All too often we waste our sym- mihy on the children (if the poor i-iicii it should go to the children

Tm boy who knows that his xinm or Dad has plenty of shek- .is to pass his way when he --aaches manhood is not generally gpnnking, going to sleep with an ilnrm clock close to his ear. So l he happens to waken early, he turns over and takes another nap. while the youth who has nothing in the world but himself to de- pt-nd on feels the need of the alarm clock to get him up and moiit his duties on time. He knows the only highway open to him is the highway of struggle. lie knows he can't weep on the other feilow'l shoulder. or get money from stories. so in order in be somebody and find for him- .z-ir a place in the sun, he rises and shines.

For example, this Island pro- duced John Jacob Schurman, son of a Becieque farmer, who rose to an exalted position in ths muted States; M. B. Dockerty, ii.D., the son of a Cardigan farm- er earned his way through col- lege from packing railroad ties and selling cod fish. Today Dr. Dockerty is consultant and head .-if a section on surgical pathology at the famous Mayo Clinic, Ro- i-iir.-ster, Mlnn.; L. W. Shaw, Dep- uty Minister and Director of Edu- cation for Prince Edward Island was also a farm boy and later a iilscksmith. before attaining his present position; Hon. John Bow- lPn, is former Cardigan boy whose first job after he left the Island .n 1892 was driving a team in iiio. city of Boston for 317 a month. Later he worked for the Sirarn! Lumber Co., at 51.50 per div. Still later. in 1895, Bowlen on a street car conductor get- i'n: 52.5 per day for 12 hours or work. Not satisfied with these small rewards Mr. Bowien home- siraded in the Canadian west. He mil owns and operates 4,000 acres of choice wheat land near Cai- zary. Mr. Bowien was appointed lieutenant-Governor of Alberta wiiruary 1st. 1950. All in all that's quite an achievement for a farm lad with only a country
school education. . . .

slept. with the alarm clock close to their car. and went places. I might. add Hon. B. W. LePage. Air. W. Chester S. McLure, Sen- ator Thomas Grant. the late Hec- tor MacDonald and Donald Nic- holson rhritii imrn on forms at Row Vollryi the former rose

From a farm boy at Hunter River to the exalted position of the first English-speaking Cardi- nal in Canada is the amazing story of His Eminence James Cardinal McGuigan, Archbishop of Toronto.
A score or so of other successful Islanders could be added to the above-mentioned names. The few I have given here will suffice io show that pluck and not luck turned the tide .in their favor.
They brought to their work the spirit of the artist, instead of the artisan. They never felt their humble tasks belittling or menial. and they gave to the welfare of the race the best' that was in them.

What price will iizituro not pay for a man's man? She will make him climb the hills of adversity and train him for years in the great school of experience, In order to perfect her work. The money accumulated in the process is only incidental. Nature works to shape the man. She doesnt give a tinker's dam for the shek- els in,comparlson, but she W1” pgy any price for a human EMM-
