Fire Extinguishers

Water is most generally used for la:-so fires. It is seldom avail- able in sufficient quantities at the crucial moment as a fire starts. ex- cept in sprinkler systems. Chemi- cal fire extinguishers are,designeo tor the various types of fires that may occur in industry. business or the home.

The sum-acid extinguishers are optrrsted by overturning them and directing the stream from the bi- carbonate of soda and sulphuric acid at the base oi the flame. Those are efficient for or-dianary HMS. but should be kept where they will not freeze. When greases and flammable liquiih tch fire. the foam type of fire xtinguisher should be used. This combines bi- carbonate of soda and an slush- inum sulphate solution, and when U-led. the foam smothers the fire. There are other types to meet Special needs.

The intelligent use of fire has made Possible our standard of liv- ing. United effort by everyone is needed to oombet the annual loss M1004 by the careless or ignor- hht use of fire. which last year W94 13.000 people and destroyed a billion dollars' worth of pro- -rveriy in Canada andvthe United

states.

elected Friday an associate mem- ber of the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade.

Japan's application for full mem- bership was rejected. mainly be- cause of opposition from Common- wealth countriesiwho fear a pos- sible revival of .1apan's- pre-war dumping practices.

nova sootia Bishop confers llites

-Twenty-five candidates re- ceived the holy ritu of Confirma- tion at the bands of the More Rev. E. H. Waterin.an,i B.A.. D.D., Bis- hop of Nova. Sootis. at St. Marks Church.

Erie Ingraham. M.A., rector of New London Pariah

Addreuing the candidates. the Bishop spoke of the importance of the occasion. both to them and to their rector who was ordained to the priesthood earlier this year and was presenting his first class of candidates for confirma- tion. He recalled his own happiness in presenting his first class as a youthful deacon, so years ago. He charged the choir and congrega- tion to pray for the candidates. thus having a part in the confirma- tion. which he said must be thought of as being administered by Jesus Christ. through the "very unworthy" offices of the Bishop. His Joy in going about among his people on this Fall visitation was expressed by His Lordship, and his pleasure in his association with Archdeacon Harrison, as he visits the various parishes in this vic- inlty.

The Bishop and the Archdeacon were warmly welcomed by the rec- tor on behalf of the people of New London Parish. ' -

lstrangc But True

By I. u. MacArthur

It is interesting to note the part. stones have played in human life down through "the ages. Our fors- fathers always put stones in their wheat bins to absorb moisture and keep the wheat grains from be- coming mildewed or rusty. This practice was common in the neigh- borhood where this scribe was brougbtup: and I weu remember helping my grandad place the dried stones in ithe wheat .bin after threshing ind been completed.

The Indians of Peru used cer- tain stones for the increase of their maize, others for the increase of potatoes and other root crops.

In some parts of Melanesia the time

natives used what they called "sac- red stories" which were supposed to be endowed with miraculous powers which wrresponded in their nature to the shape of the stone.

The ancients set great store on the magical qualities of precious stones; such stones being used as amulets long before they were worn as mere ornaments. The Greeks gave the name of tree-agate to a stone with tree-like markings. They believed that if a couple of these gems were tied to the horns of working oxen, the crop was sun to be plentiful. Then there was the milk-stone which they fan- cied produced a good flow of milk in nursing mother! if they drank it. dissolved in honeymeiil Milkstones are used for the same purpose by Crete and Melosc wo- men of the present day, Then too, the Greeks had stones to cure snake-bites and stones for our- ing drunkenness.

You would not find many sea- men who don't believe it bad luck to harm an albatross. But John Slipp. research assistant at the University of Washington, said the legend was pure onsense. so last summer while aboard the US. Fish and Wildlife Service vessel John N. Cobb. he asked permission form the captain to shoot an al- batross which wns seen flying near the shin. The Contain reltrctmtly granted Blipp's request and forth- with the bird was shot. Accord- ing to the A. P.. this is what hap- pened afterward:

The net caught on the bottom of the sea nnd was torn to shreds.

