SECTION

VOL. 15 —NO. 100
TORONTO, ONT.
WEDNESDAY,
Tli® Satiirialia & Christmas
By SUE SADA
Of Ancient Rome and the Eternal City, Of Time Yesterday and Today
This story doesn’t pretend to be his
torical in the sense that I’m going to
reproduce the sights and sounds of Rome
in the days of the first Caesars; or that
I’m going to reproduce the way they
used to talk in Latin; or even that I’m
going to be accurate in recording cus
toms, costumes, or traffic problems of
that day, or even social niceties. If you
read enough ancient history you’ll get a
fair idea of what life was like in those
days. I don’t have to tell you. Anyway
how I’m going to tell this story is secon
dary to what I want to say through the
mouths of my characters.
If you’ve ever seen pictures of ancient
Roman homes, you’ll notice they have a
sort of inner court, with what looks now
adays like a swimming pool, in the cen
tre. The ladies of the household weren't
allowed to mix too freely with the gen
tlemen, but there'were times and places
when they could get together fox* a nice
cosy little chat. Who knows, but this
indoor water-tank, or whatever it was,
could have been one of fhose places,
where a father and a daughter could
have a heart-to-heart talk without all
the servants listening in, where a casual
man-guest couldn’t barge in without,
permission.
That’s where I’m beginning my story.
:|-.
*
#
Claudia is a young Roman girl, aver
age type, well-brought-up, engaged to
get married, and all that sort of thing.
Her Papa also is the average type, not
handsome, not ugly, not stupid, but not
brilliant, not a coward and definitely
not a hero. He’s got enough to maintain
that bath-affair in the inner court, plus
several bona fide servants of the higher
type (Greeks you know, -were the style
then) and quite a number of slaves ot
all shapes, sizes, and ages, not overlook
ing the he’s and she’s. They really had
a few more slaves than they could af
ford, but Claudia, having a soft heart,
and her father having a softer one, didn’t
like separating little families, even slave
families. Well, little families have a way
of growing up. However, they did okay.
Those that were old enough, or smart
enough, found ways of bringing in a
few denarii for their amiable master, so
that the whole household lived peace
ably.
This particular day, however, Claudia
looks worried. She has her father wor
ried, too. Just listen to them:
“But Papa, I don’t want to go to the
country this year. Honestly, it’s no bet
ter in the country than it is here in
town! Those people that.get drunk with
the carnival spirit are just as bad there
as here. I’ll grant you there are more of
them in town . . . and that Marcus of
mine is such a ninny, he’s pledged him
self to be in the procession!”
“Jupiter take that boy, anyway!
Drinkers! Carousers! Rioters! Imbeciles!
The whole lot of them! Is that the way
for a decent young boy to act just be
cause it’s the Feast of Saturn ? Why,
in the old days ...”
“Now Papa, don’t get excited . . . the
old days’ indeed . . . I’ll bet you were
just as bad as any of them . . . ”
Papa is getting worked up, like all
fathers do when they love their only
daughter and wild customs of the day
scare him into a feeble attempt of pro
tecting his lone chick from the Bacchan
alian antics of the carnival mobs cele
brating the Saturnalia, feast of the seed
sowing, which had by that time degene
rated into a licentious seven-day brawl
when a decent citizen just wasn’t safe at
all from the drunken crowds that weav
ed from house to house, assaulting and
battering anyone they pleased.
