COMPENSATION.!
Yes, column writers are just like
other folks—-they like to get letters
too. In fact, it is the letters from
our readers which stimulate us on
to greater effort.
'Some letters are very cordial and
friendly. Others are severely and
even unfairly critical - hut friendly
or critical - they serve to inspire
and encourage your columnist.
Today, I am mindful of the very
friendly letters that find their way
to my desk. During the past year,
two readers have told us that they
clip bits from the Column for their
Scrap Book >—> typing material good
enough to be part of your scrap
hooks is the greatest honor a column
writer can achieve and is- just ’•com
pensation for the effort spent in
‘grinding out the column.’ (Wonder
if any other readers give up a tiny
space in their scrap book? Hope so?
One of our letters came from a
little Miss way -u'p in Northern Can
ada—in it she said she was twelve
years old and lives with'her grand
father who has lost his sight, He is
87.
Once each week after school, she
gets their paper from the post box,
then at home, the first thing she
does is to read to Grandpa - and,
at his request - she reads ‘our col
umn’ first.
Not ‘your column’ but ‘our col
umn’. We can have no greater tri
bute to our work than to have read
ers think of this as ‘OUR COLUMN’
Every letter we receive from our
readers influences, in some measure,
our attitude in writing this column.
But this particular letter seems to
typify all our readers and although
it is many weeks since we received
this letter, we have never written
a column since then but that it
seems I am writing a personal greet
ings to be read aloud -— way up in
Canada.
•So, if our readers will be gener
ous enough to permit my expressing
personal reactions just this once, I
would like to dedicate this column
to all those readers who have writ
ten me and particularly to my
friends, Dorothea and Grandfather
Mackelman.* * *

The Influence of a Poem
I chanced upon some tender verse,
Whose cadence rang both sweet
and true;
And somehow, after that it seemed
Within my heart a fondness grew
A fondness for the things of life,
A love of sunshine and the world,
The flowers, the trees,' the happy
birds,
The gracy fields with dew 1m-
pearled.
For I could almost smell the sweet
Scent of the clover on the hill;
Could almost hear the lowing herd,
And list the murmur of the rill.
So filled with nature was the verse,
It minded me of towering pines,
■Of lofty oaks and great gnarled
limbs,
Of wild plum trees and tangled
vines.* * *
the apostrophe before the S?”
“Put the which before the what?’
the painter questioned, courteously.
“That little curly-tailed mark af
ter that E and that T. Some call it
an apostrophe.’’
“Posserphe, is it? Well, young
feller, I seen and I make that din
gus a hundred times, and I never
knew that it had a name. Posserphe!
That’s a good one. I’ll have to
spring it on the gang. Some painters
always paint it in after the S, but
I always put it before the S, be
cause I think it looks more artistic
there. Otherwise, it don’t make no
difference where you put it."* * *

Even our most disdainful reader
would not accuse this column of
being ‘literary’, but we feel that just
one more bit of ‘fine writing’ might
slip in before we are accused of be
ing boring. Of those writers who
had something to say and said it
in a delightful way, we quote the
words of H. M. Tomlinson because
of its imagery, rhythm and spirit
ual quality. It is from his book,
“ ‘Old Junk’ ’’.—
The rain flashed across the mid
night window with a myriad feet.
There was a groan in outer dark
ness, the voice of all nameless
dreads. The nervous candle flame
shuddered by my bedside. The
groaning rose to a shriek, and the
little flame jumped in a panic, and
nearly left its white column. Out of
the corners of the room swarmed
the released shadows. Black spect
res danced in ecstasy ovei’ my bed.
I love fresh air, but I cannot allow
it to slay the shining and delicate
body of my little friend the candle
flame, the comrade who ventures
with me into the solitudes beyond
midnight.
I shut the window.
The talk of the candlepower of
an electric bulb. What do they
mean? It cannot have the faintest
glimmer of the real power of my
candle. It would be as right to
express, in the same inverted and
foolish comparison, the worth of
‘those delicate sisters, the Pleiades.’
That pinch of ^tar dust, the Pleiades
exquisitely remote in deepest night,
in the profound where light all but
fails, has not the power of a sul
phur match; yet, still apprehensive
to the mind, though tremulous on
the limit of vision, and sometimes
even vanishing, it brings into dis
tinction those distant and difficult
hints - hidden far behind all our
verified thoughts - which we rarely
properly view.’’* ♦ ♦

EASILY SETTLED
'Some controversy is going forward that may easily be settled.
The federal government is accused of using the present war to po
litical advantage, The government denies the accusation. Let the
names of those receiving public contracts be published and the vot
ers and taxpayers will judge for themselves. Public business of
this sort is all the better of being carried on openly.
