A Picture Worth Seeing

Many who are not customarily "movie fans" u-{ll be delighted to have an opportunity of see- ing, even more than once, thc great picture fea- ttlrcd at the Prince Edward Theatre next week, viz., “Mrs. bliniver." It is a. reproduction of s story which appeared originally in the columns of the weekly edition of “The Times," London, and we cannot give a better appreciation of it than a quotation from "The Times" itself:

"It seems a long time since Mrs. Miniver, now the heroine of a film at the Empire, graced the Court 111cc of "The Times" with her musings anti on her cultured, comfortable, chzu-nlizlg t ltily life.

Notes of Past And Present

(By Old Timer)

Giancing over the Guardian last 51111111161! l ensue across some South Winsloe Notes of Pest. and Present. This writer began at Hlghfleldnnd continued up the Wlnzloe Road to the Home properties and I will endeavour to continue these notes further.

Beglnnlnz gt the Horne proper:- ies we pass tnrough the Line Rood which connects with Wlnsloo near the school. Here live two promin- ent lprmers and here we ‘see two beautiful homes, both. freshly painted and on op osite sides u! the load. The one the south ls owned by Harold Prowse. formedy trim Union Road. who bought-the property from Edmond Home. now of Charlottetown.

The other farmer. Hammond Rodd, lives on the homestead for- merly owned by his father John

odd. This affords an excellent view as the name “Hi hview Farm" sussests. In this vlc ltv ts the second highest point on the Island: the airport, Charlottetown and parts of the mainland can be seen from here.

As we continue up the road we come to the residence of Harry Slackford one of ou: good falunerls. son 01 William Slackford. now re- tired ctatlonmaster of Bummerside. Hero we see one of the most beauti- ful and well-kept lawns in Winsloe south. This was once James Ho‘.- man‘; property.

Just over the fence from these bulldlxuu we come to the former William Bryenton homestead, on which we now see s. new hours and outer buildings, the work of one of our enterprising dairy funnel-s. Earl Rodd. son of the before ment- ioned Hammond Rodd.

Crossing the road on s lane lead- ing to s. sheltered valley m com-g t0 ‘the 8111111 home of Edward Brven- ton, former property of James Hotnnn.

From the top of Breakheart Hill we have an excellent view of the dis- trict to the north and the brook wendlng down through the valley to Roy Cole's mill-dun.

The first property which our attention is p, cluster of newly erected buildings, and a lar e new house. This splendid proper-v has been built, and Ls owned by our

" well-known cattle dealer and but-

cher. Fred Turner. The property W84 formerly owned by Nathaniel Peardon, well-known local preach- er of his time.

Adjoining it ll that of Nelson Locke, on which also lived his father Jrmes Locke. Mr. Locke has built himself a neat cottaae lust across the road from the property of Earl Diamond, son of the late Thomas Diamond, who had been a very faithful mall-driver and farm- er. The late Mr. Diamond spent approximately 28 years serving his community a; a. mall driver and served it gs well as his sou who carries on after 1cm. The routs