Papa wants to hide Claudia some
where for that carnival week, but he
doesn’t know where. That makes him
frantic. His toga or tunic or whatever
Romans wore in the house in those days,
is all crumpled up because he’s fidgetty
and can’t sit still. Claudia, lovely girl,
looks a lot cooler and neater, but you
could see her biting her lip somewhat.
She’s got something to say but she
doesn’t know how Papa’s going to take
it. She’s got a finger twisted into a curl
of her hair and it turns this way and
that way while she figures out the right
approach.
“Papa, can I go with Viola for the
week?”
“Eh? What’s that? I thought you
didn’t want to go!”
You should see Papa spin around and
glare. Now he’s going to pop a button,
if he had a button to pop. He comes
over to Claudia and catches her by the
arm as if to shake her (woman are so
contrary!) but Claudia is smart. She just
snuggles up to Papa, until he forgets
what he was going to yell.
“Aw Papa, I don’t mean the country.
I mean I want to go with Viola. She’s
got a place she says will guarantee not
even Marcus will find me, not even for
a teeny-weeny kiss. You know how she
worries over me after Mama died.”
“H’m-m' . . . you know Claudia, you
get to be like your mother more and
more. So you want to leave your old
father, eh .-. . fox* a week . . . tsk! tsk!
Where’d you say you were going, huh ?
“I didn’t say. Anyway, I don’t know
. . . but Viola says it’s the best place
ever, and I’d trust her more’n anyone
else. You know that, Papa ...”
“Viola . . . h’-m . . . Viola . . . yes-m
. . . Oh yes, Viola! That’s right. Fine
woman, that, even for a slave. Pity.”
Papa was thinking. Viola was a slave,
but you could depend on her with your
A STUDY
and Jane Miyashita.
life. She was that kind, and she was one
of these new Christians. It was getting
to be a topsy-turvy world when slaves
had more character than their free mas
ters. So many of these Christian type
slaves, nowadays, that no amount of
burning and killing in the arenas seemed
to decrease them. In fact Papa would
sweax' to it that some of his Roman
friends were getting to act like these
slaves. In fact, he sort of liked it him
self . . . but of course, he was a Roman
of Rome, and he wouldn’t be anything
else. Nossir. It was the proudest boast
in the world to be a Roman of Rome.
But then, the way some of the Romans
were acting were a disgrace to theix*
birth. They had no more character1 than
slaves. Nope, that’s not right. Viola’s
got character, and to spare. In fact, if
she wasn’t a slave she’d be a fine matron
type ... oh well.
“Now look here, Claudia, call Viola to
me. I’ll speak to hex* myself.”
“Fine, Papa.”
“Pronto, little one ...”
Papa smacked Claudia where she was
tender, and she laughed back at him as
she scooted off to fetch Viola. Claudia
felt gay and young and happy, because
she knew that Viola would talk her
fathex* into letting hex* go.
Viola came in to face hex' master. She
was a fine figure of a woman, as the
saying goes, and she had the additional
charm of being quite handsome in a
Greek way, being descended from Greek
slaves of an earlier era. She had the
habit, too, of looking a man straight in
the eye. That’s a good sign, don’t you
think? No shenanigans there. Anyway,
everytime Papa looks at hex* he gets the'
flutters, because he just can’t rant away
at hex* the way he does to Claudia and
to some of the other slaves, or even as
he did to his own valet. With Viola he
has to talk sense. So, he sort of grins at
hex’ shyly,,and starts off:
“Uh . . . Claudia was saying something
about you ... or rather about her going

