The Canadian Ambassador
and Mrs. Heeney gave a birth
day party for Queen Eliza
beth II last night, and while
the Queen didn't come, close
to 1000 others did.
To handle this crowd. mem
bers of the embassy staff were
organized into q crack hoSpi-
tality crew, with q string Of
men on the sidewalk opening
car doors, two men seated at
the entrance operating as a
dispatch service for chauf-
feur-driven limousines, two
men inside announcing and
six or more waiting just be-
yond the receiving line to
usher guests into the garden.
For Canadian flavor, q red
coated "Mountie" stood at at
tention in the main hall, and
Canadian Club - "our liquid
advertisement" a staff mem
ber called twas served at
the bar.
The Heeneys marked Queen
Elizabeth'S birthday on the
date that was actually Queen
Victoria's birthday, q choice
that threw some Of the guests
into confusion. Even an en-
bassy officer thought the
party honored the latter.
But a spokesman explained:
Queen Elizabeth's birthday,
officially observed by Great
Britain and its embassies
sometime early in June, may
be celebrated by the other
Commonwealth countries on
any date Of their choosing.
May "a seemed a good day,
since Queen Victoria's birth
day, or the closest Monday
thereto, Is always celebrated
In Canada as Q national hoh-
day anyway (not THE ma
tional holiday which is Do
minion Day. July -.
Actually" the spokesman
summed up, 'it's Just q good
excuse for q garden party"
IT WAS A NICE evening
to be outside and guests
found dozens Of flowers to
admire-iris, pansies, petu-
MAS, sweet william, Inca,
SALIVA, day lilies, ageratum
and so on, blooming along
the borders Of the rich green
lawn.
Lawn parties do present q
problem to women In high,
narrow heels. As the heels
sink into the earth, the lady
finds herself chatting from q
slanty position. Mrs. r. A.
Garuuharson, wife Of the
embassy's Minister Counselor,
had an Inspiration: ''If We
can get all the women to face

said, they'll sink to q COM

that would have left the fiat

slant, looking UP the slope at
the ladies. Oh, well.

happened here in Prince Edward-for
all it's critical significance for you-iS
but an element of grand design. Those
who would change your method Of school
ing your children would also change you
TOTALLY: likewise they would change
our nation. TOTALLY: They are at work
on thousand fronts. not one.
Motive For Attack
Now, why was Prince Edward
struck? OF all America, why was this
quiet rural community singled out? Who
did it and what was the motive for, the
attack?
Part of the answer is simple.
Prince Edward was chosen, after due
elaboration, because of its superficial
appearance. You are peaceful people,
with patina of culture more than two
centuries old. You are neither rich nor
poor, nor any special thing except Vir-
ginians; you are as normally American
as Indian summer. given to church go

That is why Prince Edward was
chosen. For a number Of reasons, they
believed you could be had. They thought
you were sleeping so they tried to put
their hand in your pocket
That was their first mistake

have recalled to them that the quiet
people Of Prince Edward are the spirit

he assessed the mettle of the
people who had brought the
school to fruition, declaring:
The road has not been easy
and today we find ourselves at
the climax of our campaign.
Should we quit now and lose all
that for which we have fought?
This might be the easy way but
the people of Prince Edward are
not seeking the easy road. We
