Excellent weather was the plea. sing main course served to the lob- ster fishermen on Friday, for the rumiirzg of the lines. No serious accidents occurred to mrir the opening of what all hope, fisher- men and non-fishermen, will be a. banner season not only from the standpoint of large catches but of good ‘prices as well. some of the boats beat the opening gun and had their cooling blankets on before the big boss said "Go."

Steps are being taken to cur-t,,».l1 the speedstera as they pass to by the local school. There is a terrific amount of traf- fic on this the Harbour Road, {mm the Openinz of the lobs- tcr season and throughout the

summer and early fall. The school

is very close to the highway and a slight curve in the road shuts out the school until you are al- most on top of it. There are no Sign! 1111 Warning motorists of the school so that all in all it is a very dangerous set-up. However signs will be placed in the near future and it is hoped that 511 passing motorists will co-operate. when the signs are up. there will be no further excuse for saying "we didn't know the school was there." This speeding must be stopped. It will be too late to take action after some young life has been unneccssarily forfeited.

"Noth- mg to it" said the skipper, "just jump say 1000, 2000, 3000, then pull the cord." To those used to parachuting it was Just another event but to Urban, as he said himself, it brought forth the most uncanny thoughts. Urban is a mighty good living boy, there are few better, but in this critical and desperate interval it was surpris- ing the number of molehills that loomed as mountains. There were the numerous times he raided Kitty Jones‘ orchard and pinched there- from those delicious blood-streaked Wealthies that were her pride and Joy. The ferocious ram he once helped look in the school porch and then laughed with fiendish glee as the ram butted the sweet little school teacher as she non- ehalantly went to open the school on April fool‘: morning.
