The Whitsun week-end has been an open air holiday for a great majority of the people of Britain. The King and Queen spent today at Royal Lodge, Windsor, and this morning His Majesty was out riding with the two princesses in Windsor Great Park. Continuous rain fell in Glasgow, marring the pleasure of the crowds at the Empire Exhibition and spoiling the effect of the state drive by the Lord Mayor of London through the streets of Glasgow to the Exhibition. Despite the weather, large crowds lined the streets to see the historic state coaches of the Mayor and sheriffs, which had been brought specially by train from London.
