To Place Order for fifty German Farm Workers Here

The Dominion-.Provlnc.ial Farm Labor Committeemeninet today in Offices of the Provincial! Department of Ag-ricultvure. Included among those present were Deputy Minist- er Shaw and Mr. S. C. Wright of the local Agricultural office; Mr. David Bay, from the Regional Un- employment Insurance office Mono- ton; Mr. Earl cannon, the Nation- al Employvment, Sumimeiaicie; and Mr. J, B. Murley and Mr. S. C. MaoLeod of the National Employ- ment Charlottetown.

Last year's farm labor program. during which sixty Gemtan farm laiborers were brought to the Prov- ince, as well as a number of Dutch workers was reviewed. some of the comimlttee expressed disappoint- ment with the German immigrants because many of them remained in the Province a very short time. some of them, only a month. How- ever, the records showed that up- wards of fifty percent of those who arrived last spring stayed on Is- iand farms until the Autumn, and that practically all of them were good and skillful workers.

All of the newcomers from Ger- many have their transportation costs advanced to them, under a financial plan sponsored Jointly by the Dominion Departiment. of Lab- or. and the Provincial Government. The money is recovered in monthly installments after the immigrants start working in this country.

Mr. Hay who came c-yer fi-oni Moncion expressly to attend the meeting, and whose duties keep him in close touch with the Cariadiaii Department of Citizenship and Immigration, told the committee that form laborers were already being rocruiteci in West Geimaiiy, and that many of these men would be avtiilziiile Ill the spring. Other European countries did not permit organized recruiting but permitted any one to emigrate who had the inclination. This emigration was checked to a large degree by reg- ulations limiting the amount of money which emigrants were al- iowed to take out of their respect, we countries.

Before the session wound up it was agreed that Prince Edward is- land would place an order for fifty German workers for this l?i'll', which could be redurrd if the de- mands feil short of this figure.

Modern Art Work Exhhited

An interesting exhibition. en- tirely of modern paintings, open- ed this week at the Art Center, Market Building. They are the works of two promising young Canadians, Ghitta Caiserman and Alfred Pinsky.

This exhibition has been brought to Charlottetown by the Maritime Art Association, for showing here until the end of the month, said Miss Frances John- ston, director of the center.

Most of the 21 paintings on dis- play are portrayals of people by Miss Caiserman. From this exhibi- tion it would appear that she is more interested in painting hum- ans than Mr. Plnsky who prefers landscapes. She paints them with broad, bold strokes, carrying a fine color rhythm throughout.

One interesting work shows a little girl lost in her mother's clothes, which she has dressed herself in. One lone shoe dangles

in her hand; a big, red flower adorns the big but and subtle undertones of red are discovered

in the droopy. sad grey dress. The feeling here is one of sad childish longing mingled with ex- cited triumph.

Other paintings of Miss Caiseb man include a woman washing a friend's honey-orange hair, a fam- ily group in a modern setting, a worker with lunch-box and banjo, and children dressed for a mas- querade.

The influence of Mexican art and Latin-typo people appear in some of these. It is not surpris- ing. then to find that Miss Cruiser- man recently won two scholar- ships, one of which took her to Mexico to study. Another recent honor was the hanging of one of her paintings in the National

lery.

Mr. Plnsky showed fewer works, all of which were landscapes and still life. His paintings are done in smaller. more detailed strokes. His colors, especially of buildings 01' Parts of them. are mostly pleasant warm tones.

The exhibition, showing various styles and subjects, makes an in- teresting display.

Natives of Montreal H

Both artists (who in private life, are husband and wife)-are natives of Montreal where after the war, they set up the Mont- real Artlsts' School, known for the more "earnest-type" of stu. dent. Previous to that, they stud. led at the Nova Scotia College of Art. In both Montreal and Hall- fax, Vic Ruritz, Guardian cartoon- ist and president of the Charlotte- town Art society. was a nude"; associate.

Mr. and Mrs. Pinsky were back!

In the Maritimes last summer, to Fredericton, where they taught painting at tbeyllniversity of New Briinsvi-ick. The exhibition is open 1.30 in S p. m. Monday vex:-apt next week). Tuesday, Wednesday: 3.4.1. 5 p.m. Thursday. and all day Sat- urday. Future exhibition: will be a set of Danish paintins and also adi-no work of Goodi-idge Roberta.

From a physical standpoint, lob- otomy is not considered a serious operation and the fatality rate is next to nil. The patient exper- icnces little discomfort and is usu- ally able to leave the hospital 24 hours afterwards.

"Lobotomy is not to be consid-

A more encouraging result can be expected from those of higher former men- tality than patients who previous- ly possessed a low l.Q." Following the operation patients are given constant and close sup- ervision with every effort being made to bring about rehabilita- tion. While it is not possible to predict the results of the opera- tions last week, those upon whom the operation was performed lut June have shown improvement. one of these has been released to his home and a woman patient is a regular participant in the occu- pational tiierapy classes which she was quite unable to attend pre-
