A comical story is going the rounds
concerning Gov. Stephens of Missouri
and nephew of his who has been visit
ing in London. The nephew was at the
theater not long ago. and to his surprise
and joy. the orchestra played a tune ia
miliar to him from his earliest years, and
what is more, the audience cheered that
tune with might and main. The young
man had thoughts Of starting America
then and there. and trusting the audience
to join, but he did not. He wrote home
however. that it was very gratifying To
observe the sympathy of the English peo-
pie for this country, and that they even
cheered America" when 1t was played
in the theaters.
The comicality of the incident consists
largely in the fact that the good governor
did not know that "Ged Save the Queen
and America" are one and the same air.
and he promptly circulated the story as
an evidence of the love which the Eng
lish people have for us. 1t may be well
to tell him, and others who are not more
thoroughly informed than he is, that the
air of God Save the Queen is the ma
tonal air of England, America, and Swift
zerland, and possibly of some other coun-
tries, and that it will serve very well as
a chorus at a great international peace
jubilee should there ever be such a thing.
