There are tokens of rewards, prcleitnents, prQmo. tions and favors in all realms of as- sociation and endeavors, with much Joy and celebration to highlight these symbols of performance.

It is a time to reach for such emoluments and recognitions, to be accompanied by romance, adven- ture and also spiritual satisfactions.

When Princess Elizabeth end Lieut. Philip Mountbatten ere mar- ried on Nov. 70, she will promise to "obey" him, no matter what sticklers for formality say about e future queen obeying s. husband who can never be king.

O O O

Philip can never become more than Prince Consort, although Elizabeth will be Queen and as such the head of the Empire. There were some who thought that she could, under the circum- stances. never promise in the mar- riage ceremony tc obey him.

O I

She could essily hsve chosen to substitute "cherish" for "obey" under the revised msrrisge service of 19$. But she decided lrecently to use the older form: "Wilt thou obey him, end serve him, love. honor, end keep him. in sickness and in heelth." Elizabeth thereby mede it plsin egsln that she was merrying Philip f‘or.love.

Private McGee had spent a merry evening in the canteen. and on the following day he appeared on par- ade wearing a very dirty am‘.- dl-s- reputable uniform.

Tlhe colonel eyed him sterniy, and, after giving an order which formed the company into two lines facing each other, he called upon two N. C. Ofs to lead McGee slowly between the ranks so that all might see him ‘in his degraded state.

After being led to the end- of the lines and back. he was asked by the colonel: "Well, my man, what ihave yOll to say?"

Private McGee drew himself up stiffly and saluted as he replied: "The dirtiest regiment Yve iver in- spected, eorr."
