Perfeet weathtar, favored tie -Orange

wise the crowds along the march routes
The custom of providing ears for age;
brethren and sister§'seems to have great
lv expanded a�
1 a deci in zec.eut years, and doubt,
less is a wise measure. At the same
time, to some of the. incredibly young

march must be an ordeal. Wingham's
celebration last Saturday found, 'as usual,
thousands More spectators than marchers.
Everybody loves bands, flags and banners
"acrd, though the little fife and drum group
is now the exception, there. are more
strong and colorful pipe bands.
"King Billy" on a white horse typ-
ifies the occasion for young people, and
probably many adults. Banners recall-
ing 4Boyne, , Aughrim and Derry comp-
lete the tillage of, the Orange Order. Spea-
kers at the ' "1'\velftlr" gatherings may
point
nay
point out that benefactors of the Boyne
battle include every creed and race which
has learned anything ,about political d erm-
oerac•y arid the blessings of free speech
and assembly, but such speeches are del-
ivered to gatherings mainly of Orangemen
after most spectators of the parade have
-(1is1)ersed.
It is still true, howe.v.er, that the
erowds aluzig the ma route route are sym-
bolic of, support, moral or aetive, which.
Ila t,raugeni a have .always carried wit n
- them in a testing time, from those who
- profess to support their principles, Th.zs'
- in 1906 the Orangemen au those ,who
thought with them. On the Manitoba school
1 issue turned .out. a Conservative govern-
- went at Ottawa and put Laurier in power
- for 15 years. That' was democracy in
action, and so it. was in 1911, but govern-
- lug political parties have learned to, keep
elae.tiun. issue s...to_ .neittal:itiiesr ewith ildirig
issues which might arouse, public feeling
and action fur quiet enactment by virtitc
of 'a strong majority in Parliament or
Legislature. Thus the Orange Order's
objectives of "one flag, one school, one
language," being never allowed to div-
ide the electorate, have become progress-
ively less likely of attainment. The same
is true of the battle over distribution of
selloul grants, which seems irrevocably
lost -- or won, depending on where _you
stand.

for commemoration, there being no doubt

Dear Ann Landers: My dear
husband passed away five
months ago. He was- 68 years
old. , Typical - of ' his generous
nature, he was more concerned
for me than for himself, when
he learned his days were num-
bered. He, , made me promise
I would ask his widowed, sister
Kale; -To live with me. •:His last'
words were; "I will rest in peace
only if I know you are not
alone."
Well, Ann, I knew Kate took
a little sherry before supper,
but I didn't know she also drank
gin in,, the morning. I was
shocked to discover she drinks
all day. which explains why she
falls dawn and injures herself
so often.
Kate is very heavy and has a
hard time betting around—even
when she's sober. It's easier
for me to bring her_meals on.•a
tray' than to get her up and
dressed.
Eyer since she moved in I've
been on. 24-hour duty and I'm
exhausted. I realize Kate is a
