. .. But an important fact to note
about this newspaper (THE NEW
CANADIAN) is that four of the
eight pages are printed in Japa­
nese. The advertisements are also
printed in English and Japanese.
The point we would note about
this is that if the purpose of- The
New Canadian is to Canadianize
the Nisei and make them accept­
able to the great majority of the
people of the Dominion, the sooner
they all learn English and “forget”
the Japanese language if they
know it at all, the better for them­
selves. Presumably the reason for
publishing half the paper in the
Japanese language is because there
is a large percentage of Japanese
who do not know English and are
not taking the trouble to learn,
hard although we admit the Eng­

lish language is. Those who do not
understand English will only read
Japanese literature and some' of it
may be distinctly subversive.

THE NEW CANADIAN

=

Some years ago, I read a book
written by Roger NV. Babson, a
widely known statistician-writer in
those days, entitled “Religion and
Business.” I can not new remember
much of its contents, but I can
vividly recall a striking epigram,
printed on its frontispiece, which
read in effect as follows:

(Eastern impressions

For the attainment of satisfac­
tory re-settlement, therefore, we
also heed to have an adequate
guiding principle, philosophy or
faith. We require all the available
knowledge, but it is not enough.
Efforts are indispensable, but they
are not sufficient. Economic re­
sources are necessary, but they are
not everything. These are after all
only the means, by the use of
which certain ends can be secured.
And the results thus obtained may
become good, bad, or indifferent,
according to the guiding principle
or the spirit which controls these
means. A knife in the hand of a
kind-hearted surgeon may save
many lives; the same knife in the
hand of a man controlled by hatred
and rage may endanger and des­
troy many people. In order that
our. re-settUment may become
meaningful; that it may not merely
be a historical incident, but an
epoch-making event, which may
work for a lasting good, not only
to the citizens of Japanese origin,
but also to the future welfare of
whole Canada, we must be guided
by a. worthy motive, an adequate
principle, a true vision.

Maresy dotes and dosy dotes and
liddlamsy divy ...

(Ahem) MAY I BE YOUR
VALENTINE?? Okay, don’t get
excited—I’m just getting into the
Feb. 14th mood, that’s all—ah yes,
Valentine’s Day and 'tis Leap Year
to match which means maybe that
the she-wolves will be sending all
available and eligible males en­
dearing cards with the usual gooey
sentiments.
Going back to mine own “short­
pants” public school days, I rem­
ember when we used to have a big
“post office” in the classroom near
Valentine season. It was a big box
covered with red hearts and lacey
decorations with a letter slot in the
side—and on the schoolday nearest
the Day the box was opened and
the Valentines delivered.
I got a nickel—probably didn't
buy a horseshoe sucker with it
and buying a very fancy card at
the corner store—I addressed it to
the girl that I had a secret passion
for—a haughty blonde by the name
of Helene or something—I pur­
posely disguised my printing so
that she wouldn’t be able to tell
who the sender was—
And when on the 14th I didn't
receive any other except the ones

by Ser. 2a. r'bimiru

An Adequate Guiding Principle
* In this issue Rew K. Shimizu brings to a close his series of twelve
articles on observations and impressions gained in a lengthy tour o.f
Canada east of the Rockies last summer and fall. In his articles. Rev.
Shimizu has dealt with the various aspects of the resettlement problem,
critically examining- employment, social, educational and religious phases,
and has pointed out a course to be followed if success is to be won by
ourselves in adjusting ourselves to a .new life in new homes.
0 Many questions both on general and detailed points, however, may
have arisen in the minds -of readers. Particular problems such as the cost
of living, prevailing wage rates, housing and education may be very real
worries to prospective relocees. The New Canadian is pleased, therefore,
to be able to press an invitation to everyone interested to write in with any
questions that may interest or trouble them. In subsequent issues. Rev.
Shimizu will attempt to answer them.

“IT DOES MAKE A DIFFER­
ENCE: North America was first
settled by people in search of
God; South America by those in
search of Gold. The results are
apparent to-day.”
There may be some who will
take exception to such a sweeping
statement, but no one can dispute
the truth of the principle it intends
to convey: that the idea, motive
or purpose underlying an action
does make a difference in its out­
come. It is not difficult to see that
there will be a very notable dif­
ference in the quality of the pro­
ducts, between those wrought by
an artist, let us say, who is moti­
vated primarily by the monetary
returns they bring, and those
created by one who is inspired by
a genuine love for artistic work­
manship. No thoughtful man, in
the choice of his life—partner, will
totally ignore the question of
whether the mutual attachment is
actuated by a real love and a
sincere desire for mutual perfec­
tion, or by a consideration of" some
secondary things as wealth, ap­
pearance, • or social standing; be­
cause he knows that those motives
will greatly influence the kind of
home life which is to follow. And
’why do intelligent people ask for
a definite statement of war-aims ?
Is it not because they need an ade­
quate purpose in order to make
their present efforts, * sufferings, costs and sacrifices justifiable
and meaningful; and also because
they know that the dominant pur­
pose held to-day -will largely deter­
mine the nature and condition of
the post-war world ?

