JOHNSON Canadian Press Staff Wrltr LONDON W An Insight lntoi the arduous duties of royalty) and their untiring service to thcj Commonwealth is given in a new book, "The Roya! Family," (Od-j hams Press) illustrated and pub-J lished in aid of King George's, Jubilee Fund. The author of the volume Is ; Dermot Morrah, editor or the( "Round Table," and proceeds', will be tlevoted i to the advance-1 ger generation. Touching briefly on the visit of the King and Queen to Canada ... ..... ..... .c.,:., tU their landing at Wolfe s Cove' where English troops had scaled the ramparts to the Plains of Abraham nearly 200 years before. "It was a fitting sign of the reconciliation of the centuries," he writes, "that the first appear 1C: ance of an English King in the new world should be on the historic ground of these battles long ago, and that not only Mr. Mackenzie King (the late prime minister but a French-Canadian Senator, with the cry of 'Vive le Roi,' should bid them welcome to their loyal city of Quebec." MERRY MARGARET In relating some amusing experiences in the royal household, the author underscores the wit of Princess Margaret. On one occasion some years ago, after the National Anthem had just been played, she ran to the King and asked: Papa, do you sing God save my precious me " Another time, but on a more serious occasion, Princess Elizabeth asked for certain ideas to be incorporated in a speech she 11: was 10 oeiiver on ner zist mrtn- : n uay. Liuier, a rouri omciai snow-ad her a draft of the speech and after she had read it asked what she thought of It. "Why, it made me cry," she replied. "Good " said the official. "It will make 200.000,000 other people cry too. That is what we want. This was the speech in which i i he Prlniofts dedicated her life to the service of the people of j the Commonwealth. I This is how the author des-! cribes an average day put in by the sovereign, apart from special functions of state: Every morning the King listens to the 8 a.m. radio news. He opens his own letters while having breakfast from a tray In his room. When parliament is sitting, breakfast time is also occu pied in reading summaries of the previous day's debates. The Kins J then looks over al 1 the national daily papers. BUSY DAYS At 10:15 a.m. he is at his desk and receives his principal private secretary, followed by a session of reading and checking reports and documents from depart ments of state or from governments of the Commonwealth nations. It is nearly noon before he can find time to receive any visitor;: from outside the palace. In tlva afternoon, if nubile en gagements permit, the Kingi reads cabinet papers and attends to other urgent business. At 5.20 o.m. on Tuesdays he has a regu lar conference with the prime minister. Often when unforseen developments upset time-tables and arrangements, it may mean over-lime work far into the night. 'This program," Mr. Morrah says, "has to be carried through. against a background of routine work behind the scenes which in itself would fully occupy the time of most private subjects." The Queen's daily routine runs on parallel lines, except that she translates it into the feminine gender. But Mr. Morrah has this to TV Gmrp Mitfrifw "Thanks very much young In a buying With seasonal lcstivitics over and the year 1950 tended, members of the Canadian Army look back on what proved to be the busiest twelve months' ever encountered in peactime. Their most important job was the raising of a force for service under United Nations command. In the short space of four months a 10,000 man brigade was recruited, trained, and sent to the United States aud Korea where they are now undergoing advanced battle training. Early in the year more than 5,000 Canadian and U.S. troops and airmen combined to carry out Exercise Sweetbriar along the Alaska Highway system. During May, over 4,000 active and reserve force troops from across Canada were sent to the Red River Valley to fight the rampaging Manitoba flood waters. Military camps across Canada were kept busy during the summer months with an influx of nearly 22,000 personnel for annual training. They were members o the Reserve Forces, Royal Canadian Army Cadet Corps, and the Canadian Officer Training Corps.

Mr. Dale planned to make Just this one call and pass thereafter. But Mr. Masters did raise the spades and the opponents promptly got into three no trump. Mr. Dale felt there were two Important points to consider. First, a fine player-like Mr. Champion probably knew what he was doing in pushing for the no trump game, and he is a practically flawless dummy player. Second, alter Mrs. Keen bid three no trump, Mr. Masters had a chance to double and didn't. Thl.s undoubtedly meant that his raise was somewhat on the distributional side and he was leaving it up to Mr. Dale to decide whether to try and defeat the'no trump contract or sacri-lice at four spades. Mr. Dale's hand was of the aggressive type and not so good for defensive purpose. All In all he decided the enemy could make three no trump and so he Business and A. P. GARDNER & CO.
