TWO weeks ago, When writing
our column, we used the expres-
sion "It's an ill wind that blows
nobody any good" ...Ast the time
we felt that we had used the
proverb rather loosely—but had
no thne to do anything about it ..

LATER, we looked up Bart-
lett's "Familiar Quotations" and
found that it did. not come from
the writings of any famous man --
such as Shakespeare, but was a
common saying in England a
century before, . . In 1546, Sohn
Heywood collected and had pub-
lished the earliest known col-
lection* of English colloquial say"-
ings . . . Our saying "It's an ill
wind etc," Is quoted in Bartlett's e
es "An ill winde that bloweth k

•WHAT impresged us, while
reading through the Heywood
excerpts Vis Bartlett's was Ithe
fact that practically all the well
known and often used proverbs
and sayings of today were com-
mon expressions' in. colloquial
English, back half a century be-
fore Shakespeare started to
write . Here are but a few
of these expressions . . . "When
the iron is hot, strike" . . . "Two
heads are better than one" .
"To tell tales) out lof sehoole".
(notice some of the odd spellings!)
. . . Better late than never"*. . .
"Small pitchers have wyde eases"
. "Many hands make light
warke" . . . and practically any
other saying you can think of.

A fine climax to this outstand-
ing program was the presenta-
tion of •"The Song of Christmas"
by Rey Ringwold, with choral
arrangement by Fred Waring, by
the Grade IX music groups and
CDCI choirs, Appropriate scenes
of the annunciation, the hillside,
the Nativity and the adoration
of the Magi were presented in
tableaux, with a narrator out-
lining the story.
