There is something particularly appropriate ‘ ~ard touching about the tribute paid by two neighâ€" bouring newspapermen who pictured E. F. Stephenâ€" son, for sq pmany years the gifted editor of The New Liskeard Speaker, as celebrating his ninetieth birthday in his garden, among his flowers. Those who have had no other acquaintance with Mr. Stephenson than through his writings might we!) suspect that he would have a garden and that his . chief joy would be to roam about it, giving little services here and there, making friends, as it were, with the flowers. Those who have enjoyed the pleasure of personal acquaintance find no other picture so lifeâ€"like, so true, so vital, as E. F. Stepâ€" henson in a garden. What finer tribute to this man,â€"to any mancan there be than to tell the simple truth and say that he came years ago in the primeâ€"of his life to a wilderness, and toâ€"day ‘he walks in a gardenâ€"a garden he has built for: himself in a town where gardens are the glorious _rule, and where the Stephenson garden has been the inspiration for many another beauty spot. An ardent horticult.urist was passing the St. Mary‘s hospital the other evening and stopped as ‘all lovers of beauty do so often to gaze on the wellâ€"kept lawn, the attractive shrubs, the beautiful flowers, that come from the immense amount of rpare, of time, of labour, of affection, given that wonderful garden by the Sisters and their helpers. There was another man already stopped by the fence. He was one of the town fathers, and the ‘Jlover of flowers took it for granted that this man also was admiring the beauty that has been a Joy and a solace to so many, and an inspiration to so many others to add a little beauty to their homes and to the town. ~But the man at the fence frankly confessed that he was not concerned about any beautyâ€"he ‘was interested only in discovering if the town were receiving enough money for the water that was being used. The picture of E. F. Stephenson, the esteemed dean bf the newspapermen of the North in his garden should be an inspiration to all. It is a symbol and a' sermon. He walks in the garden in the evenmg, amid flowers, and respect and affection. j - Friends pass as the flowers fade. But enencies also depart, even as the weeds yield to industry and attention. is a wonderful thing to see the beauty of the garden in the evening. The man who has lived the noble life of the gardener has his compensation for his service and unselfishâ€" ness. He has the joy of beauty and the gift of peace. He has outlived enmities and spudded out prejudices. â€" Beauty remains. What the lover of flowers said to the other man cannot be printed here. It may be noted, howâ€" ever, that it was a heartfelt and expressive version of the opinion of the average man who sees not only that beauty is beyond mere material value but indeed has a dollar value of its own. The dollar value of beauty is always at a premium. " The truth is that the pittance for water for the garden is repaid a hundredâ€"fold to the people of the town in the beauty, the uplift, the solace and the joy that comes from the beauty spot at the hospital. For years the hospital grounds have been worth their we‘icht in gold for the comfort and the pleasure ‘they have given to all. ~Literally thousands have silently flunked the Sisters for the kindly work tbathumule possible this beauty : wise dub section of the town. Too often in thinking of old age there is the tendency "to emphasize the idea ot the many friends that pass away As the years mll onâ€"the flowers that fade as the seasons change. E. F. Stephenson in his garden should be a reminder that enemlks also pass awayâ€"tha,z the seasons take their toll of the weeds. â€" The noxious growths, inseparable it seems from every garden yield in the long last to the patient industry, the careful thought, the neverâ€"ceasing watichfulness The garden beautiful blooms and plossoms and is pright and gay, yet peaceful and} serene for all its joyousnes§ ‘The flowers of yesterday are gone but there are new blooms toâ€"day. Care and affection make them blossom again. As the years go by friends do pass, but new friends take their place. With a son to carry on the high traditions of the family, with daughters and grandchildxem to gladden the heart, Mr. and Mrs. sStephenson walk in the garden in the evening. ‘The picture of E. F. Stephenson in the garden in the evening of his life is a wonderful way to visuaâ€" lize the Stephenson story of a long and arduous life; with beauty and peace and charm as the reâ€" ward for the long years of effort and of interest. Timmins, Ont., Thursday, June 27th, 1935 IN THE GARDEN IN THE EVENING] Published Every Monday and Thursday by: EO LAKKE, Ownher and Publisher Political parties in this country have had their faults. The men of one party are always ready enough to admit the shortcomings of the other side. But reasonable men will agree that both parties have been loyal to Canada and its