CHARLOTTETOWN, MONDAY, NOV. 1. 1948 Red Shield Appeal The Salvation Army's current appeal for funds is a reminder that this great organization has a vast and necessary network of peacetime services to maintain. lt is a reminder that though the Salvation Army is always in the front line of service during a national emergency, it pur- sues its way just as effectively, if with less re- cognition, in meeting the emergencies of indi- vidual lives. Combatting human problems has led the Army to open men's hostels, general and maternity hospitals, a world-wide missing persons’ bureau, children's homes, homes for the aged and for unmarried mothers, as well as to carry on such important services as its prison and police court work and immigration aid. All these parallel the Army's well-discharged re- sponsibility for taking the message of the Gospel to the unchurched and the indifferent. The symbol of the Army's endeavour is the Red Shield, and it is this symbol which is as- sociated with the pravincial fund-raising cam- paign now under way, which has for its objective the modest sum of $9,500. The Charlottetown general canvass opens on Monday, and it is hoped the canvassing will be completed in one day. it is scarcely necessary to say that locaily the Salvation Army has done and is doing mag- nificent work, and that it stands high in the ad- miration and esteem of all sections of our peo- ple. Our citizens now have an opportunity of showing their appreciation in a practical way, and it is hoped and expected that the response to this appeal, both from our urban and rural communities, will be prompt and generous. Mr. Dewey's Campaign The opinion seems to be pretty general that Mr. Dewey's victory is "in the bag" in tomorrow's Presidential elections in the United States. But though the Republican control of the Presidency and the House of Representatives is generally conceded, there is grave doubt about the Senate because, in the main, the current Senate ‘vacan- cies fall in territory where the Democrats are strong. Commentators note that Mr. Truman's last-minute campaign was designed more to win the Senate than the presidency, and the same is true of Mr. Dewey's untiring labors even when he seemed sure of personal victory. The result of the election could be a Re- publican President, a Republican House and a Democratic Senate-the familiar deadlock cwhich has bedevilled United States politics for genera- tions and which achieved among other things, the rejection of the League of Nations. This, it is said, Mr. Dewey wishes to avoid at all costs — even at the cost of supporting isolationist Republican senators who would vote against his major foreign policies. These con- flicts within the party can be dealt with later. Mr. Dewey's international policies would secure enough Democratic votes in the Senate to make them safe. His problem is to secure formal Re- publican domination of the Congress so that Republicans can organize it under their lead- ership and control domestic policy. Thus, for example, Senator Vandenberg could remain as chairman of the all-powerful foreign relations committee of the Senate only if the Republicans were in a majority. lf the Democrats held a majority, even of one member, they would recapture all the committee chair- manships WlilLli they last in the election of i946. It is in the committees of the Congress, that ro:il legislative power is concentrated. Con- trolled by the opposition, the committees would be in a position to frustrate the new President's dome:tic policies as they have done in the case of Mr. Truman. Since the Republicans have a majority of only four in the Senate now, and some of their candidates in the present election are obviously limping, it is no wonder that Mr. Dewey is worried. Post Mortem Analyzing the results of the Federal bv-el- actions in Algoma East and Rosthern, the Syd- ney Post-Rccord reaches the conclusion that their most significant feature was the decline of C.C.F. support in the latter constituency. The return of the Liberal candidate; Hon. L. B. Pearson, in Algoma East, was generally conceded, as the Progressive Conservatives, who provided the chief opposition in the i945 general election, did not contest the by-election. But in Rosthern, where the Conservatives also stood aside, the C.C.F. candidate was expected to make o good run, in a Socialist-governed Province, In point of fact, while the C.C.F. gained ground in Algoma East, as compared with the i945 election, it lost heavily in Rosthern on the same basis of com- parison. ln both seats, the Liberals gained clear majorities, which they did not obtain in- Algoma in i945, which may be attributed to lack of Progressive Conservative opposition, and to the decline of C. C. F. strength. Juvenile llplirlnglng A family doctor having been asked to give his view on iuvonile up-bringing writes: "My own view is that parents should realize, first o'f,oll, fir. danger of becoming estranged from their childnl; of placing more faith in experts than in themselves, of permitting our society to reach 4| point when children and adults become set ‘ against each other. There's a simple and obvious 'y|y for, you're do something about it yourself. .1" don't nold my