Patience and :l Rumour Exefli n -:.pain There is a delightful old Spanish proverb which it is wise to learn be- fore visiting the country: "Have pa- tience, and the mulberry -leaf will be- come satin." A tiny story illustrates this admir- ably. Going to one of the frontier sta- tions for a friend's arrival we saw the notice chalked up that the train was two hours late. After inspecting the church and wandering round the vil- lage in an icy wind for the prescribed two hours we returned to the station to find no sign of any train. The sta- tion -master, who regarded us with a pitying look, was approached. "Was the train then more than two hours late?" "Mesdames, the train is seven hours late," he replied. "But why do you put up the notice that it is two hours late?" "Ah, that, mesdames—that is to give a little hope!" If you have the gift of leisure and of humor, Spain unfolds itself to you as a country of great charm and character, but there must be no ques- tion of rushing 'trough it. If you have patience your mulberry - leaf will indeed become satin; you will realize the graciousness and dignity of the Spanish character and will taste the full flavor of those delightful qualities. Indeed, in a few weeks you will come to agree with the Spaniard himself that rush and hurry are un- dignified and, in Spain at least, will ef- fectively prevent your seeing either country or people as they really are. 1 —From "Spanish Surnhine," by Elean- or Elsner. and sky and Canada Reserves Section British Industries Fair' Ottawa•—It was announced recently by the Department of Trade and Com merce that reservation of a Canadian section at the Birmingham section of the_.British Industries Fair next year has been made by the Canadian Ex- hibition Commission.
