Joncs kept the 119 persous attendingt the anrïuai Jack and Jili Club banquet on Tuesday evening, Jan. 6, entertaiued in a fart inoving speech filied with amusing anecdotes but alsa containiug food for thought. Mr. Jones is the Dîrector o! the Canadian Council of Chris- tians end Jews, bas travelled widely, and known and worked with veople of many different faiths. Hé was bain in Eliza- beth, N.J.. andl ordaincd intoi the Mcthodîst rinistry in th,3 U.S.A. in 193.4. He bccame al Canadiin citizen a little over a yeai ago. Mr. Jones has spoken in Bowmarvile ou sev- e'a1 occasions. The oanquet was held in the Sundav Sehool auditorium cf 'Trinit.7 United Church with Jack Dunn, who with his wjýe Evelyn, was the 1958 presideut, presiding. With them at the head table were the speaker; the minister and bis wife, the Rev. William K. Houslander and Mrs. Housiander; the new pres- ideuts, Jean and Bob Stevens; and Elva and Ken Hockin, re- cording secretaries. Mn.

Mr. Joncs has been associated w.ith the National Conference ai Christians and Jews since its inception. Aiter quîpping for same min- utes on the fact that he had been asked ta speak on this oc- casion same months ago, indi- cating that ho had at least been in the first ton namos suggost- ed and not the choiceofaidos-1 ]poration, Mr. Joneýz went an to give club members a few thoughts on the ideal Canadian.1 Fun Out of Lite "To my mind, an ideal Cana- dian is a persan who gets fun out af i le and fin-Is enjoyment in bis own home and with his family," be said. "He should also fi-id enjoyment in his own work, though ta a won-an I suppose a dirty shirt is stili a dirty shirt." Nevertheless, Mr. Jones feit that ejoyment iu ane's work ia vitally important, as is a sense ai humour. Spirit of Understanding Speaking of bis own work. Mr. Jones said that he had aiten iound mort excitement than he had bargained for, and told some bilariaus atonies ta prove it. Seriousiy however, he added that he finds great satis- faction in building a spirit af understanding betwecn ethnie and religiaus groups. "To be P grreat Canadian, it ia necessary ta have friends ai ail kinds, ai ail races and faiths," he said. "I have iniends among the top business and politicai figures ai Canada, but I arn alsoaa friend cf the Chinese gentleman Who enjoys the asat draps from the bottles at the back door if the Silver Rail. My office is up abave, and as I frequently ar- rive befare the front doar is unlocked, I meet my Chine3e friend in the alley quite aiten. In Brothcrhood Wcek, I preach- cd at the Fred Victor Mission in the morning and Timothy Eaton Memorial Church at night. 1 feit equaliy at home ln bath." he said. A Love of Canada A love o! Canada is also a requirement ai a good Cana- dian, Mr. Jones statcd, aud added that he thought New Canadians aiten appreciated this country more than those born here.

Mr. Jones was born in the U. S. and spent a good part of his lif there. It xvas an even bigger step for his wife, one of whoie forebears was a signer of the Declaration af Independence. "lWe have many racial groups in Canada," said Mr. Jones, "but it is not a melting pot. F our and a half million Freneju Canadians don't meit easily,'1 he added with a grn. "Each group maintains its ide'i- tity, but there is unity in di- versitr"." A Person of Integrlty The ideal Canadian is a per- san of integrity and righteauJ- ness, Mr. Jones continued. He urged those present ta do their part ta elect men of this type to politîcal and other offices. An ideal Canadian is also God- fearing, he said, and urged par- ents ta set a good example for chlldren in their homes. "If Canadians try ta incorporate these aualities and use their influence ta spread themn, I think Canada will hold its own and also make the whole warld a better place in which ta live," hie said in conclusion. Mrs. Douglas Kemp fittingly expressed the appreciation of the club ta the speaker. The president in adding his thanks, also took the opportunity of presenting a cheque to Mr. Jones for the Brotherhood work in which he is engaged.

W. thought Mr. Janvrln's story of bis struggle against adverslty was worth reetnand with bis permission, have made it the basis of this advertlsemnt. FnoE YEARS AGO, shortly after bis arrvail n Canada witb bis wife and three children, Mr. Janvnin had occasion to cash a choque at bis local B cf M branch in Toronto. "Although I had told the manager that I was just an im- migrant," he recalîs, "ho invited me ta open an accotint, and It was gratifying ta nme ta feel that my confidence in the. future cf Canada was recipracated by the Bank of Montreal. Two or three weeks later I opcned an account at that brancb." Like most newcomcns ta Canada, Mr. Janvrin had only cnough capital when ho arrived ta get himself scttled, and eventually hc found himself short ini meeting the final pay- ment on bis car, whicb was essential in bis new job as a salesman. Sa bc talked over hi% problem wth hi% B of M manager, wvho considered him a good enough risk ta advance him the money he needed. But let Mn. avrin continue the story in bis own words: 'I mention this because bankers arc sometimes charged with being little more than moneylenders and usuners, but in this instance, I knew .~,...~ , ~that the Bank of Montreal .~was acting as it were on bebalf of the people of Canada in helping m to get established in mucb the >same way as in pioncer days the Bank of Montreal must bave advanced funds ta immigrants ta purchase sed, a few implements and myea tcam cf borses.
