TRADE BUARIIB

RAEPBRTS

The followlnl IOPOrts in addition to these published yesterday, were submittai at Thursday's annual meeting of the Sunlmersidc Board of Trade:

Mills Committee

The Mail Committee's report for 1934, like that of the previous year, does not indicate any marked ac- complishments, but your Committee has endeavored to carry out the duties assigned to it.

One of the projects, on which the whole Board, as well as this Com- mittee, has been working for years, became an accomplished fact, when, on August 13th, 1934, the Summer- side Municipal Airport was offici- ally opened. In the words of the Mayor, that day was “a. Rod Letter Day in the history 9f our town. The

‘ oi the Surnmerside Airport

marks an epoch in our civic history: It is an event of far-reaching sign- ificance." With an officially recognized Air- port we are reasonably sure to have the airmail. We feel that the ser- vice glven is very satlsiacto y and greatly appreciated by the business people and citizens in general.

During the year we had able correspondence and several in- terviews with the Superintendent of Postal Services regarding better mall service to Charlottetown but-were not able to make more satisfactory arrangements. What we wanted was additional mail service by the afternoon train, but the postal authorities, after careful considera- tion, decided that the small volume of mail available for this trsln would not warrant the extra ex- pense and, therefore, our request and recommendation was left in

Committee. W. E. MacDonald.

Report O1 Railway Committees

Your Committee devoted erable time during the past year in an attempt to carry out the wishes of the Board.

Last spring We arranged with the Canadian National Railways and had two special week-and shopping excursions from all pOints in the

in

the special bargains offered by the stores, resulted in a lfl-YBO numb" taking advantage of the excursion. Another excursion was put on in a similar manner in December. This was intended for early Christmas shoppers, end was also well patron-

iaed.

The freight train west bound dur- ing the summer moi“--. which usu- ally left Summerside on Tuesday, ‘Thursday and Saturday, was chans- ed to Monday. Wednesday and Fri- day and a number of favorable com- ments were received by the Com- mittee.

The express train from west, which during the summer months arrived at ‘Lib A. M. was changed on November 12th to 10.80 A. M. It required considerable persuasion bY this Committee on the Management of the Railway before they Wuuld promise to make the change. A visit from Judge Fullerton, S. J. Hungerford. W. l-l. Appleton. and W. MacKinnon and others was highly entertaining, but not very satisfactory. Certain matters were dealt with but the meeting itself ended in a disagreement, although we are pleased to report that some time afterwards the matter under disc ion, namely the time-table, was satisfactorily arranged.

Mr. Rand Mstheson, Maritime freight traffic expert, has promised to visit town the first time he comes to this province. This will be an opportunity for all to discuss matters pertaining to freight trans- portstion.

As Chairman. I take this 0191101‘- tunity of thanking all the other members of the COmmittee for their helpful suggestion at all times. Respectfully submitted. Railway Committee. L. l. Allen, Chairman.

Holmwcod call here late in the fall for St. John's, Nild., taking several cars of oats besides other freight. This once popular and profitable trade ction can now be easily a stablished as this Company have a boat passing this Port fortnightly from Montreal to St. John's, Nfid., which would call here provided suf- ficient freight offers.

In conclusion, I am pleased to an- nounce that improvements to our 5hlDDlllg pier, as recommended by this board last year, besides addi- tional facilities for handling traffic, have been fully mplemented. The whole pier has been taken over by the Department of Public Works, and it is worthy of note, that through the sympathetic attitude oi the officials oi the Charlottetown office, supported by Mr. Arnett, that those improvements have been ei- fected. I therefore move that a vote oi thanks be tendered these gentle- men for the efficient service render- ed to the port of Summerside.

