3) We live in deeds, not years; in thoughts, not breaths; In feelings, not
in figures on a dial. We should count time by heart-throbs; he must live,
Who thinks most, feels the noblest, acts the best ~ Bailey. Life is a
little gleam of time between two eternities ~ Carlyle
4) Any Wife to Her Husband by Carol Haynes ~ Let us be guests in one
another's house, With deferential "No" - and courteous "Yes"; Let us take
care to hide our foolish moods, Behind a certain show of cheerfulness.
Let us avoid all sullen silences; We should find fresh and sprightly things
to say - I must be fearful lest you find me dull, And you must dread to bore
me any way. Let us knock gently at each other's heart, Glad of a
chance to look within - and yet, Let us remember that to force one's way, Is
the unpardoned breach of etiquette. So shall I be the hostess - you,
the host, Until all need for entertainment ends. We shall be lovers when the
last door shuts . . . But what is better still - we shall be friends.

1) "Tear" in Princess Elizabeth's Eye. Jubilee Stamp Novelty. Canadian
Forgers Busy. Ottawa, Saturday - Attempts are being made to forge a "tear"
on the Princess Elizabeth one-cent postage stamp issued in Canada in
celebration of the King's Silver Jubilee, according to the Post Office
Authorities in Ottawa. Among philatelists this stamp is known as the
"Weeping Princess" because of a small imperfection underneath Princess
Elizabeth's right eye, which resembles a tear. The "tear" (says Reuter)
appears only on one stamp in certain sheets issued by the Post Office - the
left stamp in the third row from the top. The "Weeping Princess" has become
a rarity among stamp collectors and is now quite valuable, so forgers are
giving Princess Elizabeth bogus tears and selling the stamps. The forgers
are simply inking in a spot of green under the Princess's eye, but the
forgeries can be easily detected by experts.
2) Mussolini and Boy Fascists. Partial "Mobilisation. 1925 Speech Repeated.
3) City Lamps. How proud am I to stand alone Upon the Cavehill's heights,
And gaze with awe upon my own Belov'd city's lights. Each lamp is like
a star to me, So beautiful they shine; No fairy lamps could ever be More
brilliant than thine. I love the jewelled points that gleam Across the
dusky space, And lovingly in joy I seem Thy sacred form to trace. Oh,
city lamps, shine on, shine on! Thy spirit cannot die Whilst we, thy sons,
may look upon Such splendid majesty. Thomas Carnduff (Belfast
Shipyard)
4) ......The organist of Ballysillan, Mr. Edward Hogg, may be complimented
upon the efficient manner in which the musical portion of the service was
rendered. - Welsh Bride Battered. Neighbours Hand Over Husband. A woman who
recently returned from her honeymoon to Pentrepoeth, near Llanelly, was
found in bed with her throat cut and her head badly battered. Her husband,
Rees Thomas, an elderly man, has been arrested on charge of attempted
murder. He appeared in court and was formally remanded. The woman was taken
to hospital in the police ambulance, and is in a critical condition.

1) 21st July 1943 Postmark Belfast to Master Brian Lilley, Seaview,
Ballywhiskin, Millisle - 115 Malone Avenue. Dear Brian, Congratulations, We
are very pleased indeed about your Scholarship, the first of many I hope.
Are Kathleen & you having a good time? The weather is perfect for a holiday.
The enclosed is to pay for your next sweet ration & this letter is not to be
replied to, I shall see you soon in Malone Avenue. No one should have
letters to write when they are on holidays! Tell Mummy I'm glad she is
having a good time. At the moment I'm cooking dinner & writing this on my
knee. Tomorrow I go to the country for a few days. For three whole days we
have had all meals, except breakfast, served in the garden. Isn't that a
good weather record for the North of Ireland? Love & good wishes to all 4.
Yours Sincerely Susan Wilson

let you know we are all well and to express the wish that you and yours are

scarce. I guess you got some practice in Fire Warden work? We think Hitler
is on the skids now. Love to all. Johnnie Smiley or Emily?
