A Woman's Viewpoint on This and That
By MBA
TODAY (Thursday) 'is the; However, as the "24th" so often
falls in the middle of the week,
and thus' does not serve the pus
pose that a Monday holiday
would, we have heard many sug-
gesting that the last Monday hi
May or the first Monday in June
would 'be much more ideal . .
*:*
IT could serve as a celebration
for our present King's birthday,
which has beenshoved from De-
cember to June for no apparent
reason For only a favored
few civil servants, bank em-
ployees and the schools observe
the holiday ... A statute holiday
on one of the Mondays mention-
ed, would give everyone a long
weekend for a holiday away from
home or an opportunity to ac-
compltisth the many jobs that need
attention around the lionte and.
garden this time a year . .
twenty-fourth of May and a boli -
clay ... . Years ego this day was
celebrated throughout the"iota"
British Empire ih honour of the
good. Queen Victoria .
1' 5, 4'
YN those days too, it was : of
special significance to the "col-
onials" in Canada "Our lady of
the, Snows" . For then it was
the custom- that the "24th" be
designated as the proper time for
Children and adults alike to shed
these woolly unmentionables (red
or otherwise)

IN these iays, Kipling's de•
scription of the Canadian weather
may have been more apeerre than
th••se pest ten days We'doubt
if anyone, atm:oring tit the old
custom, could carry on during the
hot summer days of last week
and the early partk of this
*
BUT the Victorian era, with
the British Empire at the height
of its glory end its suedo pros-
petsity ended on August 4, 1914
Long since, the nations of.
the Commonwealth, including
Britain, have given up celebrat-
ing Victoria's birthday — except
Canada ... We find we need a
public holiday this -time of year—
so
earso the custom. has ceeried on .. .
