Fan mail for the Duke of Edin- bilrilh is growing so fast that an extra secretary has been engaged ‘to help handle it. The Duke. whose responsibilities have increased since the King's illness, devotes two or ‘three hours each day to reading his mail. Many contain friendly messages for himself, Princess Elizabeth and the infant Prince Charles. Some suggest new avenues of public service for the Royal cou- ple, with numerous requests for Th"?! 1° llibear at functions not normally honored by royalty. Typi- cal of these was an invitation to ‘the Duke to be present at the final of a darts‘ tournament in the pub- lic bar of an Essex Tavern. The Duke, though an ardent dart play- er in his naval days, was—perhaps reluctantly-impelled. to decline,

He also declined an invitation to act as judge at a Hertfordshire baby show, remarking in his official re- ply from Buckingham Palace that he did not feel "qualified" for the job. Like most members of the Royal family the Duke receives begging letters. which in most cases are politely refused. Where only brief replies are necessary. he scribbles them in pencil on each let- ter before handing it-back to ‘his secretaries. Longer replies are dic- lltcd.

Continuing yesterday's is t t e r. which hsd served to bring us nice glimpses of the sunny South. sister- to-me wrote of the Fair she and her husband had attended at Tampa: “We sat for three hours on the grand-stand watching a par- ade of bands and floats, delightful of course but somewhat bewilder- ing, as it continued to pass before us. . . . Last night—Sunday—-we went to the Gallllean service held here on the lake at Kissimmee, and l thought how greatly you would have enjoyed it.

o a _o "The Minister and choir were out in s launch. about five hundred yards from shore. On the top of the boat was a cross which was presently lighted electrically and the launch was allowed to drift slowly toward shore. As it float- ed nearer, the choir sang ‘Jesus Lover of my Soul‘ and ‘The Old Rugged Cross‘, and I can't tell you how solemn and touching it WRS. The speaker's topic was ‘Peace be Still‘ and the scene and setting seemed to exemplify perfectly the words-so calm and still and beau- tiful it was there. It yvas all so different to any rhurrh service I had ever before attended, and in its surroundings took one in mind back to New Testament times— you remember, where others listen- ed beside ‘still waters‘. I may say, the service lost nothing by this unique presentation, but instead it served to impress and enhance, if that could be, the message of the old, old story."

s And so with exceedingly pleasant interests, February has placed an- other of our weeks in memory-a week which has had too its mo- ments of concern and regret. One recalls now the names of those ill or suffering in hospitals, and the faces of those. gone forever from earthly scenes; whose voices one may not again hear. These are our regrets, in a world at once sad vmd lovely. Our WCQK\B\BI‘KBG away with St, Valentine's Day, an .n- . trigulng beginning for any week of days. Memories of bygone days came to mind to older folk. while to young folks. there would be miny an accelerated. though doubtless secretive heart-beat at the receipt of one of these esteemed missives, and for Jamie and grand-daughter, and all like small ones, it was a day of hearts and colorful words.

s s s Judy's letter came this week, but bearing as she said “no news." Its arrival incided with that of the first of the Spring and Summer Mail-order catalogues, truly won- derfui volumes to many a one, even to grand-daughter who finds much to interest her in the colorful and varied pages. But James comment- ed: "There'il be no dearth of read- lng matter now. for a day or two!" We recall now that one day brought a gentle fail of snow, damp, feath- ery flakes -that drifted quietly earth- wsrd- to richly adorn even the shyest twig, and that afternoon we left our mending neglected, our needle idle, while we admired a drift of gay sparrows. settle artis- tically amid the rsre Winter beauty of a rose-bush in th: border.

Out of the dampness. grand- daughter and Jeanie fashioned snowmen below my window, re- maining outdoors into the twilight —while flakes settled on grand- daughters bonnet, and entwined themselves in her escaping curls. There were those afternoons, too, as today, when the family forgath- ered st the barn at the threshing, not that our presence had been re- quested, but that the rite must not be rnissed,,so pleasant it is. And so another week, made up of this day and that, all filled by a Scrip- tural measure, is almost gone from us. Now considering these. O O
