, Our Queen EllUbeth was chosen
as "Woman of the Year" by the
editor of Times magazine. With
the honour of the title went the
honour of being the third woman
to be pictured on the front of that
news magazine. The other two
were the Duchess of Windsor and
Madame Chiang Kai-Shelt,
Since 1926 the editors of Times
yearly have chosen the figure that
dominated the news of that year
and left an indelible mark—for
good or ill—on history." It is a co-
incidence that our young Queen
reached her 26th birthday the
same year that Time made the
26th choice which named' her
"Woman of the Year."
From Time's cover story we
quote:
"It was not the fact of her being
queen that made Elizabeth II the
Woman of 1952. That year had no
More respect for the governance
of kings than it did of politicians...
"What, then, was Elizabeth's
significance? It was no more —
and no less — than the signific-
ance of a fresh young blossom on
roots that had weathered many a
season of wintry doubt „
'. . . in cynical 1952, Britons
and Americans alike were often
too plagued by doubt to venture
beyond the safeties of their past.
In Elizabeth tf, by God's grace
Queen, Defender of the Faith,
each might see a reminder of what
was old and splendid, and also a
fresh, imperative summons to
Make the present worthy of re-
membrance. '
Canada's "Woman of the Year"
as chosen by Canadian women's
editors for Canadian Press is
Charlotte Whitton, mayor of Ott-
awa, also chosen as the outstand-
ing woman in public affairs in
1952.
Other outstanding women, chosen
on a basis of news interest in
their own field, were: Miss. Marl-
ene Stewart, Fonthill, winner of
the Canadian ladies' close golfing
championship; Mazo de la Roche,
internationally known for her
novels about the family at White-
oaks; Suzanne Clontier, daughter
of the Queen's Printer, Edmond
Cloutier and an actress of inter-
national fame; Lois marshall,
Toronto soprano, who is now plan-
ning a three year concert tour of
Canada, the United States and
South America.