really ought to know ...” he trailed off
weakly. Viola had such a way of calling
a man a fool without saying a word!
“Master, I would never take Claudia
without at first telling you all about it.
I should have told you before I even
mentioned it to the child, but you know
how it is around this house. I never do
see you very often, and Claudia, poor
child, was so fretful about it that I had
to reassure hex' on the spot. She remem
bers too well what happened last year,
and it was just luck that Marcus hap
pened to be with hex' and could ward off
the othex' drunks that broke in. Master,
that was horrible, and you know it.”
Papa could feel the sweat rising on
his head as he remembered the mob of
drunks, all people he knew, acting like
the worst characters he evex* saw, just
because it was the Saturnalia. Himself
had pleaded his own health and had re
frained from joining in, but his main
purpose in staying home had been to
protect, if he could, his own chick’s
safety. He knew that a lot of other
fathers and brothers stayed home for
the same reason. However, what can a
man do when the emperor leads off in
such wild rioting, eh ? You had to choose
between pleasing him and saving your
women. Well, thank goodness Papa was
such a nonentity that the great man
didn’t even know he existed.
“Uh, Viola . . . it’s all right with me
where you go just so you see that
Claudia is safe. You know I can trust
you.”
“Thaxxk. you, Master. However I will
tell you where we shall go, because I
believe* you will not betray me. We will
go to that field outside of the city. There
is a tomb there ...”
“A tonxb! Viola! What’s this?”
“That tomb, Master, leads under
ground, and we have shelters there.
Claudia will be safe.”
Papa scratched his chin, and stared at
Viola. Why was she telling him the sec
ret of the Christians, for he was sure
that was what it was ? Viola gazed into
his eyes unflinchingly, evexx with a
smile. He smiled back because he sure
liked hex* a lot. He thought of all the
rumours he had heard about the Christ
ians. How they worshipped some Jew
that was hung like a criminal on a cross.
Ugh! Imagine being strapped on a cross
.like that! Poor man. And they said He
wasn’t even a criminal, but was the Son
of God. Which God he didn’t know. Oh
well, he heard that the Christians had
only one God. That was an advantage,
yoh know. Didn’t get them all mixed up
all the time. By Jupiter, there were too
many gods in Rome, and as if there
weren’t enough they imported some from
Egypt and some fronx Persia. Now they
even said the emperor was a god and
had to be worshipped. Fiddlesticks! Papa
knew who that man was, knew the fam
ily he came from too. How could he be
a god. A god ought to be better than
the ordinary people. All of a sudden he
felt an itch of curiosity. He shook his
shoulders as if Jto get rid of the feeling.
But it persisted, so he asked Viola, who
was waiting patiently as all slaves have
learned to wait:
“What’s it like dowxx in the catacombs,
eh?”
“Damp, and confining, Master, for
you.” She smiled again.
“Viola,” he really grinned at her now,
feeling more easy, “you are too smart
for me. I just wanted to know. After all,
I’m Claudia’s father and I ought to ... ”
And then he thought of something else,
“Say! Viola! This time last year you dis
appeared out of sight a day or so. What
happened to you?”’ ,

