He wasn't over-awed by bishops with mitres or heralds with swords, nor did a hundred cameras and the glare of light dampen his juv« enile enthusiasm. History sounding fanfares on many trumpets de- lighted him. But what charmed Britain most was that in his young way he had a sense for the solemn moments of deepest religious significance. Made Prince of Wales sitting ever so quietly at his grand- mother's side, during the high ceremony of the anointing, and the crowning of his mother. "So let's make him Prince of Wales now," exclaimed many Welshmen, and Londoners echoed approval. 2 There had been some doubt whether he is old enough to be the central figure of what would amount to a sort of a miniature coronation at the ruin of a vast castle at Caernarvon, Wales. "But nene," said the Daily Sketch today, "who saw how superbly and completely naturally he played his part in the exhausting ronation proceedings could have been left any doubt on this point." There has been no Prince of Wales since 1936, when the present He was a well-behaved little boy, Duke of Windsor dropped the title to become King Edward VIII.
