i.st's Talk" It Over

A'Princs County Viewpoint

While planning for a bright. brsvs future is highly commend. able. there is also something to be said for the poet who reminds us. "The present is all thou hast.” If You also too intently at s bright star of promise. you may trip over an o tructlon right at your feet.

Th .Trans-Csnads Highway is a project which Islanders. as well as other Canadians. are looking forward to with considerable sat- isfaction. But the completion of this splendid coast-to-coast artery of travel is still farther away than the immediate future. while right before us in the here (1961) and now (Prince County) there are road conditions which cry out for correction.

O O 0

Specifically. there are two un- paved rtretches. ti) between the Red Bridge outside of summer- side and the Dunk River Bridge in Bedeque (ll) between New Ann- an and Kcnslngton. which. if we sr- to present any kind. of a re- speciable "front door" to the tour- ists who visit the Garden of the Gulf ' next summer. should be paved at the first favorable oppor- tunlty.

Those sections which were once paved but broke up under heavy truck travel and spring frost con- ditions are fast becoming serious bottlenecks in our Island highway system. Thr are. ....til the Trans- Canada Highway becomes a re- ality, part of the main highway leading from the Car-Ferry in Bsrde to Prince Edward Island's two 1 est centres. Charlottetown and Bummer-side.

On our tourist's maps they are narked "paved" and this bit of misinformation adds to the annoy; ance of tourists who are caught between the "devil of wsahboatd" and the deep sea of mud that make these stretches of highway at times barely passable.

The apple merchant, be he ever so honest, cannot forbcar to put a few of the largest, juiclest apples pn the top of the barrel. .At the top of our "highway barrel." l.e., at the front entrance to curl Million- Acre Farm, we have travel con- ditions calculated to sour all but the most optimistic tourists before they travel twenty miles. This dis- graceful condition should not be permitted to continue. It should be remedied this summer.

British Army but one.

They got to France in Decem- ber. 1011, with the British 2'lth Division and went into the trench- es ground st. Eloi the night of Jan. 6-7. 1915. They later were transferred to the Canadian army.

To this day the date of the battle of l-lerenbe . fought with heavy losses May ii. 1015, is mark- ed with teremonial tribute as the unit's most important anniv- crsary. But their first war record went beyond that first major fight to -include Mount soel. Fierc- Courcellette, Vimy Ridge. Pas- schendaeic. Amlens. scarce and the pursuit to Mtons.

They won th Victoria Cross- es and 366 0th gallantry awards. suffered two casualties.

Permanent Porceyllnit After the war the unit became

a permanent force regiment and in 1069 part of the lat division. By

New Years Day. 1940, its men were in barracks at Aldershot. England.

Their fighting record began ag- ian at Pachlno, Sicily, July 10. 1043. when the lat Division began actions that were to go on for nearly two years in Sicily. Italy and Northwest Europe.

In Sicily they fought actions at heonfortc. Nissoria Ridge, Aglra and Hsewhere. In Italy they for ht up the length of the pen- insula. plrticipated in the engage- ments th:.' built up into the fury of the Moro crossing and the fight- ing around Ortons.

They helped crack the Hitler line in May 1044. the Gothic Line that fall and then pitched into their second bitter Italian winter. one that took them into violent actions in the Po Valley. 'I'llelr last action came in Holland. in an assault crossing of the Ijessel River. '

Their actions took a toll of all officers killed and LN! wounded. They won 4'! gallantry awards.

After the war. the regirnent once again resumed its role as a permanent force unit and there now are three battalions bearing, ltl name. ,9

The 1st Battalion is the para-

lxerclss Bweetbriar a year sg and which is part of the airborne brhads. earmarked for Canadian defence. Its headquarters are at csisary.

The 2nd Battalion is in Korea. The lrd Battalion, so far only call- ed a training battalion. is at Pbrt hswis, Wash. training with the special force.

For the past couple of years we have had to pay taxes to the city on the Nurses' Residence, and beginning with the first of Dec- ember. 1960. we have had to pay for our water supply. Just what the water supply will cost us we cannot tell, as the water depart- ment has only given us a tentat- ive rate.

However. it will probably cost us, even at the present rate. about 31.500 per year. It is hoped that the city will see its war clear to increase their grant this year. The grant given us by the City is just sisoo per year. so that under present arrangements we will be paying back to the City more than we receive, yet at the same time the number of free patients from the City is increas- ing.

Advance In Bates

Very regretfully the Board last Dccemllfer found it necessary to advance the rates of the hospital the first of January. 1951. The advance was approximately 1:) per cent.

During the year T. A. Laldiaw. B.A.: M.D.: C.M.: F.R.CE.. was added to the Medical Staff. and Miss Mary Hill was engaged as assistant dietitian. '

one of the hospital's difficulties is visitors. We have far too many visitors in the hospital. If the public could be taught to realize that when a patient comes to the hospital he is sick and needs rest and quiet. sndils not in a physical condition to entertain visitors. then the number of days a patient would have to spend in the hos- pital would often be l -'

Measures are being taken to try to remedy this condition. but if they feel they must visit patients. then make their stay short. After all. a cheery card, flowers, or in many cases a good hook. would do far more to help the patient re- cover than any visiting.

