Symbolic Torch

(Continued from page

L

HON. DR. W. I. P. MMMILLAN

The following address was given by Hon. Dr. W. J. P. MacMiilan:

On this historic and world im- portant occasion my heart and mind turn in loving remembrance to my revered and splendid teacher at Mcaiil 35 years ago, that gentle kindly lhan. that specially gifted and eminent physician. that great patriot, poet and soldier, Dr. John McRae, who immortalized not only himself but the whole Canadian Army by his sublime epic, “In Flanders Fields". How appropriate now are those propetic lines: Take up our quarrel with the foe To ou from failing hands we

hrow the torch,

So yours to hold it high. I! you break faith with us who

d . We shall not sleep though poppies grow in Flanders Fields.

Dr. McRae was the spokesman for those 60.000 loyal Canadian sons of the Empire who failed not ' in courage, in loyalty or faith in thisgreat commonwealth or in the justice of Britain's fight for Christianity and civilization. They wrote the name Canada at the top of the honor scroll of all nations.

They failed only when they paid the utimate price of mortality, and with "lifted blades in glory arms" they fell, changing their earthly status to that of immortal heroes who will be honored in this Empire for generations yet to come. and as a close second to those dead yet llvl heroes we have in this grea Dominion, those other thousands of noble veterans whose physical defects and mained bodies proclaim their great sacrifice and attest their loyalty to Empire and freedom.

It is a. supreme comfort to know 1111111 1n this Dominion and in its fairest. happiest. smallest and most zmportant rovlnce that we have not; failed o heed that injunction from a hero's grave. We have tak- en up the quarrel with the devil- ish foe, over 6.000 of the best of Prince Edward Island's young manhood, the largest percentage from anv Canadian province guar- antee that our sacred dead of 1914-1918 may sleep in peace.

1

We have caught the Torch. thrown to us from their failing hands. The Torch cf Victory is

here and we will speed it along on its triumphant Journey. Canada and the Garden of the Gulf preach and practice the slogan. "the most you can lend is the least you can give", and remember we are lending not giving. It. is a 00115011118 thought that Canada led by that splendid patriotic town of Summerside with its 2 pennants of merit and with this capital city a. close second has oversubsci-lbed the loan objective by many mu.

110B! as so also this Island province, this litt‘e England has already done. It will be a proud

day for Canada. for the Empire

1X18 and for the world when this Torch

of Victory reaches that wonderful genius with his God given talents, that lllustrous statesman and peer- less leader The Rt. Honourable Winston Churchill who holds the destiny of the wor‘d in his power- ful grasp. Let us thank Divine Providence that he has given us the vision. the strength and will to do our full duty.

Prince Edward Island has given the men and is now answering the call of the immortal Churchill when he said "give us the Tools and we will finish the job." We have loaned generously so that. our share of the tools may be assured. Yet we have given our men in the name of our noble King and beloved King. We have lent our money. What more can we do? As the Bishop of Charlottetown told 5.000 citizens last Sunday we can and must. pray for this Island, for this Dominion, for our Empire, for complete victory. for our for- ces. and for a just and lasting peace.

PREMIER. CAMPBELL

'l‘he following Torch Day address was delivered by Premier Thane A. Campbell:

“This has been s monln of par- adea and pagesntrles in Canada. A little more than two weeks ago the citizens of Charlottetown and vicin- 1W. the citizens 0f Summerside and vicinity, and of other centres throughout Canada have gather- edin scences something likp this ' to commemo mg the opening of the Victory Loan Campaign. As that 051111181811 progressed throughout Canada, it has been paralleled by "l! 1118M, of iltll Victory Torch which began on the Pacific Coast and will finish its continental tour on the Atlantic cos-st and will then be flown across the ocean and de- glvered to Prim Minister Church-

LNow the symbolism of this event Ls to be oilmaxed by the delivery

think it might be apprcpriatc to Indicate to you peopla its importance by repeating a few of the words which were used in the historic oeremon in which Prime Minister Churchi l received an l-Ion- orary Degree from the University of Rochester, from the very excellent address which was made on that occasion by President Valentina of

that University. I beg leave to guotle BRINGING UP FATHER 1

to Prime Minister Churchill and I- 5:15 m“ evenmg w,“ $1_510_5oo_oo_

to you a few words. He referred to the Prime Minister Churchill as "the kesman of Liberty and freedom. the symbol of Britain a- rousecL-stout in heart, direct in speech, rreerful in reverses. calm in confusion." And very cleverly he turned Mr. Churchill's words account on the occasion. President Valentine used this very forceful expression: “to few men has so much been given. of no man has so much been asked."

"And in response to these very pointed remarks Prime Minister Churchill spoke as follows: He re- ferred to the collapse of the down lrodden countries of Europe. and said: “Now tlze old Lion, with her cubs at her side, stands alone a- gainst hunters who are armed with 11984111’ weapons and impelled by desperate and destructive rage... Time is short. Every month that passes adds to the length and perils of the journey that will have to be made. United we stand, divid- ed we fall. Divided the dark ages

refium. united we can save and guide the world." And that re- markable speech was heard

throughout the length and breadth of the world, particularly in the United States and particularly ii1 this Dominion of Canada which. ol 601858, is one of the Lion's cubs to which the Prime Minister referred.

“And so it is vqy appropriate that to this man of whom, more than any other man, so much has been demanded this Torch of as- surance from the people of Canada. should be sent,

“The ‘Flaming Torch’ is the sym. bol of liberty. It fa the symbol of victory. it is the symbol of the de- termination of the people of Can- ada. to co-operate with the Moth- erland in the defence of liberty and in the defence of freedom and de- mocracy. In every Dflssible way, by arms. munitions. and monies.

“So far as munitions are concern- ed. we do not seem to be excep- tionally well fitted for manufact- uring purposes but I think we com- pehsate for that to a very large de- gree with our air training centres and in the past few months two magnificent units of the Royal Air Force and tl e Royal Canadian Air Force have been training in accord- ance with the Comomnwealtb Air Training scheme,

"From the point of view of men the contribution of this Province is greater in proportion to its popu- lation than any other Province of Canada. In that connection I wish to thank the representatives of the 3rd Division of Canadian Forces We had hoped it might be possible to secure a .vlsit of “D" company of the North Nova scotia Hirtland- ers c0“si.=.i:ing of Prince Edward Is- land troops ‘in command of Major J. D. Stewart. We were more than delighted when in response to our request not only “D" Company, but the whole battalion invaded this Province fn a friendly way. We welcome them most cordially, Not- only the men but the Offimrs. We are also very glad to realize that in addition to the visit 0f this Unit we are honoured with a visit from Major-General C. B. Price; Com- mander of the 3rd Canadian Divi- slon, by Brigadier E. W. Halderby and Brigadier Connolly, Officer Commanding. Military District No 6, Also by Lieut-Coi. Murdock who is Officer Commanding the North Nova Scotlp. Highlanders "In company with some of the other members of’ the Government. I had the honour last summer cf visiting this unit. at their training centre in Nova Scctia and I was most pleased with the esprit do clrps that existed between the men and the officers of that unit, and the people of Prince Edward Island can rest with confidence that their men who are enlisted wPh this unit are under the most competent and painstaking officers that can P08- sibly be found. And in this connec- tion I am very lad indeed that the program calls or an address by Major-General Prica. It gives the people who are here present, and who are privileged to see him here a chance to judge for themselves the calibre of the men who are in charge of the men of the 3rd Can- adian Division
