ENT TO THRONE DEPRIVES PRINCE OF L (Continued From Page One.) . hU family calls him) Windsor, be longs the heart of this, a wholly lovable, unpretentious, outdoor chap who had rather be with hln men on the roundup on his "E.P." ranch at Pekfsko, Calgary, than playing the role of royalty. Palace and regal splendor mean nothing to him for himself. Often he has gone about his heavy public dutlea aa Prince of Walea thoigh yearning for the great outdoors his ranch, his farms, his cattle, hie horses and his sports. Even when In residence In London his home has reflected the char acter of David Windsor. He' ha lived In great York house, which, adjoins beautiful old St. James' palace, abode of many famous royal predecessors. But to him It haa been Just his "digs." ' Now David Windsor becomes king- emperor and moves into the wonder palaces of the English monarch, thntstlng behind him his "digs," his Canadian ranch, and all the rest of the private life which he haa held dear. BRITISH SCEPTER (Continued frrom Page One.) royal household, went to Balnt Mary of Magdalene's church thla morning for a holy communion service. The aervlce waa conducted by the Archbishop of Canterbury who only & few hours before had given a last blessing to the dying king. Flag at Full Mast, Unlike the remainder of the countryside, where flags whipped at half-ataff In a strong wind, the royal standard on the little church flew from the top of Its pole. A symbol of the last half of the slogan. "The King la Dead ! Long Llvo the King!" the standard always flies at full staff, signifying that the British empire la never without a ruler. The former Prince of Wales, now Britain's first "flying king." left Sandrtngham house by automobile with the Duke of York at 11:10 a.m., (6:10 a. m., E.S.T.) for the Bercham. Newton, airdrome a few miles away, where they 'took their plane for London. The new monarch piloted the pri vate ship himself aa the first inno vation of hla reign. The royal brothers one the new king,' the other the heir presump tive wore black overcoat and bowler hats. Edward, with only a few hours sleep, appeared worn and tired, but he raised his hat In acknowledge ment to the greetings of tlje few who saw him leave. Cold Main Death Cause. The late King Oeorge. four days after he contracted a sudden illness, succumbed at 11 :55 o'clock ( 6 :6fi p.m., E.S.T.) last night to compli cations arising from a severe cold, bronchial catarrh and a heart "weak ness a burden too heavy for the frail form to bear. Steeling themselves for the double ordeal of burying the dead king and proclaiming the new sovereign. Queen Mary and her children wept and prayed over King Oeorge'a bier as the empire of 450.000.000 subjects waited to do him homage. After comforting his mother. Queen Mary, In their hour of grief, the 41-year-old Prince of Walea con ferred with court officials this morning before hastening to Lon don to be acclaimed King Edward VIII. Respecting their privacy, the sad dened subject and neighbors of the bereaved family left them to their sorrow. Prom high and low, from all parts of the earth, came messages of con dolence. Broadcast were discon tinued, and London crowds were hushed. To Rett Before Altar. The court decided to transfer his majesty's body to St. Mary of Mag dalene' church here late In the day to rest temporarily before the altar, a did the bodies of hts mother. Queen Alexandra, hi brother, the Duke of Clarence and Avondale, and hi youngest son. John. The body of the late monarch will be removed privately to London, to He In state, probably In Westminster ball. Interment will take place at Windsor. Just west of London on the Thames, and seat of one of the traditional royal residenoes. King George probably will go to hla laat resting place In a vault, there beside the bodies of hi father, King Edward VII, Charles I and Henry VIII. Here in Norfolk, near the bleak coast 100 miles northeast of Lon don, the neighbor subjects mourned the passing of the country squire, sportsman, church-goer and family man they had known for years. Elsewhere In the empire. It was King George's devotion to duty, which Inspired the British people through the long, dreary daya or their greatest war and subsequent depression, which was sorely missed in these daya of International tense ness. The sovereign, declining gradually for daya, passed on to a peaceful end, unconscious in hla last mo ments. Knowing that death was near, the royal family remained close to the sick room throughout the long, sad evening. Oeorge V ascended the British throne as "the sailor king;" he left It aa "the democratic king." Unassuming to the point of shy ness, devout and faithful In religion, hard-working, devoted to his children and home life, and with a dignity relieved by the twinkle In his eyes, he typified the qualities which his subjects held highest. He sought a position close to ttie hearts of his people In a kindly and quiet way; unlike most men, he found proof of hla achievement n his own lifetime. Thla came atrongest In the deep sympathy that was world-wide dur ing hla serious Illnesses of 192B and 1920. Then huge crowds stood nightly outside Buckingham palace and mes sages and prayers came from remote quarters of the globe. "It waa an encouragement beyond description," he said after hla first; Illness, "to feel that my constant1 and earnest desire has been granted the desire to gain the confidence and affection of my people." Trained First As Bailor Unlike many British kings. Oeorge V did not begin training in child hood for occupancy of the thron. He was the second eon of Edward VII and was 26 years old when he became heir to the crown on the death of hi elder brother. Albert Vic tor, Duke of Clarence. Meanwhile, Oeorge had embarked upon a naval career which kept him almost constantly at sea from the time he was 13 and which had car ried htm from cadet-ship to the rank of commander by the time of bis brother's death. Thereafter hla dutlea as heir apparent precluded exclusive devotion to the navy though, within two years after hla father became King Edward VII, successive promo tions brought him rank of vice ad miral. Soon after hla father's accession on January 22, 1001, Prince Oeorge em barked upon an extensive tour which took him to Australia, South Africa and Canada. It waa followed In suc ceeding years by a number of tripe, Including one to India. When be succeeded to the throne May 0, 1010, at the age of 44, the empire had a sovereign unique for his first-hand acquaintance with the world and the dominions he . waa called to rule. Stresses Imperial Sovereignty ' If England knew leas about the new king then perhaps any before, and at first drew vivid contrasts be tween his general reserve and serious aspect and hla father's winning per sonality and gay removal of the Iso lation of the throne which had grown up in Queen Victoria's reign. George V nevertheless waa popular and had stamped himself as capable of Independent thought. I The nation had had a sharp sex-1 ample of that in 1001 when he re-1 turned from his colonial tour and made a dramatic "Wake up, Eng land" exhortation at the Guildhall. From the beginning. King Oeorge contrived by democratic participation in many public events and by other means to strengthen., the; crown as an unifying influence, divorced from domestic party strife, in the country and empire. Hla stress on the principle of im perial sovereignty came to the fore In 1011 when, with Queen Mary, he made a notable visit to India. When the war cast Its shadow over Europe, King Oeorge made every ef fort to prevent the- outbreak, ad dressing personal appeals to the em perors of Russia and Germany. When these failed and hla own country was plunged Into the con flict, he Issued a proclamation mobil izing the BrltlBh army and announc ed an unwavering determination to fight until victorious. The ruler and hla family set them selves to lending the royal Influence and encouragement to every form of "Kid wish f fe YOU'LL SEE WHY I PICKED A PLYMOUTH!'

' Illness Endangers Life But the country u a whole held firm to the respect It ' had alwaya shown to the king nd the political erlsls passed to be succeeded by a greater crisis, his serious Illness. This started In November, 1928, when a chill believed to have been caught on Armlatlcs.

In December counsellors of state were appointed; an operation ' was performed to drain the right aide of the king' chest. Back on hla feet again, he suffered two relapses, an abscess having formed under the site of the operation scar.
