TH AAIA<BAESA.DWMNIL. NA!O HBDYJN lu,11 ]BRIGHT DAY WITH MES. A. The one and anly Kate Ait- ken, Mr&. A., author, radio cammentator and world travel- 1er, was guest speaker at Smith's Llterary Luncheon last Thurs- day. Thougb the crowd wos zmaller than at same lunch- eans, those present report an enjoyable time with a spark- Iing talk by Mrs. Aitken in wbich she contrasted writing of radio and TV scripts with the more leisurely style off book writing. Mrs. Aitken's book off rem- Iniscence on ber cbildbood in the village off Beeton, Simcoe County, bas sold out its ffirst Canadian printing and will be publi.%hed in the U.S. in March. We are presently enjoying "'Neyer A Day Sa Bright" (pub- lished by Longmans Green & Ca.) and recommend it ta those who take pleasure in a j )ok backward ta the days off I.-e village general store, win- ters when snow drifted ta the fence tops and cbildren were put in their long underwear in Octaober; when mitts dried in the aven off the big kitchen Tange and the parlour was re- served for Sundays and special REMSm SETON 5>1 At Box M1E AN BV MM.!

Mrs. Aitken has conveyed life to her family here portrayed, and the anecdotes are amusing. A leafflet given to each lunch- eon guest, containing exçrpts from the Beeton World dl the same era must have brough. back memories ta many city dwellers whose childhoad was spent in a small tawn. News items and ads for patent medi- cînes are mixed together indis- criminately. In going over Statesman files off the same per- lad, this has always amused us. It made reading exciting though, and probably resulted in a bign readersbip far advertisements. Premier Leslie Frost chair- ed the luncheon and introduced Mrs. Aitken. Metro Chairman Fred Gardiner thanked ber and head table guests were intra- duced by Gardon Sinclair. Lucky draw prizes were again given. and were books off course. May W. H.

Ca=rthers Lunney VOICE 0F THE ATLANTIC PROVINCES We acknowledge witb thanks and pleasure, receipt off two copies off The Altaric Advocate frorn the editor and publisher, Michael Wardell, Fredericton, New Brunswick. Sub-titled "The Vaice off the Atlantic Provinces", tbe maga- zine is a well printed, good periodical carrying informative articles on Maritime subjects and stories by sucb well knawn autbars as Charles Bruce and Ernest Buekler. Our sincere congratulations on a very fine magazine. Canada can do with more off the same calibre. A hlgbligbt now and for some montbs ta came, is tbe serialization off Lord Beaver- brook's memoirs, "My Young Days in New Brunswick". Lord Beaverbrook's boyboad days were spent in Newcastle, N.B. wbere bis father was minister and since that time, be bas ibeen its benefactor in many ways. One was in buying the aid Manse, bis boyhood home, and converting it into a library for Newcastle and surrounding dis- trict. We had the pleasure off talkmng witb tbe young English lilbrarî an, Miss Barbara Gandy, w ho was chosen by Lord Bea- verbrook to furnisb, equip and establish tbe Old Manse Libra- ry. Yau may remember aur ac- count off tbis enjoyable inter- view written for The States- man in October, 1953 wben Miss Gandy was visiting Mr. and Mrs. J. Ross Stutt. A picture off the Manse when Lord Beaverbrook lived there witb bis parents and ffamily, appearing in the December At- lantic Advocate brought tbe in- cident ta mind and made us feel that we bacl a ffriendly con- nection witb Newcastle, N.B. Miss Gandy did talk off coming back ta Canada. We wonder if she did? Anyway, we'd like ta stretch a band across the miles ta Editor Wardell in Frederic- ton. The Atlantic Advocate makes these provinces whicb we bave neyer seen, seem much dloser. A product off wbich tbey can be proud, is tbeir au- thors and joumnalists. The At- lantic Advocate is providing an- other outiet for their talents, and ahl authors need outlets. Comedy Skits Are Planned For Carnival The 1957 Carnival off the Bawmanville Skating Club ta be held in the Bowmanville Memorial Arena on Friday and Saturday, February 22nd and 23rd, will bave everytbing ta imake it tops in entertainment. Glamour, sensational skating, amusing skits, spectacles, daring feais and comedy, will ail be part off tbe programme. Tbe tats, wbo are always a great bit, will be in two entrancing numbers in this Carnival. Rehearsals are going with .ai swing and ail the participants are entbusiastic. John S. Rod- way, the club's professional, bas planned the cboreagraphy which is entirely new and includes in- tricate steps and amazingly ef- fective routines. Tickets are now on sale by the club members. In ffact there is a competition being beld witb prizes ta be awarded ta those selling the most tickets. The demand is beavy.
