It. is, only too true .that we might be 'bettei- engaged ; in; doing something which wpuld relieve the suffering of our people, instead of being engaged in this discussion, . but since, this matter is under Consideration, I feel that^iLus of sufficieht' importance to warrant my taking up some of the time of the house. Mr. Speaker, I wish to- say that I am proud ■ f6 be a citizen of Canada, if that will meet with the approval of -the leader of the 'opposition (Mr. Mackenzie King).

Curjpiis to know, just... whbre’ EL F. omes on in the Odium geneal­ ogy, I got in touch with, a Toronto member o*f th© clan. Major F. E. Qdlum, and learned. from, him that he is. a son pf^Prof. Edgard A. Od­ ium, a .member for’ several years ®of the staff of Victoria College, this, city and -now living at an advanced age in Vancouver. Another son, General Vietor Qdlum, won high distinction in the. Great War. My informant, JfejgiLQdlum^alsp-serWed^inrthat^on^ giving conflict. He is a son of Albert Odium, who with bis brother William (later Dr. Win.. Odium of Woodstock) were schoolmates of mine during the principalship of t|ie late W. H. Smith, a teacher to whom I; owe much and whom I hold’in most kind­ ly remembrance. The Al- of those days' was a mischievious lad. If there were any pranks;. placed in- the -yil-" lageto’ nights to which Al and his boon confederate “Gollum” Campbell were not parties, I’d like to . know what they were. The Odium parents, John and his wife (a; sister of Mrs. ,J. H. McHardy) brought up a num­ erous family. . Their sons (not to speak of their daughters) and grand­ sons, played a distinguished part in life. Though the name is riot now, I believe, to be found on the rollof Lucknow’s residents, it is a jame .that the village Will hold in remem- brance...' ; There was immediate interest for me in other names that MrV Odium Weaved. intQj his story, though he is a little astiky in some of the derails.

Now if there is. no of my speech.! shall finish that pari dope in the past four years, of it, but if not, I shall leave it aside for the moment. We might be better ' engaged-. at the moment if there was no danger of unholy bands being laid on the union jack. When interrupted I wak proceed­ ing to say that our children love and have been taught to love-the songs in out school, houses .and the union jack which floats over every public school in my country. That. IoVe will not be supplanted by any new-fang­ led flag. The pioneers who came to my county never thought they would raise a generation which for one moment would even suggest or hint that the union jhek which they brought with " them was not good enough. There is a danger I should like to mention, Mr. Speaker I have not a word to say abo.pt any person '‘ who has come" to this* country from any land.. Every citizen of our country has been .permitted or invited to come consequently we should treat them q.s brothers and sisters; but I do say if it had not been for millions of .im­ migrants who came in. between the years of 1921 pnd 1930, and; particu­ larly, the half , million—which came ^uring„ the lart: three years of the King administration we would pot have.,, as great a problem as we have today. We talk about assimilating r.aces. Well, you start first with your sons'and your daughters. Start in a impractical fashion and then talk to me about the assimilation of races. It will (^ome, through a-'4ong period of time, but the point "is that.most of these races do not wish to be assim­ ilated; T do ^ay "however they should know that when -they come to a part of‘the British empire they, will have all. the ^privileges afforded by our flag, the union jack. Upon Other occasion in this ses­ sion I propose to do my full measure of battling, I have decided we should not lot these foolish -. .arguments go unchecked this session as we He who asks most gets mosf.'There is no escaping this truth. It is1 some­ thing like the tortoise and the. hare. The race in business is not to the swift,, nor to the; ^clever, nor to the brilliant man, but to the man who is most diligent—to the man -who keeps on doing his plain duty.
