King George V and Queen Mary Crowned

KING GEORGE V of England, and Queen Mary were crowned with most imposing ceremonies in old Westminster Church, London, on June 22. The American ambassador to the coronation declares that there has been nothing like this ceremony in history so far as magnificence is concerned. The report states that this great state pageant was carried through with dignity and impressiveness and made a deep impression upon all those privileged to witness it, and that it was accompanied by an outburst of loyalty throughout the kingdom, which might appear surprising at a period in the world's history when thrones no longer appear to be established on the surest foundations.
