This Happy Island Home Provides Good Memories We recall of today a light wind in the leaves—-a June wind, perfumed with blossomings, which moved softyly-muted as was the birdsong in the orchard and other trees hereabout. In trees of old -plantings that down the years had seen and known long history of the place. Seen the family that was of old, James and his two .sisters born , to it and grow up, with we be- lieve the kindest of parents in a comfortable and happy Island home. Here today, and indeed we can fancy always where the older homes remain, shades of those former days walked. Not at all foriornly or as eerie ghosts of the past, but most happily to- gether again. The children with young hearts and blithe, content as were their parents to follow scenes of those now long-gone times. So we think those who had known much happiness moved in and about this home today while those who now shelter _here kept a quiet day. James‘ mother would be here, kind-hearted but reserved woman that she was, her house tidy, her work in order, to sit primly In a straighhbacked chair in the sittingroom entertaining with the ,' best of conversation some guest: the minister of the “old Kirk" at the corner perhaps come by on a pastoral visitation or infor- mally as a valued family friend; or the “visiting elders” calling on some mission of office most solemn; constrained to accept an invitation to “break bread” in this home no matter how pres- sing their itinerary might be. We saw them today and heard the studied words fall from the lips of those olden years. And he——James‘ father? He Would be present, having of course donned his second ‘best coat for the occasion, leavin-g the discussion of any points of doc. trine to the rest. His religion was not too much of dogma or creed but bespoke a Master who was augracious and kindly Being to a Not too deeply interested in the chatting indoors, though a devout churchman, he would with J a-mes his young shadow, presently make excuse to slip away from it and come to the stable he loved. . .to “give that (visiting) horse a bite of oats”, and-in the giving take stock of his good points and his blemishes; and whether or not detracting from -his virtues he showed “too much white in his eye”. And surely to “have a look at his teeth” just to learn thereby the tale of his years and catalogue in mind the steed. There are those who declare that in that fairer land to come, we shall live on, perfecting our dreams and lildn-gs our hopes of The f0I‘Iy-fifth anniversary of the York Point Women‘: Insti- earth. There then the farmer will have his acres, the horseman his stable, the student his books, the writer his pen, and all, ea.ch in his own fancy, find that perfect satisfaction he had dreamed. And the two sisters so differ- ent in makeup, so united in sis- terly affection, whost of them? The elder a student, forever lear- ning, absorbing when young any dropped “pearls of wisdom”, the younger more concerned as was Martha of old with the things of the home. We think we could hear little whispered chuckles as the two spread the table with a spotless cloth and set the supper there. Yes, there were companion able whisperings in this old home today, and tonight a wind sighs regretfully about the eaves. The parents went the way of all mortals many years ago. Last summer the elder dlaughter too went to the same “tar ben." And yesterday, when Junie walked new along the Sabbath quiet of Is- land farlnlands. the younger, in- valided for some time, found at last, .from here illness '1 sweet and peaceful release.

However, my h-uIs.band’s aunt, who is his only relative in the city (I have none) seems to try deliberately to start a confu- sion between us. On numerous occasions she has talked against my working in an office, with only my boss. Inci- dentally we do need the extra in- come that my employment brings. On other occasions she has let me know, in no uncertain terms, that their family business and problems do not include me.

I think he should discuss with her these insinuations and embar- rassing comments — as .I that my speaking up for myself, to aunt Ida, would only cause a bitter misunderstanding. We see her only once a week; but this is becoming too stren- uous for me. Were this problem Settled. my husband and I would I have a perfect marriage.

Dear V.-R.: If you were Koliged to cope with a cactus plant, or a lively porcupine, in your d:-Ii‘-ly routine, you pro to a bly would make an effort to learn how to deal in ya gingerly way with these prickly objects —— so as to keep personal discomfort to a mini- mum. Well, much the same common sense should apply to your en- counters with your aunt-In-law. Instead of construing her disa- greeable attitude as a personal affront, or a personal attack upon yourself, recognize it for what it i.s—namely, her habitual reaction to her own emotional convitions about people (or to her own “pri- vate logic,” as psychiatrists say.) to have some schooling in psy- chological awareness of human behavior (as practised by one- self and othens), is to recognize readily, after a time, that most people behave in a self-engrossed way,, for.the most part. That is to say, they go about “acting themselves," rather than adapt- ing their thoughts, speech and feelings to the realities of the im- mediate situation involving other fersons. .'0TH2lNG PERSONAL So with your Aunt Ida, prob- ably.

