Her Royal Highness
Directed by Walter EdwinPrincess Alicia was plainly bored. A baron stood behind her chair and two highborn ladies waited at either hand to obey her slightest whim. Later, when a favorable opportunity presented itself, Princess Alicia ran away. Her heart urged her to stop and play in the mud with some peasant children--Princess Alicia was only 11 years old and heart was very like the heart of any child, and she had never played in the dirt before in her life. How Alicia brought her little ragamuffin friends back to the palace unobserved while the royal guards at the command of her distracted king were searching high and low for her; how they crept up to the nursery and made a magnificent mud pie with the earth in the flower pots there; and finally, how the king found them at this plebeian amusement and sternly sentenced the little peasants to come every day to play with Princess Alicia, can best be discovered by seeing this charming little play.