Miss llisch spoke in German, testifying through Professor George M. Priest of Princeton University, who was sworn as an interpreter. When Edward J. Reilly, chief of the defence staff, took her for cross-examirtation. he addrmed herinGel-lrlamaskingherii she understood English and she an- swered in Gennan that she could not. Miss Finch tcetiflemshe met her brother at the Leipzig railroad station and that he brought bag vrlth him, another coming by exprem. The dark-haired German frauledn said she helped her brother unpack the baggage be- cause he was “weak” and that his luggage consisted of "two suits of clothes, a blue and gray suit, six shirts, a wollen shawl, two pairs oi shoes, a pair oi or suppers, s. few cravats already made ll-p." She saw everything that was in the bags, she swore. Illiech stayed at her home until he went to the hospital in March, i984. where he died after two days. He had, she said, about 1500 marks, or about $500, in travelling cheques when he arrived. The state marched its rebuttal witnassee to the stand in an atmos- phere charged with tcnseness.

OITAWA, Feb. B-Brialulu- General Alex Ross 0d’ Yorkton, Soak, Dominion President of the Canadian legion, today told a ser- vice club here “Canada on the whole has done a fairly good Job of caring for her exsoldiers."

He said he would like to dis- courage the idea that Canada is seriously at fault in treatment of war veterans and added that at the recent biennial conference in Aus- tralia of the British Empire Ser- vlicelceguehlefoundnootlherpart of the Empire had done more for its soldiers than Canada.

AGRICULTURAL (mountings 1)

Mr. W. R. Shaw who also ad- dressed the studen‘ commented on their satisfactory work and complimented them on their pro- gressiveneas. He suggested also lines of work which they might follow profitably on their own farms.

Tile following ls the address de- livered by Hon. Thomas MsoNutt yesterday:

YOuut men. YOu are now near- 1118 the end oi your term in this series of short courses in agricul- ture. You will soon be returning to your homes to put into actual practice the instruction you havg received during the past four weeks. 1t is pleasing to note as you finish your course that your gtudieg have been satisfactory and, I feel sure, profitable.

I am glad to tell you that in conversation with the gentlemen who acted as your mstr-ugwrg 1 huvc lea-med that you have taken your studiu seriously and thought- fully and that you have shown commendable progress in connee. tlon with the different lines oi ag- riculture.

.'I'he aim of these short courses is not to make farmers oi you but rather to teach you how to become successful farmers and stockmen, The study of farming, like that of any other , fessi , is endless, and after you have farmed for so or 90 years you will find that there is something to learn, some better WHY Oi’ doing things. You do not have to wait until you are 80 or 90 years oi age to find this out. You will be finding it out all along the fOO-il. wt! this is your hope, and the more you see it and the more you practice it the better it will be fon yourselves and your country.

You have no doubt heard it said, vepwisuy during the last few years, that the professions nre °Y°Wd9¢ It is not so- The profes- sions are crowded only at the bot- tom oi the ladder. Up towards the top of the ladder there is always room and there always will be room for the man who wants to go t0 the top. If he wants to stay at the lower rungs of the ladder he will find himself in a. crowd, he will iind himself elbowed and Jostled, and he will find also that success is not for the man who is content to gmpe his way through

The purpose of these short OOums is to rive you an ides of

‘how to find the best systems, how

The" i8 lust one thing that you will need to keep constantly in mind. That is that there is no fOYll road to success-that road means hard, intelligent work.

NOW. YOuu8 gentlemen, it re- mllil! 1'01‘ me Only to say that we shall expect you to become leaders 111 Your respective communities and that you will set s. worthy ex- smvlo for your neighbours to fol- low. puttius into practice the in- struction you have received during this short course.

I wish you every success ill your undertakings and as you advance

highest standard of manhoni so "iii YOuP ill-rents may have every resaon to be proud of you; so that Your community may have every reason to be proud of you, and the province st large may feel proud oi you too. 'I‘hat is my wish to you s.

Any time you are in Charlotte- town we would be pleased to have you call at the Department and have a chat with you.

A vote of thanks, moved by Mr. Keith Bryentou and seconded by practically every member of the class, was tendered Hon. Thomas MacNutt for making the course possible.

