Ann Dunn holds a kingsized re- cord for the "polyphon," made in Leipzig, Germany, over' 120 years ago. The polyphon still produces music foi% patrons in a London, England, restaurant. When a coin is deposited in the side of the machine, the brass disc rotates, spiking keys in music-box fashion.

Garden Party At Buckingham Garden parties at Bucking- ham Palace have been much democratized since World War II. But they still retain an at- mosphere quite out of the or- dinary. This applies right from the time the invitation arrives in a large white envelope with the royal crest on it and a post- mark which reads "Lord Cham- berlain, St. James's Palace." The card inside is very grand and has the rather surprising inscription: "The Lord Cham- berlain is commanded by Her Majesty to invite you to attend a Garden Party at Buckingham Palace (weather permitting)." Use of this word "command" conjures up a picture' of the Queen in stern mood, like the Queen of Hearts in Alice in ' Wonderland. One imagines her sitting at her desk biting the end of her pencil and saying to a timid and worried Lord Chamberlain, "See that you get those Lynes along to the party this year," writes Peter Lyne in "The Christian Science tor. When the Lynes received their invitation they put it in the center of the mantelshelf for all to admire. Mrs. Hall, the daily help, admired it .most of all. In this same week she had been marrying off her daughter and was inclined to go senti- mental over invitation cards. Unfortunately while she was fondling our card she somehow let it slip down a crack between the mantelshelf and the fire- back. The Lynes, having just moved into a new -house, have been so busy fixing their new garden that they haven't yet got around to doing all the jobs in- side the house which should be done, So here was a nice kettle of fish, as the London cockney would put it. It just wasn't pos- sible to regain the invitation card short of a major building operation to remove the whole fireplace. It is well-known that the Palace authorities are most unwilling to provide duplicate invitations. But it then dawned on us that there had been something else, inside the Lord Chamberlain's endelope beside the invitation. Yes, sure enough, tucked away inside a large yellow can-park sticker there were two separate admission cards to be given up at the Palace Gates. - It was all the pleasanter af- ter this adventure to be,;evalk- ing through the Palace Gates with crowds of watching Lon- doners pressed against the rail- ings. We joined a long queue in the courtyard which was threading its way through the hall and through a magnificent reception' room out onto the great lawns. We started to admire the ladies' creations.

It belonged to a kindly lecturer with commend- able foresight. At the time it didn't appear to have much, connection with the war. But in the end it has given tremend- ous satisfaction to a grateful Londoner. The practice at Palace garden parties is for the guests to form into several long avenues on the lawns. Down these avenues saunter the various members of the royal family accompa- nied by gentlemen ushers who Introduce a celebrity here, a debutante there.. From time to time the Queen or the Duke of . Edinburgh, or the Queen Moth- er or Princess Margaret, or Princess Alexandra take the initiative themselves to 'chat with someone they recognize: Bands play; the lawns are green arid velvety sons the flower beds are a picture; there is a pane of glass wants fixing in one of the greenhouses lust to make one feel more at home; the royal wheelbarrows are painted in pastel tints but have no royal crest on them. The re- freshinents are most wticome. While waiting' in the avenue down which the Queen Mother was walking we were told an amusing story about that much loved royal figure. The story was about curtsying.' The Queen Mother, it seems, was inspecting a girls' gynana- skim class. The instructress was remarking apologetically that curtsying hi gym briefs must look Don' rather Silly to Rer out Majesty. "t worry ab that," said the Queen Mother, "Yeu should have Seen what happen. ed when I WaS fishing for ealin- on id the RiVer. Dee one day.

