Insomniac
On the 27th birthday of Prince George, last week, his comptroller, Major Ulick Alexander, sought to calm public uneasiness at the fact that for some weeks the precise whereabouts of H. R. H. have not been generally known. After asserting that Prince George had been "staying at Sunningdale and devoting a large part of his time to golf," Major Alexander said: "It must always be borne in mind that his digestion is weak and. what perhaps is not generally known, that he suffers from insomnia."
The Major added that his charge is not expected to resume his post at the Foreign Office for "several months." Rumors are current in London that H. R. H. combats insomnia with white powders, one school of rumor holding that they are ordinary sleeping powders.
