(Copyright. 1937. by United Press) LONDON, Dec. 10 (U. P.).—The Princess Elizabeth may be Britain's future queen, but she receives no pocket money. If she wants a sixpence for the church plate she must ask - her nurse. Otherwise all purchases are charged to the palace account. When she is 21, the Government will give her an allowance of $30,000—but that is 10 years away. Now she must observe as strict a school routine as any other little sixth grader. Just because she Jeatns her lessons at home, does not mean she can play hookey when she likes. : Only rarely -has her mother, the Queen, permitted some official func tion to interfere with the daily time table. It is arranged with great | care and takes in every minute of the day from the time Elizabeth rises at 7:30 a. m. until she goes to bed at 7:30 p. m. | ‘Life Guided by Women Although one day Elizabeth will have to rule a man’s world, her life at present is guided entirely by women. Five women, her mother, Queen Elizabeth; her grandmother, Queen Mary; Lady Helen Gibbs; her nurse, “Arla” Knight and her governess, Miss Joan Crawford, have helped mold her life. Lady Helen, who is lady in waiting to the Queen also is unofficial lady-in-waiting to Princess Elizabeth and her sister, Margaret, when

dressing table set which was the gift of Queen Mary. This is one of Elizabeth’s most treasured possessions. - Another adjoining room serves as the school room. It is plainly fur-
a teacher's desk, two small tables and chairs and a piano. The room is large enough for weekly dancing lessons and romps with friends. French probably is Elizabeth's best subject. She gets her ability for languages from her mother. She loves to air her knowlédge and usually addresses her parents in French.
Nurse Supervises Bath
A" typical day in the life of Elizabeth follows: 7:30 A. M.—Awakened promptly. Nurse supervises the bath but Elizabeth dresses herself. She is very tidy and extremely observant of dress. At one time she used to audibly comment if some visitor's button was undone or lace untied. Sometimes before breakfast, if the weather is fine, the Princesses accompany the King on a walk i the palace gardens with the 0gs. .
She eats meals similar to those of

her parents such as eggs, bacon, kidneys, fish, toast and marmalade. She drinks weak tea or coffee but eats no cereals. @
9:30 A. M.—The Princesses de scend to the breakfast room and greet their parents.. These days Elizabeth invariably airs her French by greeting her parents “bon jour, ma mere et pere.” This visit is one of the treats of the day since if they have been good the Princesses are allowed to take turns working the elevator. This is a novelty as the house at 145 Piccadilly had no elevator. 10 A. M.—The Princesses start their lessons. They have the usual scnool curriculum for their ages, but no homework. Elizabeth’s lessons include scripture, mythology, Latin, French, arithmetic, geometry, geography, literature and history.
Play With Dogs
11 A. M.—Margaret, who is 17, stops for the day- while Elizabeth continues study until 12:30 p. m, after which they play with their dolls and the dogs until luncheon. 1:15 P. M.—Luncheon in the nursery. Sometimes if their parents are having important guests for luncheon the children don party
frocks and join them for desert. In

this way Elizabeth already knows a! majority of British statesmen such as Stanley Baldwin, whom she now is careful to call “Lord Baldwin”; Premier Chamberlain and also a number of foreign royalty. : 2 to 4 P. M.—More lessons, such as .deportment, elocution, dancing and swimming. Swimming lessons are at the Swank Bath Club, where all of the royal family learned to swim. 4:15 P. M.—The Princesses join their parents and family visitors in the drawing room for tea. This is the time for relaxation when the never still Princesses jiggle around the room and prattle the adventures of the day. On one such occasion during periods of rehearsal for the coronation, the King and Queen tried on crowns and the Princesses their coronets. They paraded around the room until they collapsed in chairs with laughter. 5 P. M. to 7 P. M.—The Princesses spend their time with their mother and in playing with toys in the nursery. 7 P. M.—Dinner and then to bed. On special occasions such as Christmas time she is allowed to dine with j her parents at 8:50 p. m.
