LESSONS IN CHURCH

READ BY DUKE OF WINDSOR United Press Association—By Electric Telegraph—Copyright LONDON, December 25. The Duke of Windsor made his first public appearance since his abdication, when he read the lesson, second Luke, at the English Church at Vienna, to which he motored 30 miles, despite a bad snowstorm. He looked pale as he sat in the front row pew and listened unmoved to prayers for the Royal Family. He joined in singing “God Save the King.” The Duke of Windsor lunched at the British Embassy, where the news of the birth of the Princess was enthusiastically toasted.
