Notices, Empire Day Movement. EMPIRE DAY, 1956. Non-Party Non-Nectarian Non-Racial A Message from THE LORD MILVERTON, G.C.M.G., Governor and Commander- in-Chief, Nigeria. 1948—1947 Last year this Message came to you from Lord GOWRIE, our late Presi- dent, who died on 2nd May, shortly before Empire Day. In him we lost aman who had spent a full life in public service of all kinds. He never spared himself in anything that would foster or strengthen the unity of the Commonwealth and, to that end, he always took the keenest interest in the young people of all its component nations. This year I have been asked, as one of your Vice-Presidents, to fill a temporary gap before the appoint- ment of our new President. I am particularly pleased that I should be sending you the Empire Day Message this year, so recently made significant by Her Majesty’s visit to Nigeria. I can readily visualise the enthusiastic and sponta- neous welcome given to Her Majesty everywhere in that vast country where so many tribal communities combine to make a miniature Com- monwealth of their own. It inspired great happiness to read of the welcome given by old and young alike to demonstrate their loyalty and affection for their Queen —and ours. This, like her Majesty’s great journey two years ago to many of her cther lands, shows how strong are the ties which unite us in com- mon support of all that makes for greater human happiness. Many of us have memories of other lands in which we have lived and worked and on this day, especially and consciously, our thoughts are of them and of those friends whose lives we shared for a while. Within our scattered family we have our difficulties and troubles, but this is a day in our busy lives when we pause to think of those great and gentle people of many races whose lives and work have added, /and will continue . LXXALYV. THE LEEWARD IS GAZETTE. Bubdlished by Authority, “-- to add, something more to the honourable record of the Common- wealth and Empire. We try to cele- brate this day in many simple and happy ways. Our Movement gives annual ex- pression on the 24th May to our faith in what the Commonwealth and Empire stands for—its activities in the maintenance of peace and good- will amongst men and the further- ance of world prosperity. This voluntary association of nations is a living experiment in which all can play a useful part, and my hope is that many adventurous young people will make friendships with others overseas, and so pour the ever-fresh spirit of adventure and enterprise into the channels of public service. May God grant His blessing to us all, MILVERTON.
