MARGARET McAULEY Minnedosa, Manitoba McAuley? She’s the quiet one, someone said. Yes! Well you should hear her when she’s going to bed. Hi! Lanch, my jaws are all swollen, she screams down the hall.

St. Be ' omface (John Fisher, CBC, June 1) St. Boniface sits across the river from Winnipeg, and at night in Winnipeg you can hear the Angelus ringing from the bells of the great cathedral. The music floats across the Red River—a setting that inspired John Greenleaf Whittier: The voyageur smiles as he listens To the sound that grows apace: Well he knows the vesper ringing Of the bells of St. Boniface. The bells of the Roman mission That call from the turrets twain To the boatman on the river, To the hunter on the plain. 24
