Gardiner, of Kirkton, has been appointed minister of highways and minis- ter in charge of the Bureau of Labor and Industries in the new Saskatchewan Cabinet. Hon. James Garfield Gardiner is one of "Huron's Old Boys" of whom we, as a community are justly proud, and history but repeats itself in this young man, which goes to show what a boy can make of himself when he sets his face in the right direction, backed up by ambition, energy, per- severance and above all a character of the highest moral standard, keen to discern between right and wrong, justice and injustice. Of such qual- ities he was richly endowed. Mr. Gardiner is the son of Mr. and Mrs. J. C. Gardiner, of Kirkton, and was born at Farquhar 38 years ago. He received his public school educa- tion at the Thames Road school. At the age of 14 he engaged to work for a farmer for eight months for the sunt of $48 and when his contract was completed he had the satisfac- tion of knowing that he had not fool- ishly his wages on trifles, as ishly g he had to his credit almost the full amount of his earnings. At the age of 17 years he went west, locating at Clearwater, Man., where he work- ed to obtain the funds to educate himself for a public school teacher. He taught for three years. At the expiration of this period he entered the Manitoba College, Winnipeg, and during his course there his great de- bating abilities wese recognized, as the following taken from one of the newspapers at that time will show. The item appeared under the head of ".Leader of Manitoba Team": "James Gardiner, the leader of the Manitoba debating, is in his final year arts at Manitoba college and has always been prominent in debating circles. In 1908 he made liis first appear- ance In the regular faller collegiate debates and on that ocasion showed such a grasp of the question under discussion—the government owner- ship of elevators—that he was pro- moted to the leadership of an impor- tant intercollegiate debate the fal- lowing year, which was won and now in his final year he is representing his college on the international team, the greatest debating honor in local college circles. Last year 1VIr. Gar- diner won the gold Medal for ora- . tory presented by the college board. As a speaker he 'is forceful and in- teresting with an earnestness and . conviction that is effective with the lodges and audience for he has not; lost a debate yet and he has been in many.,` Mr. Gardiner is a most ardent ad- vocate of temperance, working inees- Zwicker, Crediton GENERAL MERCHANT, GRAIN AND SEEDS We offer a specially selected stock of Government tested Seeds RED CLOVER, ALSIKP, YELLOW AND WHITE BLOSSOM SWEET CLOVER TIMOTHY SEED EXTRA NO. 1 FOR PURITY GOLDEN MULLETT, KENTUCKY Y BLUE GRASS ORCHARD GRASS, ETC.

J. Heaman „Save surface and You salt, santly towards this end as the fol- lowing taken from another newspa- per shows: "Mr. Gardiner in his us- ual energetic and effective manner attacked political corruption. After showing that it was confined to no one country, form of government or party, he pointed out the relation that exists between the private mem- bers and the government, and be- tween the electorate and the private members for the actions of the gov- ernment and the responsibility of the electorate for the type of men they send to the legislature was emphas- ized in its relation to corruption. But said the speaker, there must be two conditions satisfied before you can have corruption. There must be the individual organization or corpora- tion interested in corrupting and the government, members or electorate, capable of being corrupted. In Do- minion matters we have had the vested interests, and in provincial matters, the liquor interests influenc- ing elections, members and govern- ments. If there had been no Scott Liquor Legislation there would be no Bradshaw -Brunner liquor charges, but that organization would still have been using its influence to elect government supporters to the legis- lature and to control their actions when once they were elected. The honor is due not to Bradshaw for having cleared our province of this influence but to the courageous ac- tion of the Scott Government." Tn an article "1Vho's Who in the new Cabinet„„ the Regina Leader of April 6th, says : James Garfield Gardiner, minister of highways and minister in charge of the Bureau of Labor and Indus- tries,was born near Exeter, in. Huron County, Ontario, of Scottish -Cana- dian parents, in the year 1883.

Blass and intercollegiate debates, and in his senior year led the 'University of Manitoba debating teain in the in- ternational debate against the Uni- versity of Dakota. In his third year he won the gold medal in the orator- ial contest and at the end of his tern delivered the valedictory ad- dress of the year.

Since 1917 Mr. Gardiner has been farming where he is now living about three miles west of Lemberg. In Church natters he was an, elder in the Presbyterian church until the Union church was formed, and is now an elder in that church and the general secretary of the Union churches of the three western prov- inces.