people, and no political agitators have been supported at any time by either party in any attempt to create disorder or riot. That is the way of one type of foreign politician. It will not find favour in this country, once the people are awake to the danger. The government at Ottawa will be fully in line with public opinion in calling on the militia to .prgven;; any coterie of foreign racketeers and" their poor dupés from senselessly and uselessly defying the law of the land and the rules of comâ€" mon sense. The proposal from Ottawa to roundâ€" up all the alien communists and their dupes and ‘Kkest out their soâ€"called "politics‘" in a court of law to decide whether they have a policy or a racket will meet with general approval. If there is any fault to be found it is that the roundâ€"up has not been done before. It is surely absurd to allow a few foreign crooks to capitalizeâ€"on the troubles of «he people in these days and permit these alien racketeers to dupe the unfortunate to violence and crime. â€" The roads in the North are in most deplorable condition, and practlcany all repair and mainâ€" tenance effort has been discontinued.. This is mistaken policy even from the mere standpoint of dollars and cents, and‘ without any consideration of the rights of the people. There are many milâ€" lions already invested in Northern roads and that investment is menaced by the saving of a few thousand dollars toâ€"day Building stretches of the Transâ€"Canada hnighway on the rocky shore of Lake Buperior, while other Northern roads are in danger of ruin is not good policy or good business. In referring to a mishap that befell a motor car the other day, a Southern Ontario newspaper deâ€" signated the crash as an "automatic accident." If there was a drunk in charge of one of the cars it would not be a typographical error. It would be an automatic accident, all right. It is a startling fact that oneâ€"sixth of the people living in Toronto are still on relief. There is more than a suspicion that some of them prefer to remain on relief. They have adapted their living to relief standards and are satisfied to conâ€" tinue as they are. What is true of Toronto is true in considerable measure of other towns and cities and of rural communities as well. The problem of the day is to force people off relief by providing them with work to make relief unnecessary. The excessive cost of public works to make direct reâ€" lief unnecessary appalled people in the past few years. The tendency to remain on relief is likely to prove equally appalling in the days to come. Probably someone will find fault with Mayor Richardson because he does not tell the people what the verdict of the judge and jury will be in the town‘s relief payroll fraud cases. "It‘s the people‘s money. The people have a right to know." as to what extreme measures may be forced in selfâ€"defence upon the ordinary political parties. It is difficult to forget the case of Cochrane. That town was scarcely through talking in high tones about tolerance and the rights of the foreign radiâ€" cal, when baseball bats were used to bring the foreign thugs to some sense of decency. f â€"\_vnen Premlér Bennett accused two members of a delegation of soâ€"called "hungerâ€"marchers" of being professional agitators, they, appeared to jump at the cpportunity to admit the aptness of the term. "Sure, we are professional agitators," theyâ€"are quoted as saying. "The Conservatives have their political agitators, why shouldn‘t we?" In this response the communists have made an admission that they have strenuously denied beâ€" fore. Of cowpse, everyone who has given the quesâ€" tion any particular thought has been well aware that the communist movement was not any plan for the betterment of the worker, but only a poliâ€" tical game under foreign auspices. The soâ€"called hunger marchers are only marking time in adâ€" mitting that they are simply a political group, with their origin on foreign soil, and their doc» trines as foreign as their origin. Neither the Conâ€" servative nor the Liberal party have ever kept "professional agitators" after the manner of the communists, Even the Conservative organizers have never been accused of stealing rides on the railways, though they have been accused of most other crimes and misdemeanors. In modern times no political party in Canada has advocated vioâ€" lence or the threat of violence, despite what they might consider the greatest of provocation. For instance, there has been no suggestion of organized force against Premier Hepburn in his many policies considered by many as outrageous, If the tolerance of the foreign professional agiâ€" tator is tolerated too far, however, it is doubt;ful| but that is well worth money to maintain.. The man who would measure the cup of water for a lawn is to be pitied for a futile outlook on lifeâ€" mistaking dross for gold and the emptiness of material things for the richness of beauty and Soy in the higher things of nature.
