By Buhamah Scheinfcid Frank now ran is meant There are people who spend their lives tracking down oth- er people and there are those who spend happy days and years ,,,.,,m.g down words. sleuthing alter the word "neighbour" was fun for me. "Neighbour"' is a good Anglo-Saxon word composed of "neah" meaning "high" and ”gcbur". a "dweller"-thus the TIFSL definition (Webster's) of iinlghbour is, "One who lives (or ilweiis) hear another.''

"How 'far' is 'near"!" Can we measure nearnen in terms of distance or in terms of time? Is the -person who is re- movedtfrom us by the width of a narrow hall in an -apartment house. more a neighbour than the one separated from us by a hun- dred acre farm? Do the people of Elmira, for inatancehregard those of Tignish more as neighbours now when it takes several hours to get there by car. than when it took four or five days to travel by horse and buggy? Are neigh- bours more or less neighbours on P. E. I. when the snow-plough clears the road so they can easily visit back and forth, than when the road is blocked and it takes much time and effort to get through? I , C I Or.what about places off the Island? Mo ctorl is about 55 min- utes from harlottetown by plane and almost seven hours by train. Does it make a difference in the neighbourliness of folks in Char- lottetown and Moncton whether one is plane-minded 'or train- minded? Or let us look across the ocean for a moment. A fast steamer takes about five days to cross the Atlantic. A plane leav- ing P. E. I. at 5:30 a.m. reaches London about 11:40 a.m. of the ' next day, allowing ample time for stop-overs (changing horses, so to speak). Can we sing out. "Hi, Neighbour!" with more truth as we step off the run-way of the plan than if we come down the gang-plank of the ship? . It seems then. that in 1952, modern inventions have telescoped distances to such an extent that we cannot decide who is our score alone. What about the next definition of a neighbour, "one'who lives on friendly terms with another"? That is what we all know and feel; a neighbour must be friend- ly. But we still have the prob- lem. "How 'far' is 'near' involved in the word 'llves'." How large an area must be shared by those who "live" on friendly terms with one another?

Now indeed we have push- ed back all boundaries. No mat- ter where he lives. or who he is. any human being can be our "neighbour". It is possible for him to "perform-good offices" and he is "entitled to good of- fices" from us if he does so per- form. World events show us that we must somehow, some- times, include in our inventions a device to turn each "fellow be- ing" into a neighbour or-who has the heart to predict the kind of world there may be? The time must come when to be "near na- ture" is the only measure of dis- tance. Yet most of us can only hope to chip away gradually at the bar- riers that separate far removed peoples and keep them from be- ing "neighbours". We shall be content to try and put into prac- tice the second definition, "a neighbour is one who lives on friendly terms with another." Per- haps we can stretch our friend- liness to lnclude' those who live further and still further from us. out Indeed, surprisingly enough, we have been doing this right along on the Island. Old-timers may recall wistfuliy the sleigh-rides, the "frolics", the "house-time" of the past. and believe thpt there was more neighborliness before cars whizzed like mad along the highways; and folks stayed at home where they "belonged." But even then as a neighbour from Kingston said, "Odd ones wouldn't be asked”. And he also said, (he is in his late thirties) comparing now with pre-car days ”on the Island "More people know more people. If more and more people get to know more and more peo- ple. and learn to understand how much they need each other, and how many needs they have in common, there is hope, isn't there. that eventually the com- mandment, "Love.
