CALL EARLY
Thefirst six months of this year has shown a terrific in-
.crease in the number of cows
bred artificially. Each of the thirteen. Inseminators are very busy this time of year. The ef- ficiency of the service which they can extend to you as a cattle owner has some relationship to the co-operation which you ex- tend to him as an Inseminator. 'To receive service during any ,one day have your calls in before ten in the morning. ‘ Cattle to be bred should be kept in the stable during the greater part of the day. This is one way to assure yourself of better results. Make sure if the cow is a pure bred that the re- gistration papers are available for the Inseminator in the stable.

From the number who turned out for the first meeting it would appear that this type of religious service has caught the fancy of the Charlottetown public as well as'a number from the country and visiting tourists. Starting promptly at 12.05 pm. and ending at 12.30,it enables people to use this portion of their lunch hour for a quiet moment of relaxation and inspiration.

Back To Work Is
Order From Court
VICTORIA, B. C., —— (CP) — The provincial government has obtained a court injunction order- ing striking officers and engine- ers back to work on Black Ball Ferries.
Attorney-General Robert Bon- ner said the injunction was is- sued by Mr. Justice A. D. Mc- Farlane in BC. Supreme Court. . It was understood that the un- ions can’t appeal the injunction until July 29.
This would mean that if union members didn’t return to work immediately they would be held in contempt of court.
Members of the two unions in- volved struck late last week, ty- ing up water service between the island and the B.C. mainland.
Officials of the Marine Engine- ers Union and the Marchant Ser- vice Guild caled their members out, claiming nothing was being accomplished in an Ottawa bid to end the Seafarers’ Internation- al Union strike which has tied CPR coastal ships since May When the strike started against Black Ball, the line was opera- ted by the B. C. government un- der the Civil Defence Act.
Thes line was taken over be- cause the government felt it was a disaster" for Vancouver Is- land to be without adequate ferry facilities. .
At present the island is being served only by Washington State ferries.
The engineers and officers of the Black Ball line are seeking a 19-per-cent wage boost, the SIU wants 25 per cent. Black'Ball is offering eight per cent.

10 years astronomers. atop mile- shigh Palomar Mountain have been looking into space farther than 'man has ever seen before. Their window on the universe is the Zoo-inch Hale telescope, which went into the service of science here a decade ago and has amply fulfilled its glowing press notices. The crowning achievement of Palomar astronomers using the giant-telescope was the discovery six years ago that the yardstick then employed for measuring outer space was cockeyedu
TWICE AS FAR AWAY
Dr. Walter Baade, who retired from the Palomar staff only last month, rocked the scientific world in 1952 by proving with the Hale instrument that the Andro- meda Galaxy was twice as far away as measurements with smaller telescopes had indicated. The distance from earth to Andromeda is the measure as- tronomers use to calculate- the distance of all more remote stars. Recalibrating the yard- stick so drastically meant that muoh of the universe was twice ‘as far away, stars were twice as large, and the universe was twice as old as originally believed. ,What is this tool, so sharp-eyed it can revolutionize man’s thought about the universe inwhich he lives?

distant prey as the earth spins
along in its orbit around the sun.
The mirror was cast in 1934 and after two years of cooling was sent by rail to California Institute of Technology in Pasa- dena, Calif. There optical experts spent 11 years grinding the g‘::s disk to a concave shape and pol- ishing it smooth. In 1947 it was trucked to the observatory here and given a reflective coating. Installed in the telescope, it be- gan its career as a window to the stars early in 1948.
