FINE TRAITS
MRs.F|sH FOUND
IN THE PRINCE

Newport, Aug. 8.-Declaring that the
qualities OF the man himself rather than
his royal title were responsible for tho
eagerness of Newport society TO entertain
Prince Wilhelm OF Sweden. Mrs. Stuyves-
ant Fish in an interview at her Newport
villa, Crossways. named six leading traits
which. In her estimation. explain the ire
sistible charm of his royal highness. the
Duke OF Sodermanland.
Naturalness. dignity. simplicity, modes
ty, democratic spirit and genuine ap~
probation OF hospitality, these magic
qualities make Prince Wilhelm the lion
OF the hour wherever he goes.
Moreover Mrs. Fish asserts that in these
six traits are summed up the causes that
led TO reports OF bitter rivalry, jealousness
and heartburnings among the princes en-
tertainers at the famous summer resort.
THE prince is charming man.. said
the leader OF Newport's 400. "He Is the
sort of a man people love to entertain.
Rivalry? Why, no, simply that every
body wanted to entertain Prince Wilhelm
because they liked him. so heartily
Then she told why they liked him. nam
ing his great charm OF naturalness first.
"The prince has won US all by his unaf-
fectedness. his genuine simplicity" as
serted Mrs. Fish. lie mas the mOuesty
that appeals TO Americans"
How did his lavish entertainment at
the hands OF Newport society affect him?"
she was asked.
THAT recalls another OF his good quail
ities," she replied smiling. His sincere
appreciation OF hospitality. He is so ap-
preciative one has an added zest in try
ing to please him. Indeed. everybody was
OF the same opinion"
Then she spoke of the princes demo-
cratic spirit, his utter lack of that unfor-
tunate disposition knows as snobbishness.
1.-THE prince was very nice to everybody.
He did not discriminate" she said. ''He
is a true democrat. He seemed TO enjoy
the Swedish ball on Saturday night, just
as well as he enjoyed anything. He was
glad to go. and had good time. That Is
the sort OF young man he is, and think
that is why he is generally liked"
Mrs. Fish dwelt upon Prince Wilhelm's s
extreme modesty. and simplicity. mo
amount OF fetes, favors or compliments
could spoil him." she declared. "He is
too genuine. He knows true values. He
does not attach undue Importance To
merely superficial things"
THE prince had just the qualities that
captivated all who met him and made all
equally desirous OF demonstrating their
regard.
