A Queen with an in- fectious smile and a King with a manly hear- ing came, saw and conquered. ’ , Of course, they had already won our alleg- iance and loyal devotion. But this was something different. Nothing like it had ever happened be- fore. They were visiting us in our own Island capital. And the inclement weather added just another human touch to the occasion, for Their Majesties, like ourselves, were powerless to avert it. They too had to‘face the elements and they did so with complete indifference to their own comfort and convenience. They succeeded in giving us the impression that if they were disappointed in the weather. it was for our sakes more than for their own. The gaily decorated streets and buildings might have looked brighter in sunshine; but it was the spirit behind these preparations for their visit that Their Majesties appreciated. No doubt of that, from their gracious and cordial re- sponse to the enthusiastic acclamations of our people! 1 iv. An Inspiration To Unity ' ‘Perhaps the most notable reaction to'the Rdyal visit on the part of Canadians, says Canada's Weekly, has been the wonderful sense of unity that has been suddenly awakened. In the presence of Their Majesties local jcalousies that have in the past been only too conspicuous have disap' peared, and there has been a strengthening of bonds between different groups in the Dominion which have hitherto regarded each other with suspicion. For example, nowhere was the amaz- ing reception given to the King and the Queen by the people of Quebec at the outset of their visit more appreciated than in the English- speaking Provinces. It is not too much to say that today Canada is a more united nation than it was a. month ago. Thanks to the unifying in- fluence of the Crown, the Canadian public are seeing eye to eye with each other in a manner that many could never have dreamed possible.l To people in other countries the Royal tour has brought home as never before the vastness of Canada‘ and the advanced stage of development which the Dominion has reached since Confeder- ation just over 70 years ago. At Winnipeg on Empire Day the King spoke of his journey as "a deeply moving experience.” At Victoria he described Canada as a "grand” country—with its Atlantic windows looking to Europe and its Pacific windows to Asia and the Far East. And- he said: “In the course of this journey I have seen the old settled parts of the Dominion, which have a long history behind them, and_I have seen the newer parts of which the first settle- ment is still within the memory of living man. When I remember that here I a.m as far from Ottawa as Ottawa is from London, I realise something of the vastness of‘Canada. When! saw the broad plains changed by pioneers .to,the use of man and the might of the mountain ranges through which they cut their roads, I be- gan to understand the qualities of the Canadian people.” In his Empire Day broadcast ‘ His Majesty proyided a striking illustration when he recalled that Winnipeg, from, which he was speaking, was no more than a fort and hamlet on’ the open prairie when Queen Victoria began to rule. Today this city of 215,000 inhabitants is is he well said, “a monument", to the faith and energy which have created and. upheld the world- wide Empire of our time.” The King's words and his visit will alike inspire the rising gener- ation of Canadians to make their country a still greater and still better land in which to live. . ‘The New Potato Bags 4. \ .4 already announced an important alteration ha been made in the standard size of bags in which potatoes are packed for sale. The 80 lb. and the 90 lb. bags which have been in extensive use on the wholesale market, particularly in‘ eastern Canada, are to be abolished after July 1. 1939, by an amendment to the regulations un- der the Fruit, Vegetable, and Honey Act, end the only legal weights after that date for pota- toes packed in cotton, jute, or mesh bags for sale are 100-lb. 75 1b., 50 lb., 25 1b., and 15 lb. The‘ weightsvfor potatoes pro-packaged in pper bngl are to 1b., and I5 lb. There are many advantages attached to the change. The new bag weights are computed in quarters of the hundredweight, and it will be easy to recognize the differences j in-weight‘ when the bags are on display.

The Guardian is in receipt of an interesting tourist edition of the Comox District:Frec Press, published at Courtenay, B.

According to the story of Mrs. Paul Chand- ler, walking in Hyde Park, saw a wisp of smoke rising from the straw hat of a girl walking in front of her. Mrs. Chandler snatched it off the girl's head as it burst into fladlpjs. It is said there was a glass ornament" on the hat which acted as a. burning glass.‘ The thermometer reg- ternoon. . or an 4 When Maude Elizabeth‘ Miller died a few weeks ago in London her-passing excited little interest. It was known that she owned a mys- terious factory in Eden Street, St. Pancras, which none might enter except by her signed order, that before her day her father ran the same factory, and that for the last thirty-one years shchhad entered its doors on every working day at precisely 8.30 A. M., arrayed in a dowdy rcbc of black. When her will was publishgd a few days ago, newspaper men hastened to solve the mystery of the factory and in doing so solv- ed her own. A woman of no fashion, yet she created fashions; 9. woman apparently of no im- portance, yet in twenty homes of London there were expressions of gratitude when her will was read. Her designs for women’: dresses, turned into paper patterns by her score of helpers, are said ‘to set the fashions in a million homes all over the English-speaking world. Her helpers were grateful because she had left a fortune of over $80,000 to be divided among them --some with life annuities and others with bequests ranging from $250 to $1,000. A reporter also solved another mystery. . It was that with the trude Sims," the most famous theatrical costum- er in London.
