PRINCE'S TYPEWRITING
One of the accomplishments of the Prince of Wales, not often mentioned, is that of typewriting. When he travels, a portable machine is part of his luggage. He manages it very handily. He can type in a train with the machine balanced on his knees.
It is stated that after his three days' house-to-house visit to the mining villages in the north, the Prince lost no time, when he boarded the train that brought him South, using his typewriter to set down his impressions of what he had seen. He is quick thinking. By the time Grantham was reached he had typed three or four pages.
