"What hope is there in such a situation?" asked the speaker. "We must be enthusiastic for our way of life in order f4: meet effectively the fanaticizm of the Commun- ists. We must- send the necessities of living to the Europeans and re- create in them the feeling that there is a purpose in life -— a rea- son for living. Life to them is one huge question mark with little or no faith in mankind. we must re- store their faith and reinstitute the idea that decency will pay off in the end.

Local Girls Prove Good Potato Pickers

There are 80 girl potato pickers from Charlottetown and nrarby vicinity who have no cause for complaint respecting the wages and treatment they are receiving from their employer. The girls are paid $5.00 a day with trwo meals and mid-morning and mid-afternoon lunches.

Mr. HB. Willis, their employer, said yesterday that he had had the girls for the past four weeks and was satisfied 1n every respect with their services. As a further mark of appreciation for the man- ner in which they had worked, Mr. Willis said he had secured an or- chestra and was going to treat his potato-picking girls this evening to a dance exclusively for them at one of the local dance hails.

In the‘ meantime, other large local potato growers are finding it a serious problem to secure a suf- ficient number of pickers to clean up their crops before severe frosts make the digging an impossibility.

One grower has practically all the prisoners in the County jail picking for him. It is understood he made arrangements with the At- torney General for_their services and that some l"! or la men are working for him at a daily wage of $6.50.

Wages for potato picking throughout the Province are no: uniform since they vary according to the degree of emergency. In Western Prince the average wage is $4.00 a clay and board but this price is increased somewhat in certain communities and decreased slightly in others.

The potato pickers brought to the Province from the mainland received $3.50 a day and their board.

Operation 0f Fish ' Drying Plant Delayed ilntii liext Summer

Unforseen delays in securing thu artificial dryers made it impossibl: for Mr. George Wahi and his

' t“ to begin the drying of salt cod and hske at their fish- drying plant near Charlottetown, this season. A Government spokes- man said yesterday, however, that the project has not been abandon- ed and that the plant will definitA- ly be in operation next summer.

The building in which the dry- ing will be carried on was‘ leased by Mr. Wahi last August. from the Provincial Government who had leased it in turn from the Depart- ment of Transport. It was former- ly the storage plant at the local airport and is 200 feet long and 00 feet wide.

The spokesman said that though all difficulties, such as the secur- ing of the artificial dryers, have now been overqpme. it would be impracticable to begin operations at this time of year since the Isl- and's deep-sea fishing is practical- ly over. He said that there is but a comparatively small quantity of pickled cod or hake in the Province and that ii: would not be impossi- ble to import fresh fish from the mainland in sufficient qualities to justify the operating oi the plant at the present time, '

Kinsmen Providing ilallcwe’en Party

Arrangements have been made to ensure that Halloween activities by the younger generation will keep within the limits of reason- ableness, Chief of Police A. Birt- wistle said last night. A dozen or more special constables and patrol cars will be on duty with the regular police force.

Chief Birtwistle stated that a1- though these extra constables would be on duty he did not anticipate any serious trouble. "I hope that those celebrating Hallows‘- en will have a good time but will respect the property of others and not cause any wilful damage. as no vandalism will be tolerated," he said.

The Charlottetown Kinsmen Club will be doing their part in keep- ing the children off the streets and out. of mischief by holding their regular I-Iaiiowebn Party for the kiddies at the Charlottetown Armouries. They will hold their regular "peanut day" during Sat- urday, in which children from the various city schools will take part. with all the proceeds from the sale going to charity. A very attractive program has been arrmged for the children in the evening at the AymQuJ-les, including movies, cos- tume contest in which prizes for the best. and most original costumes will be presented to the winners. a special vsudville show. Vi!“ °5 candy and itruit, and other features.

It. is the wish of the Kinsmen Club that all parents will acquaint their children with this news. and have them an hand to enjoy the fun.