By SUE SADA
Of Ancient Rome and the Eternal City, Of Time Yesterday and Today
This story doesn’t pretend to be his
torical in the sense that I’m going to
reproduce the sights and sounds of Rome
in the days of the first Caesars; or that
I’m going to reproduce the way they
used to talk in Latin; or even that I’m
going to be accurate in recording cus
toms, costumes, or traffic problems of
that day, or even social niceties. If you
read enough ancient history you’ll get a
fair idea of what life was like in those
days. I don’t have to tell you. Anyway
how I’m going to tell this story is secon
dary to what I want to say through the
mouths of my characters.
If you’ve ever seen pictures of ancient
Roman homes, you’ll notice they have a
sort of inner court, with what looks now
adays like a swimming pool, in the cen
tre. The ladies of the household weren't
allowed to mix too freely with the gen
tlemen, but there'were times and places
when they could get together fox* a nice
cosy little chat. Who knows, but this
indoor water-tank, or whatever it was,
could have been one of fhose places,
where a father and a daughter could
have a heart-to-heart talk without all
the servants listening in, where a casual
man-guest couldn’t barge in without,
permission.
That’s where I’m beginning my story.
:|-.
*
#
Claudia is a young Roman girl, aver
age type, well-brought-up, engaged to
get married, and all that sort of thing.
Her Papa also is the average type, not
handsome, not ugly, not stupid, but not
brilliant, not a coward and definitely
not a hero. He’s got enough to maintain
that bath-affair in the inner court, plus
several bona fide servants of the higher
type (Greeks you know, -were the style
then) and quite a number of slaves ot
all shapes, sizes, and ages, not overlook
ing the he’s and she’s. They really had
a few more slaves than they could af
ford, but Claudia, having a soft heart,
and her father having a softer one, didn’t
like separating little families, even slave
families. Well, little families have a way
of growing up. However, they did okay.
Those that were old enough, or smart
enough, found ways of bringing in a
few denarii for their amiable master, so
that the whole household lived peace
ably.
This particular day, however, Claudia
looks worried. She has her father wor
ried, too. Just listen to them:
“But Papa, I don’t want to go to the
country this year. Honestly, it’s no bet
ter in the country than it is here in
town! Those people that.get drunk with
the carnival spirit are just as bad there
as here. I’ll grant you there are more of
them in town . . . and that Marcus of
mine is such a ninny, he’s pledged him
self to be in the procession!”
“Jupiter take that boy, anyway!
Drinkers! Carousers! Rioters! Imbeciles!
The whole lot of them! Is that the way
for a decent young boy to act just be
cause it’s the Feast of Saturn ? Why,
in the old days ...”
“Now Papa, don’t get excited . . . the
old days’ indeed . . . I’ll bet you were
just as bad as any of them . . . ”
Papa is getting worked up, like all
fathers do when they love their only
daughter and wild customs of the day
scare him into a feeble attempt of pro
tecting his lone chick from the Bacchan
alian antics of the carnival mobs cele
brating the Saturnalia, feast of the seed
sowing, which had by that time degene
rated into a licentious seven-day brawl
when a decent citizen just wasn’t safe at
all from the drunken crowds that weav
ed from house to house, assaulting and
battering anyone they pleased.
Papa wants to hide Claudia some
where for that carnival week, but he
doesn’t know where. That makes him
frantic. His toga or tunic or whatever
Romans wore in the house in those days,
is all crumpled up because he’s fidgetty
and can’t sit still. Claudia, lovely girl,
looks a lot cooler and neater, but you
could see her biting her lip somewhat.
She’s got something to say but she
doesn’t know how Papa’s going to take
it. She’s got a finger twisted into a curl
of her hair and it turns this way and
that way while she figures out the right
approach.
“Papa, can I go with Viola for the
week?”
“Eh? What’s that? I thought you
didn’t want to go!”
You should see Papa spin around and
glare. Now he’s going to pop a button,
if he had a button to pop. He comes
over to Claudia and catches her by the
arm as if to shake her (woman are so
contrary!) but Claudia is smart. She just
snuggles up to Papa, until he forgets
what he was going to yell.
“Aw Papa, I don’t mean the country.
I mean I want to go with Viola. She’s
got a place she says will guarantee not
even Marcus will find me, not even for
a teeny-weeny kiss. You know how she
worries over me after Mama died.”
“H’m-m' . . . you know Claudia, you
get to be like your mother more and
more. So you want to leave your old
father, eh .-. . fox* a week . . . tsk! tsk!
Where’d you say you were going, huh ?
“I didn’t say. Anyway, I don’t know
. . . but Viola says it’s the best place
ever, and I’d trust her more’n anyone
else. You know that, Papa ...”
“Viola . . . h’-m . . . Viola . . . yes-m
. . . Oh yes, Viola! That’s right. Fine
woman, that, even for a slave. Pity.”
Papa was thinking. Viola was a slave,
but you could depend on her with your
A STUDY
and Jane Miyashita.
life. She was that kind, and she was one
of these new Christians. It was getting
to be a topsy-turvy world when slaves
had more character than their free mas
ters. So many of these Christian type
slaves, nowadays, that no amount of
burning and killing in the arenas seemed
to decrease them. In fact Papa would
sweax' to it that some of his Roman
friends were getting to act like these
slaves. In fact, he sort of liked it him
self . . . but of course, he was a Roman
of Rome, and he wouldn’t be anything
else. Nossir. It was the proudest boast
in the world to be a Roman of Rome.
But then, the way some of the Romans
were acting were a disgrace to theix*
birth. They had no more character1 than
slaves. Nope, that’s not right. Viola’s
got character, and to spare. In fact, if
she wasn’t a slave she’d be a fine matron
type ... oh well.
“Now look here, Claudia, call Viola to
me. I’ll speak to hex* myself.”
“Fine, Papa.”
“Pronto, little one ...”
Papa smacked Claudia where she was
tender, and she laughed back at him as
she scooted off to fetch Viola. Claudia
felt gay and young and happy, because
she knew that Viola would talk her
fathex* into letting hex* go.
Viola came in to face hex' master. She
was a fine figure of a woman, as the
saying goes, and she had the additional
charm of being quite handsome in a
Greek way, being descended from Greek
slaves of an earlier era. She had the
habit, too, of looking a man straight in
the eye. That’s a good sign, don’t you
think? No shenanigans there. Anyway,
everytime Papa looks at hex* he gets the'
flutters, because he just can’t rant away
at hex* the way he does to Claudia and
to some of the other slaves, or even as
he did to his own valet. With Viola he
has to talk sense. So, he sort of grins at
hex’ shyly,,and starts off:
“Uh . . . Claudia was saying something
about you ... or rather about her going
with you somewhere fox' the week of the
Saturnalia. Mind telling me more about
this ? Aftex* all I’m her father and I

