B/ RUDYARD KIPLING
Condentation fa J err a B Cor.no'fp
Rudyard Kipling wa« born Dec. 30, 1865, in Bombay, where h s I
father, John Lockwood Kipling. arti«t and author, was professor tie
ormsn ocnooi 01 t\n. uc cuuu-.^v, ...
Services College, Westward Ho, North Devon, scene
of the lurid Stalky novel.
At 17 he was in India once mere, a jovirti list. !
Before he was 24, he had completed "Plain Tales
from the Hills" and six more of h>s best stories, which |
established his fame throughout the world. !n the |
tales of native life and adventure "beyond the pale." ;
India was revealed anew wiih a brilliance, color and !
passion unsurpassed; Mulvan^y and his p^lr. the e.xu- !
berant "Soldiers Three," captivated men from sea |
to sea.
Within the next 10 years, Kipling traveled round I
the world, married, lived in America, £nr»laid and
South Africa, and finally became so imbueJ with im- |
perialism as almost to destroy his art.
His "Barrack Room Ballads" and "Seven Seas" !
revealed him as an inspiring who "splashed at '
a ten-league canvas with brushes of camel's hair."
Of his three novels, "The Light That Failed" is ,
a tale of Suez; "Captains Courageous," of Gloucester
fishermen, s.nd "Kim," breathes again the subtle and
mysterious r'ascination of India.
With the "Jungle Book*" Kipling enthralled a !
new audience. These, and the incomparable "Just So
Stories, written to hit son who was Kiuca in me war, ensnrinea nun in
the hearts of' children the world over.
Ilarvey Clicvae's father was Im
mersed In amassing more money; his
mother was busy with her nerves;
and so we have Harvey, at fifteen
years, the Insufferable type that most
grown males want to heave a brick
at on sight
He was a passenger on this ocean
liner, and she was crossing the Grand
Banks In a fog. He came Into the
smoking room, saying: "You can
bear th# fish boats squawking all
around us. Wouldn't It be great If
we ran one down 1"
He asked for a cigarette. Some
body with a diabolical sense of humor
passed him a thick, oily cigar. Har
vey lit It up and went on deck. He
began to feel queer, but he had
bragged of never being seasick; so now
be went aft to the turtle deck, and
he- was still there, wrestling with the
cigar and not caring much what hap
pened, when a long gray sea swung
out of the fog and took him overboard.
Harvey was next aware of being
on a pile of fish with a broad-backed
man In a blue jersey, who said: "You
In dory with me. Manuel my name."
. Later be was hoisted aboard of a
schooner and lowered into her heaving
fo'c's'le where men In oilskins gave
him a hot drink and put him to sleep
In a bunk. When he awoke, n boy
whose name was Dan asked him smil
ingly If he was feeling better. The
schooner was the "We're Here" of
Gloucester, and the boy's father, DIsko
Troop, wns her skipper.
Hairey went up on deck to see
DIsko; and demanded that he be tak
en back to New York, where, as he
told DIsko condescendingly, his father
would pay them very well for their
troubte; he added many other Items
to what his father could and would
do. Disko, as It happened, was an
old-fashioned type of bank fisherman,
wise In the ways oftfsh but knowing
little of the great world. He decided
that this boy with his talk of his
father's Immense wealth must be
crazy; with an Idea of restoring the
poor boy to sanity, he offered him the
berth of second boy on the "We're
Here" at HO,50 per month. * • -
nar-ey nail a lit of suilenness, but
his suilenness worried nobody; lie
went to work. The dories were re
turning to the vessel with their catches
of fish; so for the first work of his
life Harvey was set to helping Han
hoist in the dories, to swabbing the
curry from their irisides mid then to
nesting them on the deck. By the
time he had finished doing that and
eating his supper it was nighttime,
and Manuel, 1'enn, Long Jack, Old
Salters, Tom Piatt—all hands were
standing by to dress fish.
Manuel and Penn stood deep among
the tlsh, nourishing sharp knives.
'<111!" shouted Manuel, with one lin
ger under the gill of a cod. the other
In an eye. The blade glimmered,
there was a sound of tearing, tiie fish- |
slit from throat to tall—dropped at
Long Jack's feet. "Hi!" cricd Long
Jack and, with a scoop of a inittened
hand, dropped the cod's liver luto a
basket; another wrench and scoop
sent head and offal flying. The gut
ted fish slid across to Old Salters,
who snorted fiercely, ripped out the
backbone and splashed the headless,
gutless fish into n tub of water.
Harvey pitched the washed fish
down into the hold, from whence came
■ trampling* and rumblings as Tom
Piatt and Plsko moved among the salt
bins. The rasping sound of rough s:i!t
rubbed on rough flesh from below
made a steady undertone to the click
nick of the knives In the pens, the
wrench and schloop of torn heads,
tliq flap of ripped-open fl-li failing in
to the tub on deck.
