maybe it was the housewife who dashed from ber kitchen door wav ing her dish towel as the royal tram passed by or it could have been tie little girl who held her puppy on top of her head so that it too could see her queen that made the lump come up in my throat i am not usually given to emo tionalism when on an assignment but the spontaneous fealty and na tional display of loyalty as the royal train passed through the little villages and towns along the way gave me a new conception of my fellow canadians attitude toward royalty while thousands packed the streets of the built up areas per haps one of the most impressive displas of homage to elizabeth regina was the shirtless farmer who stood on the seat of his trac tor amid a field of ripening gram and waved his sweaty cap with frantic enthusiasm as we progres sed over the hundreds of miles it was not unusual to see a pro- vmical policeman climb from his cruiser at a deserted level crossing and stand at salute until the train passed by i was touched by the many ex pressions of welcome home own ers beside the tracks had invented one shabby little trot had a long row of coffee cans painted bright flag blue in each one was a oingle red or white petunia on a long thin fishing pole a tinj union jack fluttered in tatters in another neat little garden patch an imaginative tenant had constructed a miniature ferns wheel each of the tin seats was painted red white and blue and in them grewa profusion of red and white flowers but i think the bravest and in a way the most pathetic attempt at decoration was the huge factory where some work er had pasted tiny union jack stickers all over the windows on the third stor i didnt miss this patriotic gesture and i am sure the queen didnt either there was time to see these little human interest angles of the royal tour while the train was in motion but let it pull to a stor for a few moments and bedlam broke loose in the press parlor car cameras were grabbed and polite regard for the feminine sex was completely ignored it was every man for himself in the wild scramble for a vantage point the lucky ones were those who left the train first or those who could run the fastest during the pull through central ontario taxi bills mounted like the national debt one after anoth er of the reporters intent on get ting a new angle missed the train and had to pick it up at the next station after a wild ride in a cab fortunately her majesty had re quested a slow ride between sta tions in order that she might wave to her subjects who lined every country road otherwise there might have been a great gap in coverage for some of the papers represented by those sprinting sweating swearing newsmen during one of these scheduled stops a tall gangling bleached blonde put her swollen feet on an empty seat beside her and an nounced she intended to sit this one out she was hardly the movie directors idea of a woman reporter out to get a scoop or die in the attempt after all sfie rea soned the queen wore the same dress all da said practical the same thing to each major in each town accepted a bouquet of flow ers from a small child uaed to 1 her subjects as she droe b in a fast moving car and returned to the train why should she waste her breath and subject her swol j len feet to another presentation of a municipal council and their wives when a little more than the scheduled time had elapsed for tho stop she awoke with a start from her- fitful dozing whats happened wheres the queen why isnt she back on the train roll ed from hc tongue in- quick suc cession she grabbed the porter by the shoulders shook him sound ly and demanded whats the de lay my g the queen of eng land may have broken her leg or some red may have taken a pot shot at her and im not there to got the facts just as she had about convinced herself that an atomic attack had happened while she slept on the job the train began to roll again such is the nervous sometimes almost hysterical condition news- hounds of the daily papers whip themselves into in an effort to bring a report of the tour to their readers perhaps if some of thorn have been overly imaginative sometimes almost cruelly critical stress can be blamed i was glad mine was a feature witing job with no daily deadline to make i could sit back and relax in the handsomely appointed car relish the superb meals and
