Men have always loved to
speak or write'of life as a jour
ney. It is an apt .metaphor,
especially dear to those who pon7
der much on the unevenness of
the way and are oft-times wear
ied with the journey. Among the
best gifts* of a gbod God are
what someone calls “the angels
of our pilgrimage”: those who,
in season and out of season, have
dulled for us the keen edge of
sorrow and have made life’s joys
richer because they shared them
with us.
•One who had suffered many
reverses wrote that, great as
these set-backs had been, they
were compensated .for by the re
vealing of so many disinterested
■friendships. “When you have
neither money , nor hospitality,
nor time, nor service of any kind
to offer your friends, when all
the favors and advantages are
on their side, you are sure of
pure, unalloyed, genuine affec
tion. . , 'It was when I was very
poor, badly dressed, tired and
often sad, that dear friends came
to me and became part of my
life.”
When that strange poetic gen
ius, Francis Thompson, lived his
unusual life in London, he form
ed a friendship with a woman,
the • story of whose disinterested
devotion of him is tender and
pathetic. He became so reduced
in circumstances that he often
slept in arches or huddled on a
bench by the river Thames. What
he saw and heard made him
heartsick yet he did not have it
in him to despise
whose obscenity of
thought disgusted
times li e invested
that brought him a
from his money and
to hold a horse’s head for a few
coppers.
It was then that there came
to him an angel of his pilgrim
age. She was like himself, one
of the poorest of the poor —-
driftwood hurried along by the
stream. She knew the world bet
ter than the poet did, especially
its more sinister side, but
though she was without his
ture and spiritual insight,
seiised his terrific loneliness
realized how unfitted Was
supersensitive soul for the rough
places of the journey. She gave
him such pure friendship as she
had probably never given anyone
before; nursed him in, his sick
ness and cheered him in hours
of lonliness. When better days
came for him she passed out of
his life and although he sought
for her everywhere he could
think of, he never saw her again.
As I Write 1 have before me
two glowing tributes to mother
hood, one from the Canadian
novelist Dr. Chas. Gordon (Ralph
Conner); the Other by the Aust
ralian essayist, Frank H. Bore-
ham. Dr. Gordon’s mother was
the wife of a pioneer minister in
Ontario when conditions of
travelling—of life in general—-
Were severe in the extreme, in
his autobiography Dr. Gordon ro-
turned again and again to the
subject of his mother’s amazing
courage and her -gracious influ
ence over his life. “It is only fair
to shy that the inspiration tor
Whatever small service I have
done for my fellowmen came
from my dear mother, it is forty-
six years since I saw her close

the last time and watched the
