O O I The Premier personally spent a selves during the last campaign, and though his personal reception was said to be nothing startiinl. Mrs. Drew who is most charming and speaks French fluently was a tremendous hit and is said to have swung a large number of votes. Incidentally. another point in Mr. Drew's favor is that while in of- fice he has managed to keep most amiable relations with Quebec. How much ground there is for the reported Drew-D plessis axis is hard to say from this end, how- ever. It is true that Mr. Drew has visited Mr. Dupiessis several times. and undoubtedly most cordial re- lations, at least, have been built up. And in the Legislature Mr. Drew has paid tribute to the Que- bec Premier and has spoken of the strong co-operation which exists between the two provinces. There haven't. however, any major instances of this oration except for the case of an agreement on powerirlghts which was negotiated soon after Mr. Dup- lessis took over the reins in the sister province. been co-op- Mr. Drew's Whether lug-thu- visits after this agreement Ill concluded were to seek negotia- tions on other matters can't be said, but at least they didn't pro- duce anything. But also. however. they didn't produce any public dzsagreement and there undoubt- edly has been a strong apparent ha-Fmfllli‘ between the two proviii- ces since Mr. Drew has been office. And, even recognizing that "there was no doubt that a con- lldernblo assist was given the Con- servative cause in the election by the parlous state to which the Liberals had descended. But there was equally no question that the bulk of the people who voted Mr. nffliV into power ivero expressing respect for his leadership and con- fidence in an administration led by him. The campaign itself proved Mr. Drew a capable electioncer and, was particularly noteworthy tor a document which has acquired at least local fame and could stand as a model for political presenta- tions. This was his 22 point plut- form. This presentation. which is gon- eraliy believed .io have been main- iy .\ir. Drew's personal effort. was a concise, dotvn-to-carth document which Promised many things that people wanted in terms they could understand yet- which on closer in- spection (and as experience since has proven) was admirably broad from a political stand-point. Since then Mr. Drew has con- tested two general elections. in 1945 iic won a whopping victory. And in June of this year he was returned very comfortably. Excel- lr-iit testimonials to the record of his administration. In office the Premier has been a stable yet progressive head of the government. His administration has shown initiative and on occas- ion political courage of quite a high order. as instanced particu- larly in the introduction of cock- mil bars and the nir immigration scheme. It is true that the period of its tenurc has been markid by stable "Ollqmit: conditions mid a weak opposition. hut in the few in- iianccs of stress with which it has becncoiifronted. mainly labor trou- hles,__the government has shown the capacity to take problems in stride. There has been some icnd- I"<‘l'__to duck behind the skirts of Royal Commissions when a situa- ilon looked particularly threaten- ljil. but this. of course. is uii old canadian political practice. e o a A further achievement of Mr. Drew. which is of particular im- portance in the national flcid. is his success in winning the con- lldtffiblfl Ontario French-Canadian vo e. In the June election the govern- ment wss returned with six mem- bersfrom predominantly French seats.‘ Anybody at all familiar with Ontario politics knows that this is a redoubtablc achievement l0!‘ a Tory leader. For Mr. Drew, with his reputation as an Ini- perlallst and with a record of strong opposition to Hepburn’: sep- lrntc school legislation in the l930‘s, it was truly romarkablc. There have been many cxpiunii- lions of how this vote was secured. Apparently, however, it was mainly lhmllih good. old. down-to-eartii iiolillcking of a. high order of ex- ccilencc. lt seems that rather than through any one manoeuvre it was obtained through nssiduous organ- ization; with painstaking attention to the problems of the French rid- ings together with constant- re- minders that they would be better off voting for the government Ia ' he and Mr. Dupiessis have a good basis of agreement in their mu- t-ual opposition to the Dominion- _Provinclal taxation proposals, there is no doubt that Mr. Drew has shown an ability to get along with French Canada and the Hench Canadian vote On the adverse side of the re. cord there are Mr. Drew's failings Ito be considered. His personality. of course, ranks above all. Politically lt is no good. As a public figure Mr. Drew gives the impression of being cold. doflmatlc and smug. He is in the position in his home Province of having gone down to defeat per- sonally in provincial elections twice. And _at the present time. when he is without a seat. it is said there are only two or three rldluss in the Province which hs could contest with any confidence of winning. This is a straight reflection of his personality. People throughout. Ontario will say they will vote for his government but they won't vote for Drew, and in the test it has been shown there are enough of them who feel this way to swing the balance against him. O O O This defect. of course. would probably be of even more impor- tance in the national field. In On- tario. though there are large nuni- bers of people who don't like him. at. lcast it is mainiv that the" d‘.<“‘rii certain of his personal quirks. But nationally Mr. Drew's particular l-‘trsonslity will carry the added. draw-back that to a great many people in the east and west it will typify exactly what they dislike so strongly about Ontario itself. This could be a severe handicap: though it does seem worth remem- bering that the strong feeling which has existed in Ontario while it has made it difficult for Mr, Drew personally to be elected.- hasnt prevented his adminlstrar‘ tzon being returned handily. How much Mr. Drew's trend tn vmrit to run things has affccted' the administration here is bard to say. l-le undoubtedly has a tendency this way. His senior cabinet col- lciigucs say. however, that on the whole he has been quite easy to work with and has been very it- msmible to discussion and sug- gestion. And definite opinions. of course. are a ball-mark of all strong leaclers—though in some cases they don't press them so vigorously. It is probably also worth noting that Mr. Drew has been able to gather an exceptionally fine cs- lifnet. and though he has spanked the odd minister for talking oui- of turn he has received s very fzne loyalty from them. e o a The caucus also has given good support on the whole. though there have been minor rumblings occa- sionally from members who felt they weren't being given any cliaifce to get into the limelight. Whether this could be consid- ered a fault or not may be open to discussion but tbne is also lo lot of time in the ridlngs them-' ini THE GUARDIAN. cnaatofrrigrowu THE CENTRAL GUARDIAN This column is reserved for news of loosl interest, but advertising of s newsy nature may be inserted st. flve cents s word, strictly psy- sble in advance.

