SIR GILBERT PARKER

Sir Gilbert Parker, who has attain
ed prominence in British politics as
well as widespread fame as a writer
of fiction, was born "a years ago to-
day in CamdOn East, Ontario. The
gifted knight of the pen is the son
of Joseph Parker a non-cOmmis-
stoned officer of the British army who
settled in Canada. After completing
his education at the Ottawa Normal
school and Trinity college, Toronto,
he emigrated to Australia for the
benefit of his health. It was about
80 years ago that he landed in Sgd
ney and found his first profitable en-
ployment for his pen as member
Of the editorial staff of the Sydney
Morning Herald. While clown I'M
der" he wrote a play or two for the
Australian stage, and an acting YER
sion of Faust" but his efforts to-
ward the elevation Of the drama
were not brilliantly successful. He
travelled extensively among the South
Sea islands, and published volume
Of travels.
It was upon his return to his ma
tive Canada that the young author
discovered the human material which
AAopAA GU lis Ill lHlpOLId1lI WOIh I'll
fiction. The Metis and half breeds Of
the Northwest, among whom he spent
some time, were Incorporated in his
first novel, pierre and His People,"
which was published in Toronto in
1892. Several other works of fiction
dealing with French Canadian life
followed and achieved for the novel
ist an international reputation. In
1895 he married Miss Amy Vantine,
New York heiress, and subsequent
ly settled in London, becoming a
Unionist member Of Parliament in
1900, and a knight in 1902.
Sir Gilbert has written much about
the war, including a volume bearing
the title of 'The World in the Cru
cible." The novelist asserts that Ger
many is doomed to fail in all her
plans, and that her failure will be
due to lack of fixed moral prin-
| ciples.'' "This globe, which has sur
vived Philip of Spain and Napoleon
Of Corsica, will survive William of
Potsdam," says Sir Gilbert, land will
see to it that, not only by the over
| whelming voice Of popular sentiment,
but by every device within the ingen-
| uity of peace-loving and 1aw-abiding
nations, it will be impossible for. an
other such pretender to the imperial
| throne of the universe ever to arise -
