Edwarcl V7111 abdicated' the Fthroeie, thus placing his 'brother 'George VI as successor to the throne. The life of the, princess was hapliily spent with her parents and her sister, Margaret ,Rose, of whom she is ,very fond, To 1Nargaree, who is: rather of ,a retiring nature the prospeet of living in the Royal Palace 'was not at all appealing gbut from het eery rung diva Princess Elizabeth .deemed to appreciate the fad 'thet she ,night some day be Queen.

At any rate she lzaa eyideliitIy outgrown any :sueh feelings and is accepting :her .added responal- bizty in a quiet earnest manner. Should Elizabeth ascend the enema she 'will lie the fifth 'wmnan to be placed in such a position; Mary --1553-1558 Elleelbetin-,1658-1600; Anne -4702-1714; Victoria -1837;1901, Space does mot ,permit comment 'on their reigns, suffice to say they were all )periods of war. Mary had war with Franca; Elizabeth had tstubie wdti Mamie ;as did Queen Anne 'Queen Victosaa, who many still remember, endued her reign with the South Af- rican ;war. Our hope and ,prayer is that there 'will be no war in the 'time of ,Przneess _Elza:beth if and when ;she cones to ;the throne. On the day of the opening of 'parliament, referred to above, perirgjps as never before, the Princess realized that there were re.. sponeibSlitres"ahead of her such as,site had not antiiapated. She is reported as fidgeting. Robert Browning in his poem "Vaetozia's Tears" tells very graphically of the reaction of Prin.. cess Victoria when informed that she was Queen of Great Britain. He says "She wept to wear a crown". Victoria was on the 'throne three years when she too at the age 0E21 was married. Her ,consort was Albent of Saxe - Coburg. They were apparently very happy. The reigning Royal family have preferred a simple home life and the daughters of the Ring and Queen have been brought up in a very appy atmosphere. Many pictures ave Been shown of homey scenes in the Royal Palace 'where the King reads to his Queen and daughters, while they knit and sew. The members the family are very devoted to ane another and have well learned the art of self sacrifice. It was said of Ring George V that e ruled well,, because "he brought ut the best impulses of his people." he same may be truly said of King eorge VI. He is new only 50 veers age and is apparently in good ealth. According to earthly, laws it seends the throne. It is possible that ay be many years before Elizabeth 1 that will he changed in the twink- g of an eye. Princess Elizabeth has en and will continue to be well trained for the position she may some y occupy. As things stand today when Pron- es Elizabeth 'comes to the throne will do so wi,h the least power any of her women predecessors. ere are many things which a ening sovereign of Great Britain y do such as closing all the urches or declaring war on any untry, but anything like that which y could do they would not dare y their country by attempting to ut through.
