Prlpcess Elizabeth is anxious to hall: a Scottish home of lier own and it Is not unnatural that her choice should have fallen on Birk- hall. Since she was a little girl and stayed there each summer with her parents and her sister. while her grandparents were at Balmoral Castle, the Princess has loved Blrkhall, and it is now es- pecially dear to her because of its association with her honey- moon. ‘Ilhe house is not large, but i-t is cosy anll attractive and has charming gardens. Within com- fortable walldnig distance of Bu- moral it belong-s to the King. who will probably . mange for its permanent use by Princes iza- beth after the present Scottish season.
