It is June and all the world
loves a lover. What better time
for the world to know that
Princess Anne is to be married
to her horse-riding soldier?
There's something about
royal wedding....or even a royal
engagement....which dazzles the
imagination. It sets hearts
aflutter in the same way as the
fairly tales of childhood. But
this time the princess is alive
and the marriage is real.
There's excitement in that.
Anne's intended is a com-
moner, though a wealthy com-
moner it seems. That adds a
dimension of romance which
all British subjects appreciate.
He's also handsome, athletic
and very masculine, the exact
characteristics that most
women look for and adore in
men.
Just to give you an idea of
how old I am, I should tell you
that I can readily recall when
the Princess' mother was
married. I made a scrapbook of
that wedding and somewhere
in my attic it can be found as a
testimony of the big play the
newspapers gave that royal
wedding.
For weeks and weeks prior to
the event, there were sketches
of everything from the wedding
cake to the bride's gown. There
were lists of wedding guests,
stories about the bride's
trousseau, pictures of the happy
couple as they walked (not too
close mind you) in the royal
gardens.
And when the wedding ac-
tually did take place, the
newspapers were literally filled
to the brim with picutres and
stories of absolutely everything.
On the day of the wedding, I
remember rising at five in the
morning or some such un-
thinkable hour, to hear the
report on the radio. As I recall,
reception was atrocious, partly
because the event was taking
place across the seas and sound
equipment wasn't up to snuff
and partly because the radio at
home was on its very last legs.
Of course, there is quite a dif-
ference between the young prin-
cess (now Queen) Elizabeth
and Princess Anne. Princess
Anne has had the advantage of
a swinging father who wanted
his children to grow up as far
removed from the public eye as
possible—and Anne, bless her,
is as much like the average
young woman in love as a prin-
cess can be,
From all reports, the demure
Princess Anne can lay a Royal
tongue-lashing on a body if she
cares to and according to some
newsmen and photographers,
she has oft done so. Not that
entirely blame her. If some
shutterbug was following me
around waiting for my slip to
hang out or my eyelash to fall
in my soup, I'd not be in
the sweetest frame of mind
either.
I suppose now that the
engagement has been formally
and properly announced, some
of the heat will be off Anne and
her handsome Mark. Now, at
least, the two won't have to an-
swer those foolish questions
that some uncouth press types
can ask like "Is there any truth
to the rumor that you two will
be married?" or "Tell me
Mark, does the Queen approve
of you seeing her only
daughter?" and "Princess
Anne, would you be able to
become the wife of a combat
soldier?"
Funny thing about royalty.
Many, many people pooh-pooh
the idea of a Queen at the head
of things, but just let her or one
of her family make the
suggestion of a wrong move
and everyone has something to
say about it. It is almost as
though. they were public
property - puppets without a
will or a mind of their own.
I'm not what could be called
a royal family buff but I am
content with a sovereign head.
I get a kind of glow when I
think that the little princess is
,now a woman, that she's taking
a husband and making a home
of her own. It is rather like
living a dream.
But I wouldn't harrass the
princess, I wouldn't put any
demands on her. She's her own
boss. She's a right to live her
own life.
If I get to peak once in a
while - such as at her wedding -
I'm satisfied and happy.
One of the things which
fathers of little girls start
worrying about very early in
their daughters' lives is whom
they will marry.
I was no exception. (I used to
tell 'em they could not hope to
be as lucky as their mother
was, but that always made her
cry, so I quit it.)
Well, one day I was fan-
tasizing about my daughters'
futures and the thought
horrified me that they might
marry a minister. And then I
was even more horrified at the
fact that I was horrified at the
thought of my daughter giving
her life to the very institution
to which I was dedicating my
one arid only life.
I wondered why I should be
disturbed at my children in-
vesting their lives in the
Church. Was it because they
might have to put up with the
kind of foolishness, pettiness
and irrelevance their mother
and I did? Was it having to
move around a lot? No, these
problems existed in every
human life today.
The real anxiety, I realized,
was based upon the in-
stitutional back-biting, am-
bition-sellouts and com-
promise of self in the clergy, it-
self. The arbitrary uses of ec-
the groom, Bracebridge; Miss
Cindy Stanley, niece of the
bride, Clinton; and flowergirl
Miss Ruby Baird, also a niece
of the bride, Riverhurst,
Saskatchewan. They were
gowned identically to the
matron of honor and carried
nosegays of yellow and mauve
daisies with green fern.
Ian Boyes, Bracebridge, was
groomsman. Ushers were Doug
Jones, Brucefield, and Bruce
Elliott, Bracebridge.
The wedding reception was
at the White Carnation,
Holmesville, with the bride's
mother wearing a long blue
crepe dress trimmed with gold
and a corsage of yellow roses
and the groom's mother in a
long brown velvet dress styled
with sheer sleeves, and a cor-
sage of yellow roses.
Guests were present at the
wedding from Bracebridge,
Barrie, Belhaven, Sutton,
Buckhorn, Melton, Pickering,
Cooksville, Toronto, Waterloo,
Hamilton, Kitchener, St.
Catharines, London, Seaforth,
Goderich, Burlington, Clinton,
Hensall, Brucefield and
Riverhurst, Saskatchewan.
The couple are residing at
Brucefield following a
honeymoon to Collingwood and
parts north., ,
bTideivas -hdliored It a
trousseau tea the week before
the wedding when about 125
persons attended. She was the
guest of honor at several
showers as well.
clesiastical power, the ways the
bureaucrats silenced the really
meaningful ministries, and the
rewards for compromise in-
stead of competence were
threats to the very value of life.
Out of that intense moment
came a vow upon the altar of
my hopes for my children not to
tolerate nor leave behind me a
church which I would not
rejoice to see them live for. Oh,
it has nothing to do with
denomination nor dogma. It is
a matter of realism, relevance
and redemptive power.
It is a searing soul-pain to
see ministers call for the
laymen to have courage, while
the clergy sells out to in-
stitutional pressures and
promises of promotions. (I have
never understood what a
"promotion" is to a person who
loves the Kingdom of God,
anyway.) It is a feeling of panic
to see the Church challenge the
Devil in battle for the souls of
'men, and then ask the forces of
evil for their own weapons of
wealth, popularity and military
might!
The great pruning of God's
vineyard (John 15) is the
refusal of men to serve a
Church that is not worthy of
their children's lives!
Dick Roorda led the Clinton
Christian Reform song service

bers of the congregation for-
ming a choir for the singing of
