I953 Gathering of The clans The annual Scottish Gathering under the sponsorship of the Caledonian Club of Prince Edward Island is deeply rooted in the traditions of this Island Province. From early days of settlement Scotchmen have assembled together to renew acquaintance, hear the pibroch or other music of the bag- pipes, and witness or take part in tradit- ional Scottish dancing, games and other aspects of a ceilidh. Tomorrow, following the custom of re- cent. years, a Scottish chief will take part in the proceedings. Commander Arthur Avalon Macliinnon, R.N., Chief of the Clan MacKinnon. will be guest of honour at what has been designated "Clan MacKin- non Day.” Although the MacKinnons will be putting their best foot forward to make a good showing in the presence of their Chief it is not to be expected that other braw lads and winsome lassies will readily be outdone. , As would be expected, where a main purpose is the encouragement of local ef- fort, the greater part of the dancing and piping contests are restricted to residents of the Province. There are, however, a number of open events which will give vis- itors a chance to show their prowess. We are fortunate indeed to have as judge of the piping and dancing a former champion of Highland Dancing of America, Mr. W. A. MacPherson of St. Thomas, Ont., editor of "The Piper and Dancer Bul- letin." Contestants will no doubt benefit by the comments which this distinguished artist may have to make in the course of his adjudication. Osonato lioforin Senate reform is a Progressive Con- servative platform plank in the present election and is also a long-term Liberal ob- jective. The need for reform is far more pressing than is commonly supposed. Be- cause the Senate does nothing spectacular a great many people assume that it is un- important. The Senate's powers, however, are extremely wide. No Act of Parlia- ment can become law without Senate ap- proval and the restriction on the introduc- tion of money bills in the Senate applies al- most equally to the Commons, that being the preorgative of the Government. It is this excessive power which is at the root of the Senate's apparent impot- ence. Being able constitutionally to block any measure and initiate almost anything the Senate is all too well aware that it has no mandate from the people for anything in particular. A Senate that exercised its power would soon be abolished. The prob- lem of its aboltion would. of course, be much greater under a written constitution than at present when the result would probably be obtained merely on the request of the Government of the day. What is needed is a limitation on the power of the Senate to hold up legisla- tion. A specific power to delay the enact- ment of a law for one or three sessions would probably be exercised on occasion. Senators would know that they were not holding up popular legislation indefinitely incl that they would not be endangering the continued existence of the Senate by taking R strong stand when it. seemed to be needed. For Prillc Ami llonllort Last March. when the First Lord of the Admiralty stated in his speech on the Navy estimates that Russia had the second biggest navy in commission in the world,, some hasty readers may have wondered about the British. On June 15, the day of the Spithead Review, Mr. Thomas follow- ed up his announcement with the explana- tion that the word "in commission" seemed to have been misread. He added: "Let. me therefore make it clear that the Royal Navy is in fact the second largest navy in the would and outnumbers the Russian Navy in every class of vessel except sub- marines. But whereas Russia keeps all her ships manned. that is, in commission, we lgep in large proportion of the Fleet in re- First Lord's clarification deserves wKIst,'posIlble circulation, says the Ot- t1iin”l'lo”urnol. The Royal Navy is indeed navy. At the Spitheud Review i 190 chips. There was one bottle- I there were nine carriers, 12 cruis-i rangement of a library. iers, four Daring-class destroyers, 25 des- itroyers and more than 150 anti-submarine lfrigates, minesweepers, submarines and 'smaller warships. i I In addition, it should be kept in mind ,that it was not possible to bring home to ,- the review any warships from the Fan East,l ithe East Indies, or the South Atlantic sta- tions, and there was only part of the Med- iiterranean Fleet and a mere token repre- sentation from the Reserve Fleet. More-i jover, the Commonwealth navies were also! fonly very partially represented. The com-i zbined total was only about one-third of the real total. i i Thus the Royal Navy, plus its sisterl ships in the various parts of the Common-' ,wealth, still presents to the world a very iformidable force for peace, and to the ,Queen a shield against all enemies. says 'The Journal, adding: "When we couple this might with that of the United States fleet--' as, God be thanked, we may-then we havel, something for pride and comfort. Oft times. we sing too small." Each 0tiIer's Tongue t Prime Minister St. Laurent has been telling Quebec audiences there is at least one highly commendable thing about his opponent George Drew-he has learned to speak pretty good French. ”It isn't perfect French," the Liberal Chieftain allowed in Roberval the other day, ”but we must re- spect his effort. I do admire sincerely his effort to try to speak to a large group of: our people in their own language.” Mr. Drew, of course, is not. by any means unique in picking up the tongue spoken by such '3 large proportion of this nation's people. ”It's a happy thing to note," said the editor of Le Haut Parleur recently, ”that our fellow-citizens of the English language are learning French more and more and making a. real effort to imbibe at that great source of enrichment which the French culture provides. In participat- ing in the expansion of bilingualism, Eng- lish-speaking Canadians are making their contribution to the great cause of Cana- dian unity, the one and only guarantee of the progress of our young nation." This graceful and sincere approach to a sensible living arrangement, comments the Hamilton Spectator, contrasts wonder- fully with the sour professionalism of our perennial hassle about "bilingualism". French is a rich and beautiful language, with a literary treasure store every one should feel privileged to share. More than that it is a courtesy to our neighbours to learn their language, and only the most absurdly prejudiced and defensive individ- 'uals could feel irritation in making the ef- ifort. The language of unity is not exclusive- ly French nor English, but as a bridge to true understanding, both great ethnic groups that have shared in the building of Canada should concede there is nothing better than to know each other's tongue.

