LONDON, March 16.-The first pub
lie function connected with the social
pageantry of the British court took
PLACE when King George held levee
at st. James Palace. Two days
later an investiture was held at Buck
ingham Palace. and on Friday even
ing the diplomatic and official court
brought the representatives of the va
rious foreign powers to the steps of
the throne.
There was marked cordially in the
smile with which Queen Mary greeted
Mrs. Whitelaw Reid, an indication Of
the warm feelings of regard the first
lady in the land feels, not only for the
Embassadress, but for the American
people. Those who noticed this silent
but felicitous greeting also interpret
ed it as an expression of satisfaction
at the royal welcome extended to the
Duke of Connaught when he visited
New York.
Larger crowds than usual assembled
to watch fortunes favoriteo assem-
bling for the daylight Ievee and the
evening court. The prettiest scenic eff
fects, from the onlooker's viewpoint,
are obtained at night, when semi
darkness aids the illusion that they
are looking at jewellers in a grand
world remote from humdrum affairs
Londoners, hemmed in by drab
streets, pine for color and variety, and
patiently wait outside the gates Of
Buckingham Palace just to catch a
glimpse of the courtiers passing on
ward to the royal presence.
