For her in- jterview Princess Juliana was stand- !ing by the window of the green- | walled living room, looking up the istreet for her two older children— Princess Beatrix and Princess Irene {—who would scamper in from school any minute. | She turned and her smile was |warm and friendly. When you ishake hands with the heiress to the| | Netherlands throne, you realize she| {1s shorter than you expected, and prettier. She is a golden-brown person. Her hair is brown with gold- en lights. Her skin has a golden {tone, even if she does look a bit tired, with a month-old baby to care for. | Princess Juliana’s suit was brown | and very plain.

Was she well? | “Oh, "splendid,” said her mother jand her enthusiasm was simple and direct. She said she looks after the baby herself, pretty much, but that it hasn't been a hard job. “She is a good one” sa'id the mother, and her cornflower-blue feves sparkled. “She’s going to be| Jjust like the others; the same fair hair and the same blue eyes.” |~ Obviously Princess Juliana thinks | Beatrix and Irene are nice daugh- ters and another like them would be welcome. L “Who are they like? I can't say. Some say Irene is like Prince Bern- hard, her father. Some say Trix is like me. We can't tell. They just look themselves to us.” As she talked she fingered a tiny pin on the pocket of her suit. It was a snow white marguerite, or daisy. “Yes, we named our baby after this flower,” she said. Margriet means Marguerite or daisy. We Netherlanders outside the Nether- lands love the daisy hecause it's the flower of May.
