Old FOLDS IL, England
Who Tycuei BY Proxy

We had the Old Folks Reunion Tea
in our village few weeks ago-an an.
nual event arranged by the local
branch of the Woman's institute, when
all people more than sixty years old
are invited and given a really good
meal, followed by a concert which in
cludes the old songs they love to hear.
The interval between the tea and the
concert is always occupied by a few
minutes chat by the fire, when the
group of "oldsters" congregate and
exchange "reminiscences. This to an
outsider Is the most interesting part
of the evening.
Last time l heard from him he had
got nice apartment Just near the
Chateau Frontenac," was a phrase that
caught my ear. A hale old man of
seventy was discussing his son in Que
bec-a man who had done well in the
real estate business since he left the
village thirty years ago.
And, without shame (for the con.
versatlon was generaD, l listened in
to little group of old men and women
near the fire who We're discussing sons
and daughters who had left their
homes and were seeking happy futures
abroad.
They talked, with real local knowl-
edge acquired from treasured letters,
of such places as Hobart, Victoria,
Vancouver, Montreal Auckland, the
Falkland islands, Quebec, and other
places thousands of miles away.
The letters they treasure from their
wanderers are full of interest and
crammed with news of the town and
country they have made their home,
and these oldsters, narrow and cir
cumscribed though their physical out
look may be, have wide fund of
knowledge, and know at secondhand
places that are but romantic names
