CHAPTER Ill. THE GIRL OF A DREAM.

Some rwomsn holds the master- key of a man's soul, and in every man's soul is s chamber which only siio can enter. Other women may have dwelt in the outer court- yards, dancing-girls mocked hy its doorway; but here he has worship- ped her from afar. raised his altar to thr. Unknown Goddess. his Girl of a Dream, and 0n jhe altar set to burn tho sacred flrq of his faith ln the ideal. Here ls her throne. her shrine. and her citadel. His Manhood lies on guard across the door. Once she has entered, he is hers to rule; empress and queen she reigns; in her hand ls his des- tiny. Once she has gone-l For- tunately for most men she seldom comes until another woman holds the gate who will not lot her In.

No woman held the gate for John Henry when Clara Woolfendeii came. No woman had entered even the outer courtyards. l-Ils chamber‘ was swept and garnished. The light or the sacred fire illumlncd his wliule soul. "Lucifer. Son of the Mornlng"—so had a master once addressed him; 85118810!‘ W011! to caricature his pupils by the skil- ful gift ot ancient names; s sarcas- tic man who yet had grown con- fused as though the name llflll sprung from him involuntarily. a much more generous feeling than sarcasm its cause. For men had always warmed to John Henry. He had very many friends. But wo~ men had always sought him in vain. The announcement of his eu- gagement to Clara was the sensa- tion oi the year.

Nor was it this merely because hitherto he had remained so con- pcuously heart-whole, so unsus- taptibie to the charms of the tallest. The news was heard with ilismay. Clara Woolfenden was ‘tlic last girl in India who should have been sought in marriage by a subaltern ambitious of s. career. Everybody liked her. A more lovely and charming girl there could not he found. Her fatiher it was who had made her name dis- reputable. A retired civil servant. he had not returned home; he had entirely lost caste; all sorts of ru- mom were afloat concerning him; much that was ugly had been con- llrmcd. He was drunken and dis- solute. He had played a promin- cnt and disgraceful part In several uupli asant scandals in which young officers, newly out, had been in- volved. His associates were uii- dcslrable; the chief of ‘them a par- ticularly sinister person, Eli Curse. a Eurasian moneylcnder in whose debt he was thought to be. Old friends of her dead mother might

There came a note from her one duy asking for the immediate loan of a large sum of money. The time had been well chosen. His thank account was exhausted, nor could he replenish it for several days. But in his care were certain mess moneys, given to ‘him tha‘t day to (liscliargo several outstanding bills. Out of them he made the loan; and an hour later the chief creditor was complaining to his superior ofilcer that the mess account was still unpaid.

Without asking a single question or saying a word to any one, this officer, a colonel who liked John Henry, paid what was owing; but the story was abroad that evening. spread no one knew how, and In such an ugly version that the mat- ter passed beyond his friendly con- trol. Not only had the mess funds ‘been misappropriated: John Henry, it was alleged, had secretly fre- quented an out-of-bouuds establish- ment, and used tho money to square his debt.

It is something to think over. that thers are more Island people In the New England States than there are on .1’. E. Island today, ac- cording to the latest statistics. We know we have here lortile farm lands and s fine class of peo- ple. We have‘ some up-to-date -tar- mcrs; but we have some who are not so prosperous. In the news- papers It can often be read where so-and-so died in some part of the Island, leaving four or five sons; one in Western Canada, one in the States, and ‘s0 fnrtli,—snd “John. the one -boy at home.

We must “take stock" and see just what is the matter with con- ditions. and when the trouble Is located a remedy should be applied. The Maritime Provinces must re- celve fair play or there will be "something wrong." In 1912, when we ‘had four furniture factories on the Island, making furniture ‘for all tlon should co-operate in a united appeal in the Interests of the Island, so that our children and children's children can live -in comfort and prosperity In the land of their claims at Ottawa, and the OPPOSI- blrtti, and not be forced to emigrate elsewhere. .

Mr. McEwen recalled that In 1873 at home!" There is generally only Quebec added to ‘her total 350.000 miles 0f Hinterland, away up to the north, It was thought a useless pos- session, but no penson can tell the potential value or that property. Ontario has added 146.000 miles of land and Manitoba 170,000 miles. Altogether they have acquired a total of some 700,000 miles of ter- ritory. of which we were entitled

to a proportionate share. That would have meant 14,000 miles. cqunl to seven times the present

size of this Province! _ Are obese not thlnbgs which should be made right? For that reason the Government should press our the people nd exporting a consid- erable qua tlty to the mainland. He could remember a machinery firm, right in Charlottetown, making the best shingllng machine used. We had tanncrlcs all over the country; tailor shops whore cvery- Ono's clothes were made and shoc- makers who really made boots and shoes. We had breweries where they made beer, and where our farmers sold ‘their barley and malt at mighty good prices and made money out of it. it‘ the beer was as bad as they tell us today it ls on the constitution, it is a wonder that any of us are here at all!

ln those times, the wool would be taken from the sheep's buck and maids into clothing for the chil- (Iran's back, right on the Island; and the ‘boys and

the work.

In 1871 there were 49 schooners built on the Island. There were squarc-riggers and all kinds of craft, and the harbor was flllcd with vessels. There was a big trade with the West Indies and a lot of stuff such us oatmeal, ctc., hzstead of ‘being Imported, was produced right ‘hero. We mado all our own liarneus~—a big item in it- sei-f in those days. Today. thc harness shops arc simply trying to exist.

When Federal matters are ills» 0085M we talk one way. and when we argue from the standpoint 0i P. E. Island we must talk another way. Mcniibers of this Legislature are here to represent the island, and they most look to tho Interests of the Island. It has been said that no policy from a Federal standpoint will suit all Canada alike. ‘Quebec and Ontario want high protection ‘because they want to sell ‘manufactured goods, ‘but how does that affect us‘! We have to not as scavengers and sell our stuff In all parts of the world, be- cause those manufacturing Pro- vinces raise everything that wo raise. W's, In this Provinco, have i0 100k to foreign markets for what We have to sell: Tin,- prcscllt tariff may suit Canada as s whole, but It certainly docs not sult this Island. All tlhese facts we should take with us and go as a body and lay before tho authorities nt Otta- wa the true situation, namely -- that we are slowly‘ bleeding to death, and that if they have a

lf-thlngs keep on as they are. how Ions will it be before this Island ‘has nothing left -but oiio huge fox ranch? Mr. McEwen be- lieved 1t was only a question 0t‘ arithmetic. Why should that be in the bust little spot on the Uiii- verse? What is it that we want’! The ilelegutions that go t0 Ottawa must go through u certain political etiquette. If you are a “friend OI the party" and there is a plum hanging on the tree which is going fto drop shortly, and you are liable to catch It, you must be pretty nice and nlauncrly. 'In the past, If you are an opponent of “the party" you will simply be listened l0 and told that the matter will be “taken Into serious consideratzon," and that is the last you will hear of it. But let us go to Ol-tawa as men repre- senting no party, but the Maritime Provinces, as men desperately In earliest. not with gloves but with the -bare knuckles, and with a hard fist to put under the noses 0t’ rhc Ottawa gentlemen and say: "Herc. smell that!

Therc are also big opportunities in the way of developing our West Indies trade. Enormous business opportunities await us there, and the matter should be given careful consideration. All kinds of tropi- cal fruit. which are grown down there, could be exchanged for our products.