KASLO, B. C.

WaS techni’-aIL kno^ ^s a ghost town
that became a relocation centre for the Japa
nese Canadians But Kaslo was more than that
or the evacuees. For a short time it became
an anchor and a haven in a turbulent time.
The evacuees loved Kaslo. Perhaps it was the
spirit, of “our town”. Perhaps it was the
hakujm people of Kaslo. Anyway, it was so.
Pet Lis take you to the bluff beliind the

We shift our eyes to cros's the bridge and

siadows of the trees, the Kootnicraft building
can be glimpsed. There’s the Clinic and there’s
imy Park with its tennis courts, beaches,
and a baseball diamond. And there’s also the
church.
The church is a lovely white church and
on Sundays you could have heard the bells
calling- the people to worship. Inside its quiet
avails the hakujin and the pihonjin came to
gether in common worship to God.
There is a story told concerning one Japa

Japanese woman. She listened, moved by the
inspiring music of the hymns, and in their
av ords, which she shaped with difficulty, she
found lines for guidance and courage.
She joined the church at Easter and our

By the casual and almost flippant manner
the defence attorney resumed his seat, by the
way his lawyer' said: “The defence rests, your
honour,” Tak knew he had lost his case. But,
somehow, Tak sensed defeat, from the begin
ning. Before the jury left the courtroom he
had checked himself from crying out:
“Damn you all! I’m guilty. I admit it. You
wouldn’t understand anything more, so why
waste your time on all these confounded proceedings. Sentence me, I’m ready to pay!”
Tak didn’t say this, of course. It wasn’t in
his make-up. He was always quiet and ro
served. Come to think of it, his lawyer sure
made him out like a kid. A little boy just
weaned from his mother’s milk, that’s what
he was. A little boy who didn’t know the enor
mity of the crime' he had committed—although
you’ve got to admit it was a pretty clever
trick robbing the boss’ big fat wallet, pretty
clever for a kid, that is.
Everybody knew Tak was guilty. Once he
was arrested, Tak created no scenes. Violence
and Tak never teamed up. And yet, throughout
the proceeding, Tak’s face had glowed with a
strange optimism. Could he have thought jihat
the sentimental case his lawyer had dreamt
up would result in his acquittal ? What was
he thinking about?
The way the defence attorney presented the
case amused him. It was so ironical. Tak won
dered what the jury would do if the whole
story had been told. It he had the gift of thegab, he might have talked, and talking might
have relieved his mind. The bitterness that
perplexed his heart cut deeply. Yes, if he

out here after the war. They don't trust you
much when you’ve got slant eyes and black
hair . . . Sure, I robbed my boss, after he
called me a dirty, stinking Jap.
“ ‘Why don’t you smelly Japs go back to the
country you came from. Acting like a beggar
in this country will get you nowhere,’ was the
boss’ retort to my request for a little raise”.
I wonder what, the jury would do if they
knew the whole story. I wonder why I didn’
tell them. Tak thought.
Tak’s fingers fidgeted in the pocket of his
worn trousers. There lay the answer, a crumpled letter smeared with sweat and c
under the pressure of his hand. It was a letter
from his camp-day friend and class-mate, Aki.
The same Aki who had once told him:
on that shoulder of yours. Keep plugging' . . .
Perseverence, boy!”
Tak opened the letter and perused its con
tents again.
“Dear Tak,” it began, “I am sorry to hear of
your mistake, but I have full confidence that
you will pull through like a man. A little
mistake has been the turning' point in the lives
of many great men. Youynight be bitter to-day
but time will heal your.wound. I know that a
rash and thoughtless individual must have in
stigated your action. I know that you will not
retaliate, now, with a rash and thoughtless
action. You are a member of a minority race
in this country, but there are many others like
you. The past ’ war has been a war of oui’
liberation, Tak, liberation from doubt, suspic
ion, hatred and distrust. New vistas have be
come open to us. Economic opportunities de
nied to us in the past by deep-rooted prejud
ices are now available to any skilled individual.
I am sorry you were blind to the opportunity,
Tak, but you have the ability to make good in
this country. Remember the old poem we had
to memorize in High School.
T am the captain of my fate
I am the master of my soul.’
That was all, except for the “Pal forever,”
which closed all of Aki’s letters to him.
The jury sauntered back, but Tak didn’t care.
His thoughts were of the distant future.

