24. King Edward and
the School Boy.
When staying at a
country-house King Edward entered
the village school one
morning quite unexpectedly. In
his usual pleasant way he
asked the children a few
questions.
»Now, my young friends»,
said King Edward cheerfully,
»I dare say some of you can
tell me the names ot a few of
our greatest kings and queens?
With one accord they cried
out: »King Alfred and Queen
Victoria,- sir!»
Just then a tiny boy, to
whom the schoolmaster had
whispered something, stood
up, and raised his hand.
»Do you know another, my
boy?» asked the king. »Yes
your Majesty — King Edward
VII.»
