Insurance

For the ilomebwrier: Today, insurance is
making it passible far. =ore Canadian lentil-
lies than ever before to enjoy the security of
home ownership.
Without the protection of insurance against
fire and other disasters, probably few of to-
day's new homes could ever have been
started. Xnowledge that a home and its
contents are adequately insured against
sudden loss replaces worry with Peace of
Mind.
Last year, the companies writing fire, auto-
mobile and casualty insurance paid out more
than 500 Million Dollars in claims atross

Goiedge does this in her latest
novel and the• reader is el-
most unaware of the fact. Her
power's of description; with
words and phrases chosen so
carefully, lure the reader on
to 'the point where the story
begins merelel, in 1870, in a
cathedral city in the Fen coun-
try of England. The history of
the building and. development
of the Cathedral of Saint Mich-
ael and All Angels has bad a
profound effect on each sitece-
Kling generation.
Adam Ayseoligh, 'the Dean
of the Cathedral when the st-
ory opens, was formidable to
most people, relentless in' the
pursuit of the duties pertain-
ing to his office, bat utterly
careless in the, care of his
beautiful watch. Isaac Pea-
body, the shy and talented
clockmaker is unreasonably
terrified of the huge dark cathe
edral, and fearful of his sister,
Emma, who is dour and un-
forgiving.
Theee are young people in
the story, Polly, the orphan
maid of all work liln the Pea-
body household and Job, the
orphan apprenticed to the fish
dealer. The cheerful practical-
ness of Polly helps her to meet
her own and the problems of
other people with a sturdy
faith. The ,glimmering of an
artistic nature and an' apprec-
iation of 'beautiful things will
surely lift Job above his sor-
did surroundings.
Mary Montague, although
confined to the limits of 'a
wheelchair is a strong force
for good in the community. She
had not always felt • cheerful
and joy-giving. It had taken
the misery of being left out of
the young People's activities,
the loss of a dearly loved br-
other, before she struggled to
the solution of her problem.
Have many tripped' them-
selves lately over their nat-
ional gray beards? Professor
Frank Underhill, noted Canad-
ian historian, told a panel of
intellectuals on a nationwide
televised program recently that
"Canada was born old". If this
is "The Price of Being Can-
adian", as the show was cal-
led, 'then I had better pack
away all my enthusiasms and
those experts, who are always
excusing Canada her various
faults "because the country is
so young", had better put away
their safety pins and bibs and
get out a few crutches and
wheel chairs to bolster our
national pride. Thank heaven,
mine doesn't bruise easily.
I could appreciate poet Irv-
ing Layton making one remark
about Canadians, "being a peo-
ple with middle class values,
chiefly interested in making
money". Mr. Layton has a un-
ique sarcasm, •which is a con-
ceit he, likes to flaunt publicly,
hoping to raise a few eye-
brows. In fact, if it hadn't been
for author Hugh. MacLennan,
who came up with the rouser,
"There has been a .peocligious
change in the spirits of Canada
since 1940. I' am a citizen of
no mean country," I might
have wondered, why we struggle
so hard to promote this land
or even try and create abroad
an image of vitality and pat-
riotic verve.
I am told a country is judg-
ed by the stature of its citi-
zens, who collectively are Mr,
and Mrs. John Doe, living 'a
not too spectacular life in 'its'
suburbs. I met one the other
day, He is an editor and col-
umnist, sometimes concerned a-
bout the continual rat race of
production, but actually living
a full and satisfying life while
making a contribution as well,
to the local scene.
It was durin one of my
trips by rain to Montreal that
I met Archie Duffle. I had
produced a piece of copy for
a forthcoming issue of the
(INTR's e mp loye e magazine,
"Keeping Track", and wanted
to discuss its context with the
editor.
He was a large man with a
scholarly stoop, sitting behind
a wooden desk almost too tidy
for any editor. His kind of rath-
er worried eyes roved restless-
ly behind rimmed glasses and a
thatch of quite blonde curly
hair bounced on his brow as
he ejaculated. We were in the
midst of a discussion, when he

stood up and announced he
was taking me to his home for
dinner.
I cannot truthfully say he
shed his editorial responsibilit-
ies as the clock struck five.
Archie Duffle lives his job
24 hours of every day. But in
his home he is an entirely
different personality from the
enquiring editor and humorous
weekly newspaper columnist.
We drove 'through the streets
of St. Lambert with the win-
dows of the bus frosted over
and homeward bound passen-
gers stomping their feet to
keep their circulation from
congealing. All the way Archie
told me about his rose garden,
naming its hundred odd var-
ieties. Every once in a while
he would lean. over me, scrape
a little frost from the window
of the bus and worry about
whether those roses could st-
and such a stretch of severe
weather.
When, we arrived we were
greeted by the aroma of fresh-
ly baked bread and broiled
steak, the welcome screech of
a small budgie and Archie's
glamorous auburn-haired wife.
The editor donned a comfort-
able cardigan, took the budgie
from the cage and from then
until I left later in the even-
ing, they were inseparable.
The budgie hung upside down
on the temple bars of Archie's
glasses, perched on his curly
mop, chewed his earlobe and
chattered. When I became ab-
solutely fascinated by such de-
votion, the bird made a dive
for my hair and cluck bumps,
crept along my arms, just as
they used to do when bats
frightened me by divebombing
my •august person on sultry
summer evenings.
Archie Duffle is. a collector.
In beautifully constructed cas-
es Which he made in the rec-
reation room of his' home are
literally thousands of sea
shells, many of them rare and
valuable. He is also an artisan
of no mean accomplishment.
For years he has been making
picture frames' for his own
home and those of neighbours
and friends. His library is a
revelation of nature study
books, creative accomplish-
ments of the world's foremost
humourists, the classics and old
tomes, such as the minutes of
a hundred-year-old society wh-
ose history has intrigued him.
His record library would de-
light a 13ernstein, though his
taste for more complex orch-
estrations might surprise a
More conservative lover of
good music.
This man is a Canadian. Are
his values middle class? 3/Lo-
ney, I don't doubt, he has need
of! who hasn't? But his assess-
ment, I believe, of what he
wants out of life has many
more worthwhile facets than a
monetary scale of achieve-
ment. Surely Canada will nev-
er be "old" as long as there
are Archie Duffles, with full
creative lives, 'residing in small
homes on the outskirts Of big,
bustling Canadian cities.
