PA= rWOTi - THURSDAY, :MY 7th, 1958 aurn .Currn Con fidential By Elsie Carruthers Lunney THE GOLDEN HOURS 0F SUMMER We came across a quotation from Henry James this week which seexiýs most appropriate ta the season and the weather.1 "Summer afternoon - summer afternoon; to me those have always been the two mosti beautiful words in the English language," he said. Well, we wouldn't go as far as that, but certainly the wprds '.summer afternoon" conjure up for us a pleasant picture of languorou s, sow-moving hours spent in golden sun or cooling shade; of sparkling waters and welcome breezes; of greait clumps of willows that follow pasture streams; of daisies and buttercups and the \vonderf.il smeil of freshly cut hay; of bronze gold fields of ripening grain, and ail the fresh fruits and vegetables of the garden. Yes, "ýsummer afternoon" brings beautiful pictures flash- ing across the mind's eye, but what about summer morning, and summer night? Just 's beautiful, perhaps more so. On a summer morning the worId seems born afresh. The dew stili clings to the rose and the grass, and the suni is not yet hot. And summer night. Well, poets have waxed lyrical over summer nights for centuries. One night last week, after ai hot, hot day, we were awakenl- ed by wind blowing and rat- tling some papers. We took a promenade through the house and went to the windows wherp the fresh summer wind was1 blowing in, laden with ail the perfumes distilled by the dew. The moonlight was almost as bright as day, but with a soft- er radiance. There was some- thing magical about the wind- 1 swept freshness of that sumn-, nmer night, and we were glad that we had been wakened to1 experience it. Sa, for ourselves, perhaps we wilI just say that "summer" is one of our loveliest words and seasons, though not our favorite because of its accom- panying heat. But remember- ing those long months of cold, we hardly have the face ta complain. HUNDREDTH BIRTHDAY We regret that we did not get ta Whitby for some of their Centennial celebrations, but we do think the officiaIs respons- ible did a splendid job judging by reports and the appearance Sia.fford Bros. Monumental Works Phone Whltby MOhawk 8-3552 318 Dundas St. E., Whitby FINE QUALITY MONUMENTS AND MARKERS Precise workmanship and careful attention to detail are your assurance when Vau choose from the wide selection of imported and domestic Gravýites and Marbles ini stock. of the town, and we offer hear- tiest congratulations. The main streets were de- corated with centennial pla- cards and flags, and the four corners presented a gala ap- pearance with flying pennants and a lighted birthday cake. The store keepers evidently co- operated whole-heartedly, for there were some splendid dis- Iplays of old photographs, spin- ning wheels, pioneer furniture, old dresses and clothing and other heirloom objects. A big, streamer across the street spelled out "We1cornc, Home", and we are sure that many native sons and daugh- ters must bave visited their old homnes during the week- long celebrations. Whitby is an old town, niuch older than its one hundred years of incorpor- ation, and in its homes and streets and harbor there is a great deal of pioneer history. Perhaps somewnere there-. w-_ a dispiay portraying the olci days of this weli known har- bor, but if so we missed it. We hope Bowmanville off j- diais are storing up a few plans and ideas for the hun- drcdth birthday of our town. People love these celebrations, with old-timne dress, parades, poring over phiotographs, mar- velling at early implemients anîd utensils. This is history brought I to life. We don't know where we're going in these days of rapid change, but we can look back on what and where we came from. While in Whitby we drove through the grounds of the On- tario Ladies' College because it is a building of almost a hun- dred years ago. The date, 1859, is over one of the doors, and it was built as a private resi- dence by Mr. Nelson Gilbert Reynolds, first Sheriff of On- tario County after its separa- tion fromn what was known as the Home District, in 1853. Mr. Reynolds called his house Tra- falgar Castle, and indeed At does bear resemblance to a castle. The owner was born in Cookstown, Ireland, in 1814, and dicd in Whitby in 1881.E The building xvas sold in 187.51 and became the Olntario La-1 dies' College. MORE BOWMANS Further re the name "Bow- manville", Dr. Norman Found, Toronto, bas written us that Mrs. Lewis TrulI whom be knew, was a Bowman, and the five boys had Bowman as a middle name. "I went to sehool with Jesse (now in Alberta) and bis brothers Angus and Earle wbo live near Courtice," Dr. Found relates. "They might give you family tradition." We do thank Dr. Found and will try to contact the Trulîs at an early date. If any mcm- bers o! the family bappen to read this, we would very much appreciate their letting us bave any information regarding the ]Bowmans and the namne Bew- manville. We bave written te the Mr. Oke at Keene men- tioned in an eanlier column in this connection, but have had ne reply as yet. If anyone else has anytbîng to contribute, please let us hear from you.
