criterion for Blind To Begin Next Week

"The annual campaign to raise 57,000.00 for the Canadian Nation- ai Institute for the Blind, .wlll be tnupched throughout the province on Oct. 26." stated Col. 1:. s. angers, chairmen of the P. E. 1. Advisory Board in tin C. N. I. 3.

"Most of us know that blind people -want' to be independent." he said. "and like to do as much .5 they can for themselves." The Institute encourages. this and de- mlops special services that will end ll" blind to more and more miopendence all the time.

He toidabout the research de- partment, where appliances and gadgets usually requiring sight are transferred to the touch med- ium. The nee. to threads: that permits the blind housewife to thread her own needles, enables her to sew whenever she plenss, ml --rerely when a sighted person .5 near to thread the needle for ilel”.

The ordinary foot ruler, so handy .2 the cellar, used by most men s doz:. times a week, would be lenled to the blind were it not for t N. I. B. research. Braille mark- zrrs were placed at the inch end tall inch intervals allowing the .-vtdyman to continue his manual .l2'iS under the ..andicap of blind- :.0ss.

”These devices, are simple rnough to tell about," Col. Rogers HIIII, "but they took keen concen- .. .321 to develop and many frus- trating mistakes before they were truly practical."

This type of equipment is e twmderful help to the blind per- son. To know that by using a special gadget he can do a piece of work as well as he ever could :3 an encouragement in itself.

"When we contuibute to C. N. I B. we make this research pos- sible," Col. Rogers said. "Of course, we do a great many other things as well. We send teachers to the blind to teach Braille. We estab- zleh men and women as operators of canteens. We support the pre- vention of blindness programme Nevertheless, the rest -ch on these gadgets for everyday use around th house to my way of thinking, is one of the most important things we can provide to make a blind person's daily living more easy. That is why I urge everyone to be as generous as possble this ,,,,a,..

Island Odds And Ends

...:

Excavation work began recent- ly at Montague preparatory to the erection of the new Federal build- ing. A temporary hait was called a few days ago when interested citizens protested that the building apparently was' to be flush with the sidewalk. It was felt by these observant folk, that the building could very well be sited well back from the street. so that a parking area for cars, and perhaps even a stretch of lawn and some flower beds could be included in the gen- erai plans. By the time this note goes to press the proposed changes may have been ratified and work resumed. Parking room is never wasted in any growing town, and a well-tended lawn and some flow- ers adds an extra something to the best efforts of architects and

The Week at S.D.U.

Well, yes. we knew it had to come, but who would have thought that our days of taking it easy would come to such a sud- den end. You probably did not guess our reason 'for being in such a melancholy mood, so I will add that our trouble stems from a notice which was recently placed on the bulletin board an- nouncing the mid-term exams to be held on Oct. 31st and Nov. 2nd. Although we realize that exams are necessary, or we are led to believe they are, it is an estab- lished fact that no student appre- ciates them. We have often won- dered why this feeling of antip- athy exlsts toward exams. It is certain that we have to work to get along, but there is great can- solatlon in writing a good paper on a subject you thought you knew nothing about. We might add, however, that the reverse is not so consoling.

Last Thursday morning, Oct. 15th, Alton Craig and Jerom Quinn left for Daihousla Univer- sity where they represented St. Dunstan's at the annual M.I.D.L. conference, which was held on Oct. 16th and 17th. The purpose of this annual conference is prim- nriiy to draw up a schedule of de- bates for the year, to tsettle any disputes and to make any addi- tions or amendments to the con- stitution. The M.I..D.L. new con- sists of ten members, each of which has three debates a year. St. Dunstan's this year has one debate away with Daihousle, and two debates at home, one with St. Thomas and the other with King's. Several disputes arising last year were settled, and there were several amendments made to the constitution which are too lengthy to be discussed here. It was the general feeling of the conference that each member unl- versity should benefit a great deal from the discussions which took place at the conference by having the delegates try to infuse some of the recommendations made at the conference into their respective debating societies.

On Oct. 8th, Thomas Kane left for Montreal where he represent- ed St. Dunstan's at two very im- portant conferences, namely: W. U. S. C. and N. F. C. U. S. The first meeting Mr. Kane attended was the eighth annual conference of the World University Service of Canada which took place at Montreal University. Mr. Kane in- formed us that most universities in their reports stressed the prob- lem of trying to interest students in W.U.S.C., and that the most important activity in the differ- ent universities was the sale of India Handicraft. Mr. Kane said the other universities were 'qulck in giving St. Dunstsn's praise for

Baritone Soloist Heard In Fine . , Concert last Night

Charlottetown had a. warns we!- come for a promising young Can- adian artist, James Miliigen, bar- itone, who last evening opened the Prince of Wales College Con- cert series for the year with an enjoyable program of great appeal. Mr. Mllligen. who sprang into prominence when he won the top award in the French network version of "Singing Stars of To- morrow" three years ago has al- ready become widely recognised in Canada's musical field, and is heard yearly with the Toronto Symphony orchestra and Men- delssohn Choir in the "Messiah."

He opened his program with three Handel compositions, "Where'er You Walk," a charming love song, "Silent Worshlp," and "The Lord Worketh Wonders”, a difficult excerpt from "Judas Maocabeus."

Three Italian love songs dating from the 15th and 16th centuries foil-owed. ”Sebben Crudeie" by Caldara, "Denza, Danza, Fsnclulltt Gentile" by Durante, and the mov- ing and gentle ”Tu Lo Sal" by Toreill.

The first half of the program was concluded with the dramatic meditative Credo from the second act of Verdi's "Othello." and the enthusistic applause of his audi- ence brought Mr. Miiligan back for an encore, a pleasantly whimsical little song entitled "The Little Irish Girl."

A collection of three French love songs by Duperc followed the in- termission-”Extance," softly rem- inlscent, the more dramatic "Le Manlor de Rosamond." and "Chen- son Trlste," a. wistful and endear- ing compositlon. each of which was given a delightful interpretat- ion.

Three songs painting an appeal- ing picture of the deiiilghts of rural life, "Linden Lee,'' as arrang- ed by Vaughan Williams, and his "Silent Noon" and "The Vagabond" were followed by a. group of cap- tivating songs of e seaferer by the contemporary English composer Michael I-Iead-"Limehouset Reach" "Back to I-lilo" end "Sweethearts and Wives"-completing the sched- uled program.

Mr. Milligen responded to de- manding applause with a rendition of "Old Man River" which brought out all the pathos in this popular song from "Porgl and Bess," a lively interpretation . of Moussorg- sky's humorous ”song of the Flea," and Clarke's moving song of thank- fuineas, "The Blind Plowman." The richness and quality of his voice, his warm sincerity obvious in every number and his easy grace made Mr. Milligen's pres- entation most enjoyable, and the
