future years.

By ARTHUR NETTLETON» F. B. G. S.

Throughout the last two decades. the days immediately before and after each April 21st have brought great activity to the special post office inside Buckingham Palace. This year the postal staff will again be very busy.

Shoals of congratulatory mess- ages will be arriving from all over the world. and all them greetings will have to be acknowledged at once. They will come to the young lady who is Heiress w the British Throne, to mark her 20th birthday.

Public Figure

Princess Elizabeth's last birthday party under peacetime conditions ook place when she was only thirteen years old. and at that, time she was still “the Wee Princess" Princess who became "of age" two years ago (royal daughters attain- ng their majority at eighteen). she will be able to hold her first adult to many people. This week. as a birthday party of peace-time.

The last». few years have not only seen history in the making. haveJorought great changes in the

liie and activities oi Her Royal

Highness. War events largely over-

siderable. y The Princess has emerged from the long period of training for her

come a public figure in her own ritght. She has begun her civic ll e, and she has already success-

oi public engagements.

Her first official civic tour took

lace exactly o. year ago. Wi the and Queen she went to nth

round ilve factories, was guest at a civic luncheon and parades of Civil Defence workers. Rehearsals for this entry into public life included tours oi Bri-

tary camps with her parents. dur- ing the war. The unqualified suc- cess with which she has taken up this new phase oi her life was re- vealed when, shortl after her South Wales visit. e e was per- mitted to have a public programme oi her own.

During the last few months, the "new" Princess Elizabeth has ac- quitted herself so admirably in

the duties

University professor, and she is encouragcd to teach herself.

She has her own slttlrlg-roomln Buckingham Palace. and is able to make full use of the libraries lccth there and at Windsor Castle. She reads books in French as well as in English, and is interested in works on Art, antiques, and allied subjects.

In addition. she has to continue her studies oi constitutional history. and she ts expected to keep herself informed about national and inter- national events. Several newspap- ers. of different political tone, are put before her each morning for that. purpose.

She is frequently beside the King when he is attending to State docu- ments, and His Majesty makes a point of explaining any difficult or obscure details b0 her. In this way she is ctting valuable lessons in statccr t. For eighteen months she has been empowered to act as a Councillor of State. in the event oi the absence of the King. The Re- gency Act has been specially amend- ed for that purpose.

A recent innovation is the adopt- ion by the Princess of an idea - auguratcd by the King when he was Duke oi York. She has begun to pay informal visits to factories. Her aim is to learn more ut industrv and the'work of ordinary people. ‘

Wants a Car

The King believes that. the know-

ledge so gained will be 0f great value to Her Royal Highness in her future work. It will enlarge understanding of Britain's indust- rial resources and problems, and will facilitate the successful merg- ing of Statccroit an comnmoe. so in: as her royal duties are ulti- mately concerned.

Such being the case, it is interesting to learn that men have, at long last, taken their grievance to court and that the law hll ostmbliah- , ed the husband's right to his night out on the grounds that any man is entitled to spend one night a week away from his wife. This may be justice for the oppressed, and no doubt the decision will be hailed with joy and thanksgiving by men. but ii any husband thinks that it is going to make his wife speed him on his way to on evening out with the boys he is due ior a bitter disappointment. _

It isn't because they have‘ ce to love their husbands and their children, or because they have any philandering t ndencles. or because they want to do anything unbecoming a wife and mother. It is just because they want a breath oi freedom. It is because they want to go off by themselves for a little while and do what they want to d0 themselves, instead of what somebody else wants to do.
