The Last Home of the Windjammer

is called a race-but that is just
a gesture of respect to age {.
One has seen a fine ship of the
Erikson fleet come up the Firth
cannot hope to see again a sight
SO fine. She was painted white, and
even off the southern end of Arran
she was running free under her
own white canvas before a SOU
westerly breeze From the Ayr
shire shore, over a distance of 20
miles, her appearance was as of
some virginia. visitant. 1t seemed
that the peaks of Arran, purple
and blood-red in the setting sun
light, had been originally devised
to serve as romantic background
for her beauty. One wanted her to
stay there, frozen in motion, to be
an undying delight for the eye and
a correction of heresies. But still
she went on under sail, the dark
ling estuary her own. The red eye
of the light on Holy Isle winked
through her spars, but her white
mass remained an imminent blur
Even in the thickening cleaning
her superb shape maintained its
entity under the sombre masses of
G. t f ell and the neighboring
peaks. Her paint held the little
light that prevailed even until she
was clear of the long length of
Arran; and the CLEAN hung about
her, a sort of will o the wisp, until
at length she was swallowed up
near the Cumbrae Light in the
haze, intense as a bank of wood
violets, that is the deepest of a
midsummer night in Scotland.
One will probably never see the
like again. How Gustav Erikson
can contrive to keep these ships
running, even on the most amen
able of routes, partakes of the
n ture of a mystery. - From
Down to the Sea-" by George
Blake. Boston: Houghton Mifflin,

schooners of the United States
apart. This niche in shipping his
tory, for it surely is that, has been
chiselled for himself by Captain
those Aland Islands that are ethno
logically Swedish and now, by vir-
tue of a decision of the League of
Nations, politically Finnish. Born
in 1872, he was brought up in sail.
At the age of ten he was serving
as a cabin-boy, graduating in his
teens to the responsible rank of
cook. He became a bos'un and then
a mate at the age of nineteen he
was master of small wooden ship
trading in the Baltic At the end
of eleven years as a master mari
ner in sail he swallowed the an
Choir and set up in Mariehamn as
shipowner That was in 1913.
Erikson was content in the first
place to collect a fleet of such
small sailing ships as normally
diversity the Baltic seascape, but
the consequences of the European
struggle presented such an oppor-
tunity as he could not resist. For
this man was in love with sail
1t is notable that he has never
changed the name of one of his
acquisitions. The element of love
must even be a factor in his per-
sistence in the grain trade. At all
events he bought at scrap prices
the finest sailing vessels then
afloat-British, French and Ger
man. His sailors eye told him that
each was as sound as a bell if of
a type out-moded. He had also an
astonishingly shrewd eye for the
acquisition of gear for these ships
at rock-bottom prices. He knew
that the traditions of the Baltic
countries would guarantee him
crews of smart young Scandi-
navian cadets, and not few pre-
MUM apprentices from countries
wherein the crepuscular romance
of sail still fingered. And there was
always his own love of canvas and
the incalculable winds.
These ships of the Erikson fleet
leave the Spencer Gulf round about
New Years Day habitually. and
the British newspapers get a use
full supply of paragraphs out of
their arrivals at F m on h or
Queenstown in June and July. 1t

"SayNo Our Chief Has Fallen"

say NOT Onr Ch1et has Fdllen
NOTE The following poem written by A. DAHL
wife of the pastor of the Central Baptist Church First s"ed
Baptist ChurchD in Seattle, by her a Memo
Service for President Franklin Roosevelt
The sea guls dip their wings against the gray,
The leaden waves reflect the weeping cloud
The snow-capped sentnes have yelled their heads,
They too, with earth, in silent grief are bowed.
Throughout the world the shocking word is heard,
Carried with lightning speed on ether wave
And as it trembles thru the trackless space,
The sky seems dark, the sun less brave.
Our chief has falen-the champions undone.
Back million voices all as one,
Friend of the downtr now himself laid low
Why, he's my friend-this surely can't be so.
One voice from hearts of sailor, soldier, king,
Stunned and amazed to hear this shocking thing,
Friend of the sick and dying laid low
Tell us instead this surely can't be so.
From statesman, peasant, black white brown;
From crowded city, countryside or town.
From rich and poor, the skilled, the most forlorn,
Wide-eyed with grief-one word from each was torn
Why he's my friend-friend of the high, the low;
l feel aone-tell me this is not So
The miner said it and the financier;
The taxi-driver and the engineer;
Inc VINO DuluS the SnlpS ana makes the
The man who had known loss had found gain
The artist said it and the farmer too;
The aborer who felt that he was true;
The bishop said it, preacher and the priest;
The very greatest and the very least.
The actor said it, mailman cook and clerk,
And all who love their fellowmen who work:
The educator and the still untaught
The crippled children to whom he had brought
So much of hone and courage with a smile
For he was one who understood their trial
We've lost our friend-the greatest of them all
We cannot understand why he should fall,
But soon from out the sorrow and the grief
Which thus befell the decent human
The courage of their hero-his belief
In right-his heroic will
To overcome and Shatter idle fear
By service for his felows-this brave faith
Inspires all who find in him a friend
To do their job, like him. unto the end.
Then say not, he has fallen
Rather say-that he has risen
To the lasting peace,
symbol of the power of good will
The power of love to shatter want and fear,
Symbol clear of courage and of faith,
To make of that long lost brotherhood
To kindle friendship for each race and creed
To know my neighbor is the one in need,
Say not chief has fallen-rather say
Our friend walks more freely in The Way.
