ROYAL VISIT TO ISLE

Duke Honours Isle Of Kind

(Special Air-Mail Service]

Skye, Sept. 18.

Skye history was made yesterday in the stirring Highland celebrations of the royal visit to the Misty Isle by the Duke and Duchess of York, who at tended the special opening ceremony at Portree of the Carnegie Trust's" £60,000 hostel for boys.

DUKE'S PRAISE Delighted With Island's Romance And Beauty

The Duke of York, in declaring the hostel open, said-

¦ "The Duchess of York and I are very glad to be here with you to-day, and thank you all for the very loval and warm welcome you have given For years it has been our with to visit the island of Skye.

: One netable foature of the day was the fine tribute paid by the Duke when, in declaring the hostel open. he called Skye, The Isle of Kind and Loyal Hearts.” From early morning the roads lead-a ing to Portree were thronged with islanders-nien, women, and children all eager to have a share in the royal

occasion

The Duke and Duchess, with their host, MacLeod of MacLeod, and the distinguished house party-including Cameron of Lochiel, Convener of In: verness-shire, and the Earl of Elgin, chairman of the Carnegie Trust (after whon, the new hostel is named) motored from Dunvegan Castle through a grey Hebridenn mist.

street

The day's royal programme in Syke began at midday, when the Duke and Duchess drove from Dunvegan Castle for the formal opening of the boys' hostel.

In the dull wisty morning the Coolins were darkly veiled and the loch mysteriously shrouded. At Port- res, however, all was tartan and bunt hostel grounds it passed between

Wonren and children cheered and waved handkerchiefs. When the Duke and Duchess alighted the Duchess spoke for a moment with Mrs. Seton Gordon, wife of the Scots author and naturalist, and Miss Macdonald, of Viewbold, the two comthandants of the juvenile guards of honour.

Lochiel's Racy Speech

They then inspected the Margaret Carnegie Hostel for Girls, and passed into the marquee in which were as- sembled 600 people, representative of all parts of Skyo.

Cameron of Lochiel presided" over the opening ceremony, and made a racy and entertaining speech.

"I am informed," he said, "that this is the first official visit of any member of the royal family since the days of Prince Charlie. I am not sure that Prince Charlie's visit was altogether an official one, and I think that if he had been here to-day our proceedings would have been curtailed by the advent of English troops' and our bodies would have been food for the gulls."

"I have always heard that the make it fascinating to all lovers of romance and beauty of this island nature in hor varying moods and have earned for it such titles as The Isle: of Mists and Shadows and The fale of Glowing Moorland nurt Golden Shore

"Now, having seen this beautiful island- we drove across yesterday-1 should like to add another The Isle of Kind and Loyal Hearts' (Cheors.) "I am told it is

"It is well-known that the people of Scotland have for many years given education that important place in their lives which it deserves. There fore, by giving this hostel, the Carnegie Trustees have reoclerad a service to the whole nation.
