Percy and Edith were hoping that John would have visited them the 24th May 1904. This was the first Empire Day to be celebrated in the United Kingdom. Since 1958 the 24th May has been celebrated as Commonwealth Day. 24th May 1904 was the Tuesday that followed the Whit Monday Bank Holiday.
The 4 picture post cards presented weekly.... with idle moments look as though they were on a single sheet that was perforated to allow each card to be torn off.
