Wife Of Manitoba's Premier Takes Pride In Homemaking By ALLEN SACKMANN -WINNIPEG (CP) -- Visitors who drop in at the home of Pre- mier . Duff Roblin sometimes find Mary MacKay Roblin doing the dishes in the kitchen or making clothes in her sewing room. She used to say she was tired of being mistaken for the maid but nowadays there aren't many people unaware that the wife ef Manitoba's premier does much of her own house- . The fact is there is no maid, only an occasional helper for the heavy cleaning or a woman te mind the two young Roblin children . "I do the housework and I like it," she says somewhat defiantly as she explains that many people think those in public life are tremendously wealthy. A friend confides that Mrs. Roblin is sensitive about this misconception. Duff Roblin sev- ered his business connections when he became provincial Progressive Conservative lead- er in 1954. He now earns $22,800) a:year and has a $3,000 expense | allowance as premier. Mary Roblin makes most of her own clothes, including hats, and often does her own hair. Her friend describes her as "fantastic" homemaker. And that talent is no accident. TRAVELS WITH HUSBAND After graduating with an arts degree from the University of Manitoba, she spent a period at home learning domestic skills before setting out on a career. Mrs, Roblin, who at 38 is 12 years younger than the pre- mier, travelled frequently with her husband until Stephen Andrew was born in October, 1959. j "J think a wife's first duty is te her husband ... but now that the children are here--and at this age--I feel they can't be left alone very long," she said in 1961 when Jennifer was about six months old. Since Mr. Roblin began cam- |paigning for the national lead. jership of the Progressive Con- servative party this summer, however, Mrs. Roblin has made arrangements to be on the hust- ings with him. A petite brunette with an easy, flashing smile, Mrs. Rob- lin was born Mary Linda MacKay. Her father, Douglas MacKay, worked as a reporter for The Canadian Press in Otta- wa at the time. The family moved to Winnipeg when Mary was three. He was public rela- tions director for the Hudson's Bay Ce. when he was killed in a plane crash in 1938. WORKED FOR CBC | Since her mother and brother Shane were also journalists, it was almost a foregone conclu- sion that Miss MacKay would also enter the business. Admitting she wasn't "much of a reporter or writer,' she says she enjoyed editing and page layout but later turned in her pencil for a job with the CBC. There, as a producer in the public afairs department, she got to know the young Manitoba politician she met casually at parties | "IT used to work with him on his radio addresses while he |was still leader of the opposi- tion," she recalls. "It really wasn't much work because he is an excellent speaker and his speeches were always well pre- pared." In 1958, just after Mr. Roblin became premier, speculation abounded that he was about to marry. Mrs. MacKay, Mary's |mother, confirmed what had been gossip and the wedding \took place Aug. 30, 1958. The children are Stephen Andrew, 8 and Jennifer, 6.