At the end of an hour Harvey want
ed terribly to rest, but also for the
first time In his life ho was one of a
working gnng of men; and so, begin
ning ,to take pride in the thought, he
held on grimly. Not till the last fish
was towed below did a man rest But
when that moment came! Dlsko and
Old Salters rolled toward their cabin
bunks. Manuel and Long .Tack went
forward. Tom Piatt waited only long
enough to slide home the hatch.
All hands were below and asleep,
except the two boys; they had to
stand watch; so by and by the moon
looked down -on one slim b«l' in kulak
I eroocKers. wniOn was tlarvey, srag
i gering around the cluttered deck;
while behind him. waving n knotted
rope, walked another hoy, which was
Dan, yawning rtnd nodding between
taps he dealt the first boy to keep him
awake.
The "We're Mere" was on n salt
fishing trip which meant four months
away froro home; so there was time
for Harvey to learn many strange new I
things if he cared* to. After a lime, I
as the priili- in honest work well done
began to grip hint, he cared, lie lwn
ed lo llsh from a dory; to uiak" his I
way in safety around a heaving ves- i
sei's deck; to know what each rope
and sail aboard, a vessel was for. j
I)isl;o allowed hiin, when the wind 1
was light, to steer Jhe vessel fr.ua I
one berth lo another, and wonderful j
was Ilarvey's sense of poller when lie j
first felt the vessel answer to his touch I
of the wheel. Almost did lie come to |
understand, as a fisherman under- j
stands, the never-absent dangers <<f :
tiio banks, the eternal f"gs, the tidi*s, |
the gales, the wicked seas; anil learn- I
ed, too, fishermen's opinion of the o:;i
cers of the great steamers who. after ]
cutting a vessel down, ral e high !
bauds to- heaven and swear with |
unanimity that the careless fisherman !
had never—absolutely never—shown j
so much as a single light.
He saw one day a foul, dracgled, un
kempt vessel heaving up past the
"We're Here." for all the world like |
n blowsy, frousy. bad old woman
sneering at a decent girl, saw tier sail
off and into a hatch of watery sun
shine ami—go under, taking all hands
with her! He saw. while his hair
stood on end, a whiteness moving In
the whiteness of the fog with a breath
like the breath of a grave; and then
lie heard a rearing, plunging aid
spoofing; that was.his first Icel erg.
lie saw file surf break over Virgin
Kocks: and the lisli strike in so thick
on a shoal that scores of dories stood I
riding gunnel to gunnel while their I
crews battled for the catch. He aw I
a gale break so -ml leti and flerc .lint j
everywhere r.n Isin were un it in I
dories cutting riding lines and racing
for their vessels, but some never mak
ing their vessels.
So lie passed four busy, wonderful
months, crowing in bod;.', uiind anil
j-ohI with every hour thai passed;
and then came the great day when
they left the banks for home. Toll,
hardsliip and danger were now most
ly behind liielu; I hero was left littie
lo do but stand watch and study the
folding and packing away of ti.e morn
ing mists, the hurry of winds across
the open spaces, the glare and blare
of the high sun: to barken lo the
grinding oT Hie booms against the
masts, the creaking of the sheeis
against the bills, the sail tilling to iht
roaring winds.
•\ow auout tno liaio mo -we're
Here," a hundred quintals of lisn in
lier hold, was la.vIn* her course for
Gloucester, Harvey's father was lie
ginning to wonder in Ills mahogany
olliees In I.os Anirelo^ if it wasn't a
better game to drop the ceaseless
struggle.for more power and wealtli.
What was the use of it all-r-with no
son to hand jt to? He was still won
dering when one day an excited sec
retary brought him a telegram.
It was from Harvey, safe in Glou
cester. Mr. Cheyne laid his face down
on Ills desk, breathed heavily for
awhile; and then, heaving orders
right and left, started that run of j
which railroad men talked for many
a day. Threp days and a half it was |
from"coast to coast, with railroad spe
cialists along the way dividing huse
bonuses; for it was the great IJarvey
Cheyne who was racing East lo see
his rescued hoy, and the hoy's mother
was with him.
Not without fear did he meet that
boy. He had a memory of a pasty
faced, had-mannered lad. What he
met was a bey with toughened figure
and a keen, clear eye.
Railroads, lumber, mines—such
things did i ot interest young Harvey.
What his heart -yearned for was to
some day manage bis father's newly
purchased sailing ships on the Pacific
Coast. The ships lie got when he was
ripe for tliein; and for Dan. -son of
Disko Troo;i—seeing Ilint he could not
offer money—lie got a berth, ns mare
of one of them, with the promise that
some day he would go master of the
best he could build.
"Great ships these of my father's?
Oh, yes," says Harvey. "P.ut back In
Gloucester are the able little vessels.
Thev'We're Here," she's one: I owe
a heap to her—to her and her crew."
