MANY HAPPY RETURNS
PRINCESS ELIZABETH CELEBRATES PARTY AT THE PALACE Reed. 12.45 p.m. LONDON, Monday. The police were unable to control the enthusiastic crowds outside Windsor Castle, when Princess Elizabeth celebrating her fourth birthday, appeared in the quadrangle. The Princess waved acknowledgment, and as the cheering crowds
surged forward the police were obliged to close the gates. The Princess’s day was full of thrills, which commenced with a Joyous untying of presents from friends all over the world, including an African gift from tne Prince of Wales. The Princess visited the Royal mews and patted a Shetland pony, which was King George’s gift. Members of the Royal family, delighted, looked on while the Princess was given a ride. Finally, a birthday party was held, at which many youngsters, and also the King and Queen, each sampled a cake which was baked in the Royal kitchens, and on which were four pink candles and the Princess’s name in icing.
