tfontreal Psper Reviews Career 0f Island Author
Reviewing the career of the late glr. Andrew Macphail the Montreal Star says:-
In s reminiscent mood in I935 Sir Andrew turned back the clock hell’ a century and gazed on the happy days he spent at; Malpeque, in a letter received by Hon Thomas MacNuti, then Minister of Argiculture in the Prince Edward Island Government.
"It was in the year i882 I went to lvinlpeque, as principal of the Fannin Grammar School, and n0 place have since achieved has given me more pride. ‘There was a. second teacher; her name was Fanny. But there was s legend of a mysterious endowment the gift of Lady Fanning,
How the "mysterious endow- ment" brought new life to the school is explained. The long desks and benches ivithout backs were replaced by "desks and seats of the most modern kind."
"We were proud of the schoo." continued Sir Andrew. "but I had always a sense of shame that I ivnv paid so much for doing so little. I had $380 a year. My board cost me $80. In those three roars I had saved enough to ven- fure into a wider world." In his early college

“He has been called our Gloomy’ Andrew before; and mustbccalled it again. In truth it isn't always c-l-sy to tell when he is laughing rind when he is weeping; because. in contradiclion of the French proverb which says you can't suck and blow at the some time. ii laughs, laments and lambostes with the same syllables.
“Young Mocphsil won a. scholar- ship at McGlll in his native I-"flnce Eldward Island, and so completed the journey to Montreal which his grandfather did not finish because he was wrecked on the island with only a spinning wheel and a copy of Horzue, and by means of live i- hood grandfather thought it better to use Horaces forms than to spin his own, and started a Latin school. The future gloornsier had to support the scholarship with his pcn -—hence the period on the vivisection he wrote in the thick of his final exam."
Shot By Crazy Man
sir Andrew had a narrow escape from death at the hands of a demented would-be assassin in Novbmbczg 1921, when he was shot through the riwht. shoulder by a man named Ogulnik in the doc- tor's office on Peel Street. After his unsuccerslul attempt the man shot himself and died almost instuzitli". lvionomanio. taking the form of a violent hallucination. is believed to have caused Ogulnik to commit his tragic act.

Proceeding to the front, Dr. Macphail was in the thick of the severe fighting. in which the Cana- dllms were engaged in 1916 and 1917. including the bottle of Vlmy Ridge. He was promoted to therank of captain on the field, and in June, i917. achieved his maiority in connection with the Canadian Arm Medical Headquarters in Lon on»

MacPhsil. was also at the front. having resigned his engineering chair. in order to g0 on active oer-
vice. Delivered Cnvendish Tacture
In June, 191'], while at the front in.F'rs.noe, Sir Andrew (then Cep- lain Mocphsill was honored an invitation to deliver n. Cavendish lecture in London. He was at the time serving with No. 6 Field Am- bullmce. The lecture. delivered before the West London Medloo- Chirurgical Society was heard by a brilliant scientif c audience. The meeting was the great annual event in medical circles and Cap- lain Macphail was recalled from fiance by the Win- Office for the occasion. Sir William Osler was nrevioubly the only Canadian so honored.
His theme wss "A Day's Work" namely. the taking of Vimy Ridge.
y process of the seiectionofsmall t lngs, Capt. MncPhail was credited with having given a fine descrip- tion of those stirring events. es- pecially the port played by the medical services in clearing the wounded were carried off and by midnight were at the rail head, dressed, eased, warmed and fed. Although addressing o scientific society, Capt Maophaii boldly ot- tacked the unmitigated scientific relentlessnus which was the achievement of the enemy, but alien to the English race. He mode n. strong plea for adherence to those old traditions by which Brit- ain has always triumphed. and ut- tered a warning against invidimls efforts of theorists to change her lntemai policy.
Having been unpainted to write
Canada's official history of the Great War. the first volume was issued in 1925. In it sir Andrew made some striking statements and criticisms. particularly oi the lei-e Sir Sam Hughes and of Dr. Herbert Bruce of Toronto. Surgeon-General whine report on the Canadian Army Medical Box-vices was round- ly denounced. "Before I undertook to Write this history, I gave the matter serious wnsideration, and I decided that I would write the way history should be written: as though everyone who had played a. port in it were dead. I have found that they were not dead."
Thus commented Sir Andrew Mscphaii on the spirit that actuat- ed him in writing on official record of the art played b the Canadian forces n the Great. or, and upon violent attacks of critics, known and anonymous.