The reports of the Ladies Aid. the Junior Ladies Aid. the W0- He-Lo Club will be presented to you. I will not go into detail re- garding the work of these var- ious organizations. They have done a lot of good work during the year. and they have the sincere thanks of the trustees for their valuable assistance. The report of the Nursing School will also be given.

Financial statement

The financial report will be presented by Mr. J. A. Likely. chairman of the Finance Commit- tee. The financial statement for the year does not look good. but it is not quite as bad as it ap- pears. owing to the fact that the next three months are busy months for the hospital. and ordinarily they would be included. However. even allowing for this. we would show a deficit, and it is hoped that by raising the rates we will be able to at least break even during the next year.

Miss A. J. Mair. Superintendent. will in October complete twenty- flve years of faithful service to this institution as superintendent.

I think I should mention here that Mr. Arthur Madmachern. who has been s. faithful employee of this hospital for the past twenty years. is at the present time ill. Mir. Macllachern has been one of our most faithful employees.

To the press. the clarity. anti all others whoin any wayhave help- ed the hospital during the put

veal-, we extend our sincere thanks. The following trustees retire

this year: If. L. Bear, E. A. Cud- more and In. J. W. Mackenzie. all of whom are eligible for re- election.

Caretakerili Bloomfield) Church Severely Burned

.whst alight easily have been a very serious firs occurred on Wed. nesdsy night at the Bloomfield United Church about 8 o'clock. when the caretaker. Mrs. Es Cornish was painfully binned when a gasoline lamp she was liwung took fire. It cauult her stockings. her hair and her coat. She dropped the lamp on the floor of the ulurch porch and ruined outside. The flames were quickly beaten out but not before they had inflicted I very painful burn on her hand and severe burns on he legs. Her hair wls singed and me was sul- fcrlng from mock. She was taken to O'Lea.ry to the Tumer Nursing Home and her painful burns dress- ed by Mrs. Alice Turner R. N. on instructions of Dr. L. G. Dewar of O'Leary. She was then driven to -her home in Mill River Road.

when the lamp caught her clothes lafire. Mrs. Cornish tlhrew it on the Church floor and in a moment the whole porchiwas I raging inferno. inside the Church at t-he time was Elder Albul Cras- well and Mrs. Craawell and their two daughters. Leila and Lila and Mrs. Ira Hardy of Mill River Road. They could not get out by the main door as the porch was a. mass of flames. Fortunately the Church -has another exit, tihe choir door. and they were able to escape via that door. If that was not there, they would either be burned to death or severely burned.

When he left by the choir door exit, Mr. Craswell grabbed a broom and began to beat out the fast 5-preadin-g flames and he took a slllovel and shovelled some earth and snow on the flames. By this time the Minister and other mem- bers of the congregation had ar- rived and neighbors hurried to the scene, uhe fire was put out. The in- side doors were blistered. the porch floor was badly scorched and like- wise the walls and the ceiling of Uh-e porch.

When the fire had been put out, it was not possible to have the Lenten prayer meeting at the Church as it was filled with smoke etc. so it was held at the home of Elmer Knoiiin. next to the Church and tho Minister, Rev. W.G. Dick- son asked the large congregation to sing with fervor the Doxoiogy as a prayer to Almighty God for sparing their beautiful Church building and for the fact that no one was hurried to death. He then preached a Lenten sermon on the text: ”We preach Christ Crucified."

REQUESTS ELTELLATIOII

Continued from page 1

other points on the south shore.

The resolution. debated yesterday for a time. was defeated on a voice vote. Before the vote. Mr. Pinard said he was ready to withdraw the resolution on the understanding that Mr. Chevrier would reopen negotiations with the Quebec gov- ernment on the toils question.

If nothing is done. he said. a similar resolution will. be presented at the next session.

Mr. Chevrler said the tolls on the Jacques Cartier bridge are col- lected under terms of an agree- ment among the National Harbors Board, the city of Montreal and the Quebec Government. Each party agreed to pay one-third of the cost of maintenance of the bridge.

In i944. the city of Montreal stopped paying its share. An action was taken against the city and the Court ordered it to renew payment. An appeal against the decision is pending.

He did not think negotiations to- ward obtaining abolition of the tolls should be resumed until the court has given its decision.

There also was the practical question, said Mr. chevrier. The National Harbor Board obtained more than 81,000,000 s. year from the tolls. The Canadian National Railways lecelved a large amount from the tails on Victoria Bridge. Both the Board and the .C.N.R. would agrss to drop the toils if as- sured other sources of revenue.

Mr. Chevrler made no reference to Mr. McLure's request that the Prince Edward inland Government should be relieved of paying 010,000 a year toward the upktep of a bridge over the Hillsboro River at Charlottetown. p
