MONDAY

Historic St. John's Presbyterian Church at Belfast was filled to capacity yesterda. when the final service marking the 160th anniver- sary of the Landing of the Selkirk settlers was celebrated.

Rev. James E. Heathwood, II. A..

the minister of St. John's, was in '

charge of the service, the special preacher being Rev. Donald A. Campbell, 8. A., a. native of Hea- therdale and Presbyterian minis- ter of the New London charge.

The service was a fitting climax in a whole week of celebration which saw many noted preachers and public speakers take part. The music was under the direction of the church choir with Mrs. M. W. MacDonald at the organ. Mrs. Jack MacRae of Cherry Valley was heard in that beautiful solo, Ten- nyson's "Crossing the Bar".

At the cluslon of the observ- snces the congregation, led by two pipers. wended their way to the ”Poiiy" monument where the "La- ment" was played and prayers of- fered by Rev. Mr. Heathwood. Benediction by Rev. Mr. Campbell brought this moving part of the service to a close.

Rev. Donald Campbell preached s powerfully delivered sermon based on the words of David in se- cond Samuel the 15th verse. iAnd David longed and said. O that one. would give me drink of the water of the well of Bethlehem which 13 beside the sate"-

TUESDAY

The 1953 Provincial lxhlbltlon with one of its greatest livestock shows and horse racing progrtma in its (i5-year-old history got under- way last night with Premier A. W. Matheson officially opening the proceedings in a brief but impress- ive ceremony on the lflnd NW4 immediately before the opening NICE.

With the livestock barns full of the Island's finest animals and the racing stablm filled with the Mar- ltlmes best trotiers and pacers of- ficials expressed the hope that the ram edition of the Provincial show Ivould. be the finest yet produced.

Premier Matheson extended his best wishes to the Exhibition V of- ficials before declaring the Week's program officially opened. He warned them that they could not remain stationery but that they must go forward and they must provide a variety of programs at prices which everyone could afford to pay. l-ils Honor Lieutenant Governor T. W. L. Prowse mole briefly and commended the officials for their splendid efforts before extending a welcome to all visitors to the Prov- ince.

His worship Mayor J. D. Stewart welcomed the visitors to the City of Charlottetown. Mr. 11. E. Bell. M. L.A. also spoke briefly.

I-ion. C. C. Baker. Minister of Agriculture reviewed the growth of the Provincial llxhilrition and the advancement of the agricultural in- dustry in the Province. He com- mended the Exhibition officials and wished them every success in their endeavours.

The Liberals elected three men in Prince Edward Island in yes- terday's general election and the Progressive Conservatives one.

A report on the potato situation in the United States, issued by the Department of Agriculture in Washington, D. C., yesterday indi- cated in production totiil of 362.835,- 000. Yield per acre (bushels) 254.9, acreage for harvest, 1,502,000. On the same date last year, l.lldic.1'.Pd production was 335,421,000; yield per acre (bushels) 236.5, for harvest 1,418,000.

A comparison of the two years shows an increase roughly 47 millions.

Commenting on this anouncemcni

a Charlottetown exporter would appear that if these stalls- tics are correct, there nl'e many potatoes and

the United States ordinarily can consume only 350 million bushrix The 1951 August report showed 315 million bushels and the 1952 Aug- ulslt report showed 335 million bush- e .

”I am very pleased to be on the Island and I am qulic sure I will like it". was the opinion offered by Inspector William I-larrieon Nevin who officially took ”L” Division of here yesterday,

Inspector Nevin, who succeeds Superintendent N. W. Churchill as officer in charge of the division, comes directly from Dauphin Sim- Dlvlsion wllch included the north- ern areas of Manitoba, as far as Fort Churchill.

P. but due to a long waiting list, it was a year after this be- fore he became enlisted in the Force. He had the distinction of being chosen to represent the police in the famous musical ride at Madison Square Gardens in 193-: and perhaps his greatest thrill came when in 1939 he was one of those selected to guard the King and Queen on their Royal Tour across Canada.

Inspector Nevin spent several years in the Western Arctic where he was stationed at Alrlavilr and Hershel Island. It was during his tour of duty in Aklavilr that he be- came married to A nurse who was on the staff of the hospital there.

Bessie Budlon;z's victory in the second dash of the event. was the upset win of the-night. The Dip's victory, nlihough a big surprise to the betting public, was no up- set for he vriine back to race It hard mile in the inst heat and win by half a length.

Wayne S. Grniian also figured in the surprise picture as he placed second in the second heat of the 2.20 Pace. '1'lle..qulnella on Bessie Budlong and Wayne S. Gratlan paid the staggering sum of 5571.40.

Maritime horsemen today will have several things to ponder over. Not the least of them will lie the fastest mile of the season trumped in the Mnriiimes by Pontiac when he fought off all opposition in tho second heat of tho Frets For All Pave to come under the wire ill 2.06 US.

that the Ciegg filly showed the blood lines by taking an early lead and holding it all the way to the wire as she flashed under to an- other new Maritime record as she scintiiiated to an unbelievable mark of 2.17 W5. She was four lengths ahead of the field when she finished.
