Plans are being perfected for the
celebration of the tenth anniversary
of the accession to the throne by King
Gustaf v. The event will occur in
1917. Preparations are started at such
an early date on account of the in
tended scope of the celebration.
Among other things it is proposed to
publish great historical work on the
Bernadotte family. A large national
fund may be raised for some charita-
BILE purpose and named after the king
and the queen, provided they give
their consent. There are two reasons
why the kings ten-year jubilee is Sc
lected for the celebration. The four
hundredth anniversary of the Luther
an reformation will occur in 1917, and
the same year will mark the end OF
the first century OF the royal rank of
the Bernadotte family.
