I quite recognize. without reading your hymn-book the splendid object of this Club and the vast field of usefulness before you. It lt one of the wants we had had In this little community, I think-the gathering together of the business men, msn ‘of every trade, men of every profession, to interchange thought and help mould the oplnfon
perhaps as well as anywhere.
If. is a. long call for nie back to the me`when_ns a. youngster I was out
upon the public square watching the bonfire nf. the fall of Sebastopol. ooklng all round, I ani undoubtedly the oldest of the lot of you, n man who can look back to an occurrence mbbut slxfy-four years ago, with a fair " remembrance of the occasion, who has had n glimpse of the mon of the nrst hall' of the last Century, who roveroucod the men of the gen- eration following, and spent his boy- hood wltli the generation following after, and now remains of tho fcw of the present dying generation.
I like to remember the days of old!
l like to think of the old men who, In my boyhood days, shaped the des- tlnlos of this province, men to whom wa owo a great debt of gratitude. mon whose unstlutod lionosty of pur~, pose, men whose Individual greatness appeals to mc today ns an old man af- ter having had tho opportunity of com- paring llie mon of flint duy with thc nicii of today. When we reflect that lo sucli men as Coles and Whelan, to
wlioni I llsfcned In my boyligod, wc owe responsible government, free ed ucatfoii and, coming down the years with the men who came to be giants
of their day, /fenaiit freedom, tenant right.
I remember oiico addressing a
meeting ln llaiiillton ln ‘this prov- ince, and an old gentleman caught iiiy eye and l stayed wltli hlui that night., -William MacNeIll Simpson, I-le told me tales of old, thc tales of George Coles when lie first fliouglil to impress upon the people of this provfiice tlic neod of’ free education. Ile went to Hope Rlverand found there mon who had come from the old sod, as they said, to escape faxu- tioii; and when Coles suggested that he was going; to tax every man ln the province that he might have free schools' from* one ond to the other, they rcbelled. Wlicu lie came to ad- dress flint meeting In tlic little sclionl house, they said "Wo will not have any taxes imposed upon us." Wliat did he say to them?-as McNeill Simpson fold me. "Men," he said, "you can- not do without free schools, a'nd I. will cause tlie free school system to be inaugurated lu this province before this year ls closed whether you vote for me or not. (Applause) I don’L care a straw," said he, "whether I
win In this district. l_can wln an el- cctlon In any part of this province ox- cept fi. few little rotten iborouglis. Do you want to fbo howers of -wood and drawers for all tho rest of the com- munity about you? Do you want to be the only uneducated class ln this country? Why!" he said, “there may
be sitting In tliat|buck seat a little boy with bare feet who, If educated, might become the future Clilef’ Jus tice of the province, and you won'f give him gi chance!"-iind McNeill Simpson told me that a future Chief Justice of the province was slttfng
at that moment In the buck scat in
the llttlo school house. (Applause). How this town has altered to an
old man! I can remember the old round market house, with Mother Na- flon, of whom°we boys used to bc afraid, for fear sho would open hor mouth and givo us a "tongue-Iasliing." I can remember the time when Ward 5 was one sheet of water, and wc slrot snipe there. Af least, I did not shoot any, but I watched the older men shooting. -
Now, It would bo unwise for me to
make comparisons of the mon of that day with the men of today. I do not know that it would serve any good purpose. But you know there was among the older men of that tlmo ii stern sense of duty that nl- wayii impressed mo as a young man. There wifs a sense of individual res- ponsibility and of personal duty that was, I think, without saying anything that might be unpleasant. stronger fn the older men of tho provlncet than

were different, and of course ‘tho op portunltles were different, and the responsibility of guiding the future of tho province lay largely upon a few men, not upon many men. But I re- member many of such men as I tra- velled flirough this country ,of the seine clasp and type as William 'Mc- Neill Simpson,--strong individuality, educated personality and ii hlgb some of\personal duty. You know we were a proud lfttle people at thin time. We never met fn 4 gathering like this without the toast "Islanders abroad," --King, yes, of course; Governor-

ialied for any eloquence was “Island cfs Abroad.” That was the toast In tliose days.
Passing on from that, we are today.
of course, under very changed condi- tlona from the tlnio l was a boy, und used to put the wick In the candle frame and watch my father or moth- cr pouring ln the fallow to make can- dles to light us to ’-bed. I can re- member when flrsf. wax candles camo In. Now today it looks like an un- tlquatod dream. But thu world is changed.
And now the world Is at war. The
puzzle to nie about tlils great war Is, that all seem to be Ilglitlng under the direction of the same God. The same Walhalla is offered to flie soldier, the dying warrior, and It puzzles nie, as ai thinking man, and It must puzzle many of y'ou. Of course wo have lost our faith lii Tlior :ind Wodoii and nucli-llke deities, niid we do not roul- lzc,-af. lcust I do not,-that fliers ls' a special reward in any fufuro place for wai"i‘lors, I roiiieiiilber reading of one of Aiiiorfc-a’s greatest iiieu wlio, sitti_ng ln his library one day, was vis- ited »liy a friend wlio, noticing a flue set of VoltuIi'c’s works ln tho library, turiicd to his host and oiii|uli‘od:--- “What did you pay for that set?" The host looked at lifm and replied: "Well, that cost me the Governorslilp of the State.” Ho ‘was ii. free-spoken man, a man who never, because lio felt tliat possibly something lic said wus not the tliouglit of the moment, refrained from giving expression to his belief. And that story crosses my mlnd when I say, fn all sincerity, that I do not like -tlils' call on God as ai war God. The little historical ln- formatlon that I have takos me back --away back, if ygou like-to the time when Constantine the Great took the 'Cross of Christ as a. victorious bun- ner that he mtght win all that his imperial lust doslrod. -It is a long cull between Constantine the Great and little Elsie Hlndeiiburg, the daughter of the great commanding chief of the Germnii forces, and yet let mo read to you a verse of tho hymn she sent last -Christmas to a
German Society In New York:
Jesus 'Christ gave His life for nic, From every debt I am now froc, lic to the bayonet thrust glvos vigor, The joy to aim, to pull the trigger, My uid fs Jesus, that I know, On to thc fool On to the foe!
The same thought, is It not? Nor do lseo a gront difference, lion-
cstly, between the German song_of the Sword--"lt is moot and rlglit that I should cry Maud In my pride, for am I not the flaming messenger of the Lord Almighty?" and thc War Song--"The sword of the Lord and of
Gideon," that was onco the war cry of one of England's greatest lmen? I look back in history and find that from the time the chlldron of Israel destroyed tho five nations of the Cannanltes,-the land that flowed with mllk and honey,--and left thoro- ln nothing that breathed, to this day ot' bloody warfare, that calling upon God as a. war God has' not battered ii race, or made man more Godllke. I think the help that will come to us fn the Individual call to every soul, to' take his part. You remember the scene that took place In the Reich- stug in May, 1918, when Chancellor von Bethmann-Holwegg made that celebrated peace apoecli of his In which he said ‘:We are going to ach- ieve all that we wanted by peace, but our enemies chose war;” and that In- stantly thete got up In that Reich- ltag a mad, clothed fn soldfe.r's unf- forni, with his trousers tucked fn lils boot legs, who, crossing the hall, pointed bln finger nt -the Chancellor and cald, "No, you chose war." And the Refchstag was fn a blaze and they hoot- od him down. That man was Dr. Karl Lllmecht, one of the greatest and blg-
gest mon Girmnny has recently pro- duced, tboug he wore no fron cron,
