A few weeks ago I vowed not to
mention the weather again,
because the subject was stale.
But since the phrases "white-
out", "no buses running" and
"one-lane traffic" have vanished
from my vocabulary, I've
changed my mind.
It's refreshing to refer to the
weather in terms of daffodils,
green grass and spring wheat,
raking lawns and planting gar-
dens, sunshine and even warmth.
The temperature is high enough
today for working outside in
shorts and sleeveless tops. With
optimism, I proclaim, "Winter is
gone, and good riddance to him!"
I even had my snow tires
removed.
In a book of poetry, I found a
selection that aptly describes
this time of year. It was written
by Edwin John Pratt, a Canadian
poet, and is entitled "Putting
Winter To Bed".
"Old Winter with an angry frown
Restationed on his head his
crown,
And grew more obdurate,
As rumours every day had flown
From some officials near the
throne
That he might abdicate...
His patience had been sorely
tried
By a recent blow dealt to his
pride,
When March, the stripling, dared
To jeer at him with callow yells,
And shake the hoary icicles
From off the royal beard...
c
The gage accepted, Winter drew
First blood, then beat him black
and blue
With Nordic thrust and swing,
Till March at last, the wily fox,
Clipped him on the equinox,
And bashed him round the ring;
And would have clearly had him
down,
Captured his domain and crown,
When three parts through the
bout,
Had not the king with a trick
malign,
Cracked him on the nether sign,
And March was counted out.
So now, with an Alaskan ire,
He donned in full his white attire,
Lord of the Polar waste,..
And yet before the week was
passed,
Neuralgic headaches thick and
fast
Were blinding him with tears;
Despite the boast, he needed rest
To stop that panting in his breast,
That buzzing in his ears...
He laid his head against a stump,
One arm inclined upon a clump
Of glaciated boulders;
The other held his side—he had
Pleuritic pains and very bad
Rheumatic hips and shoulders...
A sorry sight indeed he lay,
A god-like being in decay...
The day that April found him...
With one glace at his swollen feet,
Her diagnosis was complete,
That dropsy had set in...
`0 shame, that March should thus
surprise him,
Without a thought to acclimatize
him
Towards a mellow age;
I know another way benign
To lead him through an anodyne
In his hermitage!
Then with a bath of rain and
sleet,
She took the chilblains from his
feet
With tender lubrication;
She poulticed out the angry spots,
The kinks and cramps and spinal
knots,
And all discoloration.„
It took three days to get his throat
Clear of that wheezy guttural
note,
His brain to vaporize;
She conjured him at last to rest;
Folded his hands across his
breast
And sealed up both his eyes...
With one thing more, her task
was done—
Something she found hid from the
sun
Within a valley low;
`Just what he needs, dawn fresh
and white—
The north wind brought it
over-night —
A counterpane of snow...
Then taking on a mood austere,
Kneeling, she whispered in his
ear,
A world of discipline...
`For eight months now without
demure,
You give your promise not to stir,
And not to roar or wail,
Or send your north wind with its
snow,
Or yet the east whose vapours
blow
Their shuddering sleet and hail.
So help you then for evermore
If you so much as cough or snore,
My seven younger sisters,
Who follow after me in turn,
Are under strict command to
burn
Your body up with blisters...
But If you keep this honest vow,
I pledge their virtue, here and
now,.
To rouse you in December; •
Then you may come on Christ-
mas Day
With furs and bells, reindeer and
sleigh—
But, hand on heart—remember!"

included in the new Institute song

If rain is now pelting your
daffodils, it's just April bathing
Winter's feet. And, if your tulips
are nipped by an over-night frost,
remember, spring needed a
coverlet to put winter to bed.
May he rest in peace for a long,
g long time.
Many Thanks
to the Women's Auxiliary members,
volunteers, and the many husbands for their
enthusiasm and long hours of service, Com-
bined with the response of donors and the
public, the Rummage Sale was a huge
success. Thanks again for supporting our
hospital.
