Immortal Poem, In Flanders
Fields" By McRae Is Legacy
That He Left to The Wrld

post of lecturer in pathology, which he
occupied till August, Of 1914. With
this he combined the ardous work Of
a doctor in general practice. No man
of our circle in Montreal worked hard
er than did John McCrae. Yet he
seemed to find time for everything. and
contrived somehow to fill in the spare
moments of a busy life with the rev.
cries Of poet.
Fond of Society.
But Jack McCrae never adopted the
pose of a professional poet. He wore
his hair clipped to a military neatness,
and his clothes were Of the ordinary
fashion, and his manner free from the
least faint of literary affection. His
only standing literary utilization was
with quaint body called the Pen and
Pencil club, Of Montreal. It met fort
nightly In studio, kept it's soda water
Otis principal possession) in a tub of
ice at he side of the room, and with
some reluctance, permitted it's mem
bers to read to it their literary efforts.
1t was in this little circle that Jack
McCrae's poems first came before the
world. l believe that he also belonged
in a less regular way to a Shake
speare club, but OF the high delibera-
tons OF that body, l am not qualified
to speak.
Knew Lot of Stories.
Busy though he always was, McCrae
seemed to find time for social life, and
was in great demand at Montreal din
ner parties. His fund of stories that
was never exhausted made him the
treasure of his hostess, and even when
his hostess had withdrawn, Jacks
stories did not exactly come to a full
stop. Yet with all its social gifts and
opportunities he was a man of the
greatest moderation in his eating and
drinking and his amUsements, abhorred
late hours, and kept himself, mind and
body, in the training of an athlete. 1
should say that the governing idea in
his mind was a sense of duty: for a.!
his merry stories, he regarded the
world, after the fashion of his Scotch
ancestors, as a stern place, an abode of
trial and preparation for something
real beyond
McCrae was deeply religious; not in
the up-to-date sense of being intensely
interested in explaining away all dis
a agreeable forms of belief, but in the
older sence OF child like reverence and
implicit obedience to the written word
To us in Canada it is a wonderful
thought that Jack McCrae's verses and

(Stephen Leacock, in the London
Times)
In Flanders fields the peoples blow
Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our places, and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly,
Scarce heard amidst the guns below.
We are the dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved; and now we
lie
In Flanders fields.
Col. John McCrae, when he died In
the hospital at Boulogne in January of
1918, left as his legacy to the world an
immortal poem. 1t is no exaggeration
to say that the verses I'm Flanders
Fields" are indissolubly linked with
the story of the great war. The vision
of the peoples that blow among the
crosses symbolizes at once all the sor-
row and the pride of the sacrifice that
they immortalize.
But to those of US who were privil-
eyed to be his friends, Jack McCrae
left in addition to this an abiding mem
Dry that will never be obliterated and
that the lapse of time can but intensi-
fy. We did not need his written verse
and the story of his devotion to tell us
the kind of man he was. We had
known it long,
The same ideal of patriotism and de-
votion to duty that inspired him in the
war had been the mold in which his
life was cast.
A Soldier at College.
I can first remember Jack McCrae
when he was an undergraduate at the
University of Toronto. Even then he
was soldier of sort: he belonged to
an honorable but neglected body called
Company K, the university company
of the queens own rifles of the militia
Of Canada. The times were unpropiti-
Gus. The atmosphere was one in
which military ardor burned dim.
But looking back upon them in re-
Prospect they appear a band of heroes.
McCrae's name is only one of an hon
ored list of Canadian soldiers, dead and
living, whose first service to their
country was in the drill squad of com
pany K.
McCrae graduated in arts and later
in medicine, at the University of To-
ronto, and soon after his graduation
saw service in South Africa as an Of
ficer in the Canadian artillery. It was
after his return from South Africa in
1900 that he came to NTcGill to fill the

.COLYIN COMES OUT
AS AN INDEPENDENT
VIII Oppose n. e. Candy For County
Commssionershp From District 3.

w. E. Colvin of district three filed a
petition signed by twenty-five qualified
electors and officially passed on by J. A
Kirkpatrick, supervisor of registration, in
the office Of County Clerk Macgibbon
yesterday, asking that his name be placed
on the ballot for the county commission
ership from his district at the general
election in November.
Mr.. Colvin comes out as an Indepen-
dent in the race against the Democratic
nominee, H. E. Candy, and his friends
predict that he will make a good race.
Mr.. Colvin has tried for a seat on the
county commission before and although
he was never nominated or elected he
polled a good vote.
So far as is known at present Commits
sioner Candy is the only nominee that
will be opposed at the polls in Novem-
Der. However, it is runored that others
may come out within the next few weeks.

Japanese-American
Relations Helped
By Washington Meet

TOXIC, Aug. 26.-Americans who
have been residents in Japan for sew
eral years noticed very great diff
ference in the Difference paid the
American flag flown during Secretary
Denby's visit and the reception it
would have received some months
ago. This was particularly notice
able during a concert given by the
band from the Transport Henderson in
Hibiya Park. Even few months ago
an American gathering of the kind
would have been unpopular to say
the least and incidents" would in all
likelihood have occurred. On this oc-
casion, however, the flag and every
American tune was cheered. Ameri-
can residents put this down to the
fact that suspicious have been wiped
out by the Washington conference and
the fact that Japan has been taken in
as an equal with the other powers in
a great international agreement.
Americans who know Japan say the
Japanese look upon the latter as
great advance and nothing could in
duce them to give up the position thus
gained.

