fore traffic was blocked. Some classes had been cancelled on Fri-
day. while at other schools, buses returned home as soon as they ar-
rived when weather forecasts predicted the arrival of the blizzard
Iatc Friday morning.
40 YEARS AGO

sonic meeting.

85 YEARS AGO
February 2, 1912 - A circular to the public school inspectors has
been received from the department of education at Toronto an-
nouncing a new schedule of examination fees. Among them is the
innovation of a SI fee for high school entrance, for which there has
been previously no charge.
The junior matriculation fee has been increased from $5 to $8 and
the partial matriculation fee $12. It is Stated that the increase in the
fees is for the purpose of preventing candidates unprepared for their
examinations trying them for the mere sake of trying.
The Crediton boys went to Exeter Thursday night and played a
game of hockey with the Exeterites. They suffered a defeat by a
score of 5-4. They are busy practicing and promise the boys of the
neighboring town an interesting game when they come back here.

The head that wears the crown
Kings and queen are but human
and all of us have come to forgive
so much in other humans...
Dear Editor:
The question of retaining or dissolving British
monarchial rule has repeatedly been the object of
comment and attack in British and worldwide media
in recent years. Polls have been taken and much has
been made of particularly public reaction that was
less than supportive. Apparently wakeful or even
sleepless nights are not something new to royal
heads of state. According to Shakespeare King Hen-
ry IV had the• same problem when he coined the
phrase, "Uneasy lies the head that wears the
crown". Of course, hack in his century he had the
added worry of losing the head along with the
crown it wore. Present concerns in Britain today
seem to centre around the personal qualities of pos-
sible successors to Elizabeth's throne when she re-•
linquishes it by time or choice.
It is interesting to the writer, at least, and hopeful-
ly to readers, how the image of our sovereign has
changed during one lifetime, granted. a long one.
For the first five years of my life I was a subject of
Edward VII. According to tales that have come to
light posthumously, he was a real playboy while
waiting for his mother Victoria to live out her long
reign of 64 years. His face still stared from the glass
of the pendulum compartment of the school clock
during my early school years, although he was suc-
ceeded by his son, George V in 1911. We pupils felt
that the king was our king, although we were more
fearful of displeasing Santa Claus. but it was the
king that we asked God to save every day when we
sang the National Anthem. In the early years of
WWI our service men went to save king and coun-
try but gradually shook off the status of "colonialp';
especially after such campaigns as that at Vifny
Ridge. The Statutes of Westminster recognized our
right to nationhood sorue years after the war.- -
The staid and proper foundations of British royal-
ty were shaken and perhaps slightly sailed by the
antics of Edward, Prince of Wales, who was to suc-
ceed George V as king of Britain and tolerated his
love of polo, cigarettes and the company of beauti,
ful ladies with a boys- will -he -boys shrug. Edward
went on to prose that even a king on the very brink
of coronation can allow personal. dreams to super-
sede royal obligations when he abdicated his throne
for the woman he loved an American divorcee.
But he and his lady did live happily ever after, so it
appeared. Brother George. Duke of York, succeeded
to the throne as George VI with Lady Elizabeth
Bowes Lyon as his Queen - the beloved Quecn
Mother extending well into their daughter's tenure
as Elizabeth Il. Now again thc human element in
royal blood in her offspring has rocked the royal
family's foundations, providing grist for the media's
many mills.
This writer agrees with those who think and say
that the monarchy should survive in Britain and in
the Commonwealth in the world. Kings and queens
are but human and all of us have come to forgive so
much in other humans and ourselves. Almost cer-
tainly British tourist trade would fall off seriously if
there were no spectacle of the changing of the guard
at Buckingham Palace to watch and a lived-in
Windsor Castle or Balmoral Palace. Surely, I am
happy that we now have a Canadian Governor-
General and that we are a nation held in high respect
in the world, but I still feel good when speaking•of
our queen. Long may she reign!
