years ago. Many of the guest.
were remembering the terrifically

And only a few had heard of the

She had just landed there after

Strawberries and Creom
The garden party was, less
elaborate than in former years
much less so than when the King
and Queen themselves were hosts
ten years ago. But it was in
keeping with the times-and the
refreshments included a generous
supply of luscious ripe Strawberries
with mounds Of whipped cream,
the traditional piece de resistance
Of British garden parties.
The Ambassador and his wife
remained In the receiving line till
the very end. and once in a while
