Z'aTH rM~maMwuvmuiW A~~4 Miss Ellen Elliott (Continued from page 1) came into her hands, she suggest- ed its entry for the Littie-Brow u author's contest. The prize cf $ 10,000 fell to Miss la Roche and the change from poverty to secur- ity paved the way for travel, study and observations and con- tinued popuiarity as an author.. She now lives near Toronto, in a home refiecting the Tudor atmos- phere of her English estate. Some Pocts Turning to poetry, Miss Elliot said that poets were the bane of her life. Strange cosmopolitan characters obsessed with the bizarre and diamatic, many who brought MSS insisted in reading thern aioud and some sought even to singi them. One of her favorites was Nora Holland, a littie Irish girl, empioyed at Macmillans. She wrote Little Dog Angel and many literaîy gems, many of which were set to 4nusic. Intîiguing character sketches were given by the speaker. She toid of E. J. Pratt, a Toronto pedagogue whose coilected poems geneîaliy depict the struggle between man and the elements. This joily, noted dinner host wrote Breboeuf and His Brethren, the excellence of which stemmed frors meticulous research. One of her latest thrilis was the discovery of Lt.-Commander F. B. Watt of Halifax, whose in- spiring poem Who Dare te Live, was a tribute to seamen. The at- mosphere was gathered from his contacts as Inspecting Officer at Halifax. His success was instant and repeated ceditions reveal that he has won a permanent place as a Canadian peet. Miss Elliot gave revealing sidelights on her con- tacts with Cora Hind, noted ag- ricultural expert on the Winnipeg Fiee Press, her habits cf dress and speech and her powers of obser- vation and forecast. After a world tour, she wrote, Seeing For My- self.4 Grey 0w! The speaker devoted much time to the steîy of Grey Owl, who popularized wild life stories with intimate sketches cf the tame beaver that came to his cabin in noîthein Saskatchewan. Persuad- ed to tour Engiand-and the U.S.A. as a lecturer, Grey Owl succomb- ed to the softening influences cf civilization, the lure of alcohol, and returning to his cabin, iived oniy a few weeks longer. He was not a full bred Indian and te those who feel there was imposi- tien in his role it shouid be re- membered that he made a great contribution teward wild life con- versation. Many other interesting sketches were presented for which we cati- not find space but in closing, Miss Elliot told cf Frank MacDowell, thé author who wrote Champlain Road. Before coming to Bow- manville, the speaker had toid Frank cf the invitation and his 0 response was: "It's the best town between Toro.nto and Montreal, bas the best churches, the .best schools and the best newspaper in the country; I ought to know for I was born there." Bowmanvtlle Boy So Miss Eliiot toid of the intense research that enters into ail of Mr. MacDoweii's writings. He has perpetuated the fame of Ste. Marie, near Midland, scene of the early missions at that point, and ail his historical novels are a great contribution to Canadian liter4ture. His method is to take a series of notebooks, each separ- ately documented, and from them, painstakingly builds his story, ai- ways a faithful delineation of the period. Other authors sketched weîe Frederick Philip Grove who wrote Seaîch For America; Kath- leen Strange of Winnipeg who wrnte Neyer a Duil Moment, and George Harvey of Edmonton with Ail the Trump-ets Sounded. It is regrettable that space can- not give the whole picture of an address, so informative and in- spiîîng, but the thanks of mem- bers, expressed by the President, gave enthusiastic intimation that the message of Miss Elliot was an unusual contribution, excellently deliveîed and indeed memorable.
