When the Present Queen Was a Young Girl at School Londonâ€"A kindergarten school in which for a time. Queen Elizabeth and her brother. the Hon. David Bowes- Lycn, were pupils nearly 30 years ago is {now used as business premises. It is in Marlebone High street and the entrance was by the small door at the side of an art dealer’s shop. The school was in a room on the first floor. One who was a pupil at the school at the time has recalled how one day the headmistress brought in two small children to introduce them to the school. A chestnut-haired little girl of about nine years in a tussore dress. protect- ingly holding by the hand a small boy who looked slightly younger. “Here," the headmistress said. “are Elizabeth and David Bowes-Lyon." The two children soon beaamc ab- sorbed into the general life of the school. The proprietor of the shsp he~ low still remembers the little girl. who is new Queen. and her brother coming and going and racing off after school hours to play in Regent's Park. But the education of Elizabeth was in the main due to her mother. Lady Stra'thmore; Elizabeth and David, the two youngest of the family, were brought up very much together in their rarly years. Their favourite game was “dressing up." Their history lessons had stored their minds with memories of the past. Elizabeth’s games of “Let’s pretend" were usually about beautiful Scots- women. She would dress up in costumes be- longing to her ancestors of the time of James VI. later James I of England. and would call herself "Princess Eliza- beth" after the Queen Elizabeth of Bo- hemia, King James’ daughter.