advice nor tho decisions of realm»LgrdhBeaverbrook, who arrived in Vancou- n own home. Your neighbors have children who ploy with them. So you have your own children's club right there. Why not listen to it before you read the next pronouncement by an expert? When your children have problems some people blame you. Some peopleblame thechild. Some people blame society. But it is all connected. Society of- fects the child through the family and, believe it or not, the child — through the family —affects society. The family is the cornerstone of all that happens. I have found that children know that better than anybody. lt is your job to give your child, through you and your family, the right kind of understanding, active companionship and a rightful place in society. L? EDITORIAL NOTES — Hallowinas. All Saints Day. a w a w Yesterday was almost unique in church his- tory in Charlottetown, there being special ser- vice in almost all the Churches—which were different from the customary Halloween cele- brations, and much more impressive_. o- w w w The big crops here and in the United States have been almost universally regarded as a strongly deflationary factor. A New York opin- ion, however, is just the opposite. The reason- ing is that with lower food costs more money is available for other consumer goods still in short supply causing higher prices. Q The trustees of the Nobel prize for medl- cine recognized that the real struggle of man is against the forces of nature by making their award to the discoverer of DDT. lt is probable, however, that a Pied Piper who could rid the world of rats would have had no difficulty in preceding even the insect exterminator. k i: i‘ i ¥ v- rr~ Dorothy Thompson, who has as clear an understanding of world events as anyone, has noted that Moscow is less susceptible to the ut- terances of foreign governments than to reflcc- tions of public opinion abroad. ln other words the views expressed by "the man in the street" today have a direct effect on Russian policy. Her advice to all and sundry is, "to cheer up slaves and horrify the despots." a a ‘Ir n Naval war is not what it used to be. For- merly seamen were miserably paid but had al- ways before them the glittering prospect of wealth from prizes or salvage. Nothing has been heard of prize money as yet but the crew of the "Mayflower" which salvaged the 5,000 ton tanker, "lmperial Transport" have received a total of $805.50. None of them will be able to retire on their share of that. sk ‘k i! fi Bank clerks have their wits about them these days, even at the expense of Peers of the ver recently had a little banking trouble.

"Where's the cheque?" asked the accountant suspiciously, "I'm just going to write it." "Don't bother," said the accountant who wasn't going to be fooled by a stranger. Just then the manager stepped out of his private office. "Why, Lord Beaverbrook. How are you?" Antonio Canova, Italian sculptor, born this date i757. He revived the art of classic sculpture. The greatest work of his novitiate was Daedalus and Icarus. In i780 he went to Rome, where he applied himself to the antique, and produced Theseus vanquishing the Minofau , Psyche and the Butterfly, Perseus with the Head of Medusa. He modelled a statue of Napoleon in i815, the outcome of which was the restoration of the Italian treasures previously removed by him to Paris, and for which Canova was created Mar- quess of lschia. After i819 he executed some of his greatest works._ The group of Hercules and Lichas ranks as the most sublime achieve- ments; Hebe of which he made three replicas, his most graceful work; and the monument to thc Archduchess Maria Christina, his finest. The Louvre in Paris has his celebrated Cupid and Psyche. g a a w w w Summerside is making world history by the opening of its Air Navigation school from which will be undertaken flights to the four quarters of the World, including the Arctic. In this con- nection it is worth recalling that it was Chief Justice Thane Campbell who first brought Sum- rnorside's possblllties forgsuch a purpose to the notice of the authorities. While Premier, he gave an interview to a London publication showing the advantages of his native town and province as the most central direct line point between thc Pacific and the Atlantic for airplane dc- velopment. The first recognition of his sugges- tion was the selection of Summerside for R.C.A.F. training during the war.’ Now it has risen one step higher as an all-important defence area. lt is the vision that makes the statesman. lt has been suggested, and so far no op- position offered, that the new naval quarters be located on our magnificent-public park at Brighton. Surely the authorities will not approve of such a sacrilege. The public park at Brighton is the city's greatest asset, beloved by the aged and infirm as an ideal resort in which they can enjoy the beauties of nature on land and sea, free from the interminable annoyance of passing automobile traffic. Hundreds of visitors have cnvied us this outlet from the busy city streets and traffic; one Ottawa visitor hero during~ the GOVQIIIOI-GETIUTIVS recent visit declaring it was worth a millicn dollars as "lungs of the most beautiful city in Canada."

