A Seasonaiierll

Once more with the approach of cold and unpleasant weather motorists are fac- ing the dangers of carbon monoxide poison- ing. It is tempting to drive with the car windows closed and even to sit in the sta- tionary car with the engine running and windows tight shut. If everything is new and tight the result may be no worse than that of sitting in a closed room but un- fortunately the exhaust system does not usually remain in perfect condition and defects have a way of developing where they remain unseen under the feet of passengers. When that happens the way is open for tragedy unless proper attention is constantly paid to ventilation.

Cold weather is also apt to inducc. motorists to work on their cars in a closed garage with the engine running, a practice about on a par with playing Russian rou- lette so far as safety is concerned

There are other factors which add to the danger of motoring as winter ap- proaches. The longer hours of darkness extend the period of night driving when the accident rate increases. Bundled-up pedestrians are apt to be harder to see than if dressed in summer costumes. Wet leaves, and later. patches of ice reduce the efficiency of braking and steering, all too often at a critical moment.

It all adds up to the fact that greater care is required for safe driving than has been necessary during the past half-year. There is no need for the accident rate to go up, however, if that care is exercised and due consideration shown for other users of the highways.

Tile tleltlc congress

The Celtic Congress held recently in Glasgow was attended by delegates from the Scottish Highlands, Wales, the Isle of Man, Brittany, and the Republic of Ireland. Peter Lyne, reporting in the Christian Sci- ence Monitor, said the congress disclosed that, whereas there is growing strength of nationalist feeling in the Celtic countries or communities, the ancient Gaelic languages are fighting for the most part a gradually losing baittle.

Delegates to the congress expressed the view that a greater measure of autonomy eventually will have to be granted Scot- land and Wales. The old Gaelic in Ireland has become an official language although the majority don't speak it, and every sort of government encouragement and assist- ance is given for its revival. In Wales the ancient tongue is more widely spoken than in any other Celtic land. Welsh choral singing probably has much to do with it. The Welsh National Eisyeddfod and other festivals of music, poetry, literature and art contribute strength to Welsh national feeling.

As for Scotland. Mr. Lyne wrote: "The report on Scotland's Gaclici-language situ- ation was less reassuring to the congress. Alexander Nicolson, a former lecturer in

which suggests that Stonehenge belongs to

a more advanced civilisation than that of the Bronze Age Barbarians of Southern England. a

Professor Stewart Piggott of Edinburgh University, speaking in the British Radio Newsreel, said that for some time they had been working on the archaeological ma- terial of Salisbury Plain, Wessex and Southern England in general. It seemed to them, from material which came main- ly from burials in the barrows surround- ing Stonehenge, that there had been con- siderable trade contact between Southern and South-Western England and Mycenean Greece round about 1500, and other ar- chaeological evidence from Western Europe confirmed this. For many years archae- ologists had felt that Stonehcnge must rep- resent a centre of religious and ritual in- tent round which the burial mounds of the princelings and rulers of Southern Eng- land were placed. The stone structure as seen today must by inference have be- longed to this period. but there was no di- rcct evidence for dating Stonehenge.

Those newly discovered carvings can be fairly accurately dated in the Eastern Mediterranean; especially that of the dag- ger if they have been right in believing it to be of the Mycenean type. The carvings would then constitute almost a signature of the period and would give some indica- tion of the actual builders of Stonehenge.

Yugoslavia lost the backing of the free nations in her claims to Trieste by for a time throwing in her lot with the Soviet Union.

Gaelic at Glasgow Training Centre, said there were Seolsmen who considered the ability to speak Gaelic to be a mark of in- rcriorily. He .complaincd there was not a Scottish chief and scarcely a landed pro- prictor who could speak the old language. Gaelic was out of fashion. Sheriffs ignoredl it. Of all the senior secondary high schools in the Highlands, only two had Gaelic-l zpeaking hcadmastcrs." i

"Perhaps," comments the Sydney Post- Record. "the Gaelic scholars of Old Scot- land will yet have to look to Cape Breton island for sustaining strength to keep the ald language a living tongue, and it might be appropriate if the Idna of the newI world at Barra Strait of Bras zi'Or Lake, became the sign and the token of the Gae- lic survival. No language is completely lost so long as its words are raised in song,

The Origin Of the group of massive stones at Stonehenge on Salisbury Plain in England, notes on exchange, may be near- er a solution. This remarkable structure is generally accepted as the most important piece of antiquity in England, and now newevidence as to thegmonurnentb prob- able date-has now been I i fby a party of '-diaon from Edln University, which has rcogntly uncovered some atone: no at dag,-

From the Prime Minister of Greece comes a pictorial record of "Ionian Trag- edy," a small book which vividly depicts the Greek earthquakes of August 9-12, 1953. More thari one hundred thousand people on those three historic.,-islands have lost their material and spiritual posses- sions. "This ordeal," as the preface states, "finds Greece still engaged in the task of repairing the ruins left by her recent struggles. This last catastrophe is bound to delay the development of resources vital- ly necessary not only.to the devastated is- lands but to the country as a whole."

Charlottetown's civic pension scheme is actuarily unsound according to the report of a survey presented to the City Coun- cll. As pointed out by Councillor John- stone the report does not indicate how much .the plan was in the red from the start because of credit given for service before its inauguration. What the city it faced with is the financing of the original cost of commencing the scheme, the making up of the deficit caused by inadequate con- tributions since its commencement and the
