The general idea, and it isi as deep-rooted iii theseparts as the roots of the oldest maple, is that unless a man gets. up at dawn and works hard with his (hands• all day, he's not mach good. For. 'some strange reason, the idea gets car- ried 'beyond the •realm of "physical prowess into that of morality. With- out going outside my own. neigh- borhood, I'll bet I 'can find a dozen people who think a fellow who can't lift a hundred pounds with one hand, can't dig •a ditch all morning or do all the backbreaking job around the house without get- ting stiff muscles, is a sissy. What's more, they'll suggest that such a weakling is •probably' not as strong morally as he ought to be either. In some way, many of us 'have got to feel that to be a "good worker" is the same as being a "good living man." Well, sometimes it is and some- times it isn't. An ability with a pick or hay fork never yet was a sure guarantee of entry into the Kingdom of Heaven. There's noth- ing wrong with being able to do what in these parts is called "a good day's work," but there's noth- ing particularly right about it either. Take the case of the chap I heard about the other day. By our stand- ards he is what we would call "net much good." He is well known as a man who keeps irregular hours. Often he stays up half the night; usually he has his breakfast in bed and many days he isn't dressed be- fore noon. He is a heavy smoker and he drinks—alcoholic beverages, that is. Generally his habits are those which we call sissy stuff. He has been known to write 'poetry, and often you can see him painting pic- tures. He defended • Edward VIII when he decided to give up a throne for the love of a woman. In his life he has been down and out, and more than once has been on the verge of bankruptcy. I doubt very much if he could dig a post - hole, pitch a forkful of hay, or that he ever did eight hours of manual labor a single day of his life. In short, if that man lived in these parts we would call him "no good." In plain sober truth, we could not have got on without him. After refusing to listen to his warnings for almost ten years, we suddenly found ourselves on the brink of dis- aster. Our allies were shattered; our Commonwealth unprepared, and ourselves a people without a leader, Did we turn to a good, solid indus- trious and sober man who had worked his way up the hard way, knew what it was to earn his liv- ing by the sweat of his brow, went to hed every night at 'nine and got up at five? No, we did not! - Why? There were lots • of these around. There are several hundred right in this town. Well. we. picked. the other fellow and• not many—if any—of us has ever regretted it. We couldn't have got along without this wastrel call- ed Winston Spencer Churchill, and that's a fact. He saved us, and now we recognize him for what lie is: one of the greatest men in our times. But still we look upon ,him with tolerance. We forgive, but fail to understand, what we still consider his foibles, his eccentricities. He helped us over a tough spot, so we smile tolerantly when we read about his writing and his painting,. Well, his paintings now sell for hundreds of pounds apiece—a good deal more than most professional artistsMake; his war memoirs have made him over a million dol- lars so far, and there's one book yet to come. At last this sissy stuff is beginning to pay off. And last week came the greatest honor of all. As he himself point- ed out, for the first time he receiv- ed an international award of the first magnitude. Was it for saving a, commonwealth? For great war leadership? For shrewd politics? For working eight hours a day with his hands? For early to bed and SANTA SAYS - .