NECESSITY THE STANDARD
Canada's debt is assuming, indeed it has assumed, alarming
proportions. In the prosecution of the war Canadian taxpayers are
ready and willing to assume enormous responsibilities but they are
extremely unwilling to spend their dollars for unnecessary things.
They have no cash for the grafter. They have not a penny for the
merely ornamental. They rightfully ask of their government to see
that not a copper is wasted. The man who wastes government funds
is a public enemy. Incompetency on the .part of those handling pub
lic funds is unpardonable and inexcusable. We suggest strict audit
and the publication of the names of the large spenders and pur
chasers.* * * *****
SET THEM TO WORK
Word comes that many unemployed are not down to business
though the war is on. Some folk tell us that many of this class
are not physically fit to bear arms. We are not overlooking that
fact. What we contend is that these men should be enlisted, con
scripted, if necessary, and set to work in behalf of their country
as they can do. These men are able to fetch and carry a great
deal and to do odd jobs that are of real value. While so engaged
they would be adequately fed and housed and disciplined into real
citizenship. This valuable experience they are bound to miss if
left to their own free will, the most disastrous mode of life to
which they can be exposed. ’The Canadian nation and every muni
cipality therein is loaded down with debt far beyond the point of
supporting in idleness any person, man or woman, able to serve in
a time so perilous. There are scores of ways of serving the com
monwealth, under military regulations besides carrying a rifle.•» • • tr. * * * *
CANADIANS DO NOT LIKE IT
In the great struggle for freedom now going on, Canadians are
prepared to endure any hardship, Including high prices. What
they do not like or will they long endure, is the rise in prices when
there is no call for such a rise. They are not inclined to submit
tamely when there is an uncalled for slice taken from their dollar
bill by anyone who says with a bland smile “The price has gone up
on account of the war” when the real reason is that greed has
taken advantage of the war and depends upon the patience of the
buying public to go scot free. We are making no appeal for govern
ment to interfere in this matter of prices, but we are doing what
we can to tell big business, and in some instances, little business,
that the public has been bit already and is twice shy. The man
who earns a dollar generally knows how to spend it.
THE UGLY HEADS OF PROFITEERING IS IN SIGHT
Russia has served notice on all Russian folk in Russia and else
where that it is the duty of every Russian to spread Communism,
the hateful thing that is the sworn and aetve enemy of everything
that is good. We must remind 'Russia that he is a busy man who
attends to his own business and who leaves other people’s business
alone. Especially do we remind all Russians living in Canada that
it is the Union jack that floats over Canadian parliament buildings
and court houses. Russians breathing Canadian air are required
to respect and to obey and to speak well, of Canadian laws. Rus
sians or any other folk believing or talking or teaching otherwise
have no place on Canadian soil. Further those folk who have been
saying in an easy way “There is a whole lot of good about Com
munism” should be noted and reported to the authorities. These
are not the days for academic discussions, but the days for active
service in behalf of democracy. We have no use for the straddle-
the-fencers and the facing-two-ways.********
DIFFICULT
Negotiations in behalf of peace are beset with many difficul
ties that baffle statesmen and that outwit the plain man whose one
interest is to get on with the great business of living and of getting
on with tile day’s work. For instance when an offer of peace is
made or any power offers to negotiate for peace, everyone asks two
questions. First he wants to know what the offei’ means, for he
is quite sure that whatever the offer says, it is not what it means.
That is, a nigger is looked for in every fence corner and a joker
is suspected in every proposition. Second, he who is behind the
offer. The old Romans Used to ask “Quo bono?” which being lit
erally translated is “To whom is this for a good?” In modern lang
uage, the phrase is better translated “Whose graft is this?” Some
liars are expert in the use of words. • Still other liars are expert
in securing very nice, upright people to do their lying for them. And
these are the sort who are suspected of making a great many peace
propositions. If the world had learned the wisdom of the One who
said “Let yoUr yea be yea, and your nay, nay, we could get on in
our various kinds of. individual and public bargaining. But what
is be done when man do not know what the other man means?********
A few days ago Herr Hitler made one of his fire-breathing
speeches. It was such an occasion as demanded the presence of
every high official in his realm, Unless that official had been ex
cused by the direct will of the All Highest. On such occasions the
building housing such mightiness is searched cellar to garret. The
buildings adjacent are fine-toothed combed with microscopic detail
and particularity. No chance is taken of there being anything either
in the building Where the speech making is done or within any
distance admitting of danger to the distinguished leaders. No bomb
placing on the part of an enemy is within the possibility of a shadow’
of reality. Germans are too particular and thorough for that event
uality. Further, the whole gathering would be watched with a de
tail and a carefulness that excluded all possibility of an enemy’s
working any mischief. An enemy had no chance of working harm
to the All Highest or his official followers. Since the bomb was not
in the building and not placed there by an open enemy of Hitler,
we ask who placed the bomb? Hitler knew when to leave that
building in safety, How did he know that there was danger? Why
did he abandon his usual custom of stopping on such occasions to
talk with his comrades? Why did he leave on this occasion in time
to escape destruction? Common sense gives the answer.
