SIR. HERBERT AMES’ VISIT.

' NIGHT in the Heartz Memor- ial Hall, Charlottetown, Sir Herbert Anies will deliver an ad- dress on the Changing Spirit of Europe.

As our readers know, the aim of the League of Nations of which Sir l-Icrbert was financial director for seven years, is _ to achieve permanent peace throughout the world. Universal peace can be se- cured only by universal education.

The international distrust which islmaimi. i0 the attention oi» Mamie,‘ accountable for most oi the wars of [Mackenzie King on his remm to history must be removed, and this Canada

also is one of the aims of the} League. The fear of fear intensi-l fies fear and often causes us tol take up arms against imaginary‘, evils. League of Nations Societiesl are being organized the world over for the purpose oi disseminating confidence and mutuallr trust. Sir Herbert's address tonight; canot fall to be an illuminating one and should be heard by all who want to inform themselves as toi the movement for universal peace. His Honor Lieutenant Governor

ORPHANAGE CAMPAIGN.

HE annual campaign maintenance fund of the Princcl Edward Island Protestant Orphan- age is now under way. under di- rection of the Board of Trustees. This institution has become a ne- cessity in this Province, and doing splendid work for the poor children who have been left home- less and parentless. These children are the legitimate wards of the Christian people of the Province. and the appeal on their behalf has always been cheerfully responded to. The Orphanage is a graduating schoolto desirable homes through- out the Province. Seventy children pass through the institution annll- ally, and in the past several years many who would otherwise have been homeless have been placed in homes where they ‘are being cared for and trained for usefulness and honorable citizenship.

The trustees are giving their time and work gratuitously in this noble endeavor on behalf of the unfor- tunate little ones, and it Ls hoped that their efforts this year will meet with deserved success. v

The objective for this year is $5,- 000: and if our people do their duty the sum will be reached without

That ship model represented more than a year of work in design and construction. But Laurence Wilder had been working on the plan for almost three years. Before the idea was made public, he had got his ship design, formed his company, assembled his technical and advis- ory personnel, built up his working organization, and had ready for the construction of vessels the largest shipyards in the world. when the plan was presented it was not some- thing that some one would like to do. but something for the complete accomplishment of which every- thing was in readiness!

The average speed promised for the new liners is 33 knots an hour; if this seems too rosy a promise, it should be remembered that the Saratoga, completed under Mr. Wil- dens supervision, makes more than 31 knots.

Moreover, by making from 32 to 3'1 round trips a year- the Majestic makes only 14—Mr. Wilder is able to promise passenger

wlmt to go on_to new accomplish- ment. i

This new accomplishment proved to be the Scintllla Magneto Com- pany, making airplane ignition to take the place of what had form- erly come from Germany. By new scientific methods this company, by 1925, had so perfected its product . as to raise the duration of airplane] ignition from 1'1 to 1000 hours. The‘ Scintllla Company. whose magnetos were used on the Lindbergh, Cham- berlin and other long distance flights, has now a 100 per cent. con- tract with the United States Navy. This work is a. part of Laurence Wilders passion for applied science.

When Mr. Wilder formed the American Brown-Boveri Corpora- tion in 1925, the new corporation took in the New York Shipbuilding

To Laurence Wilder the matter of‘ the four-day crossing of the Atlan- tic is a scientific problem. He isn't urging Americans to support his project froln patriotism: that wouldn't be scientific. But he is firmly convinced that he can estab- lish a great merchant marine for America by operating. as bllfilllflss man and practical scientist, the best steamship service in the world.

Q. When were the Yukon Gold discoveries madea?

A. The gold iscoverics on the Yukon are somewhat in dispute. One record assigns it to Robert Hender- son, a Nova Scotlan, on August 1'7- 1896; another claim is that J. W. Cormack, a Dominion Land Survey- or under William Ogilvie was the. first to locate a claim on klondyke| River and Bonanza Creek which resulted in a 801d W511- The first discovery of the Chilcott route into the Yukon was made by John McKenzie int 1880 and he was also the first man to run the White Horse rapids.
