import javafx.scene.layout.VBox;
import javafx.scene.text.Font;
import javafx.stage.Stage;

public class LabelApp extends Application {
 @Override
 public void start(Stage primaryStage) throws FileNotFoundException {

  Label label1 = new Label("Hello World");
  label1.setFont(new Font("Arial", 30));

  Label label2 = new Label("Hello World");
  label2.setFont(new Font("Cambria", 30));

  VBox vBox = new VBox(10, label1, label2);
  vBox.setAlignment(CENTER);

  Scene scene = new Scene(vBox, 500, 500);

  /* Set the scene to primaryStage, and call the show method */
  primaryStage.setTitle("JavaFX Label Example");

  primaryStage.show();
 }
