Nearer to the oys
An Interview with Ralph Connor
Bee PETER
M,AieT5 UI)
When I was told that if I went to a
certain office at a certain hour, I would
have the pleasure of meeting the Rev,
Charles W, Gordon (Ralph Connor), I
accepted with joy. I wanted to meet
him for two reasons. I wanted to meet
him because he is our most distinguished
Canadian novelist, and also because in
m Y bo ho d I wriggled on hard,n- 9 ggu
Y
coinpromising benches, listening to the
same stern ministers that he "sat
under," I had listened to them in both
Gaelic and English, and wondered if he
would have a fellow -feeling for one who
had gone through the same boyish ex-
periences. Asmyeagernesshadbrought
me early to the piece of appointment, I
had a few minutes to wait, and fell to
wondering what he would be like, Un-
consciously I associated him with those
old-time Free Kirk ministers and won-
dered if he would be like the Rev. John
Ross, of Brucefield, or the Rev. Lachlan
MacPherson, of East Williams. So
my surprise was complete when a brisk
man in khaki uniform stepped into the
room. Ile did not look enough like
those old ministers to make my heart
come into my mouth with terror as I
faced him. Neither did he look enough
like a military martinet to make me
click my heels together and come to
"attention." And there was absolutely
nothing to suggest the producer of "best
sellers." It took less than a minute to
discover that "Ralph Connor" is, first
of all, a fellow -human being, who is ready
to take a glance at anything from any
man's point of view.
A reference to the old ministers gave
us an instant point of contact, and with
much laughter—kindly and reverent—
but still laughter—we compared notes
and exchanged reminiscences of the good
men who made the Scotch settlements
where we had both been brought up, the
places of stern discipline we remembered
so well. The hour that had been prom-
ised to me was gone and part of another
hour with it, before I remembered that
the man who arranged the meeting had
not done it out of pure kindness. He
wanted me to interview Ralph Connor
about the war work of the Y.M,C,A.
By the time I remembered my duty we
had reached a point where I felt that I
could ask him about it from a rather
daring point of view. I began with a
straight question:
"What do you think of the work of
the Y.M.C.A. in the war?"
He hunched his shoulders slightly and
slipped down a trifle in his chair, From
the expression on his face I was afraid
that he was going to offer an unfavor-
able critic -Mtn. But his answer made it
clear that that was not what disturbed
him:
"It is doing a tut of work that the
church should be doing."
Now you can understand why my
question Caused Min a shade of discom-
fort, The minister in }tiro—a touch of
the old Free Kirk spiritual guide that
made him feel the responsibilities of lits
calling—made hien regret to confess that
a purely lay institution is carrying prac-
tical Christianity to a point that ie 111
yet impossible for the churches, -"heat-
ing them to it," as the soldier boys
would say.
"Don't misunderstand ins," be pro-
tested. "The churches and their chap-
lains are doing a wonderful work, but
the Y,M,C.A„ being without a propa-
ganda or dogmas, is ebbe to adapt itself
instantly to any needs that may arise,
either at the battle -front or wherever
the boys may be located. It meets
them at all hours and in all places with
a spirit of good cheer, comfort and help-
fulness,"
"Then you are of the opinion that the
man who supports the war work of his
church is not doing all he can to help
the boys?"
"Assuredly. The Y.Al.C.A. is able
to go a little farther. Though the work
of the church maybe nearer to the 1,11.111
of whet levant to see none, the Y,1i. C.A,
gets neater to the boys,"
That struck ne IN n very iniportnnt
point, and T decided to 51 1 vtien him
from an angle that might net he pleusing
t0 a clergyman.-
„You know," I uu.innet .1, in a split
of lielf coufes:.ien, 'that then are it lot
of boys •o ,
who tt l 1 n
l l � hltlr
Y 1. linin k
et a Y,M.C,A. 'It home h, .ort of
sissifcd institution, tee,_ ,111 1.1:e 11or re
of young men of ths7 w :lJ wee like to
effect a sort of uta ]y t,s;:h.; :,. Does
tile'Y M C.A, get near to thele?"
"Yes. 3nc helpfulness of the 'Y..14L;
High Command had something of the
attitude you suggest. But whenever
there was anything to be done to help
the boys tke Y.M,C.A. was there to do
it and do it well. By its spirit of un-
assuming helpfulness tke Y.M.C.A. has
won the hearts of both the officers and
sten, no matter what their church con-
nections niay or r maynot be. It
gives and it does not ask anything in
return. Its sole reward is that it helps
freely all who need help. The thing to
emphasize about its work is that it
gives—it is an organized spirit of giving,
and it gives without a string to the
giving."
RALPH CONNOR
"But I er e
1 nea
h r comments, not
always friendly—about the prices that
the Y.M.C,A, charges for some of its
supplies."
"Such comments have le justification.
The prices are as near right as they eau
be made. If there is tiny profit on the
sales to the boys in the camps or back
of the lines, every cent of it goes to pro-
vide things free—absolutely free—to
those wino are in the front line trenches.
As a matter of fact, the canteens and
other organizations under the cement of
the churches and chaplains have pretty
100511the
same a
t schedule of prices as the
Y.bLC.A."
I could not suppress a smile et find-
ing my ancient enemy the trust or
"Gentleman's Agreement" appearing in
so admirable a form. But I made 00
eonutient. Instead, I :asked a conclud-
ing question:
'That I may tell the people that in
its war work, especially in the matter of
creature comforts, the I.C.A.Y.\is
nearer to the boys than anyoneelse?"
"Yes, It stands nearer to theta than
anything else except the military organi-
zation under whose discipline they live
—and die, You see they are specially
organized, trained and outfitted for 11(10
kind of work—and they are ie mighty
spiritual force, too."
When leaning flim, I stopped to talk
to several other clergymen she appeared
in the offing --it tine a place of clerge-
men- and lir stepped front the room,