NEW FLAX

(Continued from _Pa_g_e_l)

Pure and unblemished flax in ten hours after the straw has been

healthy that spinning becomes easy 111d rfl-Did. The strands are so pure that they do not require cleaning and so strong that they can be used at once for spinning. The linen can be bleached in a few hours instead of nearly a_ week. It can be dyed in a fraction oi the time taken at present. But, perhaps more striking even than this is the fact that the linen yarn can be used on cotton looms. woven as easily as cotton and even mixed with it so as ‘to Produce a new fabric with the mer- its of both linen and cotton. This fabric is exceedingly soft to the touch and ‘drapes’ better than any other fabric hitherto produced."

OI‘ GREAT BVEOBTANCI! T0 ‘ID CANADA

The process would lsy the founda- tion of the industrialization of Can- adian agriculture, it is claimed. Hitherto the Dominion! flax has been mostly used in a form suitable for upholsterlng. As a result of Mr. Smith's lese “m, Canadian flax has been tested in Manchester and proved to give better results than any other flax. Moreover, the Can- adian fanner can store his flax in the open and market it as it suits him best. Furthermore, flax treated as Mr. Smith proposes. can be spun and woven under any climatic con- ditions.

There also is the further econ- omic advantage claimed that as the whole of tho fibre of the flax plant may be reduced to a stabilized fibre equivalent in length to cotton fibre, and also that the treated flax will mix and blend with the cotton. the product can be worked by means of the existing standard cotton textile machinery-a fact of enor- mous c nsl and economic im-

portance.

WELL REMEMBERED HERE

Mr. Smith, who is about 62 years of age, is stiiirelrlem ed by many of our Charlottetown citizens, though it is about forty years since he left his native Province to take up resi- dence in New Bedford, Mass, centre of the New England textile industry.

Mr. C. Harry Foster, Ehlston Street, an old schoolmate of Mr. Smith's at St. Peter's Day School, ra- calls that the now famous inventor was “all boy" as a youngsten-"full of life, his pranks leading him intn escaped that I laugh over still", said Mr. Foster. He was very clever with his goods, and could invent all kinds sudcvtmbutstschool he did not shine, "being too full of mischie to be a model student."

Other fellow students of Mr. smith at St. Peter's Day School were Messrs. Charles Earle, Charles

Fred Morris and Colonel William Cooke.

Mr. Smith's mother was born at Covehead, this Province. Eighty- four years of age, she now lives at South Dartmouth, US, Mr. Wil- liam Smith. of Fred H. Trainor plumbing firm, city, is an uncle. Mrs. ‘rhea. 0119-3913911. Brighton. is an aunt. and Messrs. A. Irwin, oi Irwin Printing company, and W. A. smith, City Police Clerk, are cousins.

Mr. Smith's father, who died about sixteen years ago, also pos- sessed lnventive talent and among other-things constructed very fine

odek of ships, working models of 131811195. etc-

At New Bedford, Mass, where Mr. Smith removed as a young man, he took up mechanical drafting and foundry work. Later he went to work in a cotton mill. After going to New Bedford, he married Miss Anna Davis, daughter of one of the embe of the firm. His first iin- portant invention was a silencer tube for torpedoes, which he sold to the British Admiralty just prior t0 the outbreak oi the World War. His future progress. and the suc- cess attending his efforts in revolu- tionizing the textile industry, will be followed with the lteenest inter- est in this Province.

The Guardian is indebted to Mr. A. W. Hyndman, Msna of the Royal Bank of Canada. for the Wall Street Journal clipping which was forwarded from the bank's New York agency with the suggestion that any further data regarding the possibilities of Mr. Smith's flax

easing invention would be of interest there.

Integrity Matter O f R e c o r d‘

WINNIBIB. Feb. 0-8011. B. A. McPherson, Manitoba's provincial treasurer, today said there was no justification for the reaction on the London market which resulted in Manitoba bonds ceasing to sell, sf- ter selling over par. and dropping about three points. He said the re- action icilowed interest reduction proposals by Mayor G. G. McGee: of Vancouver.