THE FALL, THIS YEAR, has been
sunny and lingering. But now, quietly
out of the night, the first snowfall has
come drifting downward over rooftops
and bare trees. Suddenly, unexpectedly,
Christmas is just so many shopping days
away. A mighty impulse seizes you. Up!
Up! Off your backside, and into the fray!
Leap to the impulse! But the flesh is
frail. And besides, with close to forty
Christmases behind you, you’re all for
canny planning of the expedition before
you. A carefully-thought-out Christmas
list, within a budget figure—that’s the
first step. And these days you’ve learned
to do your best thinking from a prone
stance. All hail the stance!
*
*
These days, I’m sure, more than a few
Nisei share this position with me. The
fact is we’re rapidly knocking forty—
and finding it necessary, inevitable and
attractive to admit it with grace. We
look forward to another Christmas again,
of course. But we can’t help looking
back, too. At a series of Yuletides, in
many different parts of the country
now. When we were close to each one.
they seemed so much alike. Instead,
how far is the last from the first.
Each is a milestone in the steady ero
sion of youth with experience. Witn
forty just around the corner, and our
quick protest noticeably slowing, the
process moves on.
Someone has said that except in extreme cases memory is apt to count the
sunny hours. Perhaps the odd one of us
is an exception,—hearkening back to
early privation in struggling homes, the
clash of cultures dividing families, or the
pain of racial stigma culminating in
evacuation.
But most of us can and do look back to
count the sunny hours. First, it seems
to me, because in spite of all the real
handicaps, we were secure in our homes
and families. Whatever may be said of
our economic and sociological inheritance
—or, indeed of the lack of it,—I think
we owe a very great gift of personal,
psychological stability to our fathers and
mothers. And second, no doubt, because
; we were young enough to welcome ex
perience as something ‘ new and fresh,
something valuable for its own sake.
Not that it was necessarily a happy
experience. On the contrary, our child
hood and youth were often touched with
more than ordinary fear and pain, ■with
broken illusion and defeat. But as we re
call it, everything we did seemed so
much worthwhile doing with all the
energy and feeling we could command.
To play a game was to strain every
muscle and nerve. To secure knowledge
and learning was worth scrimping pen
nies and all the midnight oil in China.
To win “our cause” justified all the
•, the sweat, the tired, aching
win a "girl“—dance through the
mind
night and walk hoihe for miles.
Today, as we look back, so much of
the actual detail of youthful experience
recedes so quickly. So it’s not so much
the passing of the “lovely events” we
mourn. But what the memory does seem
to sift out more strongly than ever is
the recollection of how keenly we were
able to feel about the passing events,
the trivial events, of day-to-day.
There was a girl you admired from
Kas Soga
A small item in the sports pages of Montreal
newspapers this fall, mentioned that the St.
Jerome Lions had won the 1952 Championship
in the Laurentide League, carrying home with
them the Rose Trophy, presented for the fh»t
time this year to the winning team in the
Laurentide League.
It was a big day for the home town of St.
Jerome. The “Lions” had presented a formid
able front, taking the championship four game*
against 0 in the finals, after winning 4-2, 4-2
in the quarter-finals and the semi-finals itspectively.
To Kaz Suga,' the only Nisei on the team,
it meant more than winning the championship.
It meant that the boys on the team had faith
in Kaz’ ability. It meant that his fans held
him in high regard. To a baseball player per
haps that is the biggest thrill in his. whole
lifetime—to know that his team and his fan,''
are rooting for him.
To a veteran player like Kaz, who began a^
bat boy for the Asahi team in Vancouver, w .o
played his first major game at 15 at
on
Jones Park, today competing with younger,
fresher players when his sports colleagues o
Vancouver days a.re content to Stay at ome,
it was evidence that he’s still nov rea > uO
“hang up his gloves” as he will often say ^ en
asked, “Playing baseball this year, Kaz .
WEDNESDAY,
afar for weeks and months and months.
And then there was the opportunity. A
dance, a walk home on a June night, the
dark shadow of a friendly maple,:—a
first, gentle kiss. When you’re knocking
forty, you can’t mourn the passing of
such a kiss. But what you are afraid to
lose, what you hate to feel slipping away
forever, is the capacity for knowing how
achingly wonderful, how poignantly im
portant, such little tilings can be. And
all such little things.
You can’t go home again. There’s the
sadness to the thought of it. The sense
of regret that we Nisei oldsters cannot
deny. And the Yuletide season, of all
times, is the sharpest time for nostalgic
yearning. Is it any wonder we’re not
too sure of each new Christmas ? And
so quickly tempted to borrow some bot
tled cheerfulness ?
But if we’re knocking forty, some
other things are happening to us too.
The same Hand that seems to turn the
drafts on the fire a little lower each
year, seems also to endow the cooler
flame with surer light. For strange to
say, when we’ve accepted our youthful
past for what it is, bowed to its fleet
ingness, the light suggests a vastly
greater stage than any we had ever
known existed. Arid as we grope our way
upon it, its vastness expands with every
step. Indeed, whole new worlds are
opening up. Worlds of experience, worlds
of feeling and perception, worlds of
knowledge and understanding, and an
illimitable search for all of these.
Be of good cheer, friends, though the
poignancy of youth dissolves in joints
that slow and muscles that slack. Life
does begin at forty, if the mind and
heart are ready for it. And this passing
of youth is after all a preparation for
voyages of discovery no less entrancing
than those of the past.
I think it true that many of us must
now be launched upon these voyages.
The horizon is no longer bound to the
youthful Nisei world, to its exclusive
aspirations, its social whirl or its pas
sionate athletics. The horizon now
reaches out to the broad world itself, af-

