OH!

Some one has said “Everybody talks about the weather but no- body ever does anything."

I suppose the reference is to the fact that we are all very Drone t0 complain about the type 0f weather we are having at the time. It's too hot, or too cold, we need rain or we wish it would clear 11D. etc., etc. ‘Ilie trouble really ls that the weather has to please too runny people of widely different interests. The farmer is glad of the much- needed rain for Wlitlilg crops, but the city dweller wants it bright and sunny for his coming week-end holiday or his golf game. Hence the difficulty.

The strange thing is that as 1on8 as the weather suits us and does not mar our purpose and pleasure, we do not, give it a thought. But let it once rain on the day 0! B" outing and we at once say, “It's always like this. Just when we want it fine it's sure to rain." The fact of the case is that we are really greatly impressed by our own dis- appointment.

Isn't it best to give the weather a break -- to look the weather fair- ly in the face, and recall the num- ber of times when things turned out just right. for the occasion, when it could not naive been batter? I be- lieve we will find that more times than not, the much-maligned ele- ments really contributed to the suc- ccess of the outing.

And another holiday not to be forgotten. Again, May 24th. We boys had got up early and by S11"- rise were well out in the country. hoping to spend the whole day nileld. But to our dismay at about 7 o'clock the sky clouded over. The daylight darkened and all looked like a terrific storm brewing. We sought shelter under a bridge and awaited the downpour. Our happy holiday was vanlshing in a thunderstorm which looked an though it would last all dnv. We even wondered how we should get home dry, Half an hnur passed but

___- MIR-S. WILLIAM MATHEWSON Mr. and Mn. Harry Crosby, corn- WRIGHT wall. Mr. and Mrs. Max Thompson and little daughter Marlene, Char. lotletown. crossed on the Prince Nova. Sunday morning enroute to New Glasgow. N. 5. to visit Miss Hilda Crosby.

An ideal life lived so as to be an inspiration, strength, and blessing to those whose lives were touched by hers was that of Mrs. William Mathewson Wright (nee Flora Isa- bel-Stewsrt) who passed to the tranquility of eternity on Saturday August- ﬂilrd. She lived in or near Charlottetown all of the seventy- six yrs. of her life being a daught- er of the late Peter Stewart and his wife Isabel Brock Macdonald, Marshfieid.

Talented, capable and kind her greatest pleasure was to deny her- self in order to give to those more needy than she; her charitable acts ,, being known only to the recipients

with friends '

and the Master whom she so faith- fully followed. r- ssessed of a sunny disposition she attracted a wealth of friends who found that her- bright and cheerful demeanor had the faculty of always adding some- thing to the pleasure of tier in- timates. She always looked for the good in others and it can truly be said of her that she never said a mean thing about anyone in her whole life, Her darkest shadow was the death of her youngest daughter, Lois, who passed away in the full bloom of her youth about twenty years ago and this sorrow seemed to numb her life henceforth. About ten years ago she took a "stroke" from the effects of which she never fully recovered, manifesting ex- traordinsry submissiveness under the trial of her unpaired health. The pages o: her life leave a pre- cious heritage in her family which will ever be treasured. Besides her heart-broken husband there are left to mourn their great loss: Mrs. C. M. Wells, Tompkins, Saskatche- wan; Frederick W. S. and John Cambridge. both of Calgary; Mrs. F. A Mi-icNelll of Summerside, who nursed her mother during her last illness, and Gordon T. of Charlot- tetown as well as four grand-child- ren; Lois and Stewart Wright of Calgary, Alta., and Stewart and Donald McNelll of summerslde. Many beautiful floral tributes bore testimony to the high esteem in which the late Mrs. Wright was held. Her funeral took place on Monday afternoon Canon Malone

MR. WINNIE J. MCKTNNON

There passed peacefully awa at his home in Melrose, P. m, {sand on August 3rd 1941. Winnie J. McKinnon at the age of 63 years.

In his illness, hia spiritual wel. fare was the constant attention of his pastor who administered to him the last rights of the l-{oly Catholic Church of which he was a devot- ed member.

Mr_ McKlnnon was the son of the late Mr. and Mrs Francis X. McKinnon of Melrose, in which union he shared as a member of an outstanding Catholic family of st, 500F863 parish. In this relation he was a brother of the late Rev, my Donald J. McKinnon pastor of 5t. Michaela Church, Liverrnore, Cali- fornia. who plk-GECGB/Ued hirn twenty-one years ago. Also Sr. Angela and Br. Xaxier of the Sisters of Providence, Washington D. C., who also pre-deceased him a few years ago.

As a pioneer member and officer of the Holy Name society of st. George's Parish his death marks the passing of a. staunch supporter 11g Clhristian principles and Catholic

family, he displayed and exercised the duties of s. Christian father. His staunch faith and fidelity to religious duties his kind and peace- ful disposition made him a friend of everyone and thus it is that hi: demise is so keenly felt by all who knew him.
