FAMOUS WOIWIAN GUEST AT BANFF

non-hotelites in Banff, I came across a retiring. grey-haired woman. reminiscent of a “little old lady" in her mod- est ficlf-effacemeut. To her own embzrrassnd surprise. she flashed into the limelight of world fame last Christmas. She is Miss M. Louise l-Iaskins, whose lines be- ginning, “And I said to the man who stood at the Gate of the Year" were quoted by the King in clos- ing his broadcast message last Dec- ember.

Miss Haskins first wrote the now famous lines taken from s poem called "God Knows" In 1906. They appeared In 1908 In a small book call-ed "The Desert." ‘Faking tea in the cozv sitting-room of the Mountain School in Banff, where she was the guest of her sister. Miss I-Iaskins told me how unbe- known to herself, the poem had lived a flourishing little life of its own for all the Intercedlng years. A singer. who came from Bristol, recited the words, long ago, from the platform. 'I‘hey appealed so much to the local doctor that he copied them down. Years later he died and the verses. in his hand- writing. were found in his desk. Then his daughter had them print- ed on a Christmas card sud sent to her friends.

when the present war broke out, one of the recipients of this Christ- mas card dug It out and sent It to several London dailies. The Times

Among other

priate for a nation setting out Into the darkness of total war. This reprint of the verses was appar- ently eeen by I-Iis Majesty, who made its words of faith and cour- age resound throughout the Chris- tian world.

DID NOT HEAR KING'S MESSAGE

Miss Haekins was givin a Christmas party to some ch11 n. She heard only half the King's message. But her sister. Mrs Greenham, was able to listen to the entire broadcast by her fire- side In Banff. ‘The quoted words seemed strangely familiar. Menn-
