the storm and spray tiiuiixh or the bkitihh mlotb dangkroufl trade our tea pilot are a littleknown body of men but their work u vital to the trade and prosperity of the country more ahlpa enter and leave the porta liarbora and river mouth of great britain than of any other country in ute world and a greater volume of merchandue of all kinds arrive at and leave our ahore than any others many of our harbor entrance ore in tricate and complicated the eatuary of tlie thames the greatest port in the world 1 extremely difficult to navigate pilots ore picked seamen who make a life study of local conditions at each port and who take complete charge of any ship entering or leaving great or small british or foreign when the present prime minister was president of the board of trade in the coalition ckwernment an mj took a deputation of pilots to see him and discuss with him in his position as the minister primarily responsible certain difficulties they were exper iencing mr baldwin was walking up and don the terrace of the house of common the pilots from half-a- dozen different ports were ready wait ing when the m p approached the future prime minister and sold i have a number of pilots to whom i would like you to give an interview what sold mr baldwin pi rates i didnt know any existed no said the hp pilots men who pilot ships in and out of our har bours oh said mr baldwin pilots of course i wll 1 set them immedi ately these men are in key position ships become larger and faster but the tides the ocean currents the shoals the rocks the fogs the mist the storms and the darkness remain u the pilots were to go on strike the whole commerce of the country would be held up but that they have never done and never wll do their position is so important that it is specially regulated by act of parliament their nnumeratlon is fixed by local board composed of nhlp owners pilots themselves and the harbor authorities and in the london district by trinity house if tltey are dissatisfied they can appeal in the last resort to the board of trade ships british or foreign ap proaching our shore with cargoc rarely know the port at which they will unload this depends on the markets and other conditions and they often have to wait until they reach the first signal station on the coast to be told where they are to go the captain may be sent to a port to which he has never been before and for which he may not even have the chart but as he approaches it fly ing the special pilot hog which shows lie means to enter and needs a pilot he presently see tossing about oft the coast a small steam or sailing cutter the pilot cutter lowers a rowing boat manned by two or three apprentices as the ship draws near and in the boat 1 an ollsklnclad figure who climbs up the lowered sea ladder he is the pilot and once he ha stepped on deck he is in complete charge of the ship and absolutely re sponsible for her movements and safety sometime the sea is too rough for the small rowing boat to come along side then a rope is thrown the pilot mokes it fot round hi waist jumps overboard and is hauled up the aide of the steamer dripping wet on to the deck shaking tha water from him like a big dog he will go on tha bridge at once and navigate the ship into dock for time is money and there must be no delay ships leaving for sea have to be piloted out just the same and sot time the weather is so bod that the pilot cannot be transferred to the cut ter or tlic cutter may even be driven into shelter then the pilot must wait until the ship touches the first port where he is put ashore and takes his chance of a passage home on the bridge the pilot gives orders to the helmsman regulate the speed of the ship and takes her right up to the docks and inside to her berth the worst task a pilot can have is to take over a big steamer in ballast which means that she is light and in strong wind is blown about like i bladder on the water if the pilot makes a mistake is in vorved in a collision or through an error of judgment touches a hidden rock he may have hi certificate taken away and be ruined it 1 obvious from tlie foregoing uiat the pilot must be men of particular attain ment great skill and knowing every inch or the their localtles tha tide and the intricacies of our coast sometimes the pilot ha to pick up a ship in the thames and take her all the way through the english channel leaving her again off some west- country jjort tlie channel pilots are a special section of the service and ore the highest paid of british pilot tlielr carnage goes up to as high as 1 1000 to 11300 a year but thl 1 exceptional the hlgheat paid pilot in the world are those on the river lloogll navigating ship up to cal cutta the lloogll is a very danger ous river full of slilfting shoals the climate is bad and the dangers from fever great these men earn up 13050 a year the earnings of the pilots of british port vary greatly at liverpool the second port of areat britain and one of the greatest shipping centres in the world there are 13ft pilots and thirty- five apprentice the first class pil ot who navigate the largest ships cam on an average fjoo a year the second class 600 a year and the third class taao a year at bristol the thirtyone pilot average about c a year each elgntyou duota at oar along a foreutn fishing trawler ror which tlie fee earned 1 only n itlie may be a 20000 ton steamer the biggest to enter ute number for which the fee for taking her some twentyseven miles up the river and berthing in ute dock u 33 a ship in ballast although ute most difficult lo navigate pays only halffees a 600ton coaster fully loaded pays only c3 10 ttte pilot is never off duty if a licensed pilot is walking along the street and ute captain of a vessel want to go to sea and has forgotten to engage a pilot he can stop him in tho street and ute pilot is bound to take the vessel out there are two methods of entry into the pilot service the pilot must pre pare himself for service at a particu- iar port or locality a it is a life study to qualify himself to obtain- the nec essary local knowledge he must be a british subject by birth he enters as an apprentice at ute age of 15 after a medical and educational ex amination and serves for six years each year having to pass an examina tion in seamanship and pilotage during the last two years he takes lessons in navigation at ute agt of jl he must go to sea in a sailing ship as an am before ute most for a year owing to ute comparatively small number of sailing ships in these days this usually means service in a coast er then he must serve for six months as a b before the mast in i foreigngoing ship that is one trad ing abroad after that he can take an officers certificate and must go to sea as a junior officer until a vacancy tccurs in his particular pilotage ser vice thl may mean a wait of four or five year more on a vacancy occurring he ha to is a stiff medical and local exam ination and then perhaps at ute age of 37 or 30 he becomes a thirdclass itilot qualified to take charge of the smaller ships after two years he be comes a secondclass pilot and after a further two years if approved by ute pilotage committee a first class pilot qualified to navigate any ship afloat steam sail or motordriven from calling schooner to a battleship the outer method i that of direct entry as ute master of a ship who has traded regularly to ute particular port lor four years and then after passing the necessary examination all pilots are medically examined every twelve months and their licenses renewed or refused ritovtdino for the aged that old age pensions in canada have become an established fact la in dicated in the acceptance and adop tion of the scheme by british colum bia which was ute first province to take advantage of ute legislation pass ed by ute dominion parliament the ystcm was inaugurated in ute do minion by that province and now the example of british columbia is to be fallowed by saskatchewan and mani toba while the province of ontario is also considering ute matter although no action is likely until next year it la anticipated that by the end of ute present year ute majority of the pro vinces will have adopted the scheme the legislation governing old age pensions provides for ute payment by the dominion government of onehalf the pensions ute province adopting ute scheme to pay ute other half ute offer being applicable to any province that care to adopt it under the legislation all citizens who have been residents in canada ror twenty years prior to reaching the age of 70 years and who have not means exceeding 1340 per annum are enuued to a pension should their private means be under the 340 total then ute pension paid will be sufficient to bring the amount up to that figure thl provide for a pension of t30 a month thl plan of providing far the aged and desutute is meeting with general favor every community has aged residents who have been no small fac tor in earlier years in contributing to the prosperity of the district in which they lived but who through un fortunate circumstance or circum stances beyond their control have not now sufficient means to support them selves the provision of a modest old age pension will permit them to re main in their own homes instead of obliging them to become inmates of ute old peoples homes or to be de pendent
