even repression.But the shy Duke of York pre-jferred the life of a country gentleman to the limelight and was determined to shield his young daughter from the overpowering i shadow of the crown as much as possible.His wife, a Scottish commoner named Lady .Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon, dreaded the bleak rigidity of royalty\u2019s life, too.So there was nothing austere or ; primitive about the princess\u2019 early | upbringing.\u201cIn the days of my childhood,\u201d she remarked years later, \u201cthe sun seemed always to be shining.\u201d She invented a nickname for herself as soon as she could talk.Elizabeth was too much of tongue-twister.The best she could do was \u201cLilibet\u201d\u2014and \u201cLilibet\u201d she re- loved animals, especially horses.She learned to ride at the age of three and was given her own Shetland pony on her fourth birthday.A daily chore was sprucing up, with furniture polish, a dozen wooden horses stabled in the nursery.Kng George V in his declining years looked forward eagerly to the Buckingham Palace visits of his lively granddaughter, who liked to tease him.She shouted with laughter when he pretented to be angry as she ruffled his hair or stole food from his plate for her Welsh corgi dogs.She would sit wide-eyed on his knee while the King spun yarns about the war-away places he.had visited and the strange customs he had seen.This was the introductory course in her education.Like any healthy youngsters, the sisters enjoyed a good pillow fight.The trouble was that their regal AT CORONATION \u2014 Lady Rosemary Spencer-Churchill, 23.was one of six girls chosen to carry the Queen's 20-yard train in the Coronation.Pictured at a meet-ins of the Heythrop Hunt at her parent\u2019s home, Blenheim Palace, Lady Rosemary is daughter of the Duke and Duchess of Marlborough.She also is the cousin of Prime Minister Churchill and the sister of the Marquis of Blandford, one-time beau of Princess Margaret (CP Photo) -v , V : ^ - V*\" FRASER\u2019S DEPARTMENT STORE LTD 241 King West 4- Tel.3-2565 GOOD QUEEN BESS \u2014 The first Queen Elizabeth reigned in England from 1558 to 1603.She succeeded another woman on the throne, Queen Mary I.\t(CP from U.K.Information) Long Live Our Beautiful Queen !
