case, has been his family environment. While King d'eorge lias developed from; an unpopular mon arch lo one. generally esteemed anil respecled, it is pretty gen erally known he has never enjoyed being King of Knglaud. He has performed the duties of his exulted office with skill and extreme conscientiousness, hut his heart has never been in it. Ah King, the J'rince of Wales would enjoy a personal, popu larity never attained by his father. It is probable the responsi bilities of tho position would develop him, as they did his grand father whom in many ways lie resembles, but subconsciously he he regards the occupancy of the throne from his father's stand point. Moreover, this king business is about played out. Only in (ireat .Britain has it any genuine standing, and even there, in spite of the pleasant fiction about unofficial power, the King remains essentially u figurehead. Once upon tins throne thu Prince of Wales would neve;' again be able to call an hour his own. lie would literally be the servant of the British people, including the dominant politi cians." No more lion hunting, no more polo, no more all-night dances, no more fox hunting at least not the kind the I'rince has en joyedand, even more important, no more freedom ami privi leges. or bachelorhood. Day after day he would be presented with his program laying a corner stone here, attending a country fair there, driv; iug iu state somewhere else the deadly drudgery of a fiUde and ostentatious routine! Knowing the conditions, one can hardly blame the" Prince. Who in his position would want the job? Anil yet unless the unexpected happens he will soon be forced to take it. I Tow times have changed! lie will take it as a martyr and with tlu? firm conviction that he will go down in history as the last of the British Kings.
