LESLIE FROST The Iron Hand In Velvet Glove By Don to The Herald There were many many sides to Leslie Mlscampbell as you undoubtedly will have noticed in reading about him in recent days He was the smooth politician the gentle man the great compromiser Old Man On tario tuned in to the back fence feeling of his day OfallhUcjualities however I believe the most sign leant was his supreme deter SOLD HIMSELF This showed in after he won the Premiership Although he had been a member of the Legislature since and a key member the government since 1913 he was relatively unknown to the people of the province He set about to correct this For a year and a half he travelled He visited every the province In every corner he visited every possible location where there would be a group of people pulp mills hospitals industrial plants golf clubs His approach never varied He would move through sometimes for hours shake every hand available with the one introduction My name is Pros I work for the govern He met many open mouths The majority t know Frost who worked for the govern But when he left they did and remembered Remembered so well of course that in he marked up the biggest election victory Tilt I Then to the public this premier was known as a kindly sympathetic most understand benevolent leader But not to his supporters his troopers in the house They knew him as a zealous disciplinarian Before or since there never has been an attendance government supporters such as the legislature saw during the regime of Leslie Frost There was a very good reason for this Leslie Frost the kindly leader kept his own attendance record He had a little black book which he carried in his pocket and any member who wasn t present for a session was marked off Enough marks and it need many he was called into the sanctum and told about it Apparently told very fiercely according to men who had been called in They were dressed down to the extent that few ever left themselves open to a reoetition of the experience PARTY HIS BABY Where the determination appeared most of all however was In pride of the Con party the Ontario PC party Leslie and Gertrude Frost in their renowned marriage had no children On Mr Frosts part he peared to substitute the devotion protection and at of a fond parent for his children to his political party He would let nothing harm It On the hustings the premier of the fifties would give powerful speeches but speeches that were mainly altunedtohlslmageofamanof good will However when the party entered into them he could become a man of heat Four of his cabinet ministers George Philip Kelly Clare and William Griesingcr got involved in problems which put a blemish on the parly escutcheon They were sacrificed As the history books come out millions or words will be written about Leslie Frost They will talk of a great politician and a man of achievement But those that catch him most properly will talk of a determined man with an iron hand in a velvet glove Immanuel Lutheran Church Windsor Road at Carole St Rev Harold R Sunday School Good Friday service 11 am Easter Sunday a m Worship Service Mountain view Baptist Church Lin liter Rev W R
