Swimming Tests At Ebhsflcet

Fish knives ceased for many minutes to slit and clean cod. ‘an; and mackerel, and the deft hands of lobster packers in the “fatbory" left their toil momentarily on an": afternoon of Friday, August limb. as the rugged fisher folk and in- dustrioua lady fish-packers of Miminegash Run crowded w tnc edge of the wharf to watch with deep interest the Red Cross Swimming Tests being held Lllfifc. The tests climaxed e. most eri~ thusiastic and co-operaiive swun- ming course of three weeks, ani. practice period of two weeks. Apart altogether from the exccl- lcnce of results achieved-ICC per cent passes of Lhc l6 who tried their junior tcstFthe event liao its peculiar significance. For Miminegash Run. e typical fish- ing village, and Ebbsfleet. it..." neighboring seaside agricultural district, were demonstrating tna: they had become actively ivazei- safety conscious. And. thougn the fisherfolk. gaining their very live lihood from the sea. have been i.n the past. providentially preserved from many water accidents, they are now co-operating actively Wltll Red Crossks efforts to cut dowii their alarmingly high percentage of non-swimmers.

Parents and children alike de~ serve high commendation for their splendid co-operation in this Md Cross effort. it. is to be hoped that the work so well begun by L112 children this summer will be con- tinued just as enthusiastically in the years to come. Here, above all, not just the benefit of s vc:y healthful and clean sport for an will result from the continuation of this work. but almost certainly the saving of many lives.

The instructor. James Kelly, wishes to repeat publicly a sincere word of thanks to the people of Mimiriegash Run and Ebbsficei. for the co-operation given liirii. and the kindness shown him dur-

ing the course. All of the Shh)’ children enrolled deserve cori- gratulations on real progress made, but special commendation

CROP CONDITIONS

(Continued From Page 1)

ls not as heavy as it was last yell? but it compares "favorably" vlritli an average year.

Weather throughout B ritish Columbia has been unsettled with the result that hazvesting of botn hay and grain has been delayed Digging of Vancouver Island's potato crop has been started.

Favorable weather has further enhanced crop prospects in the Prairie Provinces. This is pazticul- arly true for late-sown crops. which are filling well.

Wet waether in Manitoba. where

much of the grain is ready w harvest. has delayed operations somewhat in many parts of that province.

in Saskatchewan harvesting is under way in all districts and fair progress is being made.

Crops in Alberto. though late. are maturing satisfactorily with weather conditions favorable for filling and ripening.

In the Mzirltimes, some early- seeded grains have been cut but much of the crop is green and will likely be cut for hay, The mat!‘- potato crop in New Brunswick ls promising, although scme slight damage is evident.

Note Rejected

Tho Moscow broadcast said the Soviet. Government has rejected as "unfounded and contrary to fact" the American note concern- lng the teachers.

Quoting is Tess dispatch. (he broadcast. said the Soviet nnbiissv in Washington told the state De- partment:

"By-passing the facts cited In the statements of th Soviet. soy- ernment and its rpresentativcs. the State Department's note not only does not contribute to clar- ification of obscure points in the case of the kidnapping of Kas- enkiria, Samarln, his wife and three young children, but merely hinders clarification of this affair and the part taken in lt by cer- tain persons and bodies.
