have achieved sui-li a notewortliv

rm-oi-ii in nicrcantllc service as that of R. 'l'. liolnuin l.illllIt'il. which is cclcliruting this neck the one hun-

(irctlih aiinixcr.sui'y of its establish-

lncnl.

Its iouniicr. Mr. l1ubci't T. Hol- nuin. opened liii.-iiii--s ill a small way in Suinnicrsitle in the spring of 1837: but there was nothing small about his vision and frnivsiilli. HP b('ll9Wfl that a consistent policy of fair deal- ing amid llrilig its own reward in satisfied customers. and he made his estalilisliincnt a vital factor in the growth and lltlitll4lDl'llCi”lL of his com- munity. llis sons and grandsons who succeeded him in the business never lost sight of this cardinal principle, and the remarkable expansion which has taken place in the firm's activ- ities. from early years to the present time, is one in which all concerned may take legitimate pride. The firm name, of course, has long been 8 household word throughout this Province. Today its reputation ex- tends far beyond our shores. and has added prestige to Prince Edward Island commercially and in other ways.

To the president, Mr. Alan liol- man, the vice president, Mr. Harry Holman, and all the executive mem- bers and staff The Guardian extends warmest felicitations on this occa- sion.

The Music Festival

The twelfth annual Musical Fes- tival, now is progress, is creating Province-wide interest and the sch- edule of classes and events is the most ambitious yet attcmpeted by this fine organization.

From the start the idea of I competitive music festival proved I popular one, but few could have en- visioned the success it has actually achieved. The first festival, held May 20-23, 1947, was launched with some foreboding: but as the entries came in, the executive of the As- sociation realized that the original plan of I three-day programme would require revision. There were 371 entries, representing thirty-four communities. All the sessions were well attended and for the final con- cert on Saturday night, Prince of Wales College auditorium was filled to capacity. From that time to the present the movement. has gone steadily forward. This year the classes number some 283. and the contestants are in the thousands.

The contests have proved. very conclusively, that not only is there keen interest in music in Prince Ed- ward Island. but I great deal of latent talent as well. The develop- ment of this talent has been one of the major objectives of the Festival. But it has provcn of inestimable value to the cultural life of the whole community. Many of the orig- inal promoters are still actively as- sociated with the fcstival activities. and it'must be I matter of great pride and satisfaction to them to note the progrcm achieved. All con- cerned are to be commended on their efforts. and on the zeal and enthusiasm which have brought Ibout such wonderful results.

English Channel Tunnel

A dream which has interested

. engineers for almost 150 years once Iuin bids fair to become a realiza-

- tltm. Tbh is the construction of I ing beneath the English - g -10 link Britain with France. Eighty-nve years ago the question became I Icrlous one with the or- gmlmtion of the Channel Tunnel -Company. Work actually began in ; 13 hit was halted two years later it when military leaders in Britain saw

T Whocllotfie II I menace to BritIln'r

Economic ties with France. note: an exchange, are likely to lit-coiii-2 stronger. Six Western European countries recently signed tn-aties bringing them into a common mar- ket free of internal duties. Britain has great hopes for cooperation with this market. a factor which is cm- phasizing the advantages of unio- terrupted land transport between England and France.

Military menace in this i-onnci-- tion is now a thing of the past. Bri- tain can no longer enjoy the salrty of centuries provided by the lflllzllsll Channel. If there should bc an in- vasion from Europe it would coin" from the air. In any event the inci- lilies of a tunnel beneath the i-liaiiiiel could be blocked by the use of mod- ern explosives at a moment's lioiivv. It uoitld not be surprising if this timc revival of the plan for it t'llilll- nei tunnel is successfully aclx.-it-ll.

People To People

it is often said that if inicm;i- tional relations are to iniprmc. lli1l4'll

of the responsibility now being borne by governments will have to be ;i-- wuined directly by the people of the

various countries. To this cnii, av- ,

cording to a report from il';i-hing- ton. an organization known ii-' ”l'r-o- plc to People Partnerships" hits liven set up in the United Staiiw with Presidential approval. although no funds from the Federal trca.-ury have been made available. Already. more than a million (l(lll2ll'.S have been raised by intcrcsled groups for the purpose; and everything. so far. seems to he going well. The only direct aid given by the Government is the establishment of an "Office of Private ('0-operation" in the United States Information Agency. This of- fice will seek to co-ordinate the var- ious subsidiary committees.

Following are a few of the pro- jects already underway: A Book Puhlishers' Committee which will collect libraries to be sent abroad; an Advertising Council to make special movies: a Cartoonists' Com- mittee to provide for distribution of comic strips; 11 Civic Committee to arrange for exchange of visitors, newspapers, etc. between one coun- try and another: an Education Com- mittee to arrange college-to-college exchanges and scholarships: a Farm Bureaii to provide hospitality for visiting farmers; a Music and Maga- zine Committee; professional societies to provide law books and medical journals: :1 Sports Committee. to send baseball equipment where it is need- ed.

