CANADA AUTHOR HOLDS JUBILEE Fifty Years Since Howard Angus Kennedy, Author of 'Canadian Fairy Book' and Biographer, Came to Canada from Scotland (By The Canadian Press) Toronto, Ont., June 13. --1It is just fifty years since Howard An- gus Kennedy landed in Canada, bent on farming, and dropped in- to writing instead. Long after- wards he did get a farm, nor was he any o! your kid-glove agricul- turists, for he never shrank from the roughest experience. The plow and the axe are as dear to him as the pen; only fate ordain- ed that but for a few years' inter- lude the pen should hold him fast, After ten years of journalism in Montreal, varied by a summer in the West as War correspondent throughout the Riel Rebellion campaign, he returned to Eng- land, where he re-organized and for 20 years edited the weekly edition of The TIMES; but all that time he was enthusiastically writing and talking Canada for the enlightment of stay-at-home Britons, and dashing back here on every opportunity to keep in touch with the adopted country he had so early learned to love. When at last his son had gradu- ated from McGill he pulled up stakes and came back to spend the rest of his days where he be- longed. He is now the National Secretary of the Canadian Au- thors' Association, which holds its annual convention in Toronto this month, The books by which he is chief- ly known to the grown-up reader are "The Story of Canada," "New Canada and the New Canadians," "The Book of the West," the mys- tery-without-murder novel "Un- sought Adventure," and a lively Gordon Brent, advt., T.8.

The very! first box of RAZ-MAH brought relief She hasn't had an attack of out uncle, Professor John Stuart Blackie of Edinburgh. But he long ago won a far wider and devoted following among the children. A family of four small Canadians hegged him for fairy tales. Having given them all the old stock, he cast ahout for news. A newspaper assignment landed him one day at Oka, on the Otta~ wa River, There he met an an- cient Indian chief who had fought on our side in the war of 1812. Discovering the extraordinary wealth of wonder tales handed down from one story-teller to another among our many red- skinned tribes, he.turned these camp-fire legends into such ig- ries as he had found his young friends most elamorously welcom- ed, That is the origin of "The Canadian Fairy Book," in which the stories are told by young Chief Ossawippi, as he whittled and strung at his snowshoe-mak- ing on the banks of the Ottawa, to the lonely small son of the white teacher on the Indian re- serve. United States editors and pub- lishers have no particular liking (to put it mildly) for Canadian stories, outside the conventional type built around the Mounted Police. Yet this book of Kenne- dy's caught on at once, south of the line. The legends on which it was based had no frontiers; and public librarians especially found it exactly what was wanted to give their juvenile readers an un- derstanding appreciation of the original inhabitants of this con- tinent, with their marvels of imagination--giving it not in dry doses of crude folklore but in the attractive style of natural bern story-teller. Under the name of "The New World Fairy Book," it has had in the United States 10 times its Canadian circulation. In fact, Canadians only discovered in the last few years that this book, for nearly a generation a children's favorite down there, actually belonged to our own country. Not only has it reached its ninth edition, but its author is now celebrating his literary jubilee by the completion of =a companion volume, "The Red Man's Wonder Book." A Los Angeles woman is report- ed to have left her husband six times and returned to him again in less than a week in each in- stance. It is this sort of thing that is apt to discourage the average husband.-- 'Boston Transcript." Think of All the Valve You Get! Essex is the first choice demand the latest features greatest value.
