Delicate Role For Prince Philip
LONDON. !'eb. 1-(AP)-The Duke of Edinburgh is assuming a new and delicate role-that of consort to a Sovereign Queen.
The death of King George VI brought this change to the hand- some. 30-year-old Royal Naval of- fleet.
The Duke's Royal wife left with him last Thursday on a projected tour of Commonwealth nations as Princess Elizabeth. Now the tour is off and she is returning as Queen Elizabeth. She faces heavy responsibilities, but constitutional- ly her duty is clearly dz-fined.
That cannot be said for the oi)- iigatlons of the Duke. Princc Philip. Britain has nnt had a male consort to n Sovereign for 91 years. and in that time much has changed.
The last male consort was Prince Albert. German-born hus- hsnd of Queen Victoria. He died in 1861.
As Queen. Elizabeth has the privilege of granting her husband the actual title of Prince Consort Philip
One essential fact remains. Queen Elizabeth is the sovoreiizn. The Duke of Edinburgh is social- ly the first gentit-man of the Em- pire. But the Quccn ruins.
Nag only have times and usage changed. but the temperaments of Elizabeth and the Duke are far (ram those of Victoria and Albert.
The Queen has indicatrd sev- eral times that she retards her- self as the ylslhle and tanizlhlc symbol of the union of the Com- monwealth. She is a sort of liv-
ing constitution.
The Queen, her consort and their children are the first family of the Commonwealth. and it is ex- pected that they will regard it as their first duty to be an example
of all British families by prac- tising the virtues which Britain admires.
The Duke of Edinburgh is a rugged sailor type, a good mixer in any company and an enthus- iastic sportsman. He has opinions. and he has been known to express them with vigor.
Being without legal authority the Duke. it was said in Court circles. is in a better position to voice personal opinions than the Queen.
In some quarters it is expected that the vigorous Duke may take some advantage of his freer pos- ition tn support causes which op- peal to him. His campaign Y0? more playing fields is expected to mnunup. It is believed he will retain his lively interest in the promotion of sciences.
Bmai the price of being a consort-it is also believed that his days as an active sailor are over.

Island Odds And Ends
..-:
About the nearest thing to a cattle ranch in Prince Edward Is- land. is the five hundred acre farm of Mr. RD. Ma.cKlnnon at Mer- maid. just above Charlottetown on the south side of the Hlllsiboro River. Two or more years ago Mr. Macxlnnon erected one of the tin- est cattle barns in the Province. of the most modern design. It is an immense structure as barns go in this Province and its gleaming al- uminum root can be seen for miles. In ranching language Mr. Mac- Klnnon is now running two hun- dred and thirty-six head of beef

cattle and he hopes to increase this to more than three hundred head. in coming months. At present prices for steaks and roasts. this is a lot. of money to be running around on the hoof.
. . .
Roomy as it is. Mr. Ms.oKinnon's oversize barn could not house all of his herd, and many of them are sheltered in the many farm bulld- ings which dot his five hundred acres.
To obtain this block of land sev- eral connectimr farms were purch- ased slong with their I ”

There may be other farmers in the Province with bizger but this is doubtful. Mr. MacKin- non hopes to erect another large companion to the one al- ready built-perhaps this coming summer. This is farming on a lax-ire scale and it may indicate a trend in this Province. Perhaps Mr. MacKlnnon is a bit in ad- vance of his time. but with mod- ern farm machinery it. may be more economical or better paying to adopt. the big farm proposition.

Our local Govt-rnment. which is 9XDl0i'ing the possibilities of build- ing a causeway across East River. to supplant the Hillsboro Bridge. seems to like the idea very much. It. can be said. on reliable author- ity. that the engineers who havel tested the approaches to the pro- posed causeway, crossing on both sides of the river. are greatly on- couraged. The shore on each side has been found quite firm for a distance of twelve hundred feet.
