KING LONDON (AP)--Princess Mar- garet is usually gay and sometime® puckish or even impish. Small ahd seemingly delicate as a flower, she likes fashion and fun. But her intimates have long known and the public long sensed that her character has a strong band of steel. Margaret has a reputation for usually getting her way--but op- to that is an obvious devo- tion to duty*and a respect for the traditions, dignity and honor of royalty. , When these clashed 'with her per- sonal wishes, they triumphed--and Margaret rejected the hand of Peter Townsend. RELIGIOUS DEPTH Beneath Margaret's outward gaiety is a serious, deeply religious young woman who at times has| been lonely. For a young girl of lively temperament, being a royai princess can be trying. Bound up with the role are traditions, re- strictions. - Yet she has enjoyed her part. close friend once suggested that she must sometimes long to be someone else. "I cannot imagine anything more wonderful than to be who I am," she answered with typical en- thusiasm. Growing up as the baby of the family, she was inclined to demand attention--and she got it. Her tal. ent for mimicry was difficult to suppress. Her father often was forced to smile at her antics even while lecturing her on proper man- ners. HAD GOOD TIMES Despite the rigors of the Second World War, the little princesses had some good times at Windsor. Margaret, even at 10 and 11, was never shy with boys. With Eliza- beth she looked forward to meeting| young Gurds officers stationed at the castle who were often invited to tea. The royal children were bound by wartime clothes rationing and Mar- garet, like other younger sisters, wore many of Elizabeth's hand-me- downs. At the end of the war, Margaret at 16 was outgrowing the gawky age. She served an ultimatum as the Royal Family prepared for a tour of South Africa: "I won't wear amy more of Lilibet's clothes." As a child she admired the stylish Duchess of Kent and often said, "One day I shall dress like Aunt Marina." Now they are friendly rivals in the fashion field. BEST-DRESSED WOMAN Only 5 feet 1 Margaret is rated one of the world's best dressed women, though there are strict Under Margaret's Impishness rules about what a royal princess may or may not wear. She must always be easy to see in a crowd, so she can seldom if ever wear black. Usually she must ch ~ THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE, Tuesday, November 1, 1955 May Canadian Press Staff Writer OTTAWA (CP) -- Federal econ- ists mow estimate Canada's pastel shades, Margaret got around| the ban on black by wearing black evening dresses under a bright sapphire blue coat, Her dash and gaiety caught the mood of Britons after the austere war years. The blue-eyed princess likes dancing and popular music. She" enjoys the company of theatrical personalities, whom she meets often at parties. Her penchant for night clubs-- though always in a carefully selected party of six or more-- disturbed her father at times. He was concerned about public re- action but was always tolerantly understandng of his younger daughter's zest. His death in 1952 brought a marked change in the young prin- cess, in both her life and outlook. of loneli that gross national product--value of goods and services produced-- Hise this year to a record $26,250, If realized, this would be $1, 000,000,000 higher than Finance Minister Harris' April forecast and $2,250,000,000 higher than actual production last year. Further, they forecast--and this likely will be touched on by Trade Minister Howe in his annual year- end statement next month--that the momefhtum of Canada's evo, make a further rise in that year.