Ainsworth of St. John’s, Newfoundland, have been recent visitors to Montreal and were registered at The ‘Queen Elizabeth. The Hon. Mr. The Derby are two magical words that draw’ kings and can- adians alike. Here are some com- ments on The Derby by David Huw Jones. One evening in 1779 a group of England’s leading sportsmen dined at The Oaks, the Epsom Home of the twelfth Earl of Der- by. They met to discuss the suc- cess of a horse race they had planned and held earlier that year on Epsom Downs. The race had been called “The Oaks" after the -‘house in which the idea had been born, and it was revolutionary to the extent that it had been run by three-year-old fillies over a distance of one-and-a-half miles «flat. Up to then it had been the custom to hold races in four- mile heats. With dinner over, Sir Chanles Bunlbury — -a steward of the Joe- key Club and an acknowledged leader of tun! reflorms — had another idea to put to his col- leagues: a race for -three-year» old fillies and colts "to be run over one mile straight. . to start at the Parish of Banstead, half mile east of Tattenham Cor- ner, and to continue thence to the winning post.” All were in favour of the idea and the full conditions of the race were drawn up. But then came a problem: when should theycall it? One of the group declared that it should be named ‘after Sir dharles Bunbury. Another sug- gested Lord Derby. A coin was tossed and Sir Charles called “l1eads" and lost. “ ‘The Earl of Derby Stak s’ it shall be,” he said. “No," I-flied the Earl. “We will call it, si -ply, ‘The Derby.’ " Even though he lost the gamble of having the race named after him. Sir Charles Bunbury got some consolation in being the first man to win that Benjamin Disraeli later described as “The Blue Ribbon of the Turf.” With loclkey Sam Arnull in his colours, he saw his chestnut colt, Diam- ed, pass the post a clear-cut win- ner of the first Derby on May 4th, 1780. Neither Lord Derby nor Sir Charles Bunbury could have dreamed of the consequences of their efforts when the first Der- by was run before a handful of spectators on that Spring day in 17-80. It was the first step towards making Epsom the centre of the world’s greatest racing carnival. Today the Derby, which is on the first Wednesday in June, draws over half a million spec- tators. They come early, determ- Ined to make a proper day of the great occasion. The wide open spaces of Epsom Downs are soon filled with a colourful and char- actenful throng. Most of them have come from London. If you want to see the true Cockney at his richly exuberant best, there is no better spot than Epsom on Der- by Day. Here are the Pearly Kings and queens and their families; here are the gaudy ti-psters —— "I got- ta ’orse.’ ” — anxious to share the latest secrets from the sta- bles with any passer-by for a small consideration; here are the fortune- telling gypsies and their N’S INSTITUTE Imembers are shown happily seat-Ied around the banquet table. chanan and other members of , the family.

Derby Day Sweepstakes Run AnnuaII AI Epsom brightly-coloured caravans: here. too, is the “top-notch” of world society — kings, queens, princes and princesses —- who annually make the trip to Britain to see the Derby. ‘ All have one aim in common: to pick the winner. In the past 177 years there have been many exciting and sea- sational Derby Days and first place has often been gained by a rank outsider. Take the victory of Mr. Henry C-haplin’s Hermit in 1867. The story was circulated that Hermit had broken a blood vessel in the head on almost the very eve of the race. The result was that the horse started at the long odds of 66 to 1, took the lead just before the post and won his owner a fortune of near- David Atkinson, leading bari- tone in Carousel at the Brus World Fair. has an ancestry which includes the fine old Burke name of Prince Edward Island.

The unusual aspect of the D1811 is that only children under 11 years of age will be considered for the awards.

But if Mr. Chaplin made a for- tune with Hermit’s win, the Mar- quess of Hastings lost one. — £100,000 in fact. M’Lord I-Iastmgs never recovered from -this blow. He committed suicide the iIollow- ing year at the age of 26. The situation takes on added in- terest when it is learned that a few years earlier Lord H-astings had eloped with Mr. Cha-plin’s fi- ancee. With the psssing of the years. and the increasing interest and speculation of kings and common- ers alike, Epsom and the Derby have become well-(known words i»u'valmost every language of the world.