A theory which Mr. Drew undoubtedly had expressed l4) them himself. Another factor which has play- ed an important part in Mr. Drew's career is his tendency to hold strong personal feelings. His attitude towards both Mr. King and Mr. Hepburn has verg- ed on the edge, at least. of nat- nd. and it is questionable wheth- er it has contributed to his wel- fare. . In both oases the men concern- ed have been able to arouse him to such a pitch that he has storm- ed against them in public. There is considerable doubt whetner these displays have added to his stature. It must be recognized, however that the strength of this person- sl feeling has given him at the same time s fire which has kept him on the attack and probably has assisted in keeping his or- gamzation so alive. - Also. it has been noticeable that in the past few yeam. particularly since lvh‘. Hepburn‘s retiremeni from the public scene, there has been a. mellowlng in Mr. Drew with a marked increase in his re- serve of patience.

Phint Sorority was held Monday evening at the home of Miss Mabel Cummings. There was a largo attendance and we were pleased to welcome two more new members. The meeting opened with the business period. the pre- sident, Miss Fleur Hlillon presid- ing. Following the business the remainder 0i’ the evening was spent in knitting and a dainty lunch was served by the hostess before the meeting was brought to a close. On July 19th. 1948. the large circle of neighbors and acquaintan- ces of the lute Mr. Ambrose G. liiailctt of Union Road were shock- cd and saddened to learn of his vcry sudden passing. Apparently in excellent health he was about his work as usual when he was stricken with a heart attack and passed away immediately. The late Mr. Mallett was born on Feb. 5th, 1878 at the parental homestead at Union Road. He was the youngest son of the late Wai- ter Mullett and his wife Caroline Rodd. Throughout, his life he was en- gaged with evident success in'the industry of farming. He was a strong man physically, mentally and morally and by his active in- terest in the promotion of any- thing benefitting his home and community. and by his perform- ance of civil and religious duties he proved himself to be an exem- plary citizen. His was a warm hearted. generous nature that siiowcd the truc spirit of neigh- borliiicss. In his home he was a kind and affectionate husband and father. and it is in this circle that he will be most keenly missed. The deceased was a great lover of books. music and flowers. He read extensively, acquainting him- self with locai and national prob- lems. One of his chief pleasures was to have his family and friends gathered around him singing the hymns and songs he loved so well. The late Mr. Maliett was a loyal member of the United Church of Ciinudu and was ever faithful in worship. He was a dependable member of the church choir and of the official board and for many years served as a worthy elder of his church. All his life he was greatly interested in the Work of the Sunday School and was an en- thusiastic labourer in its behalf, serving as Sunday School Super- intendent or Bible Class teacher. So he will be sadly missed and long mourned here but his in- fluence for good will long continue to boar fruit in the life of the community. l-Ie is survived by his sorrowing widow nee ‘Fannie West of Char- lottetown. He also loaves to mourn one son Wallace on the home- stead; three daughters: Helen, Mrs. Robert Mutch; Kathleen. Mrs. George Shaw; Erma. Mrs. Mal- colm MacLauchlan and nine grand- children. One son Waiter died in childhood. Also surviving are two brothers, Hammond in C.; David in Mass: and two sisters, Mrs. W. H. Lowe. Manitoba. and Mrs. W. E. Hardy, Pleasant Grove. Following a short private service at the home, the funeral service was hold from Union Road church on Wednesday, July 21st and being vqry largely attended testified to the esteem in which the late Mr. Mallett was held. The services were conducted by his pastor, Rev. Thos. A. Wilson who spoke very feelingly of his departed fellow worker and friend and comforting words to the bereaved. The hymns sung were favourites of the deceas- ed, namely "Rock of Ages". "Jer- usaiem the Golden" and "Abide with Itfe." _ The pallbearers were Messrs. Chester M. Cox. Reginald Bryan- ton, James Maund. Harry Newman. John MacKinnon and B. C. Hardy: Interment was in Union Road Cemetery. Not now but in the coming years. It may be in the better land. We'll know the meaning of these tears. And there. yes, there, we'll under- stand. ciiiin 0r naiiiis Mrs. Ambrose Msllett and fam- ily wish to extend sincere tlssnlis to their neighbors and friends for heir kindness and sympathy in elr recent sad bereavement, also for messages of sympathy sntl lovely floral tributes.
