Fair Week In liotrospoct

As Premier Jones admitted on Mondav night, this week's Provincial Fair mlghl perhaps be bettered by the Canadian Na- tional at Toronto. but it is doubtful if one could find a suitable comparison elsewhere The Calgary Stampede may be all very well, but who among our legion of harness racing fans would exchange the excitement of a close finish down the homestretch for all the broncho busting that the West can offer? The Old Home Week racing in Charlottetown has been steadily gaining in popularity until today (to again quote the Premier) it is not a question of attracting bigger crowds here but of transpollmf. them to and from the Province. That PP0b' lem will have to be solved with better roads. ferries and rail connections. and on its solution also will depend our future de- velopment agriculturallj.', industrially and otherwise.

The big Fair attracted some of the finest livestock entries in Canada, partic- ularly in the dairy cattle and swine classes. and set new standards this year which will prove of great future value to the Prov- ince. It was pleasing to note the man) veteran Island showmen who have been scoring year after year and are still able to give pointers to the younger generation in quality breeding, but who nevertheless found this year's competition the keenest in their experience. The work they are doing is profitable not only to themselves in the prize money and publicity. received, but to every breeder in the Province.

A matter of gratification also was the increase in the handicraft and other ex- hibits under the auspices of the Women's institutes, who cannot be too highly com- mended for reviving this important feature of the Exhibition, and who in time will

Argentina is facing critical shoitages of meat just now, an achievement of econ- omics even more impressive than our own butter shortage.

Country youngsters now have nothing to detract them from school except shoot- ing, fishing, ball games. harvesting, potato picking and. of course, their usual chores. ,

One complication of having as success- ful an Exhibition as this week's is that customers for Island livestock will cer- tainly not be satisfied with anything but the best.

The Royal Air Force is beginning trials this summer with a new process for air- craft storage which is based on the use of a plastic "cocoon" of airtight, weather- tight, temperature-tight skin. It is claim- ed that planes wrapped up in this skin can be stored in the,open for periods ranging up to a number of yeais.

There is something disturbing about the report that the Historic Sites and Monu- ments Board of Canada is sponsoring a study to correct inaccuracies in the story of the Riel rebellion of 1885. Coming so

bring it to equal and even surpass anything previously shown in this con- nection.

The Exhibition management and offic- 'iais showed themselves highly competent in their duties, many favorable comments being heard on the smooth working of the various track and show-ring events. Thi- spick-and-span appearance of the grounds. the fine modern stables. cattle barns and other plant equipment, also came in for commendation. We might add to this a tribute to the police and traffic officers whose courtesy and efficiency were noted apprcciativcly by many visitors.

It has been a big week for everybody, and all who helped to make it a success from Manager Kennedy and his co-direct- ors rlown. have reason to take a bow.

"ills Moustache Tickled"

Liberal lldleadquarters in Ottawa has

ister St. Laurent's Gallic courtesy. caught by the cameraman in the act of bestowin-:, a generous kiss upon the charming count- enancc of a young lady in Saskatchewan. Time was when kissing squalling infants was part. of a politicianis chore. Today judging by what. the camera portrays. pub- lic life is becoming mucii less rugged. The incident recalls the story of It young lad, taken around to an actress" dressing room following the performance After some general conversation about the play. the small boy raised a point which obviously must have been bothering him a lot". ln a rather aggressive tone he asked. "do you really kiss that man in the play?" To which the astonished actress replied. "Well, yes. as a matter of fact I don Whereupon a look of revulsion, tinged with unbelief, spread over the youngsters count- enance. "Doesn't he mind?" the youthful visitor exclaimed. i Apparently the recipient of Prime Mir.- ister St. Laurent's bussing didnlt mind. either. Her only comment was. "His moustache tickled!" All of which serves only to show that the grim business of pol- ltics has its gay and lighthearted mn- ments. The pity of it. is there were not more such incidents. Even the declining fortunes of the CCF party might be re- vived could Mr. Coldwell be induced to kiss a few of his constituents from time to time.

One of the most colourful of Scottish Festival of Britain celebrations will be the Gathering of the Clans which is taking place in Edinburgh from August 16th to 19th. The highlight of this gathering, which includes a Grand Ceilidh. a Highland ball and a Highland Gathering, will be the march of the massed pipe bands to the l-lighland Gathering at Murrayfield on August 18th. At Murrayfield the chiefs or their representatives of 23 clans will each have a tent flying the chief's per- sonal standard at which the clansmen can meet with their chief. Mr. Gilbert Car- michael, Royal Chief of the Order of Scot- tish Clans of Canada and the U. S. A. and 200 Canadian and American Scots are fly- ins: from New York for the Gathering.
