Johnston's report: PRESIDENT'S REPORT

In reviewing the work of 104'! we have reason to be encouraged with the progress made on the whole.

There were 1m homes entered in the first year contest. Prince County having 64, Queens 10. Kings 50. In the second year contest there were 40. Prince County en- tered ll, Queens 12. Kings l7. ' making n total of 220 in both con- tests. The school and public halls contests were rather disappointing in tha numbers entered.

Prince (Iounty entered ll, Queens ll. Kings 7. in the school contest.

The public halls contest entries were as follows -— Prince 2. Queens 5, Kings I. a-total of 29 schools and 8 public halls.

The grand total of homes and public buildings for the Province was Mil. This incidentally was a higher number than Orltario ind in their competitions thle year. Not all of those who entered the contests ‘isherl what they set out to do, some entered in high hopes only to find that they were unable to procure the necessa y materials or were unable to get help in carrying out what they had intended to do. On the other hand. those who were able to se- cure materials and labor, accomp- lished a great deal of work and were a splendid example to mhars in their communities.

While this is not thi- time to make plane for thedflo contests. it would seem to me that if we arc going to get community interest so as to get more entries of school and. public halls. eur best plan would be to work, through tha Women! Institutes and other or- ganisatlons. W: are reasonably sure of their co-operatlon ln this re . . .

New Generator Inspected By Mayor And Party

At the invitation of Mr. V. A. Ainsworth, general manager of the Maritime Electric Company, His Worship Mayor B. Earle Mac- Donald and City Clerk James A. Fullerton made e. formal inapac- tion yesterday afternoon of the new 4,000 kilowatt generator at. the company's Charlottetown plant.

They were accompanied by m. Alnsworth and other officials o! the plant. Judge C. St. Clelr 'I't‘ainor, chairman of the Public Utilities Board; Mr. W.R. Bren- nan, engineer-member d the Board, and representatives of the press.

The installation o! the new gan- raior was completed about three weeks ago under the supervision of Mr. D. G. Lees whom the Com- pany induced to come from Sask- al-chelwan to supervise tha assemb- ling. The generator is working smoothly and efficiently, Mr. Ains- worth said, and is evoking high words of praise from tha engin- eers and others whose job it is to look after the new power unit. Built by C. A. Parsons Company Ltd, Ncwcastle-on-Tyne, England, the components of the generator required five railway oars to carry them to Charlottetown where they arrived last May.

M. F. Sohurman do Co. Ltd.. did the foundation work on which the generator was placed and techni- cal experts from the Montreal miglnecring Company. Ltd. furn- lshed the basic engineering de- signs.

New Equipment

The new generator!’ boiler i! oil-fired. and the fuel is stored in a tank which has s capacity of one million gallons. Other comp- licated work was involved in the preparation of the switching over of the electric load to the new generator. There was the task of erecting and. connecting a new master switchboard and high ten- sion switchboard which occupies one side of the entire building. New building additions were nec- cssary, together with many hun- dreds of feet of new high pressure piping. a number of pumping in- stallations and other incidentals. Mr. Ainsworth said ‘ another steam turbo-generator of 7.300 law. capacity will be in operation by the fall at 1949.