The 19% David Prize was sword-
ed to Sir Andrew for this wax his-
tory.
Several years later (1984) Sir Andrew followed up his war his- tory denunciations at an Empire Club luncheon in Toronto when he declared that Britain's battles in the Great War were "dictated not by militar principles but; by French poitlcal necessity.” He pictured Britain as an ally notion sending forth thousands of men to their doom in a futile ut- tempt to appease insatiable French demands based on agreements few in England knew existed.
“We surrendered the conduct of the war to the French.” Sir Andrew sold. “We have been the victims of their mistaken strute, and their internal political disor ers . . The Somme was fought to relieve Ver- clun . . . Pnsschendocle was tough‘ to cover up the mutiny of l6 divi- sions following Nivelle's mod dis- aster - . . ."
Sir Andrew said that those who spoke lightly of Sir Douglas l-lai‘ and the British army would do well to remember the conditions under which they worked.
Royal Society's Award
'I'he Royal Society of Canada in 196D awarded Sir Andrew the Lorne Pierce medal which is awarded "to Fellows of the Royal society of Canada or others who are citizens of Canada, who shall have nocom lished in imaginative or critical lterature some achieve- ment of especial significance and conspicuous merit. Literary critic- ism deallng with Canadian sub- jects shall receive rior considera- tion in this awn: over critical works which have not for their subject. Canadian themes.
In presenting this medal to Sir Andrew Macphail, Dr. A. 8. Eve sold: "The society is conferring it on one in every way worthy oi the honor. and fitted to tlke his place among those to whom this distinc- tion has already fallen. Sir Andrew Mecphail had had a. career in which success and honor have come him in various spheres-in the pro- fession of medicine in letters, and in the’ defence of his country under
arms.
Among Sir Axidrew‘; outstanding literary creations, Dr. Eve refer- red to “Essays in Puritanism." "'I‘he Vine of Sibmah," "History of the Medical Services" and "Th Persons." He also spoke of Sir Andrew's work in the “University Magazine" to the rank of a. notional liticai and literary periodical of t e first. class. V
Many fay Tribute
"MoGill University has lost one of its most outstanding and charac- teristic rofessors," Sir Edward Beatty, haneeilor of the Unl- vcrsity. declared "Sir Andrew had an individuality all his own, and a ‘distinction which equalled it. His literary attainments were consid- erable. and his lo experience as a teacher and me cal man are well known,
"He was o great student; of the history of medicine and a. greet professor. There is little a man of my generation can add about a
tintition atllhllzis own." h " rogre passing very muc ." said Dr. I". Scott Mackenzie rin- ci l of the Presbyterian do loge, " regarded him as a close friend and a warm supporter of the O01- lege. He nttended moot of our oon- vocotions and took a. deep interest in the work we are doing.
"He mode an outstanding eon- tribution to education h chosen field and his passing is t great loco to all of us.’
Dr. Grant Fleming, dean of the Medical Faculty of McGill: "Sir Andrew Mocpheil will aways be remembered ls a mun oi unsusl abilit . with n. distinctive person- ality. His posoin is a very moi loss to the Fiwui y of Medicine, to

Dr. R. H. If. Hardisty: "I feel it l; privilege to pay tribute to the memor of Sir Andrew Macphnil. As a allow-officer of his in the 6th Field Ambulance during the Great War. one had on 0 Ii|$1 of realizing his stron c ctu. his some of dut on patriotism

“It stands to reason you can't do that all day. 1'11 call for you at Pgppys about three," sold Rufus as J in. waving a long cigarette hold- er, came towards them. ~ Lindsay found POPDY talking to Clayton Hall. "I love Julia's parties." said Clayton, ladllng him- self another cupful of punch. "New that's vaguely reminiscent of a nursery rhyme. Oh, I know. ‘I love little pussy, her coat is so warm.

"They come in very handy," said Clayton, “Now this one is as apt w- day as 18st. week. ‘Tommy Snooks and Bessie Brooks were wslkin out one Sunday. Said Tommy Snoo to Bessie Brooks, tomorrow will be Monday.‘ "
Lindsay laughed. "The things that bothered me about Mother Goose as I remember now is the rhyming Dir-rt. Take Dr. Foster. ‘Dr. Foster went to Gloucester in a. shower of rain. He stepped into a puddle up to his middle and never went there again.‘ 1 never could decide whe- ther to say ‘muddle’ 0r ‘piddle."'
