NOTED MEN AND CHILDREN,

Children have a genuine friend In
the person of the King OF Siam. and
he has always taken an immense inter-
est In watching the progress OF the
child rulers of Europe-AlphOnso of
Spain and the little queen OF Holland.
During his present European trip he
intends to make their personal ac-
quaintance and become their fast
friend. In Alphonso OF Spain he will
find the unique combination OF a small
boy alive with infantile fun. mingled
with stately dignity, for the small king
OF Spain Is fully aware of his exalted
position.
by the younger members OF the royal
family the Prince Of Wales Is consid-
cred a martinez and a disciplinarian, In
spite OF his worldwide reputation for
jovial good nature. A short time ago
he saw the little Princess of Batten-
berg and Prince Edward of York at
play In n OF the palace c%ourtyards.
Running past a sentinel they omitted to
return the salute which soldiers are
Obliged to give every member OF the
royal family, whether the & be 60
years or 60 days. Immediately the
prince called the children back and in
sisted that each should make his salute
to the soldier.
President Faure of France Is ex.
tremely fond Of the youngsters, and his
greatest pleasure is a romp with his
grandson. When he became a grand
father for the second time the fact was
carefully kept from the public for a
couple OF weeks. the reason for this
act throwing a new light on the French
attitude toward Russia the great. The
strange reticence Is officially explained
in this way. Almost at the time of the
birth Of hts grandson in Paris the car
ina also became a mother. and the
French president thought 1t wiser to
wait for the royal proclamation from
st. Petersburg, 80 that his congratula-
lions to the car might precede those
of the car to him.