Any any rate Hitler is once more the idol of his people. He is
regarded as a brave man who ventures all danger for the Father-
land. He is a hero, a self-made hero, some canny folk are bound
to tell you.
“It AU Depends”
/ ~
An article I read today told the
story of a Bessarabian who occupied
a high place on the councils of the
Bolshevik government for years be
cause he could speak eight lang
uages. Now I and I am sure, you
would like to be able to speak eight
languages but I’m pretty certain
neither of us would want a place
- high or low - in the Soviet.
I know a fellow who speaks only
one language, a peculiar lang
uage which was taught him as Eng
lish, is spoken and written by him
as American but which is nothing
more or less than the illiterate jar
gon of the litterate of Broadway.
The fellow is Walter Winchell an ex
dancer of vaudeville who has devel
oped an amusing way of recording
the doings of obscure and uninter
esting people in such a way as to
make them and himself invest them
selves with a spurious glamour.
He is a funny little man and in
the course Kof. a number of years
has attached to himself an ever-wi
dening circle of informants whose
desire for dubious praise in Wn-
chell’s column act as informers.
They vie with each other to regale
the Broadway gossip with the sort
of information that is common
knowledge to those of us who live
in small communities and that is
accpted as the business of those it
most concerns instead of being ea
gerly spread about to be rolled
around malicious tongues.
What is the moral of all this? It
all depends. Perhaps it is that the
highly-priced linguist suddenly fell
with a terrible thud from his high
place - the sort of thud occasioned
by the fall of a bullet-ridden body.
Perhaps it is the man with only one
language is so nervous as the result
of years of amassing a fortune from
gossip that he can’t sleep at night,
so nervous that he never travels
without a body-guard.
Probably, though, it is just that
most of us, those linguists attain
ments reach the happy medium of -
shall we sav - a little Latin and just
enough French to help our children
with their homework, are the happy
ones.
I might as well be truthful and
admit that all the help lean give
with French home-work would never
make a linguist of anyone. In fact
about all the French I can remem- :
her consists of a few phrases that
came in handy when the government
bought iny clothes and gave me a
chance to boast ever after that I
was partly educated in France.
You know the sort of thing: “Ma
dam, voulez donnez-moi s’il vous
plait un autre tasse du the?” or:
“Je ne parle pas Francais.” There
wasn’t much of it but it was always
good for a laugh and we wanted
laughs in those days we Canadian
soldiers, and the mothers of French
soldiers.
And now it is all going on again
and it is hard for those of us who
have been secretly proud of the scars
or limps that have kept us from
being rivals of Clark Gable, Robt.
Young and Robert Taylor to realize
that we are ‘old dugouts’ whose
general relation to the scheme of
things today is in about the ratio
of a bow and arrow to a modern
anti-aircraft gun.
Things have changed. Yesterday
I talked with a friend of mine who
is Quartermaster of a battalion of
the C.A.S.F. He told me that in
this force they are actually teach
ing army cooks to cook. They did
not do that when I was a boy. In
those days they just picked out a
fat man and made him a cook, pre
sumably on the premise that a fat
man must be fond of his food.
But that doesn’t happen today.
They are even teaching them how to
make tea and allow each man three
cups a day. The tea ration is one
quarter ounce of tea per man per
day. And it you make tea correct
ly from a good blend that equals
three cups. Of course if you are
the kind who fills up the tea pot
with hot water you will get another
three cups out of it.
For some reason known only to
the powers that be the coffee ration
is much less generous. .By weight
the soldier gets a third of an ounce
of coffee - just one cup per day -
in addition to his tea. And - things
certainly have changed - if he pre
fers it today’s soldier can forego
his cup of coffee and have half an
ounce of tea per day, which, by the
way, is more than we use in our
house and we are heavy tea-drink
ers who like our tea of medium
strength.
And the choice of food they get
now! I can’t really believe the list
the Q. M. reeled off to me until I
get a chance to walk through a mess
hall some day and see for myself.
I’m willing to bet though, that when
the Orderly Officer asks the time-
honoured question, “Any, complaints
men?” he’ll get the standard ans
wer, "No, sir, but the'tea’s not like
mother makes!”
