With the assistance of neigh- bours nearly all furniture on the ground floor. which included a piano, chesterfield and television set. was removed. About two hund- red bags of the potato crop stored in the basement was also saved. All bedroom furniture and prac- tically all the family's clothing. was lost.

Origin of the fire is not known as the ” y is located in the far end of the house from where the fire broke out. One of the girls reported hearing a snapping noise

thought the wiring may have been responsible.

The Alberton fire dept was call- ed and attempted to bring the flames under control by spraying into the attic but their 500-gallon tank was used up without success. The 0'Leary Brigade also attend- ed but the blaze had gained too much headway.

Members of the Alberton Red Cross Disaster Services met in the afternoon to plan assistance for the family.

Heavy Sea, Ice, Snow Hamper Lobster Fishermen In Prince

A strong sea. a blinding snow- storm and a siiortage of bait corn- bincd to deter lobster fishermen from running their lines as the sea- son got underway yesterday on the north side oof Prince County.

Drift ice near the shore in some areas and a fairly strong sea caused by high north east winds made it unsafe to put out with boats made top-heavy by traps and other gear and kept the lob- ster fishermen. for .the most part. on the shore.

An acute shortage of herring for bait is another disturbing fac- tor this spring and although a few barrels are due to arrive from New Brunswick the shipment will only be a drop in the bucket in

comparison to their needs. IN WEST PRINCE

Lobster fishing boats in West Prince County remained tied up to the wharves yesterday when an un- favorable north east wind ac- companied by rain and snow pre- vented fishermen from running out their lines in preparation for the spring season.

Last evening a large 45-foot boat owned by Phillip Kinch left Alber- ton iiarbour with a small load of 150 traps. This is believed to have been the only to put out traps yesterday

With improved weather forecast for today fishermen are planning to begin the task of transporting their gear to the fishing grounds.

WEATHER INTERFERES

The persistent inclemency of the weather last evening prevented many of the contestants from ar- rivlng at the various centres at which the music festival compet- itions were held. thus causing a number of ellations and re- a:'le.l(tiistment in the programs sched- u .

The diversity of the program pre- sented at P.W.C. was noted by the adjudicator. Mr. Smale. who re- marked that a program that mov- ed from "Carmen" to sacred mus. ic called for considerable readjust- ment in mood on the part of the audience. Speaking to the compet- itors ln Class 66. Soprano Solo. which was moved ahead to this session. the adjudicator emphasiz- ed that the singing of the test- piece. "Spring Sorrow" by ire- lN1d- required "very careful phras- ing. tonal control. and proper in. llfiirctation of the mood of the Poem." He stated that each of the coniestatns had sung very well.

Top placlngs in this class were as follows: 1. Joyce Maccallum, Charlottetown, 84; 2. Barbara G. Rogers. Charlottetown. 83; 3. Pat- tlcia Leightizer. Charlottetown. 82-

Barbara Rogers was awarded 84 marks for Oratorio. Solo. Class 80. "Hear Ye. Israel". in which she was the only contestant. Mr. Smele asserted that this soloists' voice exhibited "the nearest thing to the proper quality required" for this type of singing. stressing part- lcularly, "the excellent orator- lo tone" that she had maintained throughout her performance,

Winners in the remaining Classes completed at P.W.C. last night were:

Class 04. Operatic Solo. female Voice. own selection- 1. Maids R08ei-son. Charlottetown. 84: 2. giyce Maccallum. Charlottetown.

In his remarks at the conclusion of Tuesday's Music Festival num- bers at Civic Stadium in Summer-

had high praise for Island vocal- ists. fie assured his audience that it was not only on the Island that he had voiced this preise- He had spoken of the fine. natural singing on Prince Edward Island at the Canadian Music Council where there were many important musi- cians. and also at the Music Fes- tival at Atlantic City. Dr. Bell said. however. that there was much to be done in the realm of instrumental music here. He un-

petcnt teachers of this type of mu- sic was scarce.

Mr. Geen also complimented the Island Music Festival leaders for the progress they were making. He deplored the fact that there were no sight-reading classes, as they were of lnestimable value in the study of piano. He was glad to see quick-study classes. Mr. Geen said he was pleased to ad- judlcate two entries in organ class- es in Summerside. and considered that there should be more entries for this. an important phase of music often neglected.

During his adjudication Dr. Bell complimented particularly the Kensington United Church C.G.l. T. and Explorers Group for their singing of a Polish folk song. and a round entitled "The Hunt". He liked very much the delicacy and the control exercised in singing the round. and gave the group a mark of 8'1-
