PRINCESS JULIANA.
EXCITEMENT IN HOLLAND. INTERNATIONAL INTEREST. LONDON, Jan. 19. Queen Wilhelmina has caused a notice to be put up outside Soestdylc Palace asking the public to abstain from any noisy demonstration in view of the fact that Princess Juliana needs all possible rest. The excitement throughout the nation is mounting hourly. Many people did not sleep last night, choosing to remain by their wireless sets. Broadcasting announcers for the past 48 hours have been sleeping in the studios in their clothes. A special 6taff of cooks at tho Palace is constantly making hot coffee for members of the staff. Presents continue to arrive daily, including eggs, storks, and woollens.
International interest is reflected in the British and French Press, the prominence given in sections of tho London Press equalling the prominence given before the birth of the Duke and Duchess of Kent’s children. The news of the birth will be flashed to the Dutch East Indies.
Will Dyson, in a cartoon in the Daily Herald entitled “Front Page,” depicts a stork flying against a background of a newspaper heading “War News,” amid shells, one shell saying to the stork, “Yah, interloper.”
Will Dyson passed away in Londoif only a few days ago.
