To Mother! By MARJORIE STEINER PHONE 240 Prices Reasonable We just can’t let Mother’s Day i life, go by without mentioning it in1 it New and Old Floors RUBBER, LINOLEUM, PLASTIC FLOOR TILE this column, for we realize most of our readers are mothers. Miss Anna Jarvis, of Phila­ delphia, who first suggested set­ ting aside the second Sunday in May as a day on which everyone would pay tribute to his mother, had something quite different in mind than the modern version of it, we think. Her idea of wearing a colored carnation for a mother who is living or a white one in honor of one who has gone be­ fore, is still carried out. But like Christmas, the day has been commercialized until it has lost some of its original sig­ nificance. But it’s a wonderful idea anyway. Mothers in general don't expect expensive gifts. Just let her know what a very im­ portant person she is in your A Page Devoted to the Interests of the Women Readers of The Times-Advocate while she can hear yon say LAYING SANDING FINISHINGSorority Observes Founder's Day Beta Sigma Phi sorority, Alpha Phi Chapter celebrated Founder’s Day at Monetta Menard’s on Thursday, April 30.

LATEST COMMAND PORTRAIT OF QUEEN — Tn latest pre-coronation comaiul portrait by Baron, Queen Elizabeth wears a pale pink evening gown of lace over tulle. The sash is the blue ribbon of the garter. With it she wears the star of the garter. Her jewellery consists of a Russian fringe dia­ mond necklace (a wedding present from the city of London), diamond drop earrings, two diamond bracelets and her dia­ mond wedding ring. The diamond drop brooch at the top of the blue ribbons is a family heirloom that was previously worn by the late Queen Mary. On the Queen’s head is a diamond diadem, the headband of which is composed of a row of dia­ monds between two rows of pearls. The diadem, which is of great age, was reset for Queen Victoria. Portrait—a serious full-length one—was taken in the green drawing room of Buckingham Palace in London. —Central Press Canadian For dessert Serve ICECREAM * FOR PRODUCTS ROSS HAUGH Phone 35-r-8 Dashwood ODD BITS By B.A. the the MONTREAL. — Somebody special coming to lunch? . , .

Mr. Thomas Prest of attended the funeral of Blitz And Sentiment Living for a day under shadow of flying missiles as front wall came tumbling down, I can safely say we’ve known the experience of a blitz. However*, I can’t help feeling a bit sorry as I see the ancient old girl crumble under the work­ men’s crowbars. My sentiments might, in a weak moment, be ex­ pressed thus: Brick by brick, scarred old face is gone, her tears, of wood and mortar inside our wall. Soon, soon she’ll smile With smooth unwrinkled Perhaps you’ll think she’s changed? But year on year, her life, Is in those tears. And they lie deep Within our wall. Lost? It occurred to me the other night, as I listened to an out­ standing talk by the guest speaker at a club dinner meeting, that we in Exeter are luckier than we often might think. Lucky when we consider the number of stalwart citizens in town who are willing to work constructively for their own beliefs. We criticize them, we tolerate them, we ignore them and very seldom do -we really appreciate them. Yet what an asset they are to any community! They would not be lost in a larger community, yet somehow I feel they are often lost to us because we have taken them for granted and notice only when we should find something with which we disagree. Then only is our broken because they prod our minds into if it is only to work up an argu­ ment against, the idea that goes against our grain. ’Tis The Season “When you are eating aspara­ gus, you are eating aspargus— save your breeding for th ■brussel sprouts.’’—A.
