I read a poem the other day by E. J.
Pratt which ran something like this:
"It took the sea a thousand years to
carve a massive piece of rock into a
shape of torture but it took it only
overnight to do the same thing to a
woman's face."

In our community there is a woman
who has had a very difficult life. Her
father was a shiftless type and she was
born ambitious, As a child she .didn't
seem the same as the others. She was
working and reading and borrowing
books from neighbours. Her high
school life was a constant round of
working and studying and she seemed
to grow smaller and thinner as the
years went by*. . but there was al-
ways a pride about her. It wasn't so
much pride I guess as it was strength
and a lot of stubbornness. Eventually
she went to .college and came through
it with flying colors. Her career look-
ed AS. if it nwould certainly be a bright
one,
Her mother took sick and she had
to come home beealfse the father was
not capable of looking after the moth-
er, When that girl came home she
even roused her father to work for a
little while but it didn't last, He was
too used to a life of slovenly disinter-
est and she had to give up. They were
poor and she even' started working for
one of the neighbours for a part of
each day to get a little money and
still be close to her mother. This drag-
ged on for seven or eight years and
then the inother died.
The girl married a local boy of fair
means, The years had been too hard on
her I suppose to face a career. Maybe
it was just the security that marriage
could afford, Within fops years of the
time they married lie was sent away to
a Sanatorium. By this time she bad a
child, a boy. Talk about the determin-
ation to win, She converted the farm
into a poultry farm, worked from daWn
until dusk herself and managed to
make a paying proposition out of it.
In spite of all this hardship she' re-
mained the same. There was a quiet
determination about her. She was go-
ing to win, no matter what the odds
might be. I have never heard a single
person say that . they ever heard her
complain.
Then last summer her boy was
drowned while swimming back at the
river. It was her last hope and yet she
carried on. At the same time I re-
member very well seeing her the day
after it happened. Her head was erect
but carved deep into that magnificent
face were the scars of a lifetime of
suffering_ and hardship that seemed
suddenly to have come there overnight.
