GROVES TELLS CLUB INTERESTING STORY OF CANADIANISM About seventy members of Wingliam Canadian Club heard a wonderful story of the development of a Cana- • dian from Frederick K. Groves, who came into prominence last year through ids book "A Search for America". Mr. Groves first maintained that ria= terialistic achievement is no true basis to gauge a nation's success or ensure its permanence; History shows that the legacy coming from the ancient Greeks and Romans is their Art, 'of which, literature is a part, and the same may be said of the Egyptians. Canada; yet a young country, may be termed a book shelf 3500' miles long, on which is only one volume of prom- inence: He then instructeedathe career of a young boy, son of a Swedish fath- er and a Scotch mother, who when a year and a half old was taken to Paris and up to his 18th year spent a few months in each . country in Europe, at- tending schools, and acquiring a spear- ing knowledge of the various languag- es, The effort of getting one proved a stimulus and necessity of acquiring another. Then followed a few years travelling through Asia and Africa, and fortune '`found him in Canada where of necessity he must make his ' own, Locating in the upper part of. Mani- toba, he became stable valet to the cattle, and while resting his tired body, on a fork or against the log walls, read Homer, Illiad and other author's. Then for 18 years he worked as .a farm hand, teaching school at times, acting as adviser, as lawyer, doctor and politician; but ever getting a self -edu- cation of the most valuable character. Then came the idea of teaching in the frontier, getting a position in one of the Winnipeg coliegiates, But here he found it impossible to study, and after. a short experience went back to the country, when he finally wrote a boedr. that epitomised his experiences, and surpassed' his hopes for the future: It is not in the'bright lights and busy circles that real education is ob- tained, but in the silent recesses of na- ture, where a mind stored with good reading is able to develop and produce something worth while. It may be ad- ded that the boy was the speaker of the evening, but the story was so im- pressively told, and most as interest- ing by illuminating residents and ex- pressed in beautful language, as to give an added interest. It must be conced- ed and oneded"and admitted that Mr. Grove's ex- perience and success is a shining ex-. ample of "assimilating the foreigner" and his address that evening came at a particularly opportune moment, when this very question came up at the previous meeting of the Club. W. C. T. U. NOTES Mrs. T. T. George, Field Secretary of the Women's Christian Temperance Union gave a very interestinig and instructive address on ,temperance in the council chamber, on the evening of March 22nd.