The overall Prairie honey crop ts very good this year and of lilgh quality. In the Province of Quebec, thc season opened somewhat later than 1n a normal year owing to cold, wet. weather. During the summer months all crops benefited from warm weather and satisfactory rainfall, but, in recent. weeks. many districts suffered from drought. The grain harvest compared favourably with that of a normal year. An average crop of hey was stored. In many cases, pasture land is in poor con- dition. An above-average crop of peas and tomatoes was canned. Harvesting of a good potato crop has been completed in most. areas and good yields of other roots are indicated. A11 average crop of apples ls expected. With the exception of moderate blueberry crops in some districts, small fruits were ill good supply. The run of maple syrup was below normal in many urea: and the quality was in some cases only fair. In most. sections, rain is need- ed to facilitate fall ploughing. In Ontario. at the outsei, of the sea- son, good progress was made with seeding and planting and while a period of cold wet, weather during May retarded this work, operations were completed in good time. Favourable growing condition generally prevailed until mid- August when a lengthy period of hat, dry weather adversely affected most. late craps and dried up pastures.

National Health Expensive (Edinburgh Scotsmani Because of the "extraordinary" demands being made upon it, the cost at the National Health ser- vice in Scotland will probably am- ount. to £8,000,000 in the first year instead of the £6,500,000 estimated by the government. Details of some of the remarkable requests that are being made by patients were given by Sir William M. Mflfsllflll- Motherwell, at. the first cvllieteflve of the Scottish Association of Ex- ecutive Councils under the Ne- tlonal Health Service. Mentianlng that. 177,000 prescrip- lions had been presented in Glas- izow in August, Sir Wllllnm said: "A casual survey shows that. the number of articles now regarded as necessary ls startling." The prescriptions included one for a cocktail and auotlicr for sleeping tablets lo be Lakcn will! ten ounces of whisky, Others wcro iO-l‘ artificial eyes, wigs, and elas- tic stockings ranging from ten shillings to £2 10s a pair. "I don't. know why they bothered with the sleeping tablets," Sir Wil- llnm remarked, "and I cannot. ag- ree that a ihemist, ls the person who should supply n. wig." In July, 567,000 prescriptions were issued in Scotland, almost previously and the cost of cool had increased by about fifty per cent. In 1947 the cost. of prescrip- lions under National Health In- SWBIICQ was 500.000. It. we; likely that. the cost. 1n the first. year of the new service ‘would be about £2,000,000. "While this may be a good thing for the pharmaceutical profession," Sir William remarked, "I om not. so suite that. it iii a good thing for the public. and I om sure it. is not a good thing for the public pin-so." Giving tatistlcs of the demand for ophthalmic treatment, Sir Wil- item sold it. made him wonder ff the whole population of Scotland was going blind. In Glasgow, so far, there had been 33,000 applications for spect- acles, mc-st of thcm for two pairs, and that. demand was not. decreas- lng, In Edinburgh there 11nd been about. 13,00 applications, and in Lenarkehlre about. 11,000.

E. I.) CASCUMPEO POINT Somewhere during fihe iaet dec- ade of the 18th century Samuel Hill. who had been doing a business an the river Mlramlclil, came to the Island and landed at Cascumpec harbor. Recognizing the wealth of the pine forests with which the surrounding country was covered. he opened a store and started a lumhcr business at the end of the long promontory that juts into Cascumpec Bay. At this time only a few French settlers were scattered along the shores of the bay, on the direct route botwccii their countrymen in the east and thc French setllement of Tignisli. This route was notli- ing mare than the beach around the bay-across wading places in the creeks and gullles, and, where this was impossible, a rude track through the woods. One of these trucks, now known es the “Old French Road," can still be pointed out to the east of Aiberton, where the French made a detour tocross the hoarl of one of the numerous creeks that mark that locality. llill, after obtaining from the original grantees a portion of Lat. 1, together with Lots 3, 4, 5 and 6, opened up n lumber trade with the French and Indians. Ships came here from the Old Country and took buck cargoes of lumber. Car- goes were also sent. to the West. Indies and exchanged for rum, su- gar,.cto., and as he soon began strip-building his trade grew to be very extensive. o o 0 During Hill's time the country in thc vicinity of Cascumpec Bay re- ceived its first settlement of Eng- lish people. A number came out in Hill's ships, a great many of them being employed ln thc lumber busi- ness, ship-building and about Hill's establishment. Tho Hurdys and Gardens took farms on tho eastern shore of the Buy. and the Wells and Farsyllics settled in what is now known as the "Dock", about a mile west of Aiberlon. Other settlers took up iund in thc near vicinity, amour: them tho Mcggisons, who r-nmc mil from blnglzmil iii 1812, and anr- of whom was l.lio first. ziagis- lfliif‘ in this section of the wcst.