The net cables fouled up three times. -

The shaft of the main winch part:-d. (It took the crew Si-5 hours to reel in the cable).

Ted Maellendorr, a 'scientlfic aid aboard the vessel fell through a hatch and broke a rib. Although the sea was calm Slinp became vi- olently seasick for the first time in his life.

The ship had to return back to Seattle because of these disast-

-A group of nine men last eve- ning, after. hearing the purposes for which a.oredlt union exists in a community, formed a tem- porary committee to make applica- tion for a credit union in Bum- inerside to be known as the Com- munity Credit Union.

The nine charter members were Messrs Norman llicdonald, Russell Hunter, Jud MaoNevin, John E. MacDonald, Elwood Campbell. Lay- ton Profitt, Harold Mao!..en.nan. Roy Lidstone, and George Wotton.

These members will do whatever work is necessary in the mean- , and on Monday. November I. the official organisation meet- ing will be held.

At present there are two ore- dit unions operating in Summer- side, the st. Paul's and the Trin- ity Unions. It was felt by many, however. that there exists a need for separate community group to which persons may Join who do not belong to either of these ohumhes. ,

The meeting was addressed by Mr. Don Smith, Hamilton, On- tario. field representative of the National Auociation of Credit Un- ions. who outlined the purposes of a credit union, the method of op- eratlon and how to organize a cre- dit union,

He pointed out that a union is generally made up of a church group, a club, a business organiza- tion, or any group of people who

know each other and who are unit- ed by a common band.

In this case the proposal to organize one on s. basis.

A credit union. he said, "i.s a medium which assist: people to save; provides a loan service and an opportunity for such a group to conduct their affairs in a thor- oughly democratic way."

The meeting was attended by re- presentatives of the other two ac- tive credit unions in Su.m.m.e.rside who offered to do all possible to assist in the formation of the com- munity dredifunion.

Cyrus Poirier of the St. Paul's Credit Union outlined the progress made by his group since it was re-organized eight years ago and pointed out the many advantages a union offfers to its members.

Mr. Keir Duggen of Trinity Credit Union spoke along the same lines and-both offered their ser- vices in assisting the new union in its early stages.

It was agreed that membership in the new credit union will be open to anyone in summerside and the area covered by the rural mail routes extending out from Summerslde.

A nominating oommlttee com- posed of Russell Hunter, Norman Macdonald, Keir Duggan. Rod MacNevin and George Wotwn. was appointed to bring in recom- mendations for directors at the organization meeting. - S

some time ago only four pigeons out of mo returned to their lofts. Indiana reports the disappearance of 100 birds after they started their flight. Before radar and T.V. came into, general use pigeonhancl- lers often finished an entire se:i- son without losing a single bird.

A resident of Montreal demol- ished his garage because he did- nit have a car to put in it. Two months later he won a car in a raffle!

A superstition among the Bret- on peasants, is that if a farmer sows his clover when the tide is rising it will be a bumper crop. but if the seeds are sown at low tide or when it is ebbing, it will be a poor crop. and that the an- imals-that feed on it wil1 not thrive sound: silly. dec:n't it” Yet I know A farmer's wife who vows that she can't make good buttcr unless the tide is flowinq. 1' know of .-notlier familv who be- lieve that eels eaten at the ebb ni' the tide will squirm in their stom- aohs. The belief that most deaths occur at ebb tide is held by manv persons living along the sea- coasts.

The New England interests de- clined to co-operate; Some export- ting countries suggested the assess- lment bevcut to one-eighth cent a pound. Canada agreed but again there was no co-operation from the American operators.

"Three definite attempts have been made to organize a fillet promotion program during the ,last two years," said the council. "In each instance the attempt failed due to the lack of sufficient support from the New England industry." I.
