1;. has been noted that the river during the past number of years has had a severe silt fill-in. to the extent that it was almost impos- sible for any heavy draught ship to reach Montacu , with the result that many contracts had to be can- celled. and a great deal of money lost to this locality. Without doilit with the dredging of the river. much of this diverted traffic will once again move out or the Mon- Lgguo port. However. good roads are a necessity to such increased siiipvlns. and it is hoped. that the roads in Kings County will receive ihs attention which is their due, gm. it seems t that the ri-ans-Canada 1-lllI'hlwe.y is givisuus by-pass to Wood Islands. it-h, Kings County being left out in this undertaking. it would seesni only fair that it should get an in- .-.-eased amount of paved roads. for i also must pay for the con- itruction of the Trans-Canada i-iighway of which it. will have no senelit. and perhoips detrinont. since tourists may follow tho road directly to Wood Islands without taming to Kincs County-

instigation of a safety drive has met with the enthusiastic approval of all government and civic au- thorities, with the hope that it will promote safer and easier auto- mobile driving in the future.

A special film, "Gentlemen Jekyll and Driver Hyde". produced by the National Film Board. will be shown at the Prince Edward and Capitol Theatres during the week. This feaiurette illustrates in a humorous vein how dirivers break all the known rules of safe- ly. It shows how Driver Jekyll breaks every traffic rule so that Gentleman Hyde gets home two minutes earlier.

The con- test letter should tell in 50 words or less the writer's opinion of "highway and traffic driving" con- ditions in Prince Edward Island and give suggestions for improve- ment.

The report or the President, Mrs. H. J. A. Brown follows:

I beg to submit the following re- port of the activities of the Jun- ior Ladies' Aid of the Prince Ed- ward Island Hospital for the year 1949-1960:

During the year, eight regular monthly meetings were held at the Cundall Home, and the average at- tendance of forty (40) was most encouraging. The addition of sev- eral new members in our gm shows an ever increasing interest simom our younger women in Hos- pital Aid work.

At the September meeting Mrs Clifford MacDonald read a very interesting and instructive report of the Mnrtlime Hospital Aids As- sociation convention which she and Mrs. Don Ross attended in Halifax in June.

During the last week of Septem- ber s. rummage sale, under the convenoi-ship of Mrs. Earl Taylor. was held in the Market Building an: a conslde able sum was real- ize

In Octdber a constitution and by-lazws for the Jun-ior.lIa.dies' Aid of the Prince Edward Island lies- pital were adopted. and copies of same were distributed to all the members.

Cally trimmed Christmas trees in the wards and corridors again brightened the npcarance of the Hospital during the holiday season, and brought a little of the Christ- mas spirit to patients and staff. This was done a few days before Christmas by a. committee under the capable ccnveriorshlp of Mrs. Roebrt Large.

Mobile Canteen

our mobile canteen. carrying magashiee. cigarettes, candy. otc.. has been in operation for sixteen months and has proven a very pop- ular servlce to both the patients and the staff. as well as a success financially. Mrs. Haslam and her committee, Mrs. Likely and Mrs. Barbour. deserve high praise for the very efficient manner in which this canteen is operated.

The fourth annual Parade of Spring Fashions, held at the Char- lottetown Hotel in Marcli,' under the excellent ......venorIhlp of Mrs. Alan Macmillan, once more was our big project of the year. We ap- preclate the wonderful cooperat- ign of every member of the Aid.

instead of in May. as in former years. Letters have been sent to the various Church Guilds and Women's Institutes interested, ad- vising thorn of this change in date. We hope that in the .Fall this worthy project will receive the same interested and generous sup- port which it has received in the past.

During the year. members of the Aid ushered at the Nurses' gradu- ation, provided refreshments for the nurses' dances. assisted in the Red Cross collection, and helped the Senior Aid in selling tickets for their annual sponsored picture show at the Prince Edward, and in selling tags on Easter Saturday. We again awarded a prize for Gen- eral Proficiency at the Nurses' Graduation.

Gifts To Hospital

In the year 1949-50, we purchas- ed for the Hospital an electrically controlled Cosmo Incubator Bas- sinett. a combination instnsnant cabinet and work-table for the re- covery room. a. small wheel chair, and a collapsible wheel ch.al.r.

From the proceeds of this year's Fashion Show. we have bought an electric Singer sewing machine for the Oundall Home; and we have ordered an incubator basslnett for the nursery. an oxygen adminis- trator and rcsuscltator for the re- covery room, and a wheel chair.

At this time may I exipress our sincere appreciation to the mem- bers of the Senior Aid who have been most interested and sym- pathetic in all our undertakings.

In closing, I wish to thank our Vice-President, Mrs. Robert Large. for her willing oo-operation at all times; our secretaries, Mrs. Don Ross and Mrs. Walter Pickard. who so ably have recorded the minutes and looked after the cor- respondence; our Treasurer, Mfrs. Torn DeBlois. who has so efficient- ly kept the Aid's' finances in order; and all the members. whose enthus- iasm and close co-operation have made the office of President a pleasant one.

we have had a measure of success during the past year, but let us resolve to work in unity to- wards greater achievements in the year to come. Surely our excellent I-lospitai and its staff are deserving of our best.

Fashion Show

An excellent report was read by Mrs. A. G. McMillan, Fashion Show conve-nor, on the result of the "Parade of spring Fashions." The Junior Aid cleared 51,128.79 to mark the most successful show in its four year-old history.
