celebrated us one mm- idredth birthday few newspapers reach that age tbe majority come and go long before a century passes the globe has seen canada de velop from infancy and during its career had no small influence on the people of its time it was founded by george brown whose name was household word in canada as it was in the earlier days he was a scot who came from the old land in 1838 with ihis father peter brown who had failed to business in edinburgh they settled in new york and by 1843 had established the british chronicle which specially appealed to british immigrant j smxwsomtxmix

washington gid j often helped to roll the hut on tbe type the press was used for years after to pull proofs when the globe was first started the population of toronto was less than that of orulla at present the globe began as a weekly and on no vember 4 1846 became a semiweekly a trl weekly in july 1846 the clrcu lauon of the first issue was 300 the dally began with 6000 a circulation never heard of before in panada that is about the circulation of the packet tunes at present george the globe had a number of editors after george brown one oi the most outstanding was sir john wulison under him liie globe had great in fluenoe in the political neld he was a very close friend of sir wilfrid lauder and wro his life sir john made many changes in the globe m brown came to toronto to reporuj of poliucal meetings or events extend the circulation of the chro nlcle and saw a field which appealed to him he felt there was an opening for an aggressive newspaper ontario was then known as upper canada west and this was his field the chronicle was disposed of and the two browns established the banner in toronto in august 1943 under the title of the paper were the words righteousness exalieth

young george brown soon became interested in the political questions of the day the father could not follow the son in some of his ideas and the globe was founded by george brown in order to give him the freed om he desired to discuss freely the burning political questions of those days the slogan adopted by the globe was a quotation from junius the sub ject who- is truly loyal to the cliief magistrate will neither advise nor sub mit to arbitrary measures twc i tence has appeared in every issue or the globe since and is found at the top of the first column of the editorial page the stirring days of the 1840s gave george brown ample play for his liking for crusades in the political field and he was quite successful on the whole to the causes which he es i poused at first he kept prettv closelv i to the development of his paper but as he was a public speaker of con slderable ability he gradually became quite a power on the platform and na turally drifted into public life he was elected to parliament m 1851 as m for kent o the reform ticket in the early 1860s there rose a young lawyer in kingston who became a rival of gtorge brown he was not a tory of the old type and in 185 styled himself liberal conservative george brown developed almost a ha tred of john a- macdonatd and they became great rivals sir john was more astute to politics and gradually out distanced brown in the esteem of the public but brown had a strong ally to the globe and it became part of the household of many homes in ontario it was often called the scotchman tf what the globe said was accepted as final and many a person would not reid any other journal ttian the globe few papers have ever acquired such faithful support the globe did not ipp il io the majority or the peo i le is h c days went on he formed a goveri m nt wl ich was known as the browr dorion government but it did not ue long john a was too astute and its life was short george brown was a britisher and an imperialist and when oonfedera uon was developing he sunk his dif ferences with sir john a macdonald and joined htm in bringing the union about his at lit ide made the nego tiations much easier it was george brown who negotiated the purchase of the northwest territories from trie hudson bay company at the requests of sir john a macdonald but brown fell out with the leaders of the liberal party soon after con federation he supported alexander he did not allow them to be biased they had to give a fair idea of what was said or done many leaders of the liberal ranks protested but he was firm and the globes influence came back to what it wo under brown in the earlier dayj the rev dr j a macdonald ncttd presbyterian minister and i n uchir with great power succeeded sir john willison he was a scotsman with great fervour and no mean ora tor but he was a better preacher than politici speaker mr stewart lyon succeeded dr macdonald he was in c lined to be a radical but was a good newspaperman he retired in 1926 and was succeeded by mr harry w ander son who was most faithful in his duties and an ardent imperialist hi died to 1936 3 months after his re urcment his place was taken by the present editor mr a mcintosh on november 23 1936 the globe ab sorbed the mall and empire alter 48 jears under lhe control of the jaflray family it was purchased by wr william h wright who is a wealthy mine owner and

and no matter whom i talked to government or service people or just plain folks the story was the crossing lhe ocean mr hill became acquainted with a british merchant seaman who had been torpedoed for the fourth time this man could not say enough for what the canadian red cross had done for him at st johns newfoundland anyone who had knitted socks and sweaters for the men of the navy would want to go on knitting for another ten years in ap preciation of what these men are doing in escorting convoys under all sorts of weather conditions one of the lesser known services of canadian red cross is the tracing of prisoners and mr hill found much evidence of the speed and efficiency with which the canadian red cross worked and the resultant happtni to the prisoners family everywhere the british people talked of the won derful canadian red cross parcels and there were many repatriated men who talked of little else it seemed as if the thankfulness of the british people was brimming over and mr hill told of being present at a soda affair when an raj officer gave unsolicited tcs tlmony of the benefits he and other r aj men had derived from canadian red cross the ontario division s president

that the generous con tributions and the work of canadians have put the canadian bed cross among the leaders in the 17 red cross organizations represented to condon if the people of ontario realised
