Georgetown Hbr. Remains Open

Despite the rigorous weather and severe frosts of last week, George- town Harbour remains ice-free. A little thin ice extends from the shore over part of the inside har- bour but it is very thin and would not impede shipping in any way.

Over the years the harbour has had the reputation of being the Province ice-free port and this winter seems to be no exception.

The last ship cleared port sever- al weeks ago with a cargo of pulp” wood for France Nn ships loads-d' potatoes here this shipping season- end the frost-proof warehouse was used only to assemble about twenty- l five car loads of potatoes, which were shipped out by rail.

This superb harbour remains idle, despite all of its natural advan- tages. AC

The malls this year were heavy and the postal employees were kept very busy. People are being taught to address parcels and all mail properly. but in spite of all. there are a great many packages not properly addressed, resulting in a big auction sale annually.

Mr. John Campbell is employed at Souris Post Office as an extra in the Yultide rush.

Mr. Arthur Keene is one of the. many who are engaged in loading pulp and potato-boats in Sourls. Just now the ice in the harbour is giving some trouble and it is feared that soon ships may not be able to enter.

Mr. John MacPhce. Glcncorro- dale. has gone to Charlottetown. where he is receiving medical treat- merit.

Sympathy is being extended to Mr. Wallace Mclnnes and family. due to the death of Mrs. Wallace Mclnnes at her home at North Lake. on Dec. 21.