A Few Words
ABOUT THE
Safety Car

You will notice the easy riding quail
tiles the very first time you board one.
Everything has been done that modern
railway engineering teaches, to make the
SAFETY CAR the last word in comfortable
riding.
Pensacola is getting the benefit of over
seven years of experience in the construc-
ton of these cars and has advantage of cor
rected errors in design that may have
shown themselves in that period. And just
that our patrons may know how extensive
this experience is, and how widely used is
this safety car up to June of this year,
there are 6,763 of these cars in service in
over 300 cities in the United States; Tampa
has 70; Savannah has 80; Baltimore has IS;
Detroit has 250; Kansas City has IS; Mont
gomery has 26; Mobile has II; Charlotte
has so; Nashville has At, and so on. It's use
is becoming universal even in the largest
cities and such case is justified in that the
public gets better and faster service. It's
use has inaugurated new era in street
railway transportation that corresponds to
the superiority of automobiles to the horse
drawn vehicle.
These cars seat thirty-four people, and
their operation is so nearly automatic that
one-man can handle them more easily and
with less exertion than two men handle the
old type cars. Every operation is mechan-
ical and manual labor is reduced to nnini
num-
Their weight is only slightly over half
the weight of the old type cars and this
makes it possible to accelerate very rapidly
on the start and to stop quickly on appica-
ton of air brakes. But with this quick
starting and stopping, there is none of the
JERKY MOTION so common to the old
cars.
We said the operation of this car is
automatic and this is an instance. Sup
pose the motorman should become sudden
ly i'll or for some reason be forced to let go
the control handle,-the moment he re-
leases pressure on the handle the auto
matte apparatus begins to work; the cur
rent is shut off, and emergency air brakes
applied bringing the car to a stop at once,
and the doors at the same operation, would
be unattached. In any emergency, the
notor1nan simply has to release the control
handle and the car does the rest
We believe that you will enjoy these
new cars more if you understand them,
consequently these talks,-there will be
more tomorrow.

COMMUNITY WELFARE

Community walfare has become a
national habit and the community
that does not fall in line in this
modern method of letting the public
know what's doing in their par
ticular neck of the wooks is not
getting what is coming to them.
The habit of getting together on
all subjects of interest to the com
munity, will grow when put into
constant practice.
Whether it is the farm interests
or the educational interests in our
schools and children it is better for
all when it is discussed in friendly
social gathering where an exchange
of ideas broadens the scope of Wis
ion. We have been very much in,
terested in our news letter from the
little community of Panaca, eaci
weeks has several important items
of Public Welfare news, adyertisin}
the things that are of importance tt
the community from not only th'
social side but the progressive ant

well for the community, it indicate
harmony and cooperation. TIL

would be in operation at any time
such highway was completed.
And whereas The Sunshine High
way connecting Canada with Mexico
now runs through both Ely and Las
Vegas, but between said two county
seats, owing to the absence OF high
way through Phoebe is forced to
make wide detour from Ely over
into Utah and back into Nevada via
the worst part of the Arrowhead
Trail; and
Whereas, Lincoln county has no
National Firest within its boun-
daries and can never expect any al
lotment of Federal Highway Aid
from that source, while there may be
some difficulties in using up the to-
tai amount available in the other
counties of the State; and
Whereas, Highway through Lin.
coin county would inevitably result
in the development of limitless re
sources in said county which requir,
only publicity and capital to make
them into source of much addition
al revenue to the State as IA whole:
Be 1t Resolved, That the Piocht
Commercial club use every fayorabl,
means within it's power to convinc
theh State Highway Commission
that Route No. Z should be designat
ed Immediately as part of tn
State Highway system to which Fed
eral Aid may be allotted, and tina
arrangements for preliminary sur
veys be made at as early date a
possible.

The new plan to raise the soldiers
bonus money by refunding the AL
fed war debt to the United States
and underwriting these securities
at less than par, will not be taken
by a majority of the tax payers as a
sound businessproposition.
The proposition reflects too much
the stamp of Wall Street,--in that
it sacrifices the interest, as we'll as
a part of the principle, giving the
money powers the benefit of the
shave at the expense of the tax pax
er, who would bear the loss that
must be made up in some way to
meet the home war debt bonds, etc,
The soldiers bonus should be
granted and met, the boys that put
their lives up in defense of the
world should be taken care of. They
are entitled to all that we can give
them. But why sacrifice. If the
government has to stand behind
these securities, and it surely will,
why not save some of the discount,
by issuing Soldiers Bonus certifl-
Gates, or greenbacks in you please,
against this same security Let
them run 20 or 80 years if neces-
sary, save the expense and RESPONSE
bility of this underwriting job.
We. recall that the Nation found
a way to take care of the Greenback
issue of the civil war. and if we re-
member rightly, it was President
Cleveland that found a way to take
care of considerable amount of
this hangover debt without injuring
the financial standing of this coun-
try. If in the end we should be re-
quired to resort to other expedients
for taking care of this Soldiers
Bonus" issue, we would have saved
to the tax payers of the country 20
or 80 years interest. If these debts
and accounts are to be handed down
to our posterity they should be made
as easy as possible.
