Th e king is required to keep a staff . uniformed retainers around him. " J y garbed in bright ret! tunica, hm they are for show purposes to n his dignity as ruler of the £ h Empire About half a dozen Ssonal servants suffice to attend to needs of the Royal family at the naa( e. including valets and pages for king himself, ladies' maids for the queen and a valet each for the two sons who live at home. Prince Henry ,[)uke of Gloucester) and 1 rinee George, the young sailor prince. Continuous surprises of the intimate homely life the Royal family leads were afforded during a few w «.|Ui passed inside Buckingham palace. providing a contrast with the nomp and magnificence of the king s contact with-outside affairs, such as it state functions, receptions to brother monarchs from other parts of the world and other glittering gatherings.. About'2o rooms are used by the king and queen and their family, although there are many more in the vast royal residence. The royal household arises as 8 a. m. but as a concession the queen sometimes permits her sons, if they have no pressing public engagements, to sleep a little longer. Breakfast is taken either in the Green Room at the back section of the royal apartments, close to the king's personal rooms, or in the Chinese room at the front, overlooking both the Mall and Downing Street and Charing Cross. Terrific Hustle Breakfast finished, the business of the day begins, involving sometimes a terrific hustle. The busiest boys in the world are probably the three princes who, as declared to the United Press by a palace official, never stop from early morning until late at night. Demands on their time by social, personal and public engagements are so pressing that they arrive at the palace just in time for meals and leave as soon as possible. Each evening dinner is served at 8:30 o'clock. Usually the princes arrive at 8:25 p. m„ allowing themselves five minutes in which to struggle into their tuxedos anti be promptly at table in order not to incur their royal mother's displeasure, which sometimes can be very keen. They are usually at the table on time. Given greater liberty since he moved some years ago to St. Janies' Palace, Wales now strolls into his father's home whenever it pleases him and obviously enjoys the change. He never fails to chat with the old servants in his father's employ when he meets them in the corridors and as he is whisked aloft in the elevator to the royal chambers on the first floor he jokes with the attendant he has known since childhood. Since his sons have grown up, King George, always a home-loving man. has been relieved of many public functions enabling him to spend much of his time as he likes best, Particularly pouring over .his collection of foreign st; mps, his favorite hobby. o ... — NOTICE Lady who took package containing abdominal support at Kroger's store > s known.

ENGINEERS TOLD OF NEW POWER CONTROL DEVICE Circuit Breaks To Facilitate Switching Shown To A. 1. E. E. Convention New York, Jan. 30. - (U.R) — What may prove to be a revolutionary development in the control and distribution of electrical power throughout the great interconnected systems of the country occupied first place in the discussions today at the session of tiie winter convention of the American institute of Electrical Engineers. Engineers from the laboratories of the Westinghouse Electric and manufacturing described the new apparatus, a circuit breaker designed to facilitate the switching of enormous quantities of electric current in normal service, or to clear faulty circuits instantaneously, with a minimum of the hazards present in the equipment now being used for these purposes. 11.

Os 82 operations, conducted by the Commonwealth company with two test circuit-breakers, he said, only two were successful in clearing the circuit. As compared with the heavy-duty oil circuit-breakers now In use, this performance Is significant, Jamieson inferred. In neither of the two failures was there any damage done to the test house or equipment, nor was there any resultant fire as frequently occurs under curt ent practice. Spectators were unable to observe the results at a distance of one hundred yards, and moving pictures were token of the operations.

Much work was done in speeding up the deionization of an arc in order to avoid destruction of tile plates, Dr. Sleplan explained. In view of tiie existing theory that the intense heat of an arc cathode was constant. Not until it was forced upon his attention that frequently ares
