NATIONAL FLOWER SYMIBOLS

The orchid and the gardenia, the rose and the carnation, have been forced to bow to the wild flowers which grow by the road- side and in the woods and fields of Canada. Of these the Dominion has a vast variety, due to the many differences in her climatic con- ditions. and many of them have been selected by legislation as the flower-emblems of the different Provinces.

In 190i the Nova Scotia Govem- ment proclaimed the mayflower as its emblem, and Manitoba fol- lowed, in 1906 ly electing the wild crcucus as its representative flower. The children of the Pro- vince of Alberta, at the foothills of the Rocky Mountain range have chosen the wild rose, but this has not yet been accepted by statute. In the . industrial Province of Ontario the trlllium has been sug- gested 'as'its Provincial emblem. and in British Columbia, on the

Pacific Coast, the dog-tooth violet has been g e n e r - ally accepted although never

receiving official sanction. In the old Province of Quebec, which was first settled by the intrepid French explorer, resembling as it does the fleur-de-lis which is on the Provincial coat-of-anns.

.i.___.___<_- JAM-MAKING TIME

‘rhings do not look too good for us jam-shakers this season, for the long cold months have done their best to ruin the fruit, and that whichhas escaped the late frosts will most certainly be fairly dear to buy. still, hover mind, we are an optimistic lot, so we Just hope for the best.

Hero are a few really salient poinst for jam-makers to bear in mind if they want to re- ward their efforts. Never buy very unripe fruit, as it is always so hard that the sugar never pene- trates properly, and in conioqn- ence the fruit is light in weight when cooked and rises to the top of the jars, much to the bewilder- ment of the unwary jam-makers, who does not know the real reason.

On the other hand do not "buy over-ripe fruit, as this is frequently inclined to taste fermented, and also, it does not contain the same sznount. of pectin, as fruit which is at its prime, neithe too ripe nor too unripe. ,

Boiling is another pert of jam- rnaking where it is quits easy to make mistakes. Too slow . boiling results in the fem lasing "colour. while rapid boiling improves both colour and flavour.

The narrator of the story is a fic- titious character but the account of the mutiny is kept strictly to the facts on record in the British Admiralty.

"Men Against the Sea" is the amazing story of the experiences of Captain Bligh and the eighteen men whom the Bounty mutineer-g Wt adrift in an open boat. Through 3,600 miles of stormy seas dotted with islands inhabited only by sav- ageS. Captain Bligh, by means n; his uncanny skill as a navigator, his precise memory of the latitude and longitude o1 every known 1g. land in the Pacific, and by his un. Wllqllemble and ruthless will, brought them from the scene of the mutiny to 'I‘imor in the Dutch East Indies.

Charlottetown" has welcomed many visitors this summer, but none so prominent or more wel- come than the Vice Regal party who arrived by special train on Friday evening, July 26, to pey a farewell visit t0 our Province. ’

Lady Bessborough’; sweet smile, and wmderful personality, won the hearts of all. and everyone who had the honour of meeting her was in. deed sorry that her visit could not have be"! Prolonged.

Government House presented an unusually lovely appear-anon on Friday evening when the Lieuten- ant Governor and Mrs. DeBlcis gave a State Dinner in honour of their distinguished guests. Lady Bcssborough looked regal in n “we. 1111 sown or a beautiful shade of rose. Mrs. DeBlois. the charming hostess, was lovely in blue and sll. ver lame. During the dinneg- the sweet music of an orchestra float- ed throlilh the floril bcdeoked rooms. while later in the evening a delightful musical program was "n4"!!! by a number of Charlotte- towrrs well known artists-Mr. and Mrs. Raoul Raymond Mrs. Ken- neth Richards. Ml‘. Charles Earle, Miss Lillian Earle. Mr. Walter MacNutt, Mr. Harry Gomez and Miss Rena Wood.

On Saturday morning, as the Vice Regal party stepped from their private car, the Governor Geneml

Tngs. drove to the Provincial Building where, before entering, Their Excel- lencies inspected the Girl Guides and Boy Scouts. inside, and in the historic Confederation Chamber, Their Excellencies listened to ad- of welcome delivered by Premier MacMillan and Mayor Kennedy to which His Excellency

Their mcellencies held an informal reception at which a number of citizens were privileged to meet them.

His Excellency then addressed the Boy Scouts and Girl Guides brief- ly telling them to “Go forth, in- crease their umbers and spread the wonderful movement through- out Prince Edward island." ,

A drive to the Experimental Form where Lord Bessborough planted a tree, a. visit to an inter- esting Ilbx Ranch. was followed by a beautifully aprpinted luncheon at Government House.

At three o'clock the party, with the exception of Lord Duncannon. entrained for Quebec. leaving many new and admiring friends behind. The Lieutenant Governor and ltksDeBlois were delighted to have Lord Duncennon remain as their guest over the week-end. As every- one knows. this popular son of our Governor General is quite a noted amateur actor who has been heard with keen delight over the Canad- ian net-work on several occasions. After e. dinner party, given in his hon by Lieutenant Governor and Mrs. DeBlols on Tuesday evening. he graciously consented to give selections from Hamlet and other Shekesperian plays which, needless to say, were ‘thoroughly enjoyed by all the guests present. On Wednu- day morning His Honour and Mrs. DeBlois bade him a regretful fare- well as he left by ‘plane to join Lord and Lady Bessborough at old Quebec.