With- in weeks of the need for more power for a proposed industry being made known a new line is being constructed to the King's County capital. The same word with two meanings is being used by the leaders of the Liberal and Progressive Conservative parties of the other. Mr. George Drew has been charg- ,ing the Government with "contempt" of Parliament, meaning usurping its authority. Prime Minister St. Laurent accuses Mr. Drew of "contempt", meaning criticising its votes of supply. 0 Gabriel Naude, French scholar and lib- 'rarian, died this date 1653. Born in Paris, he studied medicine there, and at Padua land was physician to Louis XIII. He visit- ed the newly founded Ambrosian Library iin Milan about 1620 and was enthusiastic jot the idea of providing such facilities. He persuaded Cardinal Mazorin to authorize him to establish a similar library in Paris, 'acquh-lng some 40,000 volumes. He also established Sweden's first public library. 0 O 0 Tag GgARDI.AN.gCHARLOTTETOWN Where We Sit F TH: euaoeem FARMER Ihg mo (snow) ms cmaouu as pi: z'an-449 D: It lzxnoirea, mic! oflorlnld -ttzxlandry Dru, 091142.. at L Notes Bx Exercise, wcording to 1 doctor. will kill germs.

D.Sc.. nbout his trip through the lower Fraser Valley while visiting in British Columbia. Being 1 resident of greater Vancouver and New Westminster for the past: forty years, I am well acquainted with the route he travelled, and I enjoyed reading his article very much. except for the part where he referred to the remarkable stone wall at "Essen- dale Mental Hospital”, being built by a master mason who was a patient, and who died before the wall was completed. In all fairness to Dr, Clark, I would like to cor- rect the information given him, and give him the true facts. He surely was misinformed when told, that the wall he speaks of was built by a pntleni. Quite true. the man who did build this remarkable wall without the use of mortar, was a master mason. 1nd 1lso my father, but at no time was he ever a patient at. Essondale, although he did have 1 few trusties working with him no labourers. Coming to Canada in the year 1012 from Oompbeltown. Argyle- shire, Scotland. he settled in Van- couver and went to work at Es- sondnle. where he completed the wall from end to end, as it now stands today. Had the Superinten- dent in chsrge at that time. not died, this artistic piece of masonsry which is almost one half mile in length. and in places as much of it underground as that showing above, would have been continued on around the property boundary, for he had planned to use up the tons of rock that lay scattered over the hill-side -when the land was cloned. After working for many years 1t Esaondsle my father was trans- ferred to No. 9, at East Columbia street. in New Westminster which is still under the Provincial Govern- ment and is known today as Wood- lands school. There he work ed for some years before being nupernnnunted. He pnued away in the year 1969. but his "great. masterpiece" still stands, and it has withstood every element. It is quite true, and it is very -noticeable to the passer by thnt the wall is not kept. in repair. 1nd any holes which may be seen are the work of the 'tl'usties. who like to pick out the small stones in their lclle moments. With due respect to the memory of my fsther John MncGougan, it. in only 1112' for me to make this correction. 1nd I can assure Dr. Cloris that my letter is written in good fslth, And without any cause of annoyance.

English grammar and that the Prince of Wales College is doing a splendid work in providing teachers for the graded district schools: also that the study of grammar is essential to the study of better English. A Former Teacher would have me confine myself to fundament- nls. Very well then! To begin, let. me say: there would be no English language as it is or as good as it is had European culture and literature not rested on n Greoo-Roman foundation, European literature has its beginning in Greek literature, and Greek litera- ture beglns in Homer," who inci- dentiy is not the Homer generally represented in us.

Colncidently the six-stringed guitar is a doublet of the cfihars (Gr. kithnu) which actually accompanied the recital or rather lntonlng of Homer's im- mortal Illiad and Odyssey. Homer lived about 900 B. C.. I"bring forth these and the follow- ing facts in order to show how funda- mental it is to us that the gran creators bf literature are tun- ed heart and soul to per- ceive beauty. poetry. music, and drama everywhere in Nature, like an Aeolian harp catching the least breath of air; that it is they (0! OH who lay the foundation for grammar and that grammar, 1 later growth in the general plan, co-operates so as to enable us to enjoy their classical productions. Greek poetry, music, and the ex- pression of patriotic and warlike emotions in song and acting were inseparable from the 9th century to the 5th 13. C. And when the Greco-Roman-Christian culture predominates, this idealistic fusing gives an added superiority to European examples of creative art. The ancient Greeks were the great- est loviers of ppctry. music, dram: and song that ever lived. When the Greek drama was II. its height of popularity fifteen to twenty thousand Athenians would 'sit in the open air theatre from early in the morning lmtillnte in the afternoon.

Such pro- liferatlon of shades calls for some lmprovizstlon. and many of the names in use show cublety and imagination. It may, nevertheless, be not too early to consider where this tencdncy, which has recently become more marked, may lead. Shall we read that the hostess looked radiant in 1 lame costume in rhubarb and old rope? will the bride leave for her honeymoon in a ginger-beer two-piece tweed suit, with cuffs and collar of bicycle- saddle brown and duckpond green hat?

MID! people go to the open o-. cesn beaches for bathing. They themselves.

When it breaks, the effect will be to release tons of water that will fall with great force on their heads. crushing them under its weight. Even ufter. they miraculously survive this they will be swept off their feet and washed up on the beach. Their noses will be filled with salt water. Great quantities of sand will have got. into their hair and ears and in the pockets of their bathing trunks.
