. Expert Maintenance Men

Thanks to the outstanding work done by crew-men of the Govern- ment highway maintonance ser- vice. the P. E. 1. Island Telephone Company and the Maritime Elec- tric Company, the havoc attend- -ing the worst November snow- storm in years. has been overcome and the various services almost fully restored.

The storm. which began shortly before noon on Sunday was ac- companied by winds which at times reached a velocity of 55 miles-pen hour, tied up hundreds of motorists on the highways and brought traffic to a stand-still throughout the whole Province.

During the late evening and throughout the night. maintenance men in all the services remained on the job, which was well in hand by noon yesterday and except for the replacing of a number of tele- phone poles on the Souris line. all services are practically normal.

Cleared By

The Souria section poles will be replaced today, along with some rural branch lines.

All mainland circuits were re- atored last evening.

Six crews of the Maritime Elec- tric Maintenance department were still on the Job late last evening in the rural areas. Two of the crews were working on the main line through New GlasE0W 3-0 Rustico and Cavendish with good , , t of cleaning up that area by last midnight.

The other crews were effecting repairs on sub-circuitshfn various parts of the Island. Their work is also expected to be completed be- fore this morning.

By noon yesterday the Lflllre bus service of the Province was reported restored and traffic rc- sumed practically on schedulc al- though progress was retarded in some areas.

Motorists. Sr

Stories of improvisation and gal- lantry have come out of. the re- cent unexpected storm of Sunday which brought traffic to a stand- still and disrupted communications throughout the Province. All along the mad automobiles could be seen hanging precariously to the edge of deep fills and while a number would pass by, there were those who would leave the warmth and comfort of their own vehicle to lend a helping hand.

Perhaps the largest concentrat- ion of stalled vehicles was at Bonshaw where the steep hill lead- ing from the village proved to be a nemesis to cars not equipped with winter traction. From about three o'clock Sunday afternoon vehicles travelling towards Char- lottetown began to accumulate and many motorists. after several un- successful attempt: at climbing the hill, decided to seek shelter for the night with residents of the village.
