Fairy Tale City
Waits For A Prince
OPENHAGEN, the fairy-tale city where Hans Andersen wove romance round the narrow streets and twisted aptres, is in a state of happy excitement over the news that Denmark's Crown Princess Ingrid is expecting her first baby. -It is four years since the only daughter of the Swedish Crown Prince married the heir to the Danish Throne, so the nation's joy will be shared by Sweden. England, too, has a share in the event, for Princess Ingrid's mother was born here, and the princess always considers herself at least half- English.
Only the outbreak of war prevented her from paying her usual late summer visit to the Duke of Connaught, her grandfather.
There is a widespread hope that Princess Ingrid's baby will be a boy.
Much of the layette is being chosen in England under the expert supervision of Princess Ingrid's British relatives.
