For a long time we thought Humpy was alone, and that was perhaps the reason for bis forlorn appearance, but ta- day we saw a Mrs. Sparrow corne out ai the bouse. Maybe he just looks like that because the Miseus won't let him out ai her sight. Our young Wrens are having the time af their lives in the new bungalow, running in the front door and out the back. But they are poor hausekeep- ers. The house is a frightful mess, filled with big twigs laid every which way. No nest, no eggs. Maybe they don't know is past the middle ai May. Perhaps we should hang a cal- endar on the clothes line. The Swallows came back twice, but didn't land.

GOLD IN THE DUSTY STREET We have been tbinking af two kintis ai gald this week, and neither ai them money. One is the gold carpet of dandelions that la spread, alas, across aur lawn, and over the pastures and anchards, gold an green. We read recently that sameane iound dandelians offered for sale in a flowen and seed cata- logue. At last, thought this man, thé~ editor ai "Saturday Night" if we rememben cor- rectly. here is the solution. Yau can't eradicate them, sa why nat cultivate them? For dande- lion greens and possibly dande- lion wine. Well, if anyone wants ta cul- tivate them, we've got thousands ai 'em. We hate ta harn in an the florists and nurseries, but if we could seil all the dande- lions hereabouts we'd be mil- lionaires. And wbo is going ta pass up an opportunity like that? The other kind of gold we've been thmnking ai is a flower toa, the maiýsh marigald. If you have driven through any ai the swampy country north ai hera, you will have seen them by the hundreds.

Just by happenstance it faIls on the "right" day this year. We like long weekends too, but we also like some his- torical signiiicance leit in the dates we celebrate. Be that as it may, Queen Vic- toria's day brings ta mind aur own graciaus Queen. We were thrilled ta read ai the glariaus welcame home ber English peo- ple gave ber. We were proud ta be a part ai a C mmonwealtb which has a Royal Famiîy as its head; a Cammonwealth which can put an "the greatest show on earth" for its Queen, and have love and'loyalty be- hind that show. England is the anly country leit in the world, as far as we know, that carrnes on Royalty in the great tradi- tion, with age-old ceremony, pomp and spiendar.

People lined the English coast ta glimpse the Royal yacht "Britannia". They lined the banks ai the Thames ta see ber arrive. They cheered, guns boomed, belîs pealed.

We are an ardent Imperial- ist, and proud ai it. We feel it s unfortunate that same elem- ents in Canada have caused an emphasis ta be placed on na- ;ionalistic emblemns and certain offices. We feel that the great majority ai Canadians are for Canada, yes; but underlying ail, and baund up in the fundamen- tai nature ai their being is their ie ai the heart with England Lnd aur Queen.

Thomas, president of the Goodyear Rubber and Tire Co. of Akron, Ohio, said in Toronto, last week, "We don't have to be doubtful of our fu- ture. "Now is the time to go ahead." he said. "It certainly isn't a time to pull in our necks." Thomas said his multi-million dollar corporation wasn't think- ing of anything except 'expan- sian. "We are not nearly devel- oped fully in the United States and you certainly are flot fin- ished your expansion here either, he said. Among the things that made the future look bright for the giant rubber industry, said Thomas, is the ever expandîng mnarket for foamn rubber and the fact that the new tubeless tire will probably replace tube tires as standard equipment an al niew cars i 1955. Turning from, industry to em- ployment, Thomas admitted there was "some unemploy- ment". "But the amount of unem- ployment i.s vastly overplayed," he contended. "What the critics don't seem, ta want ta talk about when they are talking employment is that employment has neyer been sa high in the United States. In fact, employ- nent is getting sa good it draws agreat deal of attention to the few who are not working."
