Too Late

MT. w. Holt Whites recent book, 'sThe Peoples King" contains a little story of the late King Edward VII or England, with moral that grandpar- ents might wisely ponder-ther remarks of young people may be worth needing once in great while.
 At family luncheon at which three generations of the royal frmtly were present, the king was interrupted in his conversation by small voice call ing insistently: "GrandpapaI Grand papar
 For time the king devoted himself to his conversation and his salad, re- gardless of the voice which kept calling "Grandpapa." At last, compelled to pay attention to the interruption, the king uttered something about little boys who should be seen and not heard, and the rebuke silenced the prince.
 When the meal was over, the king turned to his little grandson and said:
 'Now tell me what you want"
 'It is too late now, grandpapa."
 "Why is it too late?"
 Because l only wanted to tell you there was a caterpillar on your lettuce" Youths Companion.
