No doubt this is an over- there is enough being Wmnugiiy on guard. particularly 4,-., what. pertains to education. pub- be if nristaken time others are res statement. but t:":'.h in it to warrant our ilc morality and reading habits. lVe are living in an experimen- lal era in which novelty has be- crme a byword. So many theories me being taken up and set aside mar it is difficult to keep abrea of them. Before we pay any serious mention to any of them. we ought to be sure to consult the exper- lrnce of others who have tried them. it is of intellectual communication modern times. for a book written .-.-2..-5 ago in England, Germany or Yraiice to be only now making it- self felt on this continent. some might be inclined to re- gard this kind of retarded action at quite impossible. But it is not impossible at all; and the recent flurry over the wrilinizs of the French writer Andre Gide is t.-ise in point. A few years back the works of Gine began to flood the bookstores n' Paris. He became widely acknow- lr-zlged as a prophet and moraiist. though by Christian standards hs complete mor iciversion. The linmediale effect of his books was to debauch a whole was advocating generation. Parisan youth we p.ii-ticularly infected. with the re- s-ilt. that, for a time at least looked as though clean living and inch thinking would be no more. Gide seemed to be offering a means rt" escape from the things iii are apt to strike the young as re- prr-sslve and boresome. In time the intoxication hcgan wear off. but not before irreparable harm had been done to the nation at large. Gradually Gide's writings were relegated to that peculiarly "For export continental category; only." The foreign students Paris. who form cotcries around men like Gide and Sartre, contin- ill'd to worship him. but his real influence came at last to an end. Today Gide is passing into a new phase. He is being translated into English and. if report be true, reaching an ever-growing circle English and American the question of readinz: ,.;i:ch I should like especially to mug up today. It is only too poss- ihie, due to a surprising breakdown readers. ment preached by our Lord, not flight from the material in order to achieve the spiritual. but flight from everything in order to be re- captive of the whether it is good or evil. "I hated places where a man thinks to find ies ; the fidelities of love, and attach- new thing should always find the whole of us wholly available." I O U at lll.IlllI,V for its own sake! But never any- thing for the truth that may be in it may promote. It is this distorted kind of thinking which leads dir- ectiy to distorted morality. In anot.her place. Gide advocates a philosophy of complete indecis- ion. or as he called it, indetermin- rlililty. Invited to take a walk with ayounc ladv. a certain Boris re- plies: "Yes, I'd like to. No I'd ra- ther not." To her far-from-sur- itrisinr: "Why?" he retorts: It's too lint It's too cold." This oscillating condition of flux, was for him a pattern of liberty. It was a way of life. and a source of art. But it communicated to the youngsters v.ho followed him 3 moral apathy tihich did mirch to destroy them- selves and their nation. lift now looks as though tihc Eng- lsh-speaking world is going to em- b"a.ce the rejected Gide. There is some excuse for succumbing to an old error in new dress. But there is l'.Ol'le for falling into an aid one in the same old dress.

There's a popular superstition in Europe that by putting bean seed in one's shoes the wearer is rendered invisible to his enemies. The seed, in order to be effective, must not touch the hand nor the ground. So to get around this ticklish problem. a piece of cloth is spread under the bean to catch the seed. in the hand of a mummy found in Egyipt was discovered a bulb root more than 3.000 years old. which, when planted. grew and blossom J into a beautiful flower - there's a case of longevity for you. can In seinil (Bohemia) the king is beheaded on Whit-Monday with A wooden sword. of course.

It is. indeed, a. matter for grave concern to anyone who is rnxious to see this Province take and keep its rightful place in the economic and cultural life of the nation. More than any other Province in Canada and. perhaps, more than any other community on this con- tinent, we on this Island depend on agriculture for our material well being. Anything that tends to hinder agricultural development must in the long run work harm to the prosperity of the people as a whole. not merely to that of the farmers and their families. for, of League of Canada are visiting mm.” ,h L um I d t Charlottetown today. Lieut.-Cmdr. ' I ” 9”" 9 " ”” ”' Emu, of Otmwa. ueut,CmdL goes on in Charlottetown. Sum- mt-rside, or elsewhere, is tied up, directly or indirectly with the basic work of the Province. This must always be taken into ac- count in any discussion of our economic problems. I am not sure that even from a financial angle young men who seek their fortunes in the large and industrial areas are any bet- ter off than their brothers who elect to stay on the farm. A lot of arguments attempting to prove this have been advanced but I have yet to hear any very convin- ciiig ones. There is. no doubt. a certain sense of adventure in mov- ing from the farm to the big city. and adventure belongs to youth But far away fields look green, of- ten much greener than they turn out to be when one is in a position to look them over thoroughly. Adverse Effect Whatever the cause or causes, regardless of whether the outcome be wise or foolish for the individ- uals concerned. the fact is that many young men who would make excellent farmus are turning their backs on their fathers' way of life. Should the trend continue or be accelerated it is easy for anyone to predict the adverse effect it will have in the next thirty or forty years on the whole fabric of our provincial life. There just won't be any Prince Edward Island. At least. not in the sense that so many of us know it and love it now. I Abandoned ru 7 SEEDS gum mu ca'ran0G. Arthur llossv York. P. E.

"Well," he answered. ”there'snot much left of it now. Father and mother have been dead for quite I while. There were only two broth- els of us. The other is in Boston. I haven't been back since mother died. My brother and I thought we wouldn't sell the place. as some day we might like to go back and Work it, but we haven't been able to get enough money together for that. Now its all gone to ruin and it isn't. worth anything to bociy." 'You would right now, wouldn't you?" I sug- gested. ly would!" replied this exile from the North Side. How many like him are scatter- ed over the North American con- tlnent but they would add considerably to the population of P.E.I. if they were in a position to come back, which of course most of them are not. What Can Be Done? What can be done to remedy this state of affairs? Probably nothing so far as the present state of farm abandonment is concerned. I think something, perhaps many things. might be done to check the trend so far as it concerns the future. It may be that the Provincial Government could begin some fln-- ancial policy by which it could come to the aid of young and pro- niislng men who are now kept back by lack of capital with which to purchase the machinery that to- day seems essential farming.

Every now and then, about every mile or so it seemed, my friend. who knew every inch of the coun- tryside and something interesting about each little nook, would ex- claim: "There's another abandoned farm". or "What. a pity such fine land is going to waste!" It was, indeed. a distressing sight and no one who loves the Island could be apathetic about it. Aban- doned farms. Waste land. Wilder- ncss, where once great fields of grain flourished and flowers grew. l'-lrstwhiie good pasture, now weed infested. Old houses. once the homes of healthy. robust families, falling in ruin, with no one to care for them or about them. Cold bleakness where in other days there was warmth, energy. and life. These farms were probably never rich. but certainly they were places where fathers and mothers found a measure of contentment and where children played in care- free abandon. I thought of the hardy pioneers who came to these regions. and by the aid of strong arms and stout hearts made themselves homes. They knew hardship,of course. and their lot was sometimes cast in dreary places. But they knew. too, what it was to lie down in peace. and I am sure they must have ex- nerienced a sense of satisfaction as d Y intangible values of life. I thought. too, of the sons and daughters. Where are they? What was it that led them away from the old home into new and strange tlaces? Are they really more con- tented where they are? Do they get more or even as much out of life?