Page 7

Whether we are conscious of it
or not, we are all being guided by
some ideas, beliefs, or principles;
that is inescapable. In most cases,
however, these ideas are very pri­
mitive and unenlightened, largely
controlled by instinctive feelings
and environmental influences, such
as customs, traditions, or group
habits. They are not properly direc­
ted, controlled and organized. That
is why so many people are not
consistent in their thinking and
actions. What they build one day,
they destroy on the next. Under
such a condition, the achievement
of a unified, effective personality is
not possible; nor can any worthy
cumulative work be effected.

The same thing is true in the
social or group living. “Every
kingdom divided against itself is
brought to desolation; and every
city or house divided against itself
shall not stand.” A nation in which
the individuals and groups const!-'
tuting it are not properly organ­
ized under some unifying principle
can not have peace, security ox1
progress. It is because the world
has been divided under conflicting
ideologies that we see the presentday world calamity. To the world,
as well as to individuals and
groups, one of the most important
things is to find an adequate guid­
ing principle.
Our guiding principle must be
adequate to meet all our real
needs. It must not be too narrow,
onesided, antiquated, or short­
sighted. It must be true at all
times, in all places, under all cir­
cumstances; in short, it must be
universally and eternally true. It
must be able to guide the social,
as well as the individual actions;
international as well as national
affairs. It must be morally right,
socially just, and intellectually
true. It must not only be practi­
cal for our everyday living, but
also answer the demands of our
highest hopes for the future. It
must be adequate to lead the
world to-a lasting peace and a
Universal Brotherhood.

Obviously, it is impossible, with­
in the scope’ of this paper, to dis­
cuss one by one, the different prin­
ciples which are consciously or un_
consciously, being followed in the
world at the present time. Nor is
. it even possible to review the prin­
cipal philosophies of life which are
involved in the present war;

On the Loose. ♦.
By F. A. M.

that Teacher made for each one in
the class, I gloried ixx the tortured
feeling of unrequited love—I was
all of seven years then—
Maresy dotes and dosy dotes
and . . .
Then I recall the grade three
teacher—funny at that stage of my
life I must have had a taste for
blondes because she was one too—
gee, I thought she was wunnerful . . ..
At Valentine time I put in one
fox- Teacher and how I swelled with
happiness and looked as red as
a lobster whexx she thanked me in
front of the whole class—ahh yes—
Maresy dotes and dosy dotes ...
To abruptly change the subject
from reminiscing about past Valen­
tines—it’s funny but each evacua­
tion town seems to have its own
standard style of dancing, isn’t it?
New Denver seems to be the ack­
nowledged center of high, wide and
handsome jitterbugging; Slocan, a
modified version of same. Tashme
tends to smooth stuff although the
younger generation—i.e., the high

although I fully realize the import­
ance of doing- so, in order that we
may arrive at, by the process of
elimination, the most adequate
principle we are seeking. For the
present, I must be content with a
brief presentation of what I am
convinced to be the most adequate
guiding principle, both for the in­
dividual and the world. Lest any­
body may think that this is a con­
viction unreasonably dogmatic, I
wish to add that I came to this
conclusion after many years of
earnest search, through readings,
studies, meditations, experiments,
and sacrifice's.

It is my deep conviction that
we have the most adequate
guiding principle in the Spirit of
Jesus who said; “My Father
worketh hitherto, and I work.”
My friends east of the Rockies
will recall that this was the cen­
tral theme upon which I deliver­
ed my messages during my trip
last year, at different places
where I was granted a privilege
of speaking; and I consider it
very fitting that. I close this
series of articles on “Re-location
and Re-settlement” by restating
it.
That this world we Lwe in is
not a mere mass of things moving
without any meaning or purpose,
but a Universe governed by One
Almighty and All-wise God, was
the basic faith upm which Jesus
built his life, teaching and work.
God is creative, ever working to
fulfil through history his holy and
good purposes. He is also the
Father, who is ever concerned
about the welfare of the whole
human race as his children. The
meaning, purpose and glory of
human life, therefore, consists in
working with God, for the accom­
plishment of his purposes. “My
food is to do the will of him who
sent me, and to accomplish his
work,” was the dominant principle
with Jesus.
Jesus did not undertake verbally
to prove the existence of God or
the truth of his principle. He took
them as axiomatic truths, and
living on them, demonstrated their
soundness by the quality of life
he produced. “Ye shall know them
by their fruits.” The principle
which can bring forth a personality
like Jesus must be right and true.
Since Jesus’ days, countless men
and* women who followed his way
of life, verified by their experiences

