'S Whitehall, PAGE TEN THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, SATURDAY, MARCH 1, 1930 KING'S YOUNGEST SON KNITS WELL Prince . Georgé's Unusual . Hobby For His Leisure Hours .. London, England, March 1.--Prince Geroge is probably the [least- known member of the whole Royal Family, for unfortunately he does not enjoy such good health as kis brothers, so cannot take as 'full a part in public affairs, writes 'Hettie Grimstead in the Sheffield 'Weekly Telegraph. During his boyhood the Prince Jed a rather circumeribed life ow- "Ying to his delicate throat, The doc- dors thought sea air would streng- then this, so the young Prince join- ed the Navy, but, to his disappoint- "ment, his constitution proved in- sufficiently rcbust for such a vig- orous career, Now the Prince works at the Forelgn Office in where his linguistic fprowess, particularly in French ani Spanish, enables him to deal very efficiently with the diplomatic dis- patches that find their way to his desk. ; There is nothing invalidish about Prince George, however. He is an exceedingly bright and cheer! young man, interested in even kind of sport. Though his doctors forbid active participation in some games, he plays tennis and plays Eit well. Every fine morning he ani "his equerry have a set before "breakfast on the court in Bucking- ham Palace grounds, their audience fbeing the Prince's hig Alsatian dog {Leopold, who accompanies afte Royal Master everywhere, Prince George is an enthusiastic fmotorist, too. Not long ago, he bought a new car, a powerful coupe with a long black fabric body, up- {holstered inside with biege leather 'and fitted with numerous ingenious gadgets including 'an automatic ceigarette lighter, The Prince us ually drives himself, with Leopold sitting beside him: on guard. like a competent Scotland Yard tive. oi The Prince has made himself a comfortable bachelor home in one of the suites. at Buckingham Pal- ace. His big sitting-room is paint- ed light blue, the furniture being carved dark oak, There is a cot- tage piano at which the Prince wilt sit for hours, playing favorite se- loctions from Gilbert and Sullivan and other light opéras. Under the window stands a capacious book- case recently' introduced by the Queen for the first editions of con- temporary modern novelists which the Prince collects. He is a great reader and frankly- confesses that he prefers fiction, including detoc- tive and adventure stories. Prince George is fond of dancing also and vies with the Prince of Wales for tho distinction of being the best performer in the Royal circle. He is 5 "film fan" as well and. with a couple of friends, pays a regular weekly visit to a certain Wost End cinema. They go quite unannounced, taking their turn in the box office quene and usually finding seats at the back of the stalls, Prince George smokes his pipe, out on one occasion an ola lady who occupied the next seat reremptorily commanded him 'uv "Put that pipe away, young man!" ndding darkly she was quite surc his mother didn't khow he smokaq such a nasty thing. The Royal of- 'Tirt4 fender obeyed instantly and prof- fered his politest regrets! This slim, blue-eyed Prince, has a rather unusual Lobby, that of knitting, He learned to weild the needles as a child, not being strong enough to join in robust romping, and he still likes to pass a leisure hour knitting.

Great affection exists between Prince George and Princess Eliza beth, and they are often discover- ed playing horses together om the nursery floor. Not long ago the Prince gave his little niece a coral necklace he specially brought over from Parls, while on another oc- casion he visited innumerable toy- shops in order to find the mechan- {cal camel on which she had set her heart.

FOREST FIRES BURNED OVER 208,450 ACRES Worst Hazard Since 1923, But Loss Is Lighter Than That Year 'Toronto, Mar. 1.--An arca of 450 acres was laid waste by the 588,- 1,508 conflagrations whiclt gave the Pro- vince of Ontario last summer and fall the worst forest fire hazard with which it has had to cope since 1923. This acreaage represents an in- crease pf some 100,000 acres over the destraction wrought by fire in 1928, and approximately 550,000 acres more than were devastated in 1927, but is a great deal lower than the loss in 1923, when 1,343 fires combined to burn more than 2,000,000 acres. Classification of the area burned last year, as given to the Legislature yesterday by' Hon, William Finlayson shows that 98,785 acres were of tim- ber land, mainly coniferous 918 acres, mainly hardwood;' 119,531 acres, cut-over land with soft wood left; 4,965 acres cut over land with some hardwood remaining; 145821 acres, young growth, mainly conifer- ous; 8951 acres, young growth, main- ly hardwood; 203,580 acres barren land, and 5,899 acres, grass land. Fire-ranging expenditures last year totalled $1,674,013.87, which was off- sgt to some extent by the $353,258.67 in' fire tax collected by the depart. ment. In 1928 the corresponding fig- res were $1,211,776.72 and $367,313. 80. Mr. Finlayson revealed that the equipment of his "Northern firemen" --"the most scientific fire-fighting force in the world," as he described it to the House--is now made up as follows--Eleven district foresters, 12 air bases, 26 aircraft, 19 radio sta- tions, 53 motor cars, 115 motor trucks 106 motor boats, 1,971 miles of tele- phone, 358 portable fir¢ pumps, 801,- 000 feet of hose, "41 canoes, 177 fire lookout towers, 53 railway cars, and 117 railway velocipedes.
