TWO HAPPY DAYS

The King has sent a message to the Fleet expressing his entire satisfaction with everything he has seen and congratulating all ranks and ratings: "I shall not casily forget the impressive spectacle of the review, in which I am pleased to think that ships of the Merchant Navy have for the Brst time taken part, while the success with which the Fleet exer- cises have been carried out to-day bears witness to the traditional efficiency of the Royal Navy. These two happy days spent by me at sea, accompanied by my sons, and with the Service to which I had the Honour to belong for so many years, will remain one of the most inspiring recollections of my Jubilee."
