First Day Covers of this new issue will be handled only by the Post Office at Ottawa. and will be despatched on the date of issue, lst March, 1950. In view of the high value of the new issue stamp no cover service charge must be paid in order to have covers ser- viced by the Department.

A Modest Miss ls Girl Author 0f Prize Story

OTTAWA. Fob, 1 — (GP) -- An interview with Nora McFarlane is as refreshing h; a chat over the back fence with the kid next. door But. the kid next door probably hasn't won u $500 first prize in an international short story contest.

Slxteon-yeur-old Norah has done just that, and the honor hasn't turned a hair of her pretty bobbed head.

She's nothing If not modest, Her mother, Mrs, Leslie McFarlune sfiICl that ravhen ‘The Canadian Press telephoned Norah recently to tell her she had won the prize in the contest conducted by ‘the magazine. "Seventeen", the little gal didn't even say boo to the family. Mrs. McFarlane had to ask several timcs before Norah finally broke down announced casually whut the phone was all about.

Norah says the news didn't really "sink in" at. the time.

"I Just felt very calm-moi. n: ii‘ anything had happened," she grin- ned. "It really really hasn't sunk in yiet,"

What. worricg her most is the thought that. people will expect her to keep turning out top-notch stuff all the time.

"It. sets a standard and I feel as if I'll have to be on my tccs from now 0n," she raid seriously.

when it c0110! to writing, Norah has been "on her toes" ever since-- at the tender age of Sllh-SIIQ wrote a. verse cal ed "Birds".

Pioneer Days In P. E. I.

By F. H. MacArthur

Nowadays We give littleif any thought to the hardy pioneers whose back-breaking toil cleared away the age-old forests that stood where our fiue farm lands smile to-day.

In those days the pioneers chief concern was how to get a bit of cleared land ready for seeding in the least possible time. Some farm- ers cut down all tho trees on a given lot, piled them in mighty heap and burned Llrcm all 1.0- gethenngthcrs dug out [lie uilall trees a piled those beside the giants to dry out for the "day of burning"

June and July were the months usually set aside for firing the

'greab ruasses 0i brush and logs because then the leaves and branches were quite dry and

ready for the torch.

A good axeman could clear about one acre in eight or nine days. After the hoes were sawed into ten-foot lengths they were rolled together and piled 0n top of the brush. Whataivanton destruction of fuel that was‘. No conservation measures ucre in farce than. The folly of the axcnrnn is much in evidence in our day when our for- csts are all but depleted. A little thought of. future needs might have made such ‘a difference.

It was slow. bean; work for one pair of hands. and we are amazed how many farmers clcarccl every fool of their own land by this crude process. Even when the axe had dune its job, it still took weeks and weeks to burn the F6611 logs They had to be fired time and again before they finally were reduced to IISIIDS.

Once a patch of land was cleared the farmer ploughed among the stumps with a shOrt-huncl-‘xd plough. the share and coultcr being iockvd togttlicr. But. the‘ soil was so mellow that a mere scratching of the surface was sufficient to prepare the land for seeding. When sown. a light wooden-tooth ‘narrow was used to cover the seeds.

Of course potatoes were the first crop. The spuds were plant- ed in hills about, two feet apart The children of the family covered the sets and hoeci them (luring the summer When they were road)’ to be harvested the whole family joined in the task. Everybody earned hi5 board in pioneer days.

Yes. we owe a great debt of Emil- tude to our forefathers whose incessant toil made life easier for this generation.
