To Stamp Print Butler By Grade

The stamping of Island manu- faciured print butter according to grade will become effective on July 1 this year it was announced last night by Dairy Superintendent Henry J. MacDonald. at a com- blned meeting of the directors of the Dairymen'a Association and Island creamery managers in the Federation of Agriculture offices.

Pruided over by Mr. R. A. Profltt. Freetown. the meeting dealt at length with the grading of cream. The month un- anlmously endorsed the cream grading policy announced last year. which provided that only special and firet grades would be accepted by the crearneriea. They expressed hope that the farmers would cc-operate in this matter.

One of the main causes of poor cream grades. stated Mr. R. A. Profitt. is the washing of separ- ators with warns skim milk. After years of experience. he continued. I have found that far better re-. suits are obtained by the use of cold water.

The meeting made arrangements for the printing of special notices which will be forwarded by the cresmeriel to the farmers as notifications of their grades. It was suggested that a supply of pamphlets sufficient for all cream- ery patrons on the Island be made and explanation: of test varia- tions and the regulations regard- ing cream testing and grading be given.

Mr. J. S. Wright, Manager of the Dunk River Dairy reported on his recent trip to Newfound- land emphasizing the need for quality and the orderly market- ing of products. He pointed out the necessity for the one pound -butter prints and the small pack- aging of cheese.

The meeting expressed ” ' - tion that the Government was constructing separate storage fa- cilities for dairy products. They hoped that the cheese and butter would be packaged in separate quarters of the new construction.

Trinity church Women's Auxiliary iioid Meeting

Mrs. Stanley -rhompeon presided at the May meeting of the Mary Miller Auxiliary of the W.M-5-- Trinity United Church. Charlotte- town, which was held in Heartz Hall last Monday evening. At the close of the business session. a pre- sentation was made to a valued member. Mrs. Gerald Bowness. who leavecshortly with her family to make her home in Vancouver. 13.0.

The Auxiliary was happy to have with them again Miss Beryl Mor- non. Missionary on furlough. and had invited the Bunbury Auxiliary- thc Mission Circle and the After- noon Auxiliary of Trinity Church to join with them in a special meeting held in I-Ieartz Hall at 8.15 p.m. The Mission circle. pira- sided over by Mrs. George Adams. conducted the devotions. which were opened by the singing 0! I-M hymn "Rise up oh Men of God". followed by prayer by Miss Ruth Cudmore. An offering in aid of Miss Mo:-son's work in India. was taken and dedicated. Miss Cudmor:-. read portions of the scripture and the hymn "Jesus Calls Us o'er the Tumult" was sung.

Mrs. Thompson in a few well chosen words welcomed the mem- bers ot the Bunbury Auxiliary, and introduced the truest speaker. Miss Beryl Morson. Miss Morton's Mis- sion station is in Central India. where she is engaged in evangel- istic work. or Miss Morson it may be said "on furlough,in Canada. she continuallv serves India". In her district of about forty miles long by forty miles in breadth. there are 120 villages. some acces- sible only by ox cart or on foot. Where even a single Christian was to be found an effort was made to visit their locality at least once a year. Many more workers, are needed for evangelistic. med-! ical and educational work. When' camping these workers are besieg- ed for medical help which is given wherever possible. The Indian Gnvemment is making a valiant effort to overcome illiteracy and to bring medical help to the masses. but it will take a long time to train teachers and workers. In the meanti there is a grand opport- unity for the Christian Church to serve.

A member of the Bunbury Aux- ilinry graciously thanked the Mary Miller Auxiliary for the invitation to be present at this meeting. The meeting closed with the singing of the hyman. "Oh Master Let Me Work with Thee". and benediction by Miss Morson.

Mrs. Thompson extended an in- vitaticn to all present to go to the Social Hall. There refreshments were served and a delightful hour of fellowship enjoyed.

The dance will be sponsored jointly by the Canadian Legion and the Ladies' Auxiliary. in response to a letter received from Headquarters at Ottawa.

Engineers said three high rail- way embankmenta would contain any water which might break through the dike which skirts Ille- Gillivray Boulevard in northern Fort Gary. The only underpass could be filled promptly.

Flooding would be confined to an area of several square miles bounded an east and wea by Cs.- nadian National and anadinn Pacific Railway lines and on the north by an ealt-west C.N.R. line.

Pownal Players Well Iieceiyed

The Pownal Y P. 17. Players got away to a good start with their three-act farce comedy "Meet The Husband", when on May with the attractive Pownal Hall was filled to capacity. many people finding standing room only. and some fall- ing to gain admission. Witty lines and swift action coupled with clever acting makes this a. really hilariously funny play. The aud- ience so far have responded with generous applause throughout an evening of downright comical sit- uations which appeared to keep them in stitches.
