Mrs. Jessie Hume _of Boston is now visiting at her former home in Greek River with relatives Mr. Pied Robertson and family.

At this time of writing (June 24) the recent dry spell has been relieved by a glorious shower and growth in field. graded and grove bs QIIN! accelerated.

-'e|-jlm i Some very successful catches oi cod and some which may be des- cribed IA from fairly to poorly were made by those who try their luck with hook and lirie at the close oi the lobster fishing season.

A incurring party from the city, Mr. John McLean, Mrs. Bessie Graham, lidir. Merrill Graham, Mr. and Mm. Carl Anderson and child recently visited relatives and friends at Peters Road. and Mur- ray Harbor North.

Mr. Fraser, student. pastor in charge oi’ the Murray Harbor North and Peters Road Presbyter- ian congregations, is preaching some very forcible sermons that give food for thought. During the week Mr. Praser is making pastoral calls.

The grain crops in this vicinity look well and while the older hay fields appear light the new ones give good promise. We were par- ticularly pleased with the splendid showing of s field of mixed clover and timothy on the farm of Stew- art Broa, Greek River, which is pronounced by those who know to be second to none in the province.

'A pleasing improvement is no- ticeable in the cemetery at Peters Rnadwhere the work oi touching up the ornamental section, plant- ing of flower seeds and perennials has been can-ied out y the mana- ger Mr. Neil Van! e with a few helpers. Much work yet r_e- mains to be done and will be at-

-‘ ‘ to later on when the rank and iile_of our citizens return from their spring ‘ations.

m. Macdonald Johnston, Peters Rood, is now the proud owner cf_ a very fine bred foal by Lorinett. The mother was some time ago imported from the U. S. and was a fast performer on many race traclm there and is still 801118 strong. We wish Mr. Johnston con- branch oi industry deserves attention.

The-annual school meeting "of Peters itoad West was well at- tended. Mr. George Macdonaid, re- tiring trustee was succeeded by the election of Mr. T. Albert Hicken. A supplement of $80 was voted. Mr. M. A. Beaton who efficiently taught this school for the year is reported to be leaving. At the close oi the meeting a. resolution of sympathy was extended to the wife, family and relatives oi the late David Macdonald, Peters Road, whose sudden passing this spring is a great sorrow to the be-

- reaved iamilviand to the surround-

ing community. i

The fine dwelling house of Mr. Neil McCallum, Alliston, was total- ly destroyed by fire about noon on Thursday 23rd inst. The iii-e likely originated from a defect in the flue in the. upper part oilthe house and had made much head- way before it was known. 1dr.

I ought to have known all about this lovely Palace, as my brother Eddy-Lord Glenconner-had the honor of representing their Majes- ties for successive years here; and from childhood I was thrilled by the bloodstains oi Rizrio on the floor of the oldest part of the Pa- laoe-annualiy renewed in the in- terest of tourists.

That Rimio was Mary Queen oi Scots’ Italian private secretary, and was murdered byparnley. I knew; but as my education was sketchy in my youth I did not know that the oldest part oi this Palace was built in i525, and the modern part was built by Charles II., arid all the fine tapestries came from Hampton Court.

It is inthe beautiful Charles II. period oi the Palace that the Lord High Commissions represents hi5 Majesty the King annually for the General Assembly of the Church of Scotland.

Accepts Invitation

Ten, Downing Street was oi more personal interest to me than Edin- burgh when my brother was here, but as the reigning High Commis- ioner married my brother Frank's daughter Dinah, I was delighted to accept his invitation. and arrived at the Palace with Her Grace's sis- ter, the Duchess of Rutlandi, on the “’ ‘ evening.

I was welcomed by my lovely niece and Sir Iain Colquhoun in their private apartments, and told to wear my best dress, as there were 85 guests for dinner, and we were all to meet in the ‘Ihrone Bloom at 20 minutes to eight to witness the ancient cenemoriy oi the presentation oi the city keys by the Lord Provost.

Thanks to Ire Queen, the Duke of Atholl, and the Board of Works, the Palace is well lit and comfort- able; and while I was dressing in a large old-fashioned bedroom. with the walls hung with prints oi everymember of the Royal Pam- ily, I looked through my window at the glorious outline oi the Salis- bury Craigs towering above the Palace against an azure sky.

Punctuality with me is not a vir- tue, it is an obsession, but my bump oi locality is so lamentable, that I werit into every housemaidk closet, box room and bath room before I found the lift, and being uncertain which button to press, half the guests had assembled for dinner before I reached the throne room. Lord Lamington, Sir _Hugh Shaw-Stewart. and the palace ohailain. ssured ma that I was not late as Ishrank behind the ample skirts ,oi_a_ strange lady.

