Perhaps there is nothing that makes understanding of a people easiâ€" er than a sympathetic conception of their poetry and songs. Because the psople of British birth desire to underâ€" stand those of other origins some conâ€" sideration of the literature that has inâ€" spired ‘the Finnish people is not out of place. The "Kalevala," is the great epic poem of the Finnish people and so is worthy of special consideration. A gentleman of Finnish origin has kindâ€" ly given The Advance a copy of an arâ€" ticle dealing with the Kalevala. This article was originally published in The Christian Science Monitor, of Boston, Mass., and is as follows:â€"â€" When the Finnsâ€"that sturdy, somâ€" ber, meditative and ancient people, who wandered from their original home in the Ural mountains and beâ€" side the Caspian seaâ€"were driven farâ€" ther and farther into the bleak northâ€" land, they went singing all the way; and that singing grew into their great naticonal epic, the Kalevalaâ€"Land of Legends from the time forgotten, Since we now are here togsther, Come together from our roamings. On that long journey, begun perhaps 4,000 years ago, they touched parts of the flowery and brilliant land of Persia, since their songs are ablaze with Oriâ€" ental splendorsâ€"glowing colour, gorgeâ€" cus raiment; sheen and silver and gold and the sparkle of jewelsâ€"â€"not such as we asscciate with the cold North: Saw great Tapio‘s lovely daughter In her hair were sparkling jewels, On her neck a pearly necklace, And her braidlets, silverâ€"tinseled. Wanderings Over the Earth. "Kalevala" Dates toAteâ€" mote Antiquity, and was Composed when Finn eoâ€" ple Were Isolated. Kalevala Regarded by Literary Men as a Precious Contribution to Poetic Literature. Finnish People Have Carried Their Poetry Withe'g;zzln Finland Has Stirring Epic Poem of Heroes, the Kalevala This North Land has a comparatively THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO In this story of great heroes, Wainaâ€" moinen was the greatest. He sangâ€" Till the "copperâ€"bearing mountains, And the flinty rocks and ledges, _ Heard his magic tones and trembled; Mountain cliffs were torn in pieces, All the ocean heaved and tumbled And the distant hills reâ€"echoed. The poem reveals beautiful pictures of the home life of a people whose naâ€" tural language is poetry. Here is a motherâ€"inâ€"law giving thanks for a "seâ€" cond daughter": Who can stir the fire at evening, Who can weave me finest fabrics, Who can twirl the useful spindle, Who can rinse my silken ribbons, Larger build our humble cottage, Wider build the doors and windows. Higher fashion thou the ceiling, Decorate the walls in beauty. The Kalevala begins with the creaâ€" tion of the world ‘"in the solitude of ether," from the eggs of a duck who flew "over the blue back of the ocean" to find a nestingâ€"place: From the white part came the moonâ€" grain, The beginning of good fortune The unending of resources. ‘Two of the most beautiful runes are those of the Birth of the Harp and Wainamoinen‘s Harp songs. The harp was made from the bones of the pike, by the great hero, who had a mcodern understanding of byproductsâ€"the effiâ€" ciency of using things at hand: Scholars believe that the Kalevala dates to remote antiquity, composed when Finland was isolated for the reaâ€" son that no mention is made, in this oral singing, of Russians, Swedes or Germans, later their neighbours. Also, the similarity between the incantaâ€" tions, stori¢és and proverbs of this epic, and those of ancient Hungarian writâ€" inzs, indicates that the Kalevala was sung before these two peoples were separated. As a whole the Kalevala points to that conflict, old as the material uniâ€" verse, besween good and evil, light and darkness; and recites a conflict between the Finns and Lapps, begun when these two peoples were neighbours in their Asiatic homes. Naturally the Finns reâ€" present good and the Lapps evil. The epic is regarded, says John Martin Crawford (whose translation is here used), "as one of the most precicus conâ€" tributions to the literature of the world, made since the time of Milton or the German classics." cloudage. The birth of the great hero follows with all of the things of earth. There is a wonderful sympathy of all natural objects; everything speaksâ€"sometimes they are quite outspokenâ€"even pathâ€" ways, when questiocned by a mother seeking her son. There are tales of high adventure and great deeds; wondrous wovings; wedding songs of rare beauty; love of parents and mother love; all illuminatâ€" ed, as Edward Young says, "by the light of common day rather than by the supernatural." A pagan epic, the whole Finnish peoâ€" ple its author, the Kalevala belongs to that natural period preceding literary production. The same meter, and plian, On another salt is making, On a third is money forging And the lid is many coloured. Around such a wealth producer the contest wages between the Finns and Lapps, until the Sampo is dropped in the sea, where the largest part is lost in the depths, butâ€" Many fragments of the Sampo Floated on the purple waters, Rocked by winds and waves of Suomi. When Wainamoinen found the fragments floating he rejoiced; Thence will come the sprouting seedâ€" The Kalevala centres about the forgâ€" ing of the Sampo, a magic machine which gives luxury and ease to living, a machine was used by Longfellow in Hiawatha, the poet having found a German transâ€" lation of the Finnish poem about the middle of the nineteeth century, before an English translation had been made. bones Could an artist be discovered That could shape then to my wishes So he tries designing: Quick became fishâ€"bone artist, Made a harp of wondrous beauty, Lasting joy and pride of Suomi. Here we have the origin of the kanâ€" tele, old models of which may still be seen in museums in Finland. The rune of the playing of the harp beautifully expresses that northern people‘s love of music: f Now was gladness rolled on gladness, And the harmony of pleasure Echoed from the hills and mountains. Out of joy did joy come rilling. Now resounded marvelous music, All the Northland stopped to listen. Leaped the squirrel from the lands. Ducks arose from inland waters, branches Climbed the ermines on the fences, O‘er the plains the elkâ€"deer bounded, And the lynxes purred with pleasure, Wolves awoke in farâ€"off swampâ€" beams, From the yellow part the sunshinse, From the motley part the starlight, From the dark part grows the Sorhething wondrous might be buildâ€" From the jaws and teeth of fishâ€" On which one side the flour is grindâ€" Holly Rees Still Lead in the Fraternal League Holly Recs. still maintain a lead of one point over Moose A. in the Praâ€" ternal League bowling.