ics and politics and sociology and their
impact, upon our own lives. So, too, the
larger perplexities of mankind around
reply to the threat
the globe,
of atomic desolation. These, we come to
realize, are all questions of today, im
portant to us and our families, and the
mind seeking answers can be as youth
ful as ever.
The horizons in space are invitations
to horizons in time. First, toward the
past, because there our knowledge is
surer and our understanding can be more
concrete. So we are delving' into history,
to find the factual recitation of how we
came to be—“the slow drift of mankind
towards civilization”—is adventure and
fascination in itself.
But what is civilization ? We look for*
answers behind the facade of technology
and scientific achievement. And the sig
nificance of art and beauty* is borne upon
us like new-found revelation. The beauty^
of sight, and sound, and literature—and
the unending enjoyment it affords. Our
response, intuitive and stumbling in the
past, can grow in meaning and sensiti
vity* as our experience accumulates and
perception deepens.
Does all this leave any opportunity7
for decay* of heart and mind ? Indeed
the horizon is lifted still higher, and we
are led to further* vistas—the vast realms
of truth and philosophy, awaiting explo
ration by7 anyone who cares to enter.
Here are the challenging, labyrinthine
ideas, whose ultimate purpose is per
spective and understanding. Some can
come to it, in simple faith, early or late,
as Christmas surely reminds us. Others
of us, knocking forty now, and turning
our backs upon “the fires of spring”,
have the chance to search. The beauty
of it, we discover, is that the experience
of the search is so much worthwhile
just in itself.
It’s not bad, in short, to be knocking
forty. I’m really beginning to enjoy it.
'Pride of the St. Jerome Lions’
Not that Kaz is through by a long shot. To
Kaz baseball is his sole life. Though his pals
of Vancouver days have long ago deserted the
diamond, Kaz has been playing ever since he
came out east. He has been playing consistent
ly good ball for one team or anothei' since
1945 and doing a kind of “friendly relations”
job through baseball for Niseis. In 1945 he
plowed with the championship team in the
Senior City League of Montreal; in the next
two years he played with the Provincial
League for St. Johns, Que., winning the champ
ionship for 1947; in 1948 he travelled 420 miles
every* weekend for the Mont Joli Team, and
since then has been with the “Lions”, pennant
winner for 1951 and-Rose Trophy winner
this year.
Each year Kaz goes on piling record upon
record to his own personal baseball history,
and as will always happen, Montrealers have
come to taking his success for granted. And
Kaz would have gone on in his friendly, goodnatured way, and Niseiville would never have
known how popular he is in the baseball w orld
had it not been for a freak accident.
Kaz almost missed finishing with the “Lions”
this year. During one of the season’s games,
he tried to steal a base and landed in the hos
pital. With twenty stitches to his torn knee,

a different look at "momism" and the complexes
that could result in immaturity and inadequacy.
Wednesday, December 24,
1952
i the memory of the love and self
sacrifice, there is a shadow which
threatens to become dark and dis
tinct, carrying a picture of bit
terness and hatred’ against the
mom who ground them under the
heels of her selfish life. Such a
person, if the hostility is not
turned inward, may burst forth
in active hostility against the
world in general. They make life
miserable for others. They are
the chronic complainers, the criticizers, the perceivers of flaws
and imperfections.
