Are Guides At Brussels World's Fair Off to a great start. . . these two young college students are the very first ,to be chosen~as the official guides for the U.S. Pavilion at the Brussel's World’s Fair this coming April in Bel- gium. J. J. BowIen= Mary Lucillp Neely of North Texas State College and Jerry Oranford of East Texas State both (came to New York recently for uniform fittings and a grand tour of the city. A His Story Continued By G. MocEwon But the fact was that Jack Bowlen didn’t feel entirely set- tled. He hadn’t seen the west of Canada and what he was hearing about it sounded as inviting as a strawberry festival. Manitoba seemed a long way from the Is- land. but there he went in 1902 and was directed to a job as a farm hand at Carievale in the North West Territories. The stay was brief before the end of the first day on the Carievale farm the boss called the new hand to ,the house and Jack Bow- len‘ was sure he was going’ to be fired. Instead, the farmer report- ed that a friend living at Elva in Manitoba had been called to the East because of his wife’s illness and a good man was wanted to take over his farm for the sum- mer. The young Easterner ad- mitted lack of experience in wes- tern farming but said, “sure, I’ll tackle it.” And so Jack Bowlen resigned from his $15 a month summer employment and took ov- er the Manitoba farm. Evidently it was a good move and when the owner returned in the follow- ing autumn, his crop was in the elevator, summerfallow was in good shape and everything about the place was spic and span. Jack Bowlen’s share of_the re- turns amounted to $2000, more than he had been able to save in all the _eight years in Boston. With so much money he would‘ ‘llljlml I! lit!

But troubles were not over by any means: For three seasons in succession his crops were frozen and if that wasn’t enough to drive a young fellow back to the Maritimes, liisrfive horses died from swamp fever. But Bowlen was-n’t quitting and he reported with prid that he was able to make a few necessarry dollars in other ways and didn’t have -to mortgage the land. He fed his frozen grain to pigs and sold the dressed pork for five cents a pound. When the horses died, he acquired a team of ox- en; they were cheaper and im- mune to swamp fever. With these sulky brutes he hauled fire wood and sold it at $2.50 a load. He hauled hay and hauled anything that would give him a dollar or two. In that struggle to “keep the wolf ftromthe door,” Jack Bow- len began buying and selling hor- ses and in the winter of 1906-07 he decided upon a mighty gam- ble; he borrowed m on ey from the bank with which to buy a carload of Manitoba horses a- round Gladstone. The horse s were sold in the Humboldt dis- trict, mostly “on time” but~set- tlers were honest and debts were paid. The venture mu st have been profitable because Bowlen went baek for more horses and during the next 20 years, horse dealing was a major enterprise. Happening to be at Fort Mac- leod one day in 1903, waiting for a train. Bowlen saw a band of horses being driven through town. He learned the horses were for sale and instead of catching the train he offered $7500 for the 150 head. The owner said “sold” and Bowlen made out a cheque for the total amount,’ forgetting that he had neither that much money nor that much credit. Realizing what he had done, he had vis- ions of dire consequences but happily the Humboldt b anker had confidence in this young fel- low and the cheque was honored. Those horses were driven to High River and wintered at straw piles. In the spring, four riders equipped with a cook wag- on began driving the horses over Wilmer Blanchard whose Del“ formanccs in ‘Where’s.The Flre “Here Comes Charlie” an (1 a favorite of local audiences is appearing as Don St. John in “Abigail Goes Haywire” at the Community Centre on Easter Monday bvening‘.

