PHIL INFER OF
LAZY MEADOWS
By Harry Boyle
Aprons have always fascinated ine.
I don't mean the wispy, little things
that sonic women wear lit the city in
order to pretend that they have pre-
pared the supper or the lunch, In
place of that I mean the old fashioned
"pinnies" which research tells me
tomes as a word for some reason or
other from the pinafore.
My grandmother always wore an
apron. As it matter of fact I have
heard her remark on more than one
occasion, "I wouldn't feel right with-
Out my apron." Sh4 wore an apron
around the house to work in, and if
there was a possibility of somebody
coming she took the ordinary, work-
ing one off, and put on h clean, starch-
ed one. I've noticed that when some-
body managed to slip into the house
without het having teen them come
along The road, She would look hor-
rifled :run her hands down in front
of her apron its if to cover it up —
and then make an excuse arid slip away
to change it.

A kitten nearly stole the show from
the Beavereove when the brand new
Canadian Pacific cargo liner arrived at
Montreal from. Liverpool on her maid-
en veyage, The pussy, becoming ex-
cited, overstepped the (kelt and fell
into the harbor just as the ship was
coming alongside. The kitten is shown,
lower tight with eight of its nine liVes
Still intact but very wet after long-
shortmen' succeeded in pulling it to
safety on a rope to which it clung after
failing overboard, 'Upper picture shows
Beavercove corning alongside with her
sister Alp, 13eaverglen, in background.
At lower left, Capt. B. B. Grant, mas-
ter of the Ileavercove, is showing Geo-
rge A. Walker, ICC, vice-president of
the C,P.R,, 'through the wheel house
shortly after the maiden voyage was
-completed, Arrival of the I3eavercove
at Montreal completed restoration of
the Canadian Pacific's fast London-
Canada service, three other newly con-
struttedships having joined the raft
last year, The five ships of the pre-
war Canadian Pacific Beaver fleet were
lost during hostilities.
Grandmother seemed to prefer plain
aprons, They were the type that .took
a starching and showed 4.1p to good
advantage, Mother ott the other hand
liked bright, flowered ones. On occas-
ions when my father and I were in
town and it was later than had been
promised before we returned, he would
slip into a departnient store. Thai
was an experience I tan never forget,
Ile would buy tobacco for himself
and a stick of candy for me. Then we
would move into the section which he
always called the "women's part." It
was all a bit frightening with women's
wear hanging around and being dis-
played in such a, way that a. man
couldn't possibly help but notice them,
rather went through the place like
timid ship through a field of iceburgs,
In some mysterious way he was aware
that this was the proper place to come
for such things , . .as a present for
mother . but he didn't like it titbit.
Now and again he would look up, only
to be faced by the enquiring look of a
rather, amused saleslady or else a par,
titularly intimate portion of clothing
and lie would put his head down
and plow along.
Finally, at the edge of this no-man's-
land he would pause. He had to get
something. '`Miss," he would say,
"Can you tell sue where I could find
aprons?" They would say, "Aprons
for tradeinenr Father would then
blush anti say, "No for ladies?' We
would be directed. Father would look
the assortment over and pick 'out the
brightest one in the pile.
The result was that my Mother had
the greatest collection of aprons of any-
body in the township. She liked them
bright but I do think she wore the
trtost of them on tare 'occasions, and
then, they were worn only to please my
father who felt, when he brought an
apron home, that he had done his very
best.
