Sighted because Prince Gustaf Adolf,

Says Verdens Gang on this subject:
The constitution of Norway says that
it shall be AN memorable rule that the
king. while a minor, is given sufficient
instruction in the Norwegian Ian
guage.' But. so far, Prince Gustaf
Adolf has had no teacher from NORWAY,
though he has had the benefit of the
best Swedish, German, English and
French teachers. And he is 16 years
old. The young prince has scarcely
seen Norway. But this shows the re-
lation of the royal family to Norway.
1t feels itself to be thoroughly and ex-
clusively Swedish.