Drive With. tate The Big Knife Bitter-sweet is the secret love story of Marie Antoinette, tho lovely Queen of France, and in- tensely romantic the story of the package of mysterious let- ters, found long after her death. Poets wrote odes to Marie Antoinette's beauty. A painter's fancy led him to place her por- trait in the heart of a full-blown rose. But these mysterious let, tors, with their burning Ines, sages, were vastly different from the vapid cempliments of the elegant, superficial court. Every word seemed charged with pas- sion arid devotion. Each letter was written with so perfect a discretion that a stranger might have read them and been none the wiser. Why should Marie Antoinette lock them away with her jewels and her most secret papers, regarding each letter as a jewel in itself? Perhaps even a queen finds solace in the knowledge that one peison loves her 'in the world, and Marie. Antoinette may have tenderly repeated a name over and over to herself in the dark watches of the night. Count Axel Fersen! Count Axel Fersen! The signature of -the letter came back to her as she sat in the gardens of the Louvre, in the moonlight, while musicians made sweet music and all Paris clustered outside the gates. It was spring in the year 1789 - but the very air seemed charg- ed with anticipation of the com- ing storm, until at last there was a tramping and a shouting, fierce footsteps and angry eyes Moving towards Versailles. It must have seemed a mad world to Marie Antoinette on the day when she looked from her windows at Versailles to see red fires flowing in the courtyard, sinister Shadows surrounding them and, outlined by the flames, the crooked caps of the revolu- tionaries. Then a pageboy came running to her, with• a strangely imperative note from Count Axel Fersen. "I beseech you to see me. You are in grave danger!" "Bid your master know the. Queen o2 France is never in danger," Marie • Antoinette. cried in imperious tones. Hardly had she spoken than a roar came from the courtyard, the sudden clash of steel against steel. In that instant,• toe, the tapestry against the wall was thrust on one side and a man stood there. "Madame Majesty - at your service! I regret the necessity for this intrusion. •You are alone?" "And you' are Count Axel' Fersen?" " " There was no need of answer. He was' tall, fine and manly, and his eyes sombre. "I beg you to place a cloak around you ma'am. There are secret passages and byways. Your sentries cannot withstand this mob." "Yet there are many men to guard the Queen of France." "At present," he answered, "there is only one man to guard the woman I love." His arms were about her as his cloak encircled her shoul- ders. His eyes, glowing and strange, looked deep into hers. "I cannot leave my husband my children," she whispered. He paid no heed. "This door, Ma'am. We shall cheat them." She was still reluctant, and he half-carried, half-pulled her. He closed his eyes, stooped, kissed her hand, "I am at your service, Majesty - but remem- ber!" Did she remember? As the royal carriage returned to Paris that fatal dawn, the mob about It, as she looked in fear from her window and saw the heads of her former guards borne aloft on pikes, did she see Count Axel following not far behind? When she heard from her ladies that the rioters had stabbed her mate, tress and set fire to the hangings hi attempts to And her biding place, she knew that the Count had saved her life. The first Wave o&aevolution rolled away, Marie Antoinette and Louis XVI were again in Paris, in the palace, in comfort, comparatively unperturbed - hut still came those gentle let- ters from Count Axel Fersen, and still Marie Antoinette, reads ing between the lines, could trace the aspirations of an un. dying love. The storm was again rising fast when he once again offered her escape, this time for her husband and, children as well as herself. And at midnight two hooded children, with a thick-set figure and a lady in a gipsy hat, en- tered the waiting coach and were driven away. Rattle, rattle over the cobbles of Paris-but was this the right way? Flurried by the occasion, the courier had turned left and not right. Valu- able minutes were lost before he could retrace the way. Outside the gates the Count was waiting. They were late. Had they been discovered? Long past the appointed time the refugees arrived. The Queen, safe after perils, gave him a smile before she entered the second carriage. The children followed, and lastly the king. But the sleeping Paris was awakening and enemies were coming fast behind them. Marie Antoinette, jogging and swaying in the carriage, did not know that overnight, during this ad- venture, her hair was whitening. At a distant village another coach was waiting and horses ready ordered. It was the work of an instant for the royal party to ,change coaches and for For-• serf to bow in a lowly, silent adieu. In the dewy dawn the pos- tilions vaulted into the saddles and were off - and with them went the Queen. But it already too late to do more to serve them when the next news reached the Count. The flight of the royal party was discovered due to that wrong turning in Paris. The coaches were turned back at Varennes. • * • It was another dewy dawn, Hold Those Horses!. at the. speed trOit, .14.trirAginnYt:ttyWCI„:auarggv'ga'hsi orlmvo°etieiservih5e.tn, vertisements coming from.

She faced the guillotine with courage enough; her head fell; the executioner showed it to the. people. And to Count Axel Fersen that evening was brought a packet contai a lock of hair and the words, "In remembrance, from one who has not forgotten -Marie Antoinette."
