loiiiist season is still four months di'_'staIit,,that mecca for the sum- mer visitor, the Dalvay-Caven- dish area of the Prince Edward Island National Park, presents a scene of hustling activity with $8 men steadily employed at var- ious tasks.

Mr.~F. C. Browning, who has been Superintendent of the Is- I&nd‘s National Park since May, 1956. stated that the decision to °31_‘I‘Y out these necessary re- pairs to Dalvay House was taken last fall, and the men commenced Work early in‘December. CONSTRUCTION DIFFICULT

Next workers had to ensure the security of the entire structure before the next step of the job could be started. This was done by inserting within the annex a complete system of laminated supports, bolted as well as nail- ed together; the whole being anchored with a chain support to the Hotel proper.

Following this the top storey must be jacked into its true posi- tion. a distance of six inches, and the whole complicated mass of supports removed “piece- meal.” The entire job will not be

completed for several weeks yet,

Mr. Browning said. 3 CREWS IN WOODS

In the Dalvay area two crews have been assigned to the woods improvement project; a third crew is engaged in similar work in the Cavendish section of the Park.

Their chief task is to remove all the’ unnecessary growth, the Park Superintendent asserted, adding that “in a National Park clear cutting of wooded areas was not possible, therefore a policy of sel ctive cutting must be carried ou ."

This work is done under the direction of the forestry depart- ment Mr. Browning said, adding that it was necessary not only from a proper growth and con- servation standpoint. but also to remove possible fire hazards and ,aid in the Parks beautifi- cation program.

The 1956 sleet storm caused a

‘great-deal of destruction in the

Park forests, the Superintendent observed.

NURSERY AREA FIRST Reclamation -«work was com- menced several years ago, with the initial work being carried nursery plantation located to the east of Dalvay. Several stands of red and white pine seedlings had been set out here in the years the Park operated prior to World

lWar Two. The intention at that,

time was what. they would be transplanted to other areas of ‘the Park, but in the intervening six years of war the plantations were allowed to return to their iiiatural state. ‘ Cleared of all undergrowth and limbed to a distance of five feet from the ground, the rows of stately. young pine present an impressive, orderly appearance. Other areas in which this work has had been completed showed improvement even to the novice. The removal of the underbrush and lower limbs makes passage tliroiigh the spruce groves easy

‘ and inviting.

In areas where the trees are thick and spiiidly, complete re- clamation is not possible in one operation, Mr. Browning noted. Only one tree in four is removed he said. This allows for what toi-esters term "mutual support”. when the trees attain I greater

“In the mountains,” he said, “It takes two or three genera- tions to replace a tree; here, trees attain a good growth in several years."

The paved highway, and the completion of .Covehead bridge both have aided‘ immeasurably ..in the task of operating the 7-square mile Park that runs twenty five miles along the Gulf shore from Tracadie Bay on the east to New London Bay on the west, Mr. Browning stated, but gave the greatest credit to this year’s un- usually mild winter.

WHAT DOCTORS SAY ABOUT:

Q Wintertime Dry Nose

Q. Is it heat or humidity that causes wintertime dry nose?

A. It's low humidity (lack of moisture in- the air). To comfortable at 72°F., room air should have a relative humidity of about 40 per cent. This means that the air should be 40 P91‘ saturated with moisture. Even under these “ideal" condltlolls the nose has trouble keeping up. Every 24 hours we breathe about 500 cubic feet of air. In passing through the nose the air is warmed to almost 98.6°F. (body temperature) and abfillt one pint of water is added to raise the relative humidity 95 per cent. A pint of water is a lot for one nose to supply- Reduce the relative humidity of room air to 25 P91‘ 0931* 01' be‘ 10w, as is the case in many homes during the winter. apd the nose loses the battle with

much water; drainage stops and germs take over. Humidity- ing air in the house during winter months isn’t easy. A nose and throat specialist re- cently discussed the Problem before a medical meeting. He had tried all kinds of expen- ments and still didn’t know how to moisten a house.
