queenly jewelry such as they
haven't seen since Queen

Nor will they be the crown
jewels of Denmark either.
Those repose in Rosenberg
Palace at Copenhagen which
is now a museum. Queen In
grid will bring some of her
own fabulous collection of
diamond coronets, snecklaces,

COUNT KNUTH-WINTER-
FELDT, now Danish Ambas-
sador to the United States,
was present at the first royal
party for the Crown Prince
and the new Crown Princess
that year. And it will be he
and his wife who will receive
them in Washington next fall
when their majesties dedicate
their new embassy in Amer
lea.
Now in the process of con-
Struction, the embassy at the
top of Whitehaven street is
due to be finished in June.
Countess Knuth-W interfeldt
left for Europe this past week
to visit her family in Switzer-
land and then go to Denmark
to discuss the interior decor
ating needs.
It will be furnished with
fine modern Danish furniture.
which Senator Mike Mon
roney termed at a dinner at
the embassy the other night.
"the most beautiful modern
furniture made" His family
was once in the furniture
business, he explained, so he
was familiar with the sub
ject.
The interiors will be done
by Denmark's most noted de-
signer Finn Juhl, and the.
architecture Is in the hands
of Wilhelm Lauritzen.
THE ROYAL VISITORS
will be pleased with the white
marble and black slate
modern residence with ad-
joining chancery. but not
half so pleased as Wash
ington party-goers.
The new ambassadorial
home will offer greater ease
of party circulation than any
other embassy in town. There
will be a 90-foot terrace over
looking Dumbarton Oaks.
Opening of the terrace will
be a dining room that seats
26 at one table (42 at small
tables, a drawing room, and
a big ballroom with a stage at
one end for an orchestra, con-
cert artists, etc. The wall in
back Of the stage win be so
treated as to become a silver
screen for movies. There
will also be a big library of
the ballroom and every single
one Of these connecting rooms
will open into the entrance

hall. Hence there won't be q
bottleneck in the house.
1t will not be the royal
pairs first visit to the United
States, or their first meeting
with President Eisenhower.
They came here in 1899,
eight years before Frederick
became King. And they met
Gen. Eisenhower when he
went to Denmark from Paris
where he was commander Of
SHAPE.
But it will be their first
encounter with the extensive
protection we throw around
our state visitors. Back in
their own country Frederick
and Ingrid are used to going
shopping, bicycling or stroll
ing along the street together
or separately without a
guard or aide in sight. AL
though accustomed to cere-
mony and elegance, they are
completely natural and in
formal with a gay sense Of
humor They can walk
about with all that freedom
because their people are so
happy to have them.
NONE OF THEIR DAUGH-
TIERS incidentally, will come
with them. Twenty-year-old
Princess Margrethe, heir to
the throne. will take over her
fathers duties while he is
here. She's had a thorough
training, including a course
in foreign policy and the
North Atlantic Treaty Or
ganization from none other
than Axel Scrip, the attrac-
tive bachelor who's now
counselor at the embassy.
When Swiss-born Coun-
tess Knuth-Winterfeldt pro-
duced a picture after dinner
of her chalet in Grindelwald,
Switzerland, Mary Ellen
Monroney was so intrigued
she asked If she and the Sem
ator could rent 1t for part Of
summer after next. Trudy

on himself, but he also had
the quickest mind he had
ever run into, said the re-
porter.
AS an example he re-
counted q story the Senator
tells on himself about the
time he was making q speech
and had been talking for q
long while when a note was
passed up to him from some
one in the audience. The
Senator read the note,
smiled broadly, and immedi-
ately told his listeners that
he had just been notified
that Ito be immortal it Is
not necessary to be eternal"
The audiences response to
this joke at his own expense
was so wonderfully enthusi-
astic, he continued to talk
for another 20 minutes, ex-
planned the Senator.
When he had finished the
story. the reporter pondered
o minute and then said,
WAS that what the note
really said?"
"As a matter Of fact, no."
said Hubert. What 1t really
said was that I had forgot

clan who deserved to be mem
toned so ! worked him into

appeared delighted with the
idea.
Senator Monroney, by the
way, thinks Washington is in
need Of a new type Of cock
tail party invitation - one
that will differentiate be-
tween a stand-up noisy crush
and a relaxed sitdown affair.
:. Whereas a Woodworking
man would do anything to
avoid the former, he posi-
lively delights in the latter.
For the small converse
tional gathering, he asks,
Couldn't Washington revert
to former times and use the
word tea on their invita-
tions?"
Sounds good to me, what
do you think?

