"Indeed, yes. 1 flew up, you know -- got a lift with young Tremblay. He's on his way to Quebec. I'll go down on the bus tomorrow. Curiosity brought me here and I won't go away until it's satisfied."

"It is the first time I have ever talked to a real princess." Meridel laughed. "I am just Meridel now. I must forget the princess. It was a little place, Grat-zen, but it was lovely. Lovely in an old way, with red-roofed houses and crooked lanes and old windmills and the castle of Gratzen high on its rock, its turrets seeming to be made of gold in the sunset."

He found Pol Martin and Rosine engaged in deep conversation with Roger. "--and Bonhomme Fricot would say, 'No bullet ever made could hurt a man's soul and no weapons ever forged can match God's weapons. God's the one to settle dictators; just the same, if you should stumble on one, better hit him on the head while you are asking the divine aid'." "Very sensible," approved Roger. "A great philosopher, this Bonhomme Fricot." - "His cottage was outside the village," said Rosine. "It was in a little wood and this day Pol Martin and I went there and just before we came to the cottage a plane went "And we hid." Pol Martin's blue eyes were seeing it all again. "We hid in a coppice and we saw a German come down in a parachute right in the field back of Bonhomme Fricot's cottage and we saw him draw his revolver and go up to the door and kick it open and walk in." "And there was a shot, then another--crack--crack!" Rosinc's voice was shrill. "A cry--and we knew Bonhomme Fricot, that good man, was dead. We waited and presently the German came out. We could see his face now as he walke:l toward us." "He passed so near to me that I could almost touch him." said Pol Martin, "lie was young like you, Monsieur Roger.

WOMEN VOTING IS NEWS IN FRANCE Two nuns take advantage of their new political freedom in the recent Paris elections, when France for the first time in its history permitted women to cast their ballots. Final tabulation showed 14,000,000 women's, votes were cast as against 8,000,000 for the men. The Quality Tea SALADA TEA CHRONICLES of GINGER FARM Gwendoline P. Clarke Sunshine--heari-warming; soul-satisfying, mud-drying sunshine! Were we ever more glad to see it? When I awoke on Saturday morning, saw the bright sunshine, heard the brids singing as if their little throats would burst with joy, I could hardly believe my eyes and ears. And not only did the sun gladden our hearts by day but there were the moon and the stars to delight us by night. As I went out about elevn o'clock to take one last look at my chickens I was thrilled as I looked up at the star-fillei sky, realizing suddenly that it was neary two weeks since I had seen even one wee star twinkling in the "bowl of night." Now of course, weather prophets are getting busy but, as so often happens, no two prognostications are the same. One fellow says "A long, dry spell after May 21." Another one "Wet weather until June 19"--because it rained on Ascension Day. Partner as a rule, doesn't pride himself on any sixth sense in regard to weather probs but this year he nods his head sagely and says--"Well, what can you expect with so many elections coming off? Look at the speech making that is going on--and it's hot air mixing with cold that caus- If that be so then the air si start clearing after June 4-really make a job of it around 11. It won't be long now and I be forgiven if I breathe a of relief. Don't think by that I am not interested in the out elec I i raid ainly am--and I shall certainly be to vote. But one does g/t so tired of all this political bally-hoo--although I suppose it really is necessary--therje being no compulsion about turning out to cast one's vote, I suppose something has to be done to give people a political Next Wednesday we are looking forward to a few hours visit from Partner's oldest brother who has just returned from a two month's visit to England. We know he was in London and on the South coast so we are hoping he will be able to tell us something about the friends and day Partner had a letter from his sister asking if he would go over to see them. It'is so easy to pick up and leave a farm! And yet, when we left England it didn't seem so very final. It never occurred to us that it was probably the last time we should see our homes and our families. We told them we should be back again in three years--just for a holiday! That was twenty-six years ago. It has been a long three years. Sometimes I wonder what it would be like to go back for a visit. So many friends gone .... youngsters we left in kinder-garden, now^ grown up with families of their own. My mother . . . all that remains for me to see would be a green mound in a cemetery. Thus it is that old familiar places, through time, become strange. Now it is the places that once were strange that are familiar. The folk we have lived among, that we have worked with, and whose interests we share, they have woven a net around us until the district in which we live is now irreparably A visit to England would be fine--I hope some day that that three years will be up--l>jt I haven't a doubt in the world that after a few weeks in the old country we would speak of our return trip as "going home."
