     Queen Elizabeth II! has prov- 
     
     ed herself to be a modern mon- 
     
     arch with a respect for tradi- 
     
     tion but not for outdated cus- 
     
     toms. In the process of modern- 
     
     ising the monarchy she has pre-

     In other respects court life 
     
     as been greatly simplified. 
     
     while the Queen and her h

     life of the Royal Family as far 
     
     as possible into line with that of 
     
     other households in Britain.

     guests fish was customary in 
     
     the past. 
     
    

    
     From time to time they give 
     
     informal parties to which they 
     
     invite members of national or- 
     
     ganizations (the guests usually 
     
     being chosen by ballot of the 
     
     membership) or delegates to 
     
     conferences meeting in London. 
     
     They regularly give small semi- 
     
     official lunch and dinner par- 
     
     ties, choosing as their guests 
     
     those who have made some sig- 
     
     nificant contribution to national 
     
     or Commonwealth life but who 
     
     hold no appointment which 
     
     would qualify them for inclus-

     felt that a ceremony which pro- 
     
     vided no opportunity for her to 
     
     exchange a single word with 
     
     those presented to her, and for 
     
     which only a limited number of 
     
     people was eligible. was out of 
     
     keeping with the times. The end 
     
     of presentation parties has been 
     
     followed by an increase in the 
     
     number of more democratic and 
     
     leg formal receptions at which 
     
     Commonwealth visitors are as 
     
     ually much in evidence. 
     
    

    
     LONG WORKING DAY 
     
    

    
     The Queen has a long working 
     
     day which begins early and of- 
     
     ten continues until late at night. 
     
     She has inherited all her fath- 
     
     er’s love of thoroughness in ev- 
     
     erything which she does. The 
     
     reading and signing of State pa- 
     
     pers forms an important part 
     
     of her constitutional duties and 
     
     keeps hen occupied at her desk 
     
     for many hours a day. 
     
    

    
     Throughout most of the year 
     
     she Is in residence at Bucking- 
     
     ham Palace. T‘ie latter oart of 
     
     the morning is usually allocated

     Second World War in seclusion 
     
     at Windsor Castle. Some thought 
     
     they ‘1on be evacuated to
