That was the wild- :-.I water Peter Rabbit ever had lull. Not only was he so cold that it seemed to him he couldn't kirk :u order to swim but he was too

. hudly frightened to think. when he

tried to climb out on the ice. he kept sliding back. Jerry Mllsl(l'(lI vauie swimming out irom under the ice and Peter was more ingui- ened than ever. glie turned '.lir-u and swam to the other side of the little open place. There the ice was thin and broke when he tried to climb out on it. That was a good

The first thing he did was to .l.lkC himself. You should have xt'."il the water fly in every direct- uni when Peter shook himself. He llilll lie-on cold in the wzitt-r. lie twi thought he was as cold .'lS it -in possible to be. but now he u.-s colder still. Rough Brother X-vrlh Wind was blowing. and Peter was so wet that Rough Broth- .-r North Wind's cold breath chili- ml him through and through.

Peter wears a fur cost. but it I -v 1. like Jerry llluskrat's fur coat. .lPlTy has a sort of double coat. Next to his skin is thick. soft. warm fur, Over this is a waterproof coat of long hairs. So whether he is in the water or out in the cold air, vrry is always warm.

Peter thought he was the un- luckiest Rabbit in all the Great, World. it was bad enough to have such a wetting without having to run for his life. What Peter didn't know was that this. new danger really was a blessing. By the timel he reached the dear Old Briar- patch. just in the nick of time, he was dry and warm and no longer in danger of catching cold.

Coastal Shipping. Closes Hearings

OTIAWA (CPL-The royal com- mission on coastalshlpping. clos- ing I long inquiry, heard different views Wednesday on the issue of excluding British ships from trade h t Canadian ports.

Shipowners and shipbuilders de-

ernment. There uas no indication as to when this might be com- pleted.

PBOPOSE MIDDLE COURSE

For operators of Canadian-o ned deepsen ships. the Canadian Ship- owners Association proposed a middle course between extremes of opinion ranging from free Brit- ish access to the coastal trade to outright exclusion of all but Cann- dlnn - built and Canadian - owned ships. '

General manager W.J. Fisher of the association suggested that on Inland waters-the Great Lakes and St. Lawrence river-the Ill- Canndian coastal trade be limited to ships-owned in Canada but reg- istered anywhere in the Common- wealth.

But the big shipbuilding firm of Murine industries Ltd. of Sorel, Que.. called for restricting the trade to f' "' ')illll. F 4' owned ships as a means of helping this country's shippinr and ship- building. Mr. Fisher said that exclusion of British shipping would give Cana- dian vessels a monopoly which could well price itself out of the market. Outright exclusion of Brit- iiahfhlps would be ”sclf-deleat- ng.