It was in flood — fairly boiling in its evident anger. It posed a pro- blem. Would Bow1en’s party wait for lower water or swim the dan- gerous river? The decision was to swim it without delay and with some extra help, the big band of undisciplined horses was in- duced to enter the water. Even then the troubles were not over because nine horses were lost by drowning. At the Mounted Police Veter-, ans’ Association reunion in Cal- gary many years later, (Feb. 25, 1956) ex-Mounty Whiteoak was reminisicing a b 0 u t his police work in running down horse thieves. A gang of rustlens had been stealing from file Bar U Ranch ‘and when a band of good- looking horses was driven north- ward through the Town of Brooks, travelling very fast, the police were notified and the constable took up the pursuit. He arrived at the Red Deer river just in time to see the big band of hors- es making its way out of the riv- er on the opposite side Looking at the wild current, the policeman considered it unwise to follow and telegraphed ahead to have a pol- iceman on the other side inter- cept the horses and the suspect- ed horse thief. But the reply to the communication was not what Whiteoak expected: “No horse thief; just Jack "Bowlen on his way to Humboldt.” In spite of the loss of nine hors- es which failed to navigate the was completed successfully and swollen Red Deer, that centure the horses sold at a profit of about $10,000. Needless to say, the horseman went: back to Al- berta for more horses and for some time to come hywas sell- ing about a 1000 Alberta horses a year in Saskatchewan. _ HOUSEHOLD HINT Save unnecessary last-minute trips to the stores by keeping shopping li§ts. There should be one in Qrour kitchen, of course, for groceries; shelves should be checked for staples, too, before you head for the store.

The others are married, with children and grandchildren. I am sure that many of your women readers are in this category and need guidance as I do. So much seems expected of us, of time and material aid, if any- one in the family needs ‘help. Un- for it), I feel a great deal of fa mily responsibility. Why, I don’t know. I have a nice posi- tion and am not dependent upon anyone, thank God. Just where should we draw the line and refuse instead of ac- ceding? . . . I anticipate another demand in.the near future, when to a nephew whom‘I helped once before. My brother says (an- grily) that the boy’s parents, not I, should have met that need. FEELS GUILTY I am saving for an extended trip to Europe, the dream of a life time. and will be sinking much of my hard earned money into what well may be my “last fling,” as I am getting 011 In years. I will be termed selfish, I expect. should I turn down the request if it comes —- and prob- ably I will feel guilty about it. But sooner or later I must set a precedent in self-defense. How do I get off the merry - go- round?. . . . I am a relfigious person many times lave turned other cheek to keep peace and somehow I can’t reconcile my kind consideration. with their un- concern about me. I am known to have a good sense of humor —and thank God for it. To get slightly humorous, perhaps the solution of my problem is to find “a man of my own.” D. E. LIVING IS GIVING Dear.D. E. — In you-r letter, here condensed, you mention that your tastes and mode of living, as a lone business woman, are as foreign to them (mean- ing your married next of kin) as their lives are different from yours. Also you say that you feel‘ like an outcast at times, when they are discussing children and grandchildren and that you are dismayed by a wistful sense of their neglect of you, and ingrati- tude, especially during the holi- days. Against this background, you wonder why you continue to “feel a great deal of family re- sponsibility,” or, in other words. an almost irresistible urge to re- spond to family requests for help, whether or not such help is merited. ’ Well, I imagine the answer Is. you are endowed with a normal woman’s need to be needed. For a truly womanly woman, living is giving. Further, if you are a religious person (as you say) living a good life—-hence in a state of grace, to use the theo- logical phrase, it follows that you are infused with charity. Eor faith, hope and charity are fruits of grace (or-godliness). . And charity, as we know, is Christian love—or loving all men as brothers because they are and the fortunately (that’s the only word‘ sons of God. It is an act or feel- ing of affection or benevolence. It is good will to the poor and suffering. It is leniency in judg- ing men and their actions. It is pure kindliness, impartially dis- tributed. That's why you’ve gone on giving, in the teeth of ingrati- tude and exploitation, and why yo5i’ve turned the other cheek, to keep peace. GOOD TO YOURSELF Thus in giving without getting, you've been exercising your bet- ter nature, keeping it in health, acting wholesomely. — thereby fulfilling (insofar as events per-; mit) the higher purposes for which you were born. The functions of woman are to create- and to nurture. And it might indeed be a partial solu- tion (at least) of your _present distress, if you were to marry and invest in.a sustaining part- RUS'I."IOO @088 SCHOOL The following is the Rustic!‘ ("rm-ts School report for the month at hlarcli. - Grade'IX. 1.

I As for where to draw the line ‘in giving — “Justice is the per- fection of charity,” a theologian once told me. Undisciplined char- ity that drains the self is not true charity. Rather it is vague, uncertain sentimentality that benefits nobody. So, be fair to yourself. As the saying goes, “Be good to yourself,” and give from a sense of abundance, not ‘with a feeling of being robbed; Remember “The Lord loveth a; cheerful giver.”« The accent is‘ on the word “cheerful.” M.
