FAMILY INCOME An excellent method of having an adequate insurance estate for the man with a young family, Consult,— FRANK C. HOPPER —Representative— Canada Life WINGHAM, ONT. Phone 462 TBE SA by Benedict and Nancy Freedman for two reasons. First, I remembered a previous collaboration of theirs which produced "Mrs. Mike"., It was a, best-selling novel, which Many people will remember be- cause it also was made into I a successful film. Secondly, the set- ting of this story was Mallorca. Mallorca is one of 'the Balearic islands, which stretch in a half circle south of Barcelona, Spain, in the northern. Mediterranean, There are four In the group---the two larger are known as Minorca and Mallorca (the Spanish form of the English Majorca). A few years ago I remeniber, reading a magazine article by a young Ca- nadian widow who had gone there to live. She felt it was an ideal place to raise her chlidren until they were of college age- the climate is' salubrious, the living is cheap, the primary and secondary education is excellent and three languages are spoken. The article intrigued me and in this book saw an opportunity to learn more of this apparent paradise. A most interesting collection of nationalities peopled the. pages. The Mallorqins themselves prov- ed fascinating. Descended from the Moors they speak Spanish and French or a mixture of both; They arc deeply religious, primarilY Ro- man Catholic; and also as some-. times follows with the mystically religious were very supdrstitious. One of the most amusing minor characters in the book are Mar- lene, a voluble girl, •who could never decide in what language to speak. Her sentences might begin in English but were well sprinkled with French, Spanish and even German before the next full stop. Of the natives we met a hotel bell-boy, Miguel Angel, a hotel- keeper, a doctor and .his fiancee and their families—that makes quite a few people. The story is told in the first person by Fred Brighouse, a used-car salesman from California. He stops at The. March meeting of the live. ning Auxiliary of the Baptist Church was held at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Frank Rogers, with the president, Mrs. Bruce McLean. presiding, The meeting opened with the hymn "Hark 'Tis the Shepherd's Voice I Hear" and Prayer by Miss Mary Stapleton. Mrs. Bruce McLean then read a poem. Business for the evening includ- ed a reminder of the hospital sew- ing and missionary sewing at the homes of Mrs. Frank Rogers and Mrs, Roy Burchill. A motion was made to purchase an electric kettle for the kitchen. Topics for the evening were giv- en by Mrs. Richard Kilpatrick, Mrs. Merrill Cantelon, Mrs. J. Hilde- brand and Miss Mary Hotchkiss. The theme was "An Open Mouth". A poem entitled "Prayer Perfect" was read by Mrs. Frank Collar. Mrs. Don Sinclair gave the several prayer requests. Offering prayer were Mrs. J. Hildebrand, Mrs. Richard Kilpatrick, Mrs. George Hotchkiss, Mrs. Merrill Cantelon, Mary Stapleton, Mrs. Alvin Proc- tor, Mrs. Don Sinclair. After the singing of a hymn Mrs. Frank Rogers took for her devo- tions, "Love". Miss Marlene • Ro- gers added to the program with a lovely piano solo, "Love Divine", Mrs. Frank Collar closed the meeting with prayer. A delicious lunch and social time were en- joyed by all the ladies. • 1111111111111111111111111115111111111111 EXPLAINS LAWS TO WRI. MEMBERS ST.
