PUBLIC HEALTH NURSING "The biggest program of the Di- vision of Public Health Nursing last year was the polio inoculating of our children," said the Minis- ter. "It was started In 1955 with Grade: I and II in the school and last year we had planned to start in the spring and do all children born before January I. 1050 to Grade X in school, but due to a shortage of vaccine we had to leave a large portion of the programme until last fall when the vaccine bo- cama available. This year we hope to complete all our children who were born before January 1. 1057 and who have not reached the lift of nineteen years by December 31. 1957, as well as pregnant women who present a certificate from their doctors.

Brigadier G. G. K. Peake. D.S.O., chairman of the Red Cross campaign in Charlottetown. reported last night that the can- vass got underway in the City on Monday of this week, when one lady and 35 gentlemen under Dr. G. C. Fisher, started the ball rolling towards gathering in the 312,800 required as Charlotte- town's share of the provincial ob- jective of 331,000. When questioned as to the reason for the increased objective -this year, Brig. Peake explained that rising costs and expanding services have made It necessary to increase the objective by 6.851. "Everyone knows," he said "that the dollar buys only one.half of what it used to.” The amount be- ing sought across Canada is the exact sum required to meet the budget requirements of the ten divisions and the national head- quarters, and each Province has had itsobjectlve "upped" by 6.85? accordingly. Hrlg. Pealte pointed out that while it costs 360.000 to provide Red Cross services in Prince Ed- ward. Island. residents of this Province are only naked in con- tribute 831.000. The balance of what is required comes to us from what is collected across Canada. 'I(nowinir that we are a 'debfor' province". Brig. Peake remark. cd.

The Island Province. she said, is unsurpassed as a va- cationiand and "May truly be cal- led the unspoiled holiday paradise of the Atlantic aeacoast." Not only is entering to the trav- elling public profitable for its own sake. Senator Inman said, but if 'J.me of tourist traffic to the Is- land increased appreciably, much of the farm produce of the Prov- ince would be used right on the spot and help to solve trade and export problems. Residents and representatives of the Province. she said, are noted for being modest, but in the matter of the beauty of land and seas and many other attractions, they should not hide their light and that of their province under a bushel. She emphasized how readily accessible the province is both by sea and by air.
