Last week we had several enquiries as to whether or not the stores were going to close on June 3rd, the King‘s birthday. _ The fact that the banks and government offices were closing for the day no doubt was the reason for the enquiries although as.a matâ€" ter of fact the day has never been observed as a holiday by the general public. The explanation is that ever since the death of Queen Victoria we have continued to observe her birthâ€" day, the Twentyâ€"fourth of May, inâ€" stead of that of the reigning monarch. This idea was approved at the time by the King and has been continued ever since. _ Canada enjoys the disâ€" tinction of being the only country in the British Empire to take a holiday on the 24th. Here ‘alone, the old ditty applies:â€"‘*The Twentyâ€"fourth of May is the Queen‘s Birthday, if you don‘t give us a holiday, we‘ll all run away.‘‘ Even in England the Twentyâ€"fourth is no longer a holiday, the present King‘s birthday being obâ€" served instead. As long as we hold to the Twentyâ€"fourth in the Dominion, the 3rd of June, which comes just about a week later, is not likely to be popuâ€" larly observed. Especially so as it comes at a season when the public is usually well provided with holidays, just after the weekly halfâ€"holidays have started in most towns and when the vacation season for those who take a vacation has begun."‘ The St, Mary‘s Journalâ€"Argus last week says :â€" WHY KING‘S BIRTHDAY IS NOT GENERALLY OBSERVED.

There were a couple of places where it was very heavy going and hard sledding, but the motorists had the satisfaction of knowing that it was at least posâ€" sible. There are only a couple of bad strips, and it is likely that these will be fixed at an early date. It is now quite confidently expected that motorists will be able to go to :Cochâ€" rane for the Firemen‘s Tournament on July 1st. It may be noted in passâ€" ing that the road between Timmins and Porquis Junetion has a couple of places that ought to thbe repaired or remedied, also. ‘‘Are men paying too much attenâ€" tion to clothes nowadays, instead of calistheniecs? _ Is the modern letting down of respect for the things our fathers cherished a sign of decm?
