WF have been more or less
steeped in a literary atmosphere
this past week, in a vague at-
tempt to prepare a speech—and
We're afraid its pretty vague . ,
However, to get away from our
own efforts, we have been spend-
ing some time glancing through,
our scrap book, which contains
some of the better speeches we
have listened to throughout the
years and, came upon one that
might be of interest to . our
readers . . •
IT was one given just before
the war by the then Governor -
General's wife, Lady Tweedsmuir,
when she spoke to a Canadian
Club luncheon of which we were
in charge of arrangements .
Knowing her background, the
subject she chose was very apt—.
"Books"—and how much they
can mean to as individual end
enrich one's life . .
* 4'
DURING the course of her talk
she enumerated her choice of the
world's best, which she would
take with her if forced to live
on a desert island As a re-
porter, we went to her after-
ward and asked for the list—and
instead of having us or a lady-in-
waiting write them down, she
borrowed "copy" paper from us
and did the job herself—adding
her autograph at our request .. .
It is a page we treasure very
much . .
HER choice of books are not
the obvious classics, but undoubt-
edly are deeper than an average
reader would choose—but here
it is "Gone to Earth," by
Mary Webb; "The. 'Constant
Nymph," by Margaret Kennedy;
"The Bridge of San 'Luis Reiz,"
by Thornton Wilder; "Seven Pil-
lars of Wisdom," by Lawrence
of Arabia; "Common Reader,"
both series, by Virginia Woolf;
1"Road to Xaneda," by Prof. L.
Lowes; Walter de la Mare's
poetry and Stephen Benet's "John
Brown's Body" . . .
