Seville can talk of nothing but: the activities, the adaptability, and akill in dancing of the Prince of Wales and Prince George. A radi-. cal change in men's fashions has. been brought about by the Prince- of Wales. Spanish youths are- adopting sporting clothes and soft collars, which they have worn before. Since the arrival of ́ the Prince they attend even dances' in sporting dress and soft collars. Spanish etiquette regarding even- Ing dress is more rigid than Eng-- lish, but the Frinces have Intro- duced unheard of freedom, going to dances in sport shoes and alik. collars in the American, fashion.