These committees and others like them are hard at work, trying in every way they can think of to pro- mote peace and goodwill. Something of the kind might be attempted in this country. It certainly could not do any harm. and it might do I lot of good in one way and another.

By PIlrick New York: The family motoring ,

in the States today has an entire- ly new nay of travel-life available. it is far removed from the per- haps clean but certainly comfort- less days of the few roadside ca- bins operated by the casual far- IIl('l'.

The huge "motor hotel" of 1957 offers all the convenience of park- ing your car adjacent to your bed- room, hut today this convenience is coupled with the comfort and amenities oi the must piushy mod- ern hotel.

Rolling It the permitted steady but snporific sixty miles per hour down the smooth uide turnpike: now grid-ironing the States, one passes quite I number of these I n I i c i n 5; new bed-for-the-night spots.

On my way down here. I stopped at one winch may be typical. but seemed to a Canadian to be the last word In plushiness. it was Ill brick: dCSiL'lICfl in the lay-out of I hollow square. Each bedroom of course had its own bathroom. with bath and show or. The whole was in- sulaied, while heating was indivi- dually controllable to the taste of the ccupants of each bedroom. CIIOICE OF FOOD

Visitors in the 200 suites had the choice of three restaurants. I had a dinner consisting of fresh fruit cup with sherbet. fried clams and shoe-string potatoes with salad. strawberry shortcake. and coffee. Good service. excellent cooking. generous helping: - I would not have to share the table with 8 huge chrome Ind glass and rainbow-lighted slot machine ven- ding liock 'n' Roll music.

After dinner. visitors had the choice of sitting in the lounge. lounging in either of two bars - or going to bed. I did the latter. re- laxing in comfort to watch tele- vision on the set provided in each room.

Although five miles from I city smaller than Ottawl. there was I choice of three Tv channels. I en- joyed 90 minutes of "The Yeomeu of the Guard" before falling Ilscep.

Another evening. I watched Tul- lulah Bankhcad acting "live." and Leslie Howard and lngred Berg- man in their very old success "in- tcrmczzn.”

The thought crossed my mind

ture. No politician in the States i has come up with any formula of . . I: way in making things eIsier for

nings millions of Americans - as

well as myself - must have thor- - oughly enjoyed television pro- grams of I standard very seldom approached by the C.i3.(3. And yet what were they? A very un-Amer- ic I in musical comedy seventy years old, coming from those dis- tinguished Englishmen Gilberg and Sullivan; I play starring In English-trained American Ictreiis; and I film starring In English actor and I Scandinavian actress. Nothing very redolent of home- grown American culture there. and nobody explained. AND THE COST?

From wall-to-wall broncloom. free television Ind beauty-rest bed to luxurious bathroom. the whole works cost 37 for I night. The din- ncr cost 51.75. Cheaper than I good hotel in the States. and Ip- proximnting to the coat of motel

But what one gets for the money in the States now sets I new mark for our tourist industry to Ilm It. And. with television program: be- ginning It 6.50 I.m. Ind going Itright through the day. that lets I new target for our poor old night-hawk the C.8.C.

This revolution in the motel bul- lness is of course closely tied up with the new development of build- ing insulated and heated motel- which remain open all the year round. Coupled closely with it in the States is I new phenomenon: the Shopping Town. or total shop- ping centre fronted by I mam- moth car park. with quality Itoru of III kinds. opening from noon until 9 p.m. Ilx dIyI I week. some OttIwI stores were recently proo- ecuted for remaining open until I p.m. on Fridays; our stores have to close It the very hour when working Canadians. the biggest slice of our spending population. leave their offices. or plInts.

Saxon Discoveries In Britain

From The BBC Bulletin

An account of one of the most important Saxon discoveries ever made in Britain was given on the BBC by Brian Hope-Taylor. who has been carrying out excavations for the Ministry of Works at the village of Yeavering in Nonnum- bcrland. -

I-England's early ecclesiastical historian. the Venerable Bede, he pointed out. had recorded in the eighth century that I century In- lier King I-idwin of NorthumbriI. greatest of the English kings be- fore Alfred. had had his royIl township It Yeavering, and had there been converted to Christian- ity by Paulinus, I missionary sent from Rome. But it was not until In aerial photograph reveal dark green rectangles in I firld of rip- ening outs in that IreI that the Ictual site was discovered. ALWAYS HAMPERED

Archaeologists. Mr. llope-TIy- lor said. had always been hImper- ed in their efforts to fill in the gaps in the history of the Dark Age that fell on Britain after the collIpse of the Roman Empire in the fifth century by the fact that the Anglo- Suxon warrior-farmers had built
