Until 18 May the
McCain Gallery

Canadian jewellery and a display of costumes by students at the
NB College of Craft and Design. One striking female
costume was designed by the granddaughter of our own Joan
Bowmaster.
Today’s photographs include those fleeting tokens of spring, the
crocuses at St. Mark’s.

28 April 1940:
“Quite wonderful for the last Sunday in April & wore my summer
coat & new blue straw hat for the first time to Church at 11 am.
Only 22 there - not many for such a wonderful morning. Lois,
Myrtle W, Stella & I were all the straw hats. The rest had felts
or silk caps. Went without rubbers too. Quite a number of cars
on the road today.”
