began when Armstrong
Jones took an official picture
of the princess on her Goth
birthday in August - even
though some critics said it
was badly composed.
The princess herself had
learned to ignore the gossip.
Once, while her sister was
being groomed for the queen
ship, Margaret remarked:
THE papers will turn Lili-
bet into the dull one, so they

Margaret RoSe-affection-

Armstrong Jones appears
to be emotionally well suited
to the fun-loving Margaret.
At least they have quite a
bit in common.
The princess always has
been a theater buff. Her
photographer f1ance has an
exclusive clientele that in
cludes many theatrical CO
lebrities.
Margaret always has been
clothes conscious and DEM
onstrated a fair for style.
Her name regularly appears
on the best dressed lists.
Armstrong-JoneS has a
creative interest in high
fashion, and like Margaret,
is not afraid to speak his
mind on the subject.
He tried his hand at dress
design in ski clothes recent
ly, saying his fellow Eng
lishmen always look like
they were wearing borrowed
clothes at a winter sports
event.
Who will be the boss in
the household is anyone's
guess, but Margaret is not
adverse to having the man
wear the pants in the family.

the void in her life with
many young friends who
shared her enjoyment for
dancing and theater parties.
They became known as
"Margaret's Set"
Margaret touched off talk
and sometimes controversy.
In l949 the Princess, then 10,
was photographed on holiday
in Italy in a one-piece bath
ing suit; seen smoking a
cigarette, rarely done by royal
ladies in public; and had an
audience with Pope Plus XII,
that annoyed some British
Professionals.
But the fact that Mar
garet was not the frivolous

in her romance with Group
Capt. Peter send,
equerry to the royal family
and II years older than the
Princess.
Shortly after Elizabeth'S
coronation, reports mush-
roomed that Margaret and
Capt. Townsend were in love.
The story was spiced by the
recollection of the royal up
roar 20 years before, when
the Duke Of Windsor re-
nounced his throne for
American divorce Wallis
Simpson.
FrOwnS on Divorce
Captain Townsend had
been divorced in 1852. But
under ancient law, Margaret
could not marry until she
was rs without the Queens
consent.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1960-03-01

And Elizabeth could hardly
give consent as nominal head
of the Church Of England,
which frowns on divorced
persons remarrying. Many
thought that when Margaret
reached her 25th birthday,
she would follow ner heart.
But duty came before love.
In a statement Margaret said
she knew she could contract
a civil marriage by renounc-
ing her rights Of succession
to the throne.
But" she added. mind

Strauss House
Non-Confornninq

autographed photo. It is a
small gold-framed oil paint
ing of Gems Robert E. Lee.
The front opens out and be-
hind, under glass, is one of
II original farewell messages
from the famed General to
his troops at Appomattox.
Written in blue ink on lined
notebook paper, it was
penned by Gen. Lees adju-
tant, but signed by the
General. Numerous books in
the living room library carry
personal messages to Admiral
Strauss from some of the
worlds greatest leaders.
across from the living
room is a sunny dining room
furnished with French Pro-
vlnclal table. Sideboard, cup
board and chairs. Covering
the chairs are needlepoint
seats in a gold shade done by
Mrs. Strauss. Colorful French
plates fill the open cabinet
and on top of the sideboard
is a beautiful pewter tea
service. Original oil paint
lngs on the walls were picked
UP by Mr.. and Mrs. Strauss
in their travels. There is a
fireplace here, and the colors
include pale green walls,
darker green carpeting and
gold draperies.
Just off the dining room is
an inclosed sun porch where
modern furnishings set a
different mood from the rest
OF the home. The solarium
looks out on the courtyard
which in the Strauss home is
a lawn and terrace sur
rounded by flowers, shrub
berry, and a stone wall
against a forest of trees. 1t
is completely private, shut
away from the rest Of the
tarm by the wings of the
house.
Upstairs in the farmhouse
are bedrooms for the Strau-
ses' son and daughter-in-law
and three grandchildren, all
with their own baths. Their
own master bedroom suite is
located in a downstairs wing,
just down the hall from an
exquisite but simple guest
bedroom and bath.
Not far from the living
room is Mr.. Strauss Office, a
fairly small room with large
iesk placed before a window
that faces the Blue Ridge
Mountains.
Honorary degrees by the
dozen are framed and hang
ing in his Office where
a table is piled high with
books on a variety of subjects
from technical volumes to
current fiction. Citations and
awards, crowded, but ar
ranged in neat fashion
cover another table. A corner
gun cabinet here holds nu-
merous rifles. but hunting on
the grounds is forbidden
without written permission of
Mr.. Strauss. Much of the
Aberdeen Angus farm, actu-
ally, is a game preserve with
signs everywhere posted to
that effect.
The Strausses spend a good
deal of time outdoors on their
estate, moving around with
the seasons on their terraces.
Fishing is one of his favorite
pasttimes and a 42-acre arti-
fetal lake stocked with perch
is a spot where the former
special assistant to President
Eisenhower often can be
found. Mrs. Strauss prefers
riding and frequently takes
out one of several saddle
horses kept on the farm.
Together, the couple enjoy
walking about the place they
have called home" for near
ly a quarter of a century.
