The Smiling Dnchess. As all England rejoiced, they announced their engagement in January, 1923, and were married later in the same year. The new Duchess of York promptly became one of the most beloved figures in all British life. Technically, Elizabeth, was known as a commoner, but there are many kings and queens in the ancestry of her family. She is plump, gentle and gracious, and soon became known far and wide as the smiling duchess. Few princesses or queens have ever gained such a hold on popularity as Elizabeth, who insisted once that she liked to be called in the Lizzie. She is simple virtues that one might expect of a Scottish housewife. Her devotion to her family has further endeared her to the people. Elizabeth knows all about the rigors and exigencies of a household budget Her family was not extremely wealthy; indeed, it is said her father had to sell some of his properties to give her a wedding and provide her with a modest dowry. At her wedding she requested that only "useful gifts be sent The simplicity of her spirit is not betrayed by any outward showiness.

He who is now the king once admitted publicly: My chief claim to fame seems to be that I am the father of Princess Elizabeth. d Princess ElizLittle, abeth, now ten years old, is indeed the darling of the empire, as she has be"en ever since her birth. She is the heir presumptive to the throne and, unless there Is a male child born to her father and mother at some future date, she will be Englands first Queen Bess in 330 years. She has one sister, Margaret Rose, who is six years old. Today, as Britains probable next ruler, little Elizabeth occupies much the same position in the public eye that the former Prince of "Wales-kn- own to her as Uncle David did for many years. During all her short life she has been tutored constantly with the Idea in mind that she might some day be queen. The British cabinet has been especially watchful over her education. Her mother pleaded that Elizabeth be allowed to attend a private school and make the acquaintance of other little girls of her own age, but she was overruled.' So from tutors the little princess was destined to learn French, literature, piano, dancing, writing, and arithmetic. Her grandmother, Queen Mary, teaches her etiquette and diplomatic convention. Queen Mary is fond of the child, but does not spoil her. The story is g told that once one of the in the royal household addressed her, Good morning, little Young Elizabeth replied, lady. Please remember that I am a princess. Later in the day Queen Mary heard of it, and took Elizabeth back to see the gentleman of Elizathe mornings encounter. beth is indeed a princess, said the queen, but she is trying hard to become a little lady. well-traine- d Its ed per True to the Brisbane tradition, he kept up the terrific pace of his woik to thff lastWhen he was stricken late in the afternoon of Christmas eve he had almost finished his column, "Today, which appeared in many large daily newspapers, principally those of William Randolph Hearsts Btring.

The "dress-umovement is growing more and more so with each passing hour. From style centers come reports that an astonishing number of formals are selling this season and that the call for handsome afternoon gowns in rich metallics, velvets and laces is reaching beyond the usual. Gorgeous, glinting, gleaming, sparkling and arrestingly oolorful are the fabrics and laces that are fashioning the luxury apparel noted at fashionable gatherings. Then, too, the trend to greater elegance is expressed in the emphasis placed on luxurious accessories, on flattering little dinner hats and elaborate evening headdress. Even more thrilling than the elegant materials and the vainglorious accessories that distinguish this seasons formal modes are the various period influences that mark their styling. Designers seeking inspiration for the costume creations are, delving into fashion lore of centuries past as they never delved before. The picturesque Tyrolean and Dalmatian mood is expressed in terffis of colorful embroidery which is generously used at present and in other intriguing details that are adding greatly to the gaiety of current fashions. Boleros are flourishing in the mode both day and night and in the evening the latest is to throw a lace mantilla over head and shoulders and wear a red, red rose for corsage fashion has gone as picturesquely Spanish as that!
