.Historic Calendari From Hyndman. . & Co. Ltd.

The Guardian has-received a. very valuable calendar from lhllellsrs

frontlspiece of which is ‘I-I. M. S. Victory. the cut of which had to be specially ordered from England, through the courtesy of James Brown 8: Son. Publishers of Glas- sow. Scotland. for their special use.

The "Victory"is without question the most interesting vessel in ex- istence. not only because on her dec s Nelson fell in the hour of vlc ory, a victory which freed Bri- tain for ever from the menace of Napoleon's invasion, -but because Sh» represents the connecting link between the navy of sail of the past. which one was our heritage. and the navy of steam and steel of today which still proudly upholds ‘Britain's supremacy upon the high S985.

‘Large sums of money have been spent on the "Victory" in recent years to preserve her for future flenerationg ‘as a glorious symbol of Britain's naval supremacy, and s-he is the centre of attraction for all citizens of the Empire when visit- int: Portsmouth.

This picture is from the original oil painting by the famous artist McDowell. The ship is depicted in all her original colours, which are exceedingly spirited and beautiful.

‘it is of interest to note that the late F. W I-lyndman. It. iN_, the founder of the firm of Hyndman & Co, l.td., Charlottetown. I’. ‘E. ‘is- land. served on the old "Victory" in the year 1867.

iSome time ago the duke agree-d to give tlie Duvcens th‘is “portrait of a lady" for this price, ‘but the ‘German urt firm through which negotiations were conducted got an injunction against the deal on the ground that the price was too low. The court called numerous art experts, who agreed that half a million gold marks was plenty for a canvas 36 by 37 centimetres in size, and so the injunction was vac- ated,
