The most Welcome gift that
the Queen and her family re-
ceive at Christmas is privacy.
Royal Christmases are .tragi•
tionally spent atSandringham,
a village near England's -East
Coast, far from London and the
ever present demands of public
life.
Sandringham House is per-
haps, the Queen's favorite
among her residences, since it
is probably the only place where
she and her family can relax
and forget for a while the ar-
duous role of royalty.
Sandringham, unlike the oth-
er royal residences, is the per-
sonal property of the Queen,
an added attraction since she
must sometimes feel like an
eternal guest in England's many
palaces of state. It has no par-
ticular historical importance at-
tached to it, and it is free from
the unhappy legends of past
history that haunt many of the

• Happy Memories
Although .Sandringham was
the scene of the death of Eiliza
beth's father and grandfather,
King George VI and George V,
it is nonetheless steeped in
other more happy memories of
the Queen's own childhood
Christmases.
Christmas is perhaps the on-
ly occasion, apart from formal
affairs of state, when Britain's
royalty get together as a fam-
ily and share in the festivities
that an average Canadian fam-
ily takes for granted.
Prince Charles and Princess
Ann return from their boarding
schools to join their young
brother Andrew, who is now at
an age when he can appreciate
the Yuletide spirit.
What does a little prince, sec-
ond in line to England's throne,
get for Christmas? His weight
in jewels or a stable of Ara-
bian stallions? Among Andrew's
gifts last Christmas was a toy
duck that quacks, a present
from Princess Ann, who knows
wphat small boys, even royal
ones, like to play with.
Andrew's little cousin, Vis-
count Linley, may also spend
the holiday at Sandringham
with Princess Margaret and
Lord Snowdon. And the Queen
Mother is a regular member of
the royal circle at Christmas.

. 1 ;
the days when ;her, daughters,'
as 4dren, staged elaborate'
Christ'uas pantonines for tfie
aln.usen eilt of guests. It is
doubtful that Britain's tomboy
Princess Anne shares h.e r
mother's taste for such amuse
meats, She and her elder bro-
ther probably prefer riding
around the Sandringham estate
with Prince Phillip, to dressing
up in hooped skirts and pow-
dered wigs.
As "squire of Sandringham,"
the Queen comes as close to
living as a private citizen as it
is possible for a monarch to
come. "Squire" is a term used
by the tenants of an English
estate to refer to its owner, and
it is as such that the residents
of Sandringham regard Eliza-
beth.
Each Christmas she and her
family attend services in the
local church and mix freely
with the villagers, safe from
the stares and flash -bulb pop-
ping that greet them in any
other part of Great Britain.
In the tradition of a country
squire, .the Queen awards prizes
at the local grammar school and
attends charity functions to
help the needy at Christmas.
One of the biggest and hap-
piest festivities of the Christ-
mas season is the tenant's ball,
a party for all the villagers liv-
ing on the Sandringham estate.
The ball is held in the magnifii-
cent ballroom of the palace and
is highlighted by a huge Christ-
mas tree which is loaded with
gifts for everyone.
But even at this time of the
year, Queen Elizabeth cannot
entirely forget that she is
Queen of Great Britain and
Head of the Commonwealth.
State papers demanding her at-
tention and signature arrive
daily from London, and these
must be dealt with, regardless
of the festive season.
The Commonwealth
But the most important offi-
cial function of Christmas, and
probably the one which taxes
the Queen most heavily, is the
Christmas message, which is
broadcast from Sandringham
house to every country in the
Commonwealth.
Since a few years ago, when
it -was decided to televise the
Queen's greeting, so that her
subject might see as well as
hear their sovereign, Sandring-
ham has been invaded by arc,
lights and cameras, in addition
to the large staff of technicians
required to see that the mes-
sage goes on -the air without a
hitch.
For the first time, Canadians
have been able to glimpse into
this royal palace where the
Queen and her family celebrate
Christmas. And despite the
elegant trappings, . Christmas
with the Mountbattens in Sand-
ringham is not too different
from Christmas anywhere in
Canada or the Commonwealth.
