Real Royalty

Crown Prince Gustavus Adolphus of
Sweden and his wife, Princess Louise
were in Billings this morning They
were on their way to Yellowstone
Park where they will spend a week
viewing its scents wonders. 1t is doubt
full if there is a more democratic
prince in Europe than Gustavus Adolf
plus or a more charming and likable
princess than Louise But, after all,
simplicity is sign of real greatness
and it is no wonder that the American
people are vieing with the Swedish
people and those of Swedish extraction
in doing honor to that royal couple.
They belong to a race represented by
all Scandinavian people, who are noted
for their frugality, simplicity and
good sense; they represent nation
that for centuries has set an example
of fidelity, integrity and right living
that the world would do well to emu
late. The Swede-the Scandinavian
is a good citizen wherever placed and
no higher tribute can be paid to any
man or race.

NV Old Kentucky Home

The band concert at 18th and Broad
way Saturday evening was the best
ever and was duly appreciated by the
large crowd present to hear it. Every
number was deserving of special men,
ton but when they rendered, 'My Old
Kentucky Home" with variations, they
certainly touched a popular chord.
One need not be Kentuckian nor even
a Southerner to be moved to emotion
when he hears that tune played as it
was played Saturday evening; it is the
keynote of every sentiment that is
connected with the word "Home"
wherever it may be.
In it is the plaintive call of the
hooking bird in his native heath
where the sweet magnolias bloom. 1t
brings back again the shadowy joys
of yester year when all the world
seemed bright and fair and hearts
were full and strong; when life itself
was fairy tale and the wind when it
breathed upon the honeysuckle about
the door whispered of naught but love
and fame and glory strobe the sun
beams.
"My Old Kentucky Home, is more
than just song. 1t is flash p1
imagery, burst of eloquence and g
wealth of glittering thoughts scattered
like fref1ies over a clover field. 1t is
a sermon bourn on the wings of deal
old melody with subtle note of hope
awakening tender memories and II
that melody is the light of innocent
childhood, and the shadows of sombel
age.
"My Old Kentucky Home"-no won
der it is always popular and ever new
for it is radiant smile penetrating

long time ago doesn't it, but man
now living in Red Lodge was present
there as a soldier for the Union and
a man now living at Belfry was born
there during the battle. Twenty-eight
years ago day after tomorrow occur
red the battle of Santiago, and, by the
way, man now living at Joliet was
present as a member of the American

soon will be on a par with Roberts,