the validity of that principle.
From the fundamental principle
stated above, we can deduce the
following* truths
for
practical
guidance:
I. THE UNIVERSE AS GOD'S
FIELD OF WORK. Ours is a world
of unitary and universal order,
law-abiding and intelligible; not
static but living and growing. This
truth provides the basis for scienti­
fic investigations and inventions,
as well as for a persistent re-inter­
pretation, re-orientation, re-con­
struction of all things. The feeling
that “this is our Father's world”
helps us to overcome fears con­
nected with nature and natural
phenomena, greatly facilitating the
process of physical adaptation
both active and passive.
II. THE SACREDNESS OF
HUMAN
PERSONALITY.
God
being the Father, all mon are his
children, equally valuable before
him, because he loves them all.
This eliminates all class, race and
other arbitrary distinctions, and
and lays the foundation of true
democracy. It condemns both the
superiority and inferiority com­
plexes, and provides us with a true
sense of reverence, both for our­
selves and for others. It he.ps true
social adaptation.
111. THE TRUE MEANING OF
VOCATION. The ultimate purpose
of life is not pleasure or personal
gain, but the creation of values
in the service of God. This gives
us the idea of “a calling or voca­
tion.” Whatever our occupation
may be, it becomes meaningful in
so far as it serves God’s purpose.
“All services rank equal with God.”
The most menial task may be
made sacred by performing it for
the glory of God; the highest call­
ing may be desecrated by making
it serve something less than God’s
purpose A passion for excellence
springs from this truth.
IV. THE BROTHERHOOD OF
MAN. All men being children of
one Father, they are all brothers.
In order to love God, therefore, we
must also love our neighbours. To
serve God, we must serve our
fellow-men. To work’ with God, we
must also co-operate with all men
for the common task of the King­
dom. This is no empty theory. It
is written in the very constitution
of man, as Stanley Jones has been
saying. The present world condi­
tion is largely the result of the
disregard of this truth, and as

such is a clear proof of its reality.

V. THE CROSS THE WAY TO
VICTORY. When we work with
God, we are nor to choose the easy,
popular, convenient, ox- profitable
way, but God’s way, however dif­
ficult it may seem. It is the only
way that will work in the end.
"The end justifies the means.”
is a very dangerous doctrine, un­
less it is supplemented by the
truth “the means determine the
end.” If the will of God does not
square with my own, then I have
to subdue mine; if it does not meet
the approval of the majority or
the authorities, then I must suffer
unjust criticisms, persecutions or
oppressions. That is one meaning
of the Cross: following God’s will
in spite of everything. We do so
because, in this law-a b i d i n g,
rational Universe, only God’s" way
of truth and righteousness will
prevail in the end. “If God be fox"
us, who can be against us?” If
we are following the true way, God
and this Universe will back us up;
if we do wrong, the whole world
will work against us. In doing
God’s will, we can banish all tears
and worry, fox- we know we can
turn even failures to success,
defeat to victory, death to life
eternal.
The principle here set forth
will have little practical efficacy
unless it becomes our own con­
viction. We must be possessed
by it, so that it becomes our in­
ner imperative, guiding- and dir­
ecting us. The best way to effect
this result is to surrender our­
selves to God, and follow Him
who is “the Way, the Truth and
the Life.”
Unless this self-surrender is
genuine, we are liable to fall into
one of the worst: self-deception
or hypocrisy: theologically and
ceremonially Christian, but psy­
chologically and in practice
pagan.
The Way has been revealed to
us. It is ours to choose. We are
free to choose the way,, but we
cannot choose the consequences.
We cannot take a train bound for
San Francisco and expect to arrive
at Halifax. Then, life being as it
is, an everchanging process, if we
do not choose the best, we are
forced to choose something else. It
is therefore, with an earnest and
sincere prayer that I close this
essay, that my friends will choose
the true Way, so that their efforts
to
achieve
resettlement,
being
wrought with much toil, pain and
sacrifices, may not end in disap­
pointment, but shall be crowned
with a glorious and everlasting
success.
To every man there openeth
A Way, and Ways, and a Way,
And the High SguI climbs the
High Way,
And the Low Soul gropes
the Low,
And in between, on the mistv
flats,
The rest dxift to and fro.
But to every man there openeth
A High Way, and a Low.
And every man decideth
The Way his soul* shall go.
—John Oxenham.
