Mi SNOW ON SNOW It is the afternoon ai Twelfth Night as we write, and "snow is falling, snow on snow" as an cid European carol so beauti- fully describes il. It is falling gently but steadily and the fields are- white and dlean and loveiy. Throtigh the air came the shouts af a group of boys and girls sleigh riding down the hill near-by. We cen sec themn fromn the window. What. fun! Last year we wnvered out on the ice on skates for thz first time in many yeers, this p ar it may be sleigh riding. t esonly a little bill, but we expect it wiil look big enough for the walk up. This is the time for winter, go 4"1et it snow, let it snow, let it snow" as a popular sang puts it. Speaking of sangs, we'll just thraw this litIle bit in withaut any other reason. A sang which Elvis Presley sings (?) besides "Hound Dag", "Love Me Tender" is an old melody once knawn as "Aura Lee", and now we have il in its present version. The melody sung or played by someone non- Elvis is very pretty. THERE IS NO SUBSTITUTE We spoke necently af Pnin- cess Marie Louise and pianist Ray Dudley's association with hier. The Princess was 84 at her cieath and during a fulli lue of travel and association with royalty and important people ai many countries. she picked up and stored a great fund ai otaries and reminiscences, She enjayed lufe, bad wit and humour herself and appreciat- ed them i others. Besides, she lied a wanderful memory. Our present Queen Elizabeth en- cauraged ber ta write ber mern- *irs, and the resuit, "My Mem- cries ai Six Reigns", is by al accounts a highly entertaining book. We hope we wili get a chance ta rend il before long. also Pro-1 fesson C. T. Curreily 's book, "I ]Brought the Ages Home". That. it is a fascinating book has been proven by its popuiarity. W. A. Deacan in his column in The Globe andl Mail comments thati DEI SEAL FOR BASEMENTS 85 x HTELENA RUBINSTEIN ESTROGENIC HORMONE Hand Lotion SPFCIAI you neyer can tell what wili be a best seller. Nat many would have prcdicted s0 wide an interest in the story ai a mu- seum. Perhaps it belps ta prove a paint which bas already been put forth by someane, that though television may have caused n decrease in the num- ber ai aduit readers, the num- ber left, and il is considerable, is made up ai those for whom there can be no substitute for a good book. Ever. Tbey are the people who rend widely, but critically, wbo select the best fane ibooksaend al iterature and who would die ai starva- tian witbout it. No inducement is needed ta nead a baok like Professor Cur- relly's, but an added note af interest is that the author's home is only next door ta our awn iocality, nonth ai Wcicome. WATCH FOR IT An item of interest cornes frorn the Staff News ai the New York Public Library. There is ta be e special issue ai Maclean's Magazine on Fcb- nuary 16, devoted ta Hungary. The editor ai Maclean's (this wouid be Ralpb Allen we pre- sume) went ta the main library et Fiith and 42nd St. in New York for belp i research for this issue. Wben be finishcd, lie sent a cheque for a substantial suma ta the Canadian Red Cross for Hungarlan Relief, which be said was "made possible iargely by the graciaus co-aperatian that a number ai people have extended ta Maclean's in tbe preparatian ai n special issue devoted ta Hungary." Needless, ta say, the Library was veny pleased ta have contributed ta the iund by giving assistance in tbis way. Incidcnteiiy, the research de- pantments ai tbis great libraryý have requests from mast ai the countries ai the world. Such sections as the Pbotography and Music Divisions would be par- ticulariy amazing ta people wbo think that a library is just n place wbere books are band- Clearance Price l5431 Revion Aquamarine Lotion Once a year special Double size battis You save 75c 8-oz.$2.00 value $1.95 $1.2,5 r IJURY & LOVELL PHONE MA 3-5778 BOWMANVILLE âm àM ed Over a desk.t We'il be watching for the Féb- ruary 16 issue- of Maclean s with special interest. WHICH IS MORE IMPORTANT We were intcrested ta note: that bjoth the Saline Women's Institute and Enniskiiien Unit- ed Church sent gifts ta the Home for the Aged et Cobourg. We are sure this thoughtful- 1ness would heip ta' brighten the hours for thase whose days 'must be a procession af mono- tony. This brings up the question, why- was the new Home shel-- ed? The aid building has been condemned by authorities an a, number of counts and is knowri to be greatiy avererawded. Isn't a home for aider people as important as providing a bright and shining new office building for the Counties? It would seem flot. It is amazing bow the voice of conscience can be ignored. Perhaps it is i tîme that these institutions were taken out of local handi. Millions of dollars are païd out by the Federal G-vernment in family allowance. To our way of thinking it would make a gret deal more sense ta ke providing adequate pensions and comfortabie homes for those at the other end of the line wvho have lived their lives as best tbey could, made their contribuition ta the world, and now need a heiping hand. ]KEDRON, (Intended for last week> With Rev. R. H. Rickard in the pulpit on Sunday afternoon were two student ministers, Mr. Ted Dobb of London, who gave the Scripture readings, and Robert Werry of Waterloo Coi- lege who prcnched the sermon.

Kedron Junior Farmers have cnjoyed a week of activity with choir practice on Wednesday cvening at the home of Mrs. E. Dobson, director, followed by a hamburg and fruit punch- pnrty.

On Friday evenlng the County Junior Farmers' dance was held at Uxbridge. Miss Jeanine Werry and partncr T. Brown of Green- bank were the iucky, winners of the spot dance prize. Many Kedron friends ofiPPlot James Pengeiiy were shacked ta hear of his unfortunate accident last week, when the Canso 'plane in which he was co-pilot with Veteran Airways Pilot James Hobbs of Porcupîne, was forced down in- dense woods near Ka- puskasing, Ontario. In spite of R.C.A.F. emergency assistance the flyers wcre forced ta spcnd some time in the intense cold before a landing spot cauld be cleared for the relief 'capter ta take them ta hospitai.
