41. CANADIAN Poets If ye break faith with us who die We shall not sleep, though poppies grow In Flandersfields. Robert William Service, 18741958. Born in Preston, Lancashire. http://www.scuttlebuttsmallchow.com/listcana.html

CANADIAN POETS CANADIAN John McCRAE . Born Guelph, Ontario, 1872. Commanded an artillery battery during the Boer War. Served as Brigade Surgeon, First Brigade, Canadian Field Artillery from Fall 1914 to Summer 1915. Served in 2nd Battle of Ypres as surgeon and occasional gunner. In Summer 1915 became second in command of medical services at Number 3 Canadian General Hospital in France. Died 28 January 1918 of pneumonia and meningitis. Buried at Wimereux Cemetery in France. Wrote most famous poem of the war, "In Flanders Fields". In Flanders fields the poppies blow Between the crosses, row on row That mark our place; and in the sky The larks, still bravely singing, fly Scarce heard amid the guns below We are the Dead. Short days ago We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow, Loved and were loved, and now we lie In Flanders fields. Take up our quarrel with the foe: To you from failing hands we throw The torch; be yours to hold it high. If ye break faith with us who die We shall not sleep, though poppies grow In Flanders fields.

49. The Spoilers Haade, and Max Wagner (Deputies) William Gould (Marshal Robert W. Service (18741958)emigrated to Canada from After World War II Robert Service returned to http://www.filmsonthehill.com/F-42-Spoilers.html

Monday, December 10, 2001 at 7:00 p.m. The Spoilers (1942) preceded by a technicolor cartoon The Shooting of Dan McGoo (1945) The Spoilers (1942) The Spoilers was the fourth of five film versions made from Rex Beach’s classic 1905 saga of Alaska. The earlier film versions were 1914, 1923, 1930, and a fifth version was made in 1955. This version was tailored especially for Marlene Dietrich and was the first time in the story’s history that a female star was top-billed. After Marlene’s seven-film association with Josef von Sternberg ended in 1935, she made Desire , a big success, The Garden of Allah, Knight Without Armor , and Angel , none of which were successes. Now that von Sternberg’s handling of her could no longer be blamed, she bore the brunt of critics’ and theater managers’ anger. A trade paper published a notorious red-bordered advertisement labeling Marlene as box-office poison and Paramount paid her the contractual sum of $200,000 not to make a film she had been signed for. Marlene was so disappointed by the critics’ whining about Angel that she stayed away from the U.S. for almost 2 years, spending her time drifting around Europe. Just before war broke out, she received a film proposal that was to restore her fortunes dramatically. Joe Pasternak, who had met Marlene before she left for Hollywood in 1930 proposed that she do a Hollywood Western. The idea was shrewder than it first sounded. A Western saloon bar in the 1880s had much in common with a Berlin cabaret in the 1920s: a brash, bawdy milieu, an exuberantly bullying madam figure able to meet the other sex on its own terms, and a vigorous insistence on making one’s own rules and breaking conventional standards—all of which Marlene was perfectly familiar from her own early days as a Berlin soubrette.

The Cremation of Sam McGee by Robert William Service, 1874 - 1958 There are strange things done in the midnight sun By the men who moil for gold; The Arctic trails have their secret tales That would make your blood run cold; The Northern Lights have seen queer sights, But the queerest they ever did see Was that night on the marge of Lake Lebarge I cremated Sam McGee. Now Sam McGee was from Tennessee, where the cotton blooms and blows. Why he left his home in the South to roam 'round the Pole, God only knows. He was always cold, but the land of gold seemed to hold him like a spell; Though he'd often say in his homely way that 'he'd sooner live in hell.' On a Christmas Day we were mushing our way over the Dawson trail. Talk of your cold! through the parka's fold it stabbed like a driven nail. If our eyes we'd close, then the lashes froze till sometimes we couldn't see; It wasn't much fun, but the only one to whimper was Sam McGee. And that very night, as we lay packed tight in our robes beneath the snow