We all stood in single lirie round the vest and when the Lord High Commissioner and his lady were ushered in, the military band in the courtyard below played the National/Anthem. and the Lord Provost. with other scarlet robed officials. stood -in the centre of the room. __ _ ,

After aoeremonial address the Lord Provost delivered up the city keys, which Sir Iain received with Simple dignity. Afterwards Lady Coiquhoun walked round the room while the name oi every guest was

‘announced in a loud voice by the

Purse-Bearer, Captain Stevemon, as we curtsied to the ground. Bil- Iain took in the Duchess oi Rut- iand, the Moderator the Duchess of Athoil, and the Lord Provost sat next to Ladv Aberdeen. ‘Lord Aber- deen was on Her Grace's right, and I was seated between theEarl oi Cal-swath and 10rd Eiphiristone.

During last year's general elec- tion I motored from North Ber- wick to hear my friend Mr. Max- ton address his Glasgow constitu- ents. I have such a high opinion of him. that I am not always con- cerned with what he says upon politics, but, hearing he had a for- nudable opponent, I feared he might lose his seat. I sat in the au- dience listening to foolish remarks made by earnest people, and when Mr. Maxton arrived 1 noted the

glowing enthusiasm by which he was greeted. ' I "am an old hand at general

elections and learnt in Paisley that enthusiasm at public meetings is not always a liable guide to the decision at the polls; so, turning to my neighbor at the end oi the meeting, I asked him if the rival candidate would jeopardise Mr. Maxton's chances. To which he‘ re- plied: "She's a. fine speaker and a nice leddy, from what I'm told, but she won't beat our Jimmy —

On Tuesday morning a levee was held at the Palace before we at- tended a service in St. Giles Ca- thedral, which is the prelude to the opening of the General Assem- bly of the Church of Scotland.

Quaint Visitor

As no woman is allowed in the Throne Room I asked his Grace, whom I found smoking a cigarette after the ceremony, how the levee had gone off. He replied; “Among the names written on cards and officially announced to me, Cap- tain Btoveriscn read, in a loud. voice: ‘Mn-Saviour of the Em- pire.‘ As this, my dear Margot, was the very man we have all been looking for. I regretted I had not had more time to further our ac- quaintarice."

As we passed through the high iron gates on the way to the ser- vice a salute oi 2i guns fired from the castle was drowned by the cheering of a packed crowd extend- ing from the Palace to St. Gileifs. I have never yet heard more than two out of 10 words of a sermon in ariy cathedral, so I do not know what the minister preached about, but feeling rather drowsy in our sequestered pews I remembered the story of the minister who ob- served during his ‘sermon that one of his flock was asleep. He would have taken_ no notice of this, but the shores of the sleeper disturbed the congregation. leaning ovcr the pulpit, he said "Jocki. Thercll be no snoring in Hell!" At which Jbck-startled from his sllimbers -rose and said: "And no'for the lack of ministers."

I left the Lord High Commiss- ioner on Wednesday night. But be- fore I finish I would like to say; the new Moderator- Professor‘ Mackintosh-whose position in the Church of Scotland combines the functions of the Archbishop of Carlerbury and the Speaker of he Canterbury and the Speaker of the interesting man I met at Hoiyrood with the exception oi my host- Lord

High Commissioner.

This robin continued to come until the third or fourth or Novem- ber and on several occasions, he was accompanied by four and sometimes live-of his friends. Then there was the bluebird and graybird, who came from October 5th until No- vember 2nd_ They ate hay-seeds. bread crumbs and oatmeal I fed fifteen of those little birds during 1931.

After those birds had left us, the bluejays arid chickadees came look- ing for something to eat and they were riot long in finding out about the feeding station_ The jays ate raw corn, bread crumbs, boiled po- tato and sometimes boiled corn. The chickadees are very “cute," they love suet, bread crumbs, and oatmeal, and I placed milk in my feeding box especially for them, as they love warm mill! to drink while they are eating. What made me do it was because I saw a little chick- adee trying to eat bread crumbs which had been exposed to wind and cold alike. I at once saw that he had some difficulty in eating the bread, because it was very hard, so I thought up an idea, and while the little chickadee was trying to eat the bread I was preparing 50mg milk on the stove, then I procured a small tin can for a. drinking cup for the chickadee and took it to the

"feeding station.” On arriving the little chiokadee had gone from the "feed box," and he was chirping at me from a nearby tree, I left the milk and started to retrace my m! steps, but I had only gone a| short distance when the little fel-i low hopped from his perch to the‘ reed box again. In doing so, he ob- servedthis new object and curious to know what it might contain he lost no time‘ in making a complete

examination of the tin and its con- tents. Then he turned his little head on one side then the other

until at last it appeared that he made up his mind to take a. drink of this curious looking liquid for he hopped right over to the side of the tin and begun to drink. I am sure he must have liked it for he drank a great deal before he resumed his meal.

The chickadees got so tame that they would fly into the feed-box when I was approaching and sing chickadee, chickadee-dee-dee until I was quite near: then they would fly up into one oi the trees and watch me putting food into their box. After I'd gone they'd fly down and eat. I fed twenty chickadees last winter at. my feeding station. Sometimes I would place hay seeds

detest those three species of gre- garious birds.

I observed that the bluejays never ate all that their sppetitles required standing by the side of the box, but instead they persisted on taking the potato in small pitces from the box, and eating it in the trees.
