"You will remember sometime ago, I said that if the President Liners employed the same efficiency and care in handling freight as they do in taking care of their passengers, it would pay us to route all of our shipments via the Dollar and American Mail Lines. This cable says

Shipment arrived perfect condition, record- time'. From now on all our freight as well as employees will go on the Presidents.”

HONG KONG TIDE TABLE,

A Crisis Surmounted. This was particularly the case. op account of the delicate state of health of his father. during the critical year 1005, when Norway broke away from the Union. The self-sacrificing conduct of the King and the Crown Prince on this oc- ension contributed very strongly to the peaceful settlement of the con- fict, and to the fact that the final. dissolution of the Union was carried out in a way that has led to last- ing friendship and increased con- fidence between the two peoples.

Immediately on his succession in 1007, King Gustaf showed that he had mastered the problem of the times and understood the change in the position of the monarchy which had actually taken place in

Sat. consequence of the advance of demo. cracy. The King decided to dis

pense with the Coronation 'cere. mony, which formerly had been the occasion of a display and he also diminished the pageant at the opening of the Riksdag "and" othër important occasions, and introduced greater simplicity in daily life.

was inaugurated. The Triple Royal HAMBURG-AMERIKA LINIE,

meeting at Minimo was followed by another one at Oslo in 1917, where King Gustaf made an appeal for h new form of unity and agreement between the three countries. **Let us form a fresh Union," he said in In public speech, not of the old kind, but a union of mutual under- standing and of hearts, the vitality of which I trust will be more Inst ing than that of the former kind." With that he grasped the hands of the other two Kings, and his“ appeal was scaled before the nations by a silent promise. The

the three countries has reacted

favourably to them all during the

years after the war.

Meeting Democracy Half Way, King Gustaf has with great acumen judged the political condi tions and the claims for political expression of modern developments, with the consequence that the foundations of constitutional mon- archy in Sweden stand firm, The advance of democracy has circum- stanced the royal prerogative, but no essential alterations have occurred. After the war Socialist Govern- ments have alternated with Conscr vative and Moderate Governments without any change in relation to the Monarchy,

King Gustaf has reached his 70 years in perfect mental and bodily health. He has always been a lover. of open-air games and is a good sportsman. He is still a good tennis player, able to enter the field against younger opponents, and even defeat them. This is some- thing to be proud of at 70 years of age, "even" for a king,
