For from being stilied functions, the Royal Palace banquets are as enjoyable as they are brilliant. The pleasure they give is largely due to the fact that they are thought out so perfectlybefoxvehaud, and that unexpected touches are llways pos- sible with the resources for enter- taining available at the royal resid- ence. Each party there is varied so far as arrangement and decorations are concerned to a surprising en- tent. Even the same rooms are not always used. The number of the State reception rooms enables the King and Queen to change the place in which they receive their guests, the rooms used for after- dinner conversation and the scene of the banquet itself. This is not invariably the State banqueting room. The collection of valuable china at the Palace is very great. The Queen, like other hostesses, likes different services used at her parties. Guests may dine off price- less Sevres or find the Garter china p aced in front of them, each piece

The Wallflower; which have always been one of the sights or the castie gardens were at their best by then. The darker shades of wnllflowers have always been most favored at Wimlsw and the plants have malde rapid progress during the last lew days. The recent sun- shine has brought out the early flowers in the gardens of Queen Mary's London residence, Marlbor- ough House. The daffodils will be in bloom any day now and the mow of croouses is magnificent. A mat deal of work has been put into the Marlborough House gar- dens during the past year. and when summer comes they will be as lovely as when Queen Alexandra lived there.

R 1e not generally known that Queen Mary is one of the mime movers of the scheme to make the period between April 30 and May ‘l c. “National Picture Week.” Her Majesty hes never favored the mo- dem tendency to banish pictures from the wall. There are now signs of revolt against this practice. The modem tenderlcy is to use _. turcs as part of a definite decoration scheme. Queen Mary has shown that she takes the plight of’ artists to heart by her frequent visits to

the galleries at which their works i

are shown. During National Picture Week her interest will again be evident. One of the schemes that appeals to her is that of s Print Academy. the first of its kind. It wil‘ be held in Bond street. London, and will show the cream of the world's art, demonstrating that even those who cannot afford orig- inals may have the best pictures in their homes by purchasing inexpen- sive reproductions.
