The Farmer. - Rome, July 5. Whatever the future may hold of sorrow or Joy for the royal children of Italy, the son and three email daughters of King Victor Emanuel and Queen Helena will be able to "look back upon an exception ally happy childhood. ' The Quirinal Palace in Rome, where the children live, has its own shaded gardens, but -lest these should not suf fice, the King has bought a villa close to the city to serve as an -open play ground for the youngsters. This villa is on the ancient Via Salaria. The children are often taken out to it in motor cars, and spend long afternoons at play with their ponies and other pets, exactly as though -they were In the real country; When spring comes the little prince, Umberto, aged nine, and his sisters, Yolanda, "Mafalda and Glovanna, re spectively twelve, eleven and six years old, go down ' to' their father's hunting lodge of Castel Porziano, about fifteen miles from Rome, r where a scented wood of pine trees' borders the Med iterranean and where, dressed in sim ple and practical clothes, they live in the open air, bathing and climbing trees- till they- become as brown as berries and as hardy as the children of -the peasants around them. Later on In the summer they go to the sea shore at San Rossore, near Pisa, and later still v to the fine country Castle of Racconigi. In Piedmont, ' which has always been . the summer residence; of the Carlgnano. branch of the House of Savoy. - : It used to be the fashion for Italian children 1 of the better class to dress elaborately, like miniature .editions of their parents, but Queen Helena, real izing how much happier is the life of boys and girls who . have , not to care for their clothes, has set the fashion for simplicity by always dressing her children -in , loose and comfortable "sailor suits." Thus arrayed the Roy al , youngsters enjoy without restraint the luxuries of digging, gardening and paddling in the sea. . The eldest of the family, Princess Yolanda, is a - handsome girl and al ways looks well In". her white serge suits with broad' collars, but she is rather precocious, as are many Italian girls, and already shows a truly fem inine interest In" matters of dress. It Is a great Joy to her to be allowed to assist in selecting her mother's mll llneny. and she chooses hats for the Queen on a most lavish scale, never allowing herself to be trammeled by considerations of expense. Yolanda admires her beautiful mother intense ly, and -she was present on a public occasion recently when some one re marked to her that the Queen was looking particularly well. The little girl answered: "My mother is the very handsomest Queen in Europe." After ji ehort pause she 'added: "And I am going to be exactly like her." The resemblance between mother and daughter is most striking. Paris, July 5. "Art for the Child" Is the title of an interesting little exhibi tion now open in Paris. The object Is to brighten the surroundings and to train the sense of beauty of the child, and numbers of delightful toys de signed with this end in view are dis played. M. Leo Clareti, one of the principal organizers of the exhibition, says:. "If art Is to be instilled into the masses , It must be done in infan cy, and a surviving tendency must be created before dally labor begins to diminish leisure." Many attractive and Interesting things are on view, but it is noticeable that no dolls' houses are displayed. Instead, modern boys and girls are to have their own little bungalows in the garden. These tiny summer houses and L km INEURAI7C shut oat All intruding adult fcy t:;'!?j low roofsthe eaves of which are only' three feet from - the ground, and they have their privacy still further pre- ( served by white fences twenty Inches J high running all around them. Berlin, July 8. The dedfction of a "Fairyland Fountain" m a. publlo t-rftc of Berlin was one of the municipality's contributions toward celebrating the quarto-centennial of the Emperor's reign. The original design for thla foun tain was finished and shewn at in art exhibition twelve years ago. After having been approved by the ponce authorities, the design -came back to the City Hall with the Information that the Emperor declined to pass It. His criticism was that the figures rep resenting the famous charactem in fairy stories -were made mere details in the general architectural scheme mo that the children, for whom the foun tain was Intended, could scarcely rec ognize their-story book favorlteaL E"l Majesty recommended that this "grown-up" allegorical design fee re jected, the fairy heroes and heroines be brought together In groups, and above all he advised the municipal officials to secure the services of ionn sculptor who had shown his ability -to do work ' In a way that appealed "ta f children. The Emperor's Interference caused much unfriendly criticism in the news- ! papers, and the city fathers argued that he had exceeded his authority, i Nevertheless, they appointed a com mittee to consider his suggestion. The ; services of a Munich sculptor were j secured, and after several years . new . design was approved by both the Elm- J peror and the city. The fountain hajs seen ereetea, ana now Berlin children are revelling In the wonderful playground where they may see the heroes of their story books. , The figures are placed in groups arOUna IWO imnmn, iuo j of which covers nearly mar an acre. Red Riding Hood is there, and so Js j the Wolf. Here also Is Jack-in-Luck j and his Pig, Pue-in-Boots, Clnderelia p-- vPr sltnper, Sleeping Beauty, and ' all the rest , of the old time favorite. ! The whole conception Is a happy oiw, i the poetry of the child life Is fitting! y j embodied in lasting stone amid beau- , tlful surroundings, and it la agreed on J all eides that much credit, for the final success of the idea, is due Emperor William for his rejection of the first designs.
