No two people are alike, everyone responds In a different way. Margaret bas a great determination and a buli n stubborness wbicb urges ber on and she ailma for success not failure. Her recovery she feit was rather slow but i corn- parison to others I felt it was rather remarkable. For some Urne ber speech at times was rather hesitant and slurred; now I se a great change.

Margaret bas an organ but at Urnes fids it dif- ficult ta cordinate ber hands and feet, however she does weil as she manages to cope wlth the thredness she sometimes feels What lovely mnusic she makes! I ar n ot a good judge of music, ny rmusic and poetry are itbe thinga I see, the face of a cblld, flowers, trees and the seu. At school fromn beglnnlng to end mnusic, poetry and prose made up a good part of our curriculrn and we used ta tbink we were Inundated wlth it. My husband bad the same background i the arts but neither of us bas excelled i any of tbem. Margaret is excellng but not b ecause of the public sebool systern, just ber own natural talent. 1Sorne of us are interested i genes and woider about sucb. Do the good and the bad pass down tbrougb tbe ages and rnany generations? Richard Wagner tbe-celebrated German author and composer, orginator of the mnusic drarna, born i 1813, and dead i 1883 la an ancestor of Margaret. This la hiteresting and rnaybe quite significant. lier great grandmotber wrote mnusic but at this tirne they have not been able ta find any of it. lias this gift filtered down through'th e ages to a descendent of bis? Probably 80.. The twenty first year of independence for Jarnaica coming up and as Margaret says a prosperous regirne. She may very weil play a part i this celebration. She was warrnly received i teb Prime Minister's office. The Minister of State, Mr. Edrnund Bartlett bas asked ber to inforrn tbem bofore she returns as sbe was asked ta do before but the registered letter did not arrive; a tracer bas been put out ta, track'it down. Wben she returns she wiil sing ber song ta the accompaniment of a band. Hopefully this wiil happen at Montigo Bay.
