an operation for duodenal ulcer, He never drinks anything stronger than a weak whisky and soda and his favorite nightcap is hot milk or cocoa--a habit he acquired in his navy days. The queen sips a glass of wine and smokes occasionally.
 Have old Friends In Their Majesties never have been what you would call society peo- ple. Now. of course, they do lots of must" entertaining, but, fol- lowing that old pattern as closely as they can, they set aside one or two nights week to have old friends to the palace for dinner and a private movie.
 Both enjoy good conversation, at which the Queen is especially adept. Both dance well, the King prefer ring a fox trot, the Queen a waltz.
 Elizabeth buys all-British clothes and is getting to be something of style setter even though her sis ter-ir r-law. Marina, the Duchess Of Kent, usually takes top honors with her French chic.
 George, however, is the tailors' despair. Tailors tried to build him up after brother Edward left, but gave it up as a bad job.
 The Queens wardrobe problem is complicated because she is rather short and plump That is one reason she favors loose, three quarter length coats usually trimmed with fur, and two piece suits.
 Helps Her Pick Hats
 She is fond of halo hats (which the King helps her choose) because they give her height. She wears high-heeled shoes for the same reason.
 Gray fox is her favorite fur, blue her favorite color and pearls her favorite jewels.
 The Queen uses rouge, lipstick and eyeshade lightly, and has a permanent wave in her long, dark hair. She uses a natural shade of nail polish and has never plucked her heavy eyebrows.
 Two Million, And Worth It"
 The King plays tennis and golf and shoots, often as the guest or host of J. P. Morgan. His Majesty also fishes, but probably his favor ite sport is horseback riding. The Queen is said obe as good at fishing as he and she goes hunt ing occasionally, but only as spec tator. Hers are the more lady-like recreations-playing the piano and harp and doing needle work.
 Both have the British passion for long walks, both enjoy reading. His taste runs to newspapers and thrillers; hers to newspapers, nov els and biographies.
 Ordinarily they arise at 7:30 work from to 5:30 or (the Queen using portable typewriter for her cor respondence) and retire at 10:30
 They get more than $20OO,000 a year-and in the opinion of the average Englishman earn every penny of it.

 Somebody else chimed in: "Tne streets are too narrow" |ta One young man was certain that the glacier was only four miles from town. He said he had reason for believing this. lg tOne Rotarian who had been in the Territory before was certain the Rotarians from the States had sronght along some of their own good weather.
