The report of the retiring presid- ent, Mr. Poiricr showing a member- ship of 54 Credit Unions and tie Co-operative societies in the Prov- ince, appears elsewhere in todays issue. It was adopted along with the report of the managing director Mr. J.G, Dennis, and the financial statement.

Gain In Assets

Mr. Dennis reported a gain in as- sets of 550.000, with monthly cash reports, the sum received on shares and deposits, very good. The guar- anty fund showed an increase over the previous year of 34,350. Plans are being made in some of the larg- er districts to have full time Credit Union offices.

At Summerside. either the pres- ent ccredit unions should be ex- panded to take in more areas, or a new community credit iinlon org- aiiized open to all residents of Sum-

Domlnlon competitions. and radio, broadcasts among others. Slim made a pnrtioiilar appeal to tho, mothers present to see that re- creation is not allowed to inter- fere with ihcir children's alien- dancc at their junior clubs, and to the parents to ninke n point of attending the achievement days.

Mrs. Oscar MatiNeill of Con- way read the rcport on Arts and Literature in which she warned that it is all too easy for educa- tion to degenerate info a means of acquiring more material wealth, rather than, as it should be. "a sense of acquiring real values in life." Encouraging re- ports were also read concerning the P. E. 1. Drama Festival. the South Shore Musical Festival and the P. E. I. Musical Festival, nil showing the way in which these

movements have expanded in re- cent years. Miss Mary MacLennan in :1

most interesting talk which she labeled "Blsley"-A Happy Dream Come True", told of many of her experiences nnd places in Great Britain she visited last year when she travelled to that country as a member of the Canadian Bisloy team.

The program for the afternoon concluded with a delightful gar- den party given by His Honour Lieulenant Govt-rnor T. W. L. Prowae and Mrs. Prowse on the lawn at Government House in honour of the delegates, and they were the guests of lhe Depart- ment of Agriculture at a dinner at the Charlottetown Hotel in the evening.

ed into a nation-wide project, and Mrs. Laird, the provincial presi- dent, announced after Miss 0 - ner'a address that the llomema - ers' Club at Leniiox Island had been invited to send representatives to the convention.

Miss Oxner pointed out that the Homemakcrs' clubs had an ad- dltional influence in Saskatchewan through their affiliation with the Provincial council of Women. and she described the organization of this council. it starts on the local

conditions under which organisat- ions in the two Provinces operate, are, she pointed out, due largely to the fact that Saskatchewan is still to. young Province, and the pioneer spirit still exists in Saskat- chewan. To this spirit, she feels. many of the Homemakers Clubs in Saskatchewan owe a large rneasuru of their success, and many of their projects are made more interesting by the wide diversity of racial groups which is a factor in the life of the prairie provinces.

Among The Indians

she described their efforts to tom Homemake clubs an-ion: the Indians of the province. This pro- tect was later taken over by the lndinn Affairs Branch of the Dom-

; run in level. with local councils of wom- fr(i,airi)iial-ifriommgtnii:ioi?ial.Il1ea,z.vxvlass an in. en formed by representatives from spmns W,” t each women's organizations in a

The differences ' . the ” . and rear "lives of

the local councils in turn form the provincial council which provides a great service in being able to sound out the opinion of all the women in the province.

Primarily Educational

She remarked that there were many people who considered Homemakers Clubs charitable or- ganisations. and she hastened to point out that while they assist. the needy of a community, they are primarily an educational institut- ion. In closing she quoted Dr. C. J. Macltensle. formerly head of the National Research Council, who had commended the Homema” . for their outstanding work or

many years in the field of adult

mcrslde and vicinity. Mr. Dennis said. In Charlottetown the City Cl'F-till unions should be made avail. able 50 8 larger area of the sur- rounding districts.

Mr. Dennis reported that Monta- Blle. Souris and Hunter River may need the services of credit unions. He expressed regret that the Pro- vmrial Government grant had been decreased, while other Provinces were being treated better in this respect. The highest percentagg or members to population of any place in Canada was regarded as s 1193"-lly and satisfying sign.

Rev. Father Maclfinnon of the St. Francis Xavier Extension De- Pmimenl. spoke briefly, explain. llllz the aims and objects of the Credit Unions and the power they had in their hands to expand and improve conditions in a demo- Cmill? lV8.V- By saving regularly and investing wisely in ppodup. live loans. great assistance would be rendered the co-operative movement to the advantage of all concerned. Far too much money has to be raised outside the Credit Unions in finance the Co- operatives. when this should be donc through the "Financial Arm" of the movement, he maln- ialnml.

Mr. J: Legere, nlanaizer of the New Brunswick Co-ops, express- ed his great pleaslirg at being in attendance and complimented the members on the business way in which things were being con- ducted. "We can learn much from each other," he said, "and I am sure flint ihroulzhout tho Mari- timcs the movement has A great future."

Many in attendance were glad to have Mr. Legere speak for A short time in the French lan- guage.

Other speakers were Messrs. Donald Farrell. of the Maritime Co-op, Antigonish, and Don Smith. representing the Credit National Association. each of whom had it short message of special interest to those present.

Resolution Re Fishermen

Following is the full text of the resolution re flshermenls aid:

"Whereas the fishermen of P, E. I. have suffered a serious loss in their lobster fishing gear dur- ing this past spring season.

"And wheroos the Prince Ed- ward Island Flshermeni-l Associa- tion has made representation to the Federal and Provincial Gov- ernments to establish for the future a Disastery Fund. and for the present year to grant. compen- sation for ion of thelrfgcar.

New Road In Alberlon Area

- The travelling public from Miminegash, Ebbsfleet and St. Louis, going to Alberton inctne near future, instead of going around by way of Elmsdale will have s. new 66-foot highway running from the corner of the St. Louis Road and the Western Road. through the fields to connect with the Tignlsh-Alberton Highway near the Montrose River, a few miles out from the town of Alberton.

The new road, which is about two miles long, is being constructed by the firm of Morrison and Mc- Rae Ltd. and is expected to be completed before the end of July. When it is opened to the general public a saving of about eight miles will be made from the present, method of going to Alberton via Elmsdale. -
