2. IILIGION GUIDED MN CAREER By Cecil B. clelviiile

One of Hollywood’s greatest pioneers and most famous figures Bound strength and guidance lhrough his boyhood religious train- ing. As a result Cecil B. deMilie was inspired to produce such nota- ble motion pictures as “Ten Com- tun.-iments", "King of Kings" and ‘The Sign of the Cross". Mr. de- Mille is presifent of Cecil B. de- Miiie Productions, Inc. and has organized, aid is p-esizfent of the Mercury Aviation Company in Hollywood, Californla.

Years ago in New York City an interviewer approached me.

"Mr. deMiiie." he said, “I want to ask you a rather personal question -- a question which few interview- ers may have asked you--but one to which many people would like an answer, I want to know what the finest religious memory of your ufe has been.”

That one hit me squarely be- tween the eyes. Religion has al- weys been a vital part of bofh my home life and my career, but I was hesitant to discuss it openly. still it was a good question, put differently by Thomas Carlyle. ‘The chief thing about a man is his religion."

I rlcailed my boyhood days when my father‘; vivid reading of the Bible had so profoundly influenced me. Then a particularly significant Incident came into my mind . . the occasion when a minister per- formed a complete church service with but I solitary boy in the con- gvregation.

Preacher! Each Day

I never will forget this minister. with prominent red beard, who once‘ came to preach for a week in my! home town of Pomptcn, New Jersey. I was ten at the time. My father was one of the supports of our community church and acted as a lay reader when the church could‘ not afford a resident minister.

The visiting minister announced he would preach each day during Passion week at an early motning service--eight o'clock as I recall. The morning I planned to attend dawned cold and rainy. I walked alone to the church through a murky morning gloom.

When I arrived I observed no one was present but myself and the red- bearded minister. I was the con- gregatlon.

Embarrassed. I took a seat. won- dering anxiously what he would do. The hour for the service arrived. With calm and solemn dignity the minister walked into the 1;ulpi*. Then he looked down on me and smiled--a. smile of great dignity and sincerity. In the congregation cat a solitary child. but he com- menced the service as if the church was crowded to the wall‘.

A ritual opened the services, fol- lowed by a reading le-son to which I gave the responses. Then the

minister preached 9. short sermon.

It may interest readers of this column to learn that the first per- son interred in the Union Road cemetery was Mrs. C. Abbott, wife of a local preacher.

Governor Walter Patterson. first governor of this Island after it was granted separate government. was a son of Erin. having been born at Foxhall, County Donegal. History tells us that he invested the greater part of his fortune here, all of which he subsequently lost. He died in England. I brok- en and ruined man.

Early settlers had great diffi- culty kceping coins in circula- tion in the colony. To try and solve their problem, the follow- ing scheme was put into effect: Ihe centre of a Spanish coin was punched out. This centre piece passed for a shilling. while the rest of the coin passed for five shillings or one dollar in Island currency. This latter piece of money was nicknamed “Holy Dol- iar."

Later. leather notes were intro- duced by William Fitzpatrick, a shoemaker living in Charlotte- town. These were worth mild and bore the date I336. They were redeemed by Treasury Notes of the Island. The treasury notes were issued in 1790, by three commissioners appointed by the Lt.-Governor for that purpose. It was legal tender at that time, and any person found guilty of counterfeiting said bills was to suffer the penalty of death with- out benefit of clergy.

A count taken in 1825 gives the population of the Island as 23,000 persons. That year 18 vessels arrived from Great Bri- tain, and I28 from other British colonies. Imports for the year were valued at 85.38‘! pounds, ex- ports at 95,426 pounds.

Then, as now, islanders drank too much liquor. 54,000 gallons of rum, 2,500 of brandy, 3,000 of Geneva and 2,00 gallons of wine, were consumed in a single year. Thus is may be seen the inhabit- ants were well supplied with spirits, if not withlthe spirit of God. for Rev. '1‘heophilu.s Des- Brisay was the only Protestant minister for many years; he was appointed rector of "the Parish of Charlotte" by Royal Warrant

Then he did a. beautiful thing. He left the pulpit and came down to the altar to receive my offering. As he did this he placed his hand on my head. I can feel the thrill and sensation of that gentle touch to this duty.

In walking back to my seat that day I knew this man's God was a real God, and that his faith was God-like in its monumental sim- plicity. It left a. lump in my throat and I cannot think of it even today

"It's the Irish in me!" she would laugh. And as well. one .could find a depth of sympathy there. But otherwise she was one whom it would be easy to overlook in a crowd, or might pass on a street without so much as a second glance. She was an uneducated woman, as folks con- nect the word with those not so fortunate as to have had the benefits of college or university training, yet withai clever and wise and most gracious. To see her with her family gathered about her was to think of the very essence of serenity . . . things like the blush of dawn or maybe a breathless night-iaii or the hush and holiness of con- secrated places, or indeed any- thing gentle and lovely.

She was skilled in the arts and crafts of her calling. as were the women of her generation, yet earthy and making her mistakes. but able to laugh over these and learn from the experience —- an infallible sign they say, of those who will never grow old.

NEW TREATMENT FOR. TRIO!- MINAL NEUEALGIA (TIC DOLOBEUX)

I have written before‘ about treatment of tie doloreux (trigo- minal neuralgia) in which the pain in face and head is practically un- bearable, requiring large doses of powerful drugs to give the patient relief. Many patients umierco surgery to obtain loss of feeling in the face region, rather than use drugs.

l"ortunately. it was discovered a few years no that injections of alcohol in and about this large nerve in the face gave relief in the majority of cases. The relief lasts for days and somtimes for years.

what may prove to be another drug to give relief in trizaninal neuralgia. is reported in the Brit- ish “I.amcet," by Dr. A. M. O. Camsbeii. Bristol, nrvgiand.
