Abtecdeen, at the mouth of the river Dee in Scotland, is often re- ferred to as the Granite City for most of its buildings are of granite | which looks like old parchment in the sun and like silver in the moon- light. The city, indeed, owns the most splendid granite building in the world. This is the Marischal | College, the extension of which was opened in 1806 by King Bdward VII to celebrate the q reenten- ary of Aberdeen's University, The material used in this extension was white granite and its architecture is in the Perpendicular style. The Mitchell Tower is one of its beau- ties. It is 260 feet high. The long graduation hall of the college has an heraldic window which illus- trates its history. This history be- gan in 1593 when George Keith, fifth Barl Marischal of Aberdeen founded it in the old Greyfriars IMOpAStery.

Prescribes Rest After Childbirth Vancouver--(CP) -- The mother who thinks she's entitled to a few days in bed after bearing a child got sympathetic support from Lady Banting, who recently passed through here on the way to Hong Kong University to lecture on gynecalogy and obstetrics. The 36-year-old widow of Sir Frederick Banting, the co-discoverer of insulin, graduated in medicine from the University of Toronto in 1045, four years after her famous husband died in a Canadian air crash, Commenting here on the current medical practice of getting mothers onto their feet a few days after child-birth, Lady Banting said: "Some mothers have only one rest a year, when they go to bed for delivery. It is hard]y fair to take it away from them. "It depends entirely on what the mother's situation is when she gets up. If she can be looked after, it is fine. But if she has four or five children, it isn't fair at all" Centre Street W.A. Holds Social Tea A successful tea was held on Fri- day afternoon at the hcme of the Rev. and Mrs. F. J.
