THE CI NTQN NEW ERA,
CAPT. C. L JEAKINS MADE
MOST THRILLING SPEECH'
•
AT KIWANIS CONV:ENTIOW"
By Jack Rethea, in Birpmingham, (Al.)a
Ledger
Witli tease throats and tear -dimmed
eyes, delegates to the international Ki-
wanis convention Tuesday afternoon
(May 20) caught a glimpse of the
pathos of the war and the lucredible
heroism of this men who Bled in de-
fense of civilization,
Called upon unexpectedly to fill out
the unexpired time allotted to the
Canadian „delegation, Capt. C. B
Jenkins, 58th 13atatalion, Canadian Ex-
peditionery Force, roused his hearers
to wild eslhusiasin and the deeper
tribute of unstirring silence. ,
It was a dramatic moment, by an
odds the most thrilling of the conven-
tion. And. the story Capt. Jeakins
told was not ane of della:See of death
or thrilling heroics, but it Illustrated
as nothing else would have done the
spirit, as the said, of the Canadian and
American soldiers,
"Tihe 58th Battalion landed at
Havre after a rough crossing of the
Channel in an east wind that cut us
to the bone," he said. "When we pa-
raded on the wharf a snow -storm be-
gan and soon we were wet to the skin
and half -frozen. An officer told us we
were to be sent to 'a rest camp and
visions of warmth and—s place to lie
clown filled odr minds. Anything to
get out of the pbitter cold and into dry
clothing.
THE PEST CAMP
"They marched us up a 1hill about
six miles and we came to an open
field, a foot deep in slush and water,
with the snow still falling. • We had
no great coats and no •dry clothing.
An officer came back and asked us
who we were, and we answered.
"Well," he replied, swinging an arm
toward the field, 'there's your rest
camps
"As the men stood there in the
falling snow, grimly bidding fare-
well to all- thoughts of rest, a lad in
the front ranks struck up that song
that you sang to -day, and one by .one
the battalion joined in. 1 can't sing
that song now. It brings a lump in
my throat and l think of those lads
who sang that morning, so many now
sleeping in Flanders Fields. The
song? It - was 'Pack Up Your
Troubles in Your Old! Kit Bag sand
Smile, Smile, Smile'."
As one man the convention arose
and the famous marching song of
the soldiers of the two continents
thundered out. British and American
flags were paraded through the hall
and Capt. Jeakins, grasping both
the Stars and Stripes and the Union
Jack, held them aloft.
SPIRIT OF FIGHTERS.
"That was the spirit of the then
who died over there," 'Capt. Jeakins
continued when the uproar had sub-
sided. "That is the spirit they brought
back with them. And that is the
spirit we must have in solving the
problems of reconstruction. That is
the spirit with which we must meet in
combating the new wave of levity
which is termed 'Bolshevism' lest
there be an Armagedon after the war
that will pale into insignificance - the
'Amagedon' of the war.
"For almost four years the world
was in a condition 'of unnatural de-
pression, and suddenly on November
11, 1918, the world reverted to an
equally unnatural' condition of levity
—I use the terns in its broader sense
e—and this levity has been' turned
'Bolshevism.' It is -5 menace and one
that must be met fairly." '
Capt. Jeakins is an extremely in-
teresting man; He went over in 1915
and served through the campaigns,
suffering shell -shock In the latter and
slightly gassed- in the Ypres salient.
He was in the line when the first gas
clouds swept over the Canadians On
the Yser. He is taciturn regarding
his war experiences, preferring to
look to the future rather than the
past.
Yesterday was his birthday; he has
not spent a birthday at his home since
1914, but declared yesterday after-
noon that he had never spent a better
one than that yesterday.
Last week Capt. Jeakins was elect-
ed president of the Great War Vet=
erans' Association of Ontario- at a con-
vention at Windsor. This Is an or-
ganization of returned service men
with a membership of over 250,000.
CANADA FIGHTS BOLSHEVISM.
"Undoubtedly Bolshevism is a men-
ace," he told a Ledger reporter after
his appearance before the convention,
"and Canada is taking steps to combat
it. The greatest storm door for Bol-
shevism is a contented returned sol-
diery. Canada has recognized this
and is taking steps to meet it
"When a Canadian soldier is re-
leased from service he is given 538
witls which to purchase an outfit of
civilian clothing. In addition, all When
who have been in the service three
years and over are given a bolus of
5600, and shorter term men a gradu-
ated 'amount.
"in the shatter of pensions, .tihe Do-
minion Government has been very lib-
eral. Men totally disabled are given
an annual pension of 5600 for life,
The widow of a soldier gets 5480 with
596 per year for each •child. Men
who have been partially disabled are
similarly cared for and nothing is lett
undone to insure their fair treatment.
"Organizations of returned soldiers
has been recognized in Canada, aisd
the leading nsen of.'the Dominion have
taken hold..; We have' three members
of our orgalhiaation in the cabinet. The
War Vetergns'• Assodiation has a very
definite program` of"legiilation, but a-
bove 110 it intends -to see that tine re-
turned`soldier. gets fair -play and justice,
'Sp*ealting ..of •Bolshevism, It seems
to ire—that too great latitude is given
the radicals, both by your government
and mine, Why New York and 1.lall-
fax•'should be open to these men
when the governments ate familiar
with their character is a mystery
They should be kept out."
TRIBUTE TO AMERICA.
In his speech before the convention',
Capt, Jeakins paid a feeling tribute'
to the part America Inas played in the
war and t0 the spirit of our soldiers.
"But, gentlemen, the highest pin-
nacle of glory in this war has been'
attained by the Frencis," he declared,
,"And it was attained at Verdun. You
civilians doubtless know of the strain
wilt's which the world watched the
battle, but you know nothing of the
anxiety felt I i the rer

almost. And then one morning came
that glorious mesage that did more
than any one thing to reanimate the
spirit of the Allies "Its ne passeront

did not, •huyd the civilization of the
world was preserved.

ing that brought back memories, some

that with a jaunty air at first and then
almost overnight the song changed,
there was a sadder, grander timbre,
and the song . changed to tate rolling
heart call of "There's a hong, Long
Trail,' It was •a long, Hang trail, but
they breasted it with the same spirit
they are facing the vicissitudes of re-
construction,"
