fered with the popular rejoic.nss in
Kingstown and Dublin.
Although King George is considered a
more downright Tory than Gladstone's
friend, King Edward, was before him, a
hearty welcome has been accorded the
new sovereign. especially at the Royal
College OF Science, at Trinity College and
at the Phoenix Park races.

court lev6e. q state banquet, a garden
party and other social functions. Both

Leopardstown races and visit the hos
pitfalls. and the Prince Of Wales and
Princess Mary Will be prominent figures
in appealing to home loving instincts.
