By ELIZABETH TOOMEY United Press Correspondant New York :tf.R) Margar ec Truman presents her Most dignified side to the public and saves her gay moods for her friends. - She is a gadget-minded shop per anr1 a whimsical companion who likes to pull a gag on a friend now and then. Her life has been simpler and more relaxed since her father left the White House. Her sense of responsibility when she was the President's daughter is il lustrated by a recent conversa tion with a s e v e n-year-6ld daughter of a friend. "What is the difference be tween you and Queen Elizabeth" asked the seven-year-old, who extravagantly admires both fa mous figures. The difference," Margaret re plied promptly, "is that my job is over and she will have hers the rest of her life." She never has been seriously interested in any of the men she knew before, although she dated often. Her male escorts regarded her as a gay companion who al ways entered enthusiastically into the mood of the evening. "She's a heck of a lot of fun," one of her escorts remarked, '.'whether you take her to a black tie affair or to a picnic." She has a reputation for being punctual, both for dates and for business appointments, and doesn't like to be kept waiting Margaret has had as many people curious about her private life never submitted to at-home pictures or "a-day-in-the-life-of- Margaret - Truman" photogra phers. She simply thinks her apartment is for her friends and her family not for the public. She is sure of herself in all kinds of situations, yet fits com fortable into family evening 8t home. She'll kick off her shoes in a friend's living room and sit down on the floor to read to the children. Gift shopping for someone with Margaret's income can be o f . loop kmt - - . -. .

They come with dark and regular seams in spring fashion shades. PAIR sizes midge, norm, long impossible. Yet her friends have no particular prob lems. They just go shopping for new " gadgets the wilder the better. When her hostess put too much tabasco sauce in the food at dinner one night, Margaret sent her a sequined oil can the next day with a card suggesting it be ' used for the hot pepper sauce. When she was sick in bed with a cold, her favorite gift was an elaborately decorated ice bag with a pink elephant stopper. Both prettier and wittier in person than her pictures and public appearances indicate, Margaret long ago developed a thick skin, to remarks strangers made about her. She photo graphs much better than she used to because she has learned to make up properly and dress becomingly for the camera. "I love clothes, but I don't like to shop for them," she said recently. The suit she wore when she met the press to tell her' engagement was made for her in Italy more than a year ago. She almost never wears slacks or shorts, and refuses to learn how to swim. She'd rather curl up. with a good book than do something athletic. Unlike most girls who will take part in athletics just be cause everybody else Margaret just smiles and refuses. She is a young woman who knows her own mind. Republican Women To Hear Candidate Phillip S. Hitchcock will be guest speaker for the March meeting of Jackson County Re publican Women.