Phone Expansion
Nears Completion
Project Totals $324 900 For
Building Addition And
Circuit Facilities

Another expansion project for
the Oakland office of the c. and
p. Telephone system is about
ready to be termed completed.
This includes increasing the size
of the building to about twice its
former size, and the addition of
numerous toll line and local cir
cult facilities. Cost of the improve
ment program has totalcd S324,000,
with an additional expenditure of
about $1,000 yet to come by the
end of this fall
Information about the improve
ments was received from Clarence
Stem, local manager for the tele-
phone company. Mr. Stem said that
the central office addition was
constructed at cost of $4,000,
with the cost of toll cable place
ment $4,000, and the central Of
flee equipment S156O0O. Additional
local equipment this fall will cost
$4,000, and a repeater hut for
Backbone Mt, $1,000.
Although this is the first enlarge
ment of the central office, located
on Oak street, Oakland, there have
been three equipment additions
since the original structure con-
structed in 1852 At that time, Mr..
Stem said there were some 1,200
local circuits, compared to about
$3.50 at the present time.
Now available are additional toll
circuits to Baltimore, Clarksburg,
Pittsburgh, Piedmont, Kcyscr,
Cumberland and other points
which greatly increases the capa-
city of the overall trunk lines.
Stem said some of the increases
in local circuits was due to sum-
mer activity around Deep Creek
Lake. Over 400 telephones are in
use in the lake area during the
summer and many summer resi-
dents keep their telephones all
year.
Construction of the addition to
the central office was started last
August with completion of the eX-
terror occurring in January. There
are still several weeks of work to
the interior before it viii be COM
pleted, he said.

State Forests Bring
S122,S38 to State

The state forests of Maryland
brought total revenue to the
state in the fiscal year ending June
30, 1859, of S122,83873, according to
a report by Assistant State For
ester, William H. johnson.
Three state forests in this county
and one in Allegany county to-
gether brought in nearly two
thirds of that total, or S78,310.
Income from the Savage river
state forest amounted to S33,824,
of which S25,007 came from timber.
Potomac State forest listed income
of S22,752, with timber cutting
bringing in S5,198.
Swallow Falls state forest had
an income of S15,68S, but only 1884
was from timber. Green Ridge in
Allegany county had an income of
81 $50, all but 1921 coming from
timber.
johnson said that Maryland's
forests have a number of other
values besides the actual dollars
and cents income from timber re-
moved from the forests. Among
these are coal leases, recreational
charges, rental of cabins, parking
fees, etc.
State forests also provide some
of the best hunting grounds in
the area. The proximity to state
forests was a factor in the decision
of the Harco Lumber company to
locate its new industry here.
The annual report covered other
activities. Boys from the forestry
camps planted 24,00O trees on two
tracts in that period. They cut
hardwoods from 451 acres of pine
plantation on Il tracts. They i'm
proved four and one-half miles OF
roads by clearing brush, installing
10 water bars and one culvert and
they salvaged 10 truckloads of pole
wood for cabin firewood and pulp
wood.
The report also covers physical
improvements and recreation. II
is stressed that the state forests
particularly in the two western
counties, continue to increase in
popularity for picknicking and
| camping.

"Roomful of Roses
To Be 3rd Offering
At Summer Theatre

"A Roomful of Roses" a drama
of the heartaches of a teenage
daughter of a broken home, which
was warmly received when it was
produced in New York in 1885,
is being presented at the Garrett

by Jennifer Yell. Fred Burrell will
act the youngsters genial step

The plot of the play details the
thawing out of the junior miss

shunted off to stay with her mother
and step-father. She arrives in a
mood so resentful that She frostily
snubs every effort of well-meaning
people to give her warmth and al
lection.
The play pivots on the desperate
efforts of the mother and her
understanding second husband, to
reach out toward the daughter,

hostility. The puzzled and con-
fused elders manage to open the
youngsters heart only through her
contemporaries in their neighbor-
hood.
The story of the winning back
