E. Stephenson, M.P., Durham g, County, with an account of his in career and bis work in the House it o! Commons. We quote the story ir as follows: "If any member of parliament can dlaimn to represent 'Mr. John esCanuck,' none bas a better right D_ than Charlie Stephenson, the e, member for Durham County. 's Lives such as bis are the very in warp and woof of the Canadian le fabric. rS Friendly Charlie Stephenson is* le entirely witbout pretensions. He has no grandiloquent idea that he bas been called upon to lead the le people. But he has the bonesty, S, sincerity and determination cf )fpurpose wbich, coupled with tire- ýless energy, have carried hlm to Snatural leadership in bis com- Amunity and made hlm the logical choice to represent tbemn in Par- y liament. h There is one story that prob- [- ably tells better than any other it tbe regard in which be is beld. ýs Some years ago, municipal elec- r tion time was rolling around in hPort Hope. Some of the leading -citizens decîded they needed a d new mayor. Stephenson had nev- er had any town counicil experi- ence but it was agreed be sbould be the man. But "Charlie" was iii in bed and would bave to re- main there for some time. Nev- ertheless a delegation visited him, gained bis permission and then swept bim into office with a re- cord majority. Born in Unionville 50 years ago, Charlie Stephenson lost bis father when he was 13 and he learned about life the "bard way. " Wben h e was 16 during the First World War, be tried to join the army but they discovered bis age so be went West to farm with bis bro- ther in Saskatchewan. He tried again later and this time got in- to a machine gun unit but too late to see service outside Canada. Back on the farm, be became the victim o! crop failures and turned to selling cars. That led him to a garage and a car agencyr in Port Hope in 1926 and he stay-i ed to grow up with the town. Now be bas a very considerable stake in the community. He be-s came president o! the Board ofa Trade, be served tbree terms asr mnayor, he is a member of the Ganaraska Advisory Board, past president of the Rotary Club, at Past Master and Grand Lodge 0f- r ficer in the Masonic Order andb bas headed numberless useful p committees and projects. Hoc- key ,base-ball and choir singinge bave been among bis interests. t He married a Caledonia girl of United Emoîire Loyalist stock in 1925 and tbey bave two daugh- t ters. It may be said that Charliev Stephenson's story is the story of t an 'ordinary' Canadian. Sure it a is. But it is also the story of the is ty-ýpical Canadian-an active par-g ticipant in the stream of Cana- a dian life that Parliament Is sup- aý posed to represent." t Mary: "Will you love me asN mucb in December as you did in bi February?" l Sam: "oh, moàre, sweetheart, t there are more days in Decem- tý ber." s q0aVu TILE . 09C each .16C each 96 King St. E. r Mr. Robert W.

The discussion topie wvas "~Do we want more immigra- tion.' ' We tbink a steady streamn o! immigrants selected on a basis o!

An educational systemn for teaching Europeans o ur language and customs would be well worthwhile, this system to be enforced. iIf these immigrants settie al across Canada and not in large groups, there should be littie dan- ger cf lowering our standard cf living.
