A few weeks ago he went down to the offices of the Press - Association on a Saturday morning, and found himself "off the diary," - "For heaven's sake find me some sort of an assign- ment," he exclaimed to the city news editor, and was told since he | was so determined not to take a day's. holiday he might as well as- sist at the flying mezting at Hen- | don, He went out to the aero-| drome, and in crossing the road was knocked down by an auto, the injuries resulting in his death, Only | three years previously he was in- | volved in another motor accident, in! 'which he sustained a compound fracture of the leg and lost the in-| dex finger of his right hand, For 33 years George Smith *fal- lowed" for the Press Association the doings of 'the principal mem- bers of the Royal Family in Greut Britain, The King and Queen, the Prince of Wales, the Duke of Con- naught looked upon him not mere- ly as a newspaperman but as a! friend. The Prince had his own special nickname for Smith. In re-| porting the sayings and movements of Royalty, Smith was always the soul of discretion, and in his han- dling of his responsible duty he in- variabl carried himself with a per- sonal modesty of bearing, and show- ed a readiness to be helpful to so fortunately placed as himself, whieh would serve as a perfect ex- ample for younger mtn to follow. Once when the Prince of Wales returned from one of his Empire tours, the crowd which welcomed him at St, James's Palace was so large and so boisterous, thot it was ,impossible to hear what the Prince said in a short speech delivered from one of the windows. "Smith saw the Prince later in the Palace, and -took down a neat little speech of what the Prince had said--or .at any rate of 'what he had intended to say. "Will that do?" asked the Prince, and Smith said it would do very well. He went out to the rest of the anxious "boys" of Fleet street, and straightway dictated the whole of the vital spech to them. King Edward, too, thought a lot of Smith's work. Once when the late King presented new colors to the Guards, the press representa-- tives were too far away to hear a word of the King's speech. tion in which they intend each dif- ferent article to compete and to sign their names, and all entry fees must be paid to the Secretary when making entries.
