Eduoationist Arrives 0n Short Visit

131'. Giegrg: Kerby, founder an pres en o .Royal liege, Calgary, Alberta, arrived in Char- lottetown last night for s, brief visit. He wanted to "see where oon- federation was born," the eminent educationist said. Furthermore many of his best friends in the west had come from this Province. which had achieved fame for the educationists and literary men it turned out.

Dr. Ker is enroute to western Canada at _r attending the bien- nial convention of the Canadian Federation of Home and School at Halifax last week. This year the Doctor retired from the of that Federation whic he had headed since its inception ll years ago. He has been made honorary president. He is vice-president of the International Home and school Federation which us organized at the same time as the Canadian Federation. From two member countries, Canada and the United States, the international organiza- tion has grown to include 40 coun- r es.

Today Dr. Kerby will visit local places of interest and call on sev- cral Charlottetown citizens. He plans to leave for Calgary tomor- row morning.

Mother And Three Dhildren Burned To Death

SYDNEY, N.s., July 1B—(OP)-—- Mrs. James Parsons died of burns

l

in a hospital at Glace Bay near here tonight, a few hours after her tlirce children were burned to death in a fire which swept a flsh- . iii-man's cottage on lonely Scatarie l Island. v

With her husband, also seriously ; burned. she was brought in an;

Breton Island's eastern tip, through l a wild electrical storm. Meanwhile fishermen searching the ashes of the ruined dwelling found the bodies of two of the children.

Only three of the six persons in the house at the time fire broke‘ outtodiiy escaped from 1t alive. William, eight, Joseph, 51ml and 1 Susie. two. were trapped in the flaming kitchen.

Twenty minutes after 11-year-old Garfield forced his mother from the house. beating the flames from her clothing. the building had been levelled. The father. who made vain attempts to save his three youngest children, had to Jumpfinio the sea to extinguish his flaming clothing.

The island is only about 25 miles from here. The mother. uncon- sClOlls from shock and the effect oi’ the burns. and the father. so badly burned about the face he was un- able to see. were brought acres l0 miles of openwater to Port Mor- ien. From there an ambulance took them to Glace Bay.

Four children, Ralph, 15; Winni-

TTM. 16: Sarah, 13. and James, 18. were not at home when the trag- edv occurred. Residents of the vil- lage of Eastern Harbor were so grief-stricken their tales of the fire were incoherent. Thev said flames consumed the cottage 1n a few min- l1 9S. The bodies of two children, so bndlv burned they could not be identified. were recovered tonight. A third body could be seen in the smouldering ruins. but the heat prevented anyone from entering.

Origin of the fire was unknown. It was believed the six were in the kitchen when the flames broke out. Though the door was only a few feet away. only three were able to escape through it.
