Who's who In P. 1:. Island Agriculture

IG- . ' o

Leo P. Mclssso

Selected for the position oi per-

Prince Edward- Island Federation of Agriculture, Mr. Leo P, McIssac will take up his duties as soon as he is released from the ment of Agriculture.

Born in 1922 on the family farm at Cherry Valley, Queen's County, Mr. Mclsaac attended Esrnscliffe School. Thence to St. Dunstan's University, where his studies were interrupted by his father's iii- health. Leo managed the home farm from 1937 until he enlisted in the Royal Canadian Air Force in 1941. During his period of service he took several short courses in lead- ership, and availed himself cf some of the courses available in agriculture. With the various ser- vice facilities, he finished his high- school education while serving as ground-crew instructor until he was discharged in 1945. Hack in civilian life, Mr. Mclsasc took a special course in agricul- tural economics and cooperative tension work st Toronto and the Ontario Agricultural Collage at Guelph. Returning to Prince Edward Is- land, he worked with the Exten- sion department st S. D. U. unt-l he joined the taff of the Provin- ciel Department of Agriculture in November 1946, directing extension activities, Farm Forum and the work of the Junior Farmers. On July 1, 1947, Miss Mary Cal- laghan, New Wiltshlre became Mrs. Leo Mcisaac and the family con- sists of 11-month old Anita Marie. Apart from his work, which takes up a great many oi his evenings, Mr, Mclsaac is on ardent reader in the fields of economics, IOCiOLOEy and agriculture. He believes that one of the main sstisfactions of life is gained by working towards a general understanding of_ each cthei-‘s problems and solving them through co-operative effort. I-lls favourite motto is "Be Practical" and he believes that the successful life is lived on the farm and thnt happiness there requires both effi- ciency in farming and a broader outlook to those things beyond the farm.

cf Canadian and United States forces preoccupied, cutting down on the forces available for notion in more active theatres.

The object. therefore, is to evolve techniques that would enable such enemy forces to be wrinkled out quickly and decisively, using min- imum mimibers of troopo.

Training programs here incorp- orate lessons learned from the Eskimo. the Indian, Canadian iumberiscks and bush pilots. the Scandinavian countries, the Russo- Finnish war and the Alpine cam- paigns of the First World War.

The winter program was the most intensive schedule of cold- weather tests yet undertaken at this “mystery" base on the shore of Hudson's Bay. Top-secret re- ports now are being written for Ottawa, Washington and London. and preparations are being made for heavier program next winter.

Earlier tests at Churchill were primarily to see if soldiers could live for long periods in the Arc- tic, and if weapons and n, ', 1 would dc their job in cold, snow and ice. This winter the tests were carried a step further-to see if troops in the Arotle Qid operate ss combat units.

initial results were discouraging, but enough was learned toiay the foundation for a whole new rule- book for the "foot sloggers". lnfantryrnan will tramp on foot. perhaps wesr- sledge behind him, and -' ‘ snowhanks or lgioos.

Protestant members of the Ga- nsdian Legion participating in yes- terday's Memorial Day parade st- tended It. hulk Church, where a wtclsl service appropriate to the commemoration of V-E Day was conducted by the Rector, Rev. James T. Ibbott, assisted by the I-symenk Choir under the direct- ion of Mr. Royston ll‘, Mugford. The hymns chosen were specially suited to the day, ss wss the sn- them "A Song of Peace," which is set to the lovely music composed by Sibelius for the Finnish National Song "Finllndis." The layman's Choir sang this with great beauty and true devotional feeling, be- sides lending splendid support to the effective rendition of the psalms and hymns.

After the sermon, in remembrance of those who served and those who paid the supreme sacrifice, Kip- ling’: Recessionai was smg. A wreath was then presented. on be- half oi the Charlottetown branch of the Canadian Legion, to the Rector who pieced it on the altar. After s period of silence and a pray- er of remembrance the memorial hymn "O Valiant Hearts. Who To Your Glory Came" was sung. followed by the sounding of the Last Post and Reveille by s trumtpter of the 17th Reece Regi- men .

Looking Bsek

The Rector, who delivered the address, chose his text from the Book of Deuteronomy, “Beware lest thou forget. . .But thou shalt remember." ,

“At the time Moses wrote these words he was approaching death, having led the children of Isrsci to the border of the Promised Land, which he knew he could not enter," the speaker said. "Moses was one hundred and twenty years old when he died; his eye was not dim, nor his natural force abated. He felt inspired to leave to his nation s word of guidance and a word oi hope. And cf the Book of Deuteronomy, we may‘ say that it is a. book of national rememb- rance.

“And now. on this V-B Day of 1040, it behovcs us to look back - not very long, just five years, and i am sure you will agree with me that those words of Moses should be heard and heeded by us. so frelghted are they with significance at this time.

Memories Too Short

"Only foolish men, and those tyrants who play the despot over others, have forgotten the history of the past. But too many have memories not alert enough for those things they should remem- ber. Too often our memories are far too short.

"Let me quote from the words of a veteran who gave his life for us in this last war: ‘I only hope that when this war is over you people won't forget.’ Or words like theser ‘I am afraid that the clay

ing to return t0 their narrow aspirations and lives, and for- get. . ."'

The speaker went on to quote the verses of another veteran, W. R. Stewart, which exemplified the poignancy of memories of battle experiences:

‘Rain in the blackness, stabs flame in the blackness. whines and groans in the blackness. Remember?

AGAIN.

Rockets at dawn, Shells come and sone. Mists in the dawn. Cheers in the dawn. Remember? REMEMBER AGAIN.

own. ‘Those who were crippled and those who are in hospitals frore war dissbiemsnts will not soon forget, Nor will those who have. since the war, been forced under a rule. Obligations 0i Victory

"V-E Day is for us a day of significance -- a day of victory. But we may well ask, ‘A victory over whet?’ We overcame. it is true, the forces of Hitler, Mussolini, and, a little later, the Japanese. But we must remember, on this

ions this victory entails.

"World War I we meant to be ‘a war to end all wars,’ but some- how we slipped; somewhere we failed, and let fall the torch that had been given us by our hero dead to hold high for them. And so World War II csme on.

"And this time we vow we're going to make sure the world will be made safe for Christian Demo- cracy. But now one nation thwart- ed our efforts in this direction."

The speaker went on to em- phasize the extent of British and U. S. aid to Ruuia during her struggle with the German armies by providing war material and sup- piles at great cost and bimien to themselves, and asked, "Has Russia forgotten this?"

"We need," he said "to remember this in these days when subversive activities, in strikes and other forms, were becoming so evident in our countries, But we can't overcome this evil influence by merely shouting out unmet it. We must. if we expect our demo- cracy to prevail, show the world by deeds of kindness, benevolence and brotherhood that ours is the better way."

Sounds Warning

Mr. Ibbott then proceeded to criticise the tendency among some Canadians to drop the name "British" from the Commonwealth, and their relations with it. "l ask you." he said. "who saved the world twice in our generation from the forces of tyranny and oppress- ion? Who but Britain?"

I-le also castigated the move ifiostered vby certain elements in Canada. to displace the Union Jack with a "Canadian Flag.” "The motive is definitely anti-British. Our Union Jack is sacred in its very make-up, formed as it is cf the Crosses cf St. George, St. Andrew and St. Patrick. Don't be fooled into thinking that the move to play down the Union Jack is just Canadian nationalism — look a little deeper."
