His Early Education.

The early education OF the young prince

mother. Rev. Henry Mnlred Birch was
his first tutor. Later the education Of
the young prince was placed in charge
Of Frederic w. Gibbs and special tutors
in art aud music. the classics. painting
and water colors. The great variety Of
his training gave the people OF England
some concern. a. they feared that the
education Of their future ruler was not
along sufficiently practical lines.
His subsequent career. however. fully
justified the judgment OF his mother in
giving him the broadcast possible kind
Of training. His tutors were always
! with him and during his early life ne
was allowed little time for jdleness or
pleasure. When q boy he visited Paris
with his father and was the guest OF
Napoleon III. He also travelled exten-
sively through England. visiting the
mills, iron works. coal mines and en-
cheering centers OF the island. Later
