NEW YORK -The beautiful
blonde movie star will marry the
prince, ton of a thousand years of
princes, in the Romanesque Cath
ederal of Monaco.
Little girls will throw flowers,
there will be dawingjn the afreets,
and fireworks. The day of the
wedding will be a national holiday,
delegations of dignitaries will ar
rive. There will be affairs with
men in white tie and dress uni
forms and full medals, their ladies
In rich ball gowns, ablaze with
gems.
Fairy Tale Roma act
That's the fairy-tale romance,
a real-life reenacCment of every
little girl a dream of happiness,
The pretty blonde girl from Inde
pendence, Mo., will marry the
newspaperman from Zebulon, N.C.,
son of a druggist, ia the small
red brick Trinity Church of Inde
pendence where ber mother and
father were married and where
she sang in the choir. A reception
will follow at (he home of the
bride's parents.
This is the American teen-ager's
real-life marriage. This is the story
of a typical wedding, full of sim
plicity and warmth, even though
the bride is a president s daughter,
Both of these weddings will take
place next month and a nation,
sentimental and Incurably roman
tic. will linger and dream a bit
ever both of them.
On April 19, Grace Patricia
Kelly, 26, daughter of a self-made
millionaire Philadelphia contrac
tor, ex-model, ex-New, York actress
: and, she insists, ex-movie star,
will marry his serene highness
Prince Rainier III of Monaco. 32,
who possesses also 23 other titles
ranging from duke to seigneur.
Two days later Mary Margaret
Truman, 32, daughter of the 33rd
president of the United States, con
cert singer, television and radio
performer, will marry Clifton
Daniel, 43, New York newspaper
man and former foreign correspon
dent. Vivid Contrast
The four principals and the
trappings of the two romances
couldn't offer a more vivid con
trast. From their original meet
- lngs to wedding plans the two
stories illustrate colorfully the
number of miles between Independ
ence, Mo., and Monte Carlo to the
east and Hollywood to the west.
Starting at the beginning, com-
1are these two courses of true
ovt:
Grace Kelly, a, prime box office
property, was presented to his
serene highness last May when,
with a photographer, she was mak
ing publicity shots against the
backdoor of the 14th century pal
ace of the, Grimaldls. The next
time she saw him was In Decem
ber when he dropped in to call on
the Philadelphia Kellys. Less than
two weeks' later they announced
their engagement.
Met ia November
Margaret Truman met suave,
graying Cliff Daniels in early
November when they were dinner
,.' guests of mutual friends, the
George Backers, In New York.
Tbey dated around New York regu
larly for a couple of months,
Daniel proposed late in January,
was accepted, received the bless
ing of his prospective in-laws.
On March I he gave her a ring.
No one suspected a thing. Thfen
Daniel took his girl to Zebulon
to meet-his parents and rumors
started. They'd planned to make
the announcement on March 13,
but former President Harry S.
Truman hastily called a press con.
, ference a day early and read the
brief, formal traditional announce
ment. ' ,
There are other comparisons
Rainier, to seal his proposal In
Philadelphia, presented his bride-to
be with a handsome circlet of in
tertwined diamonds snd rubies,
which, thoughtfully, he had packed
along with him from Monaco.
Later ho replaced on the proper
finger of the left hand a magnifi
cent 12-carat solitaire roughly the
site and shape of a three cent
stamp. Educated guesses place the
ring's cost at around $20,000.
Clifton Daniel went ring-shopping
alone and presented his girl with
a handsome round solitaire of
something less than i carat. The
pretty, delicate ring cost,
diamond expert said, around 1,
000 an Important investment for
a salaried man.
Then there are the wedding
plans.
Miss Kelly will have six atten-
dants and four flower girls. The
bridesmaids have no idea what
their gowns will be like: They sent
their measurements to a Dallas
store commissioned to ship up the
costumes. Miss Kelly's gown is
being designed and made behind

"How green is our valley"
especially in the spring of
the year when grass and tree,
ihrub and vine, soaked with
our winter rains, all reach
out with new vigor toward
blossoming. With blue sky
above the freshness of our
valley is true enchantment
We feel the same hit of spirit
in planning a bedroom for a
young couple who asked, "Do
we dare use blue and green?"
But of course! Especially
since in this bedroom the
south wall is ill window, open
ing to the patio with no shade
to temper the summer sun.
Let's do the walls and rug in
clear blue, use the beautiful
blue and green Schumaker
print which we show in our
studio at the floor to ceilini
windows and cover the bed
with a green tailored spread.
Now against this background
let's use a pink chaise lounge,
two large pink lamps, and for
spice three pillows on tht
bed in pink, blue and yes
yellow, like a ray of sunshine.
Let's begin with pink in the
adjoining windnwleas bath, us
ing it in the fixtures aa well
is the tile and painted walls.
A scored mirror oa one wall
will give reflected light and
dramatize the crystal fixture
and the blue and green towels
hung through the pretty brass
iron head loops. The towel
rings were part of a shipment
of beautiful brass pieces which
we unpacked a few days ago.
It's worth a visit to the studio
to see them as well as the
Italian imported stamp and
jewel boxes which just ar
rived. These, entirely hand
made, represent an old craft
One shows a picture of the
