     mentioned in the Guinness Book of Records. 
     
    

    
     On many of my trips to Ottawa, Dr. Jones 
     
     used to take me to the Rotary Club. When he came to 
     
     Charlottetown, we used to have him in our home. 
     
    

    
     One time Rev. Donald Nicholson was also visiting. 
     
     Dr. Jones used to ask about him as he said he was one of 
     
     the greatest story tellers he ever met. After Arnold died, 
     
     the 21C became Department head. Although he always 
     
     treated me fairly and often gave me good advice, I never 
     
     felt as relaxed on visiting the office. 
     
    

    
     I remember some good advice he gave one evening 
     
     when all the S.T.M.O.’s from the different provinces were 
     
     gathered as a social group. He said, “Now if Stewart wants 
     
     to call me an SOB, he had better do it by telephone and not 
     
     by letter. If he does it by letter, then if I ever see the letter 
     
     again, I get mad all over.” 
     
    

    
     Dr. Brown was the chief of the Pension Board. It 
     
     would be difficult for me to find a better friend. We had 
     
     many long talks. He knew that I used to like going to the 
     
     House of Commons to listen to them argue. His brother 
     
     was a Liberal Member of Parliament, and he was always 
     
     asking me ifI wanted a letter from him to his brother, so 
     
     that I would get a better seat. One night, he invited me up 
     
     to see the Hon. Angus MacLean, whom I had known in 
     
     earlier years. We had a pleasant time discussing politics, 
     
     etc. As we were going into the Parliament, Dr. Brown said 
     
     to me, ”I hope we do not meet my brother when we are on 
     
     the way to see a Conservative minister.” 
     
    

    
     He often picked up the phone to have a little chat. 
     
     He was treated for a heart attack, but about six months 
     
     later he called me and said, ”My heart was cured when 
     
     they took out my gall bladder.” 
     
    

    
     On one occasion, I tried to get a pension for one of 
     
     my staff, and I reviewed the literature, which paid off in
