tall, gawky girl, not over good looking,
but this physical lack is compensated
for by a great sweetness of tempera-

Like her mother, she has been nick
named her royal Fhyness" and her in
eessant state Of embarrassment is one
OF the standing jokes OF the Brighton
friends OF the Duke Of Fife. Yesterday
while walking on the promenade with
her Skye terrier the dog rebeIIed
against its leash and broke away. The
poor princess flushed 20 the roots of
her hair al the publicity the incident
secured for her. She stood helpIessIy
by, her cheeks crimson and her hand
on her beating heart, while the dog
gambOled of.
Suddenly a soldierly looking man
darted out from the crowd OF prone
naders and secured the refractory dog.

o Her shyness" was so overcome th1t
she could not find words Of thanks and
graEping the dog cord, she literally ran
home.
II is expected she will come out next
year. although the duke is rather nerv-
GUS about her debut.
