gamblers and their paraphernalia out

He will find il quite a job to get

The habit of taking a chance. like
the late Steve Brodie, is growing on

was raised for the restoration of the
choir and transept of the new church
at Delft. which contains the mausol-

longest reigning dynasties in the his
tory of the world and the famous mon
ument to the memory of William the
Silent. the great founder of the Dutch
republic, who was assassinated in
Delft in July, 1854.
The church. however. is not merely

ganized. Today the queen. the prime
consort, Henry. and Princess Juliana
made their solemn entry into The
Hague. but the official festivities are
to be held in Amsterdam where the

demonstrations, vocal concerts. rowing
matches, fireworks, etc. is rather vol
luminous as every association is anx-
ious to render homage to the beloved
queen.
Various diplomatic ENJOYS have been
received by the queen in extraordinary
audience to convey the go, ] wishes /
