"TIMMY" of the Island being‘ introduced to Rotarians and their Billy Watson In Stirring I Seal Sales Drive Appeal The stirring appeal of “Whipp- . er" Billy Watson before an audi- ence of 200 at the Rotary luncheon meeting at the Charlottetown Ho- tel yesterday, sparked the Eas—ter Seal Sales drive 1958 for the Is- land, sponsored by the Charlotte- town Rotary Club. School Boy Curlers from every Province in Canada swelled the guest list to 110. ‘ “We are bringing out a “Tim- my” in each province’ in Canada to represent the 40,000 handicapp- ed boys and girls we know of, with a view to having each and every one of them taken care of, regardless of what their deform- ity may'be,” Mr. Watson said In his opening remarks. stressing the great value deriv- ed through bringing together han- guests by “Whipper" Billy Wat- son at the luncheon meeting at the cribed the successful efforts made by service clubs through summer camps and other projects. He spoke of the determined five-year- old Manitoba boy, who despite leg braces and crutches, donned his skates and brushed aside the assistance of his mother, to spend an hour with other children on ice, unattended. The amazing performance of a young chap in Alberta was out- standing, Mr. Watson said as he pictured his skilful manipulation ofipaint brushes with a long handle placed between his teeth as a substitute for his two arms which were missing. “His painted pictures are really good and re- cently when I visited him he was answering his correspondence on a typewriter, by the same me- dicaped children.

It was marred, however, towards Its end, by the sudden passing of our beloved champion of Red Cross—and many other organi- zations—Dr. W. J. P. Mac- Millan. Through the years ‘he has been an example and an in- spiration to all of us_. and the memory of his devotion to the cause of humanity will ever spur us on to even great accomplish- ments in the future. He SHARED his God-given talents in many fields of endeavour. As we trace the advance of education, health and welfare in our province, his name appears in all the chapters of the story. In writing this Annual Report of the Prince Edward Island Division, I would like to deve‘op the theme of “SHARING” — upon which Red Cross 1S based- as a tribute to Dr. MacMillan, - that outstanding, citizen_ who as an _exemplary .ChI‘lSI;laII — so admirably carried out the principle of SHARING through- out his very full and rich life. JUNIOR RED CROSS _ To carry out_ the pattern fol- lowed in previous Annual Re- ports, let us see how the Drin- ciple of SHARING applies to Junior Red Cross. Surely, the Junior Red Cross motto “I Serve” was the means of our 16,- 218 Juniors in 632 Branches in elementary and high school grades sharing in promoting “Service to Others, Good Citizen- ship, Good Health and Interna- tional Friendliness” among the C a n a d i a n membership, and among other Juniors in 69 coun- tries of the world. Again, the $1,264.16 which our Islland Jun- iors contributed to their own Handicapped Children’s Fund al- lowed them to share with the Rotary Club of Charlottetown, and the Masons of Montague in providing treatment for 168 needy children. They also shared in making st. Francis Xavier University’; debatlrig team grounded at New Glasgow last evening because of poor flying weather and the sche- duled debate last night between them and St. Dunstan’s Univer- sity here was postponed until Wednesday night. Don MacDouga1l of Kinkora, member of last year's Canadian Intercollegiate Championship “self-help” possible for fe‘lowl Junior Red Cross members in less developed countries through their contributions of $348.28 to the Fund for International Help and Understanding. Assistance of this kind, and a genuine in- terest in studying the problems ofyoung people in other lands will do more to promote world peace than all the “sputniks” and other ballistic missiles that can be developed. Since Junior Red Cross is recognized as the largest youth organization in the “world, it has a great potential if it is properly utilized by our ed- ucators. I We we proud of the splendid program. planning done by our Director of Junior Red Cross, Mrs. Paul Devlin, for this year's High School Red Cross Training Centre held at the University of New Brunswick in Fredericton. Arranging for this Training Cen- tre was a tremendous under- taking .which required a great deal of detailed planning. It was. all the more difficult because of the fact that was held in a prov- ince other than our own. - WOMEN’~S WORK Many hundreds of women throughout the province had the satisfaction of sharing in the making of a record number of garments for overseas and local relief. 6,114 of‘ the 6,500 articles produced from materials pur- chased with funds contributed during the Campaign, were for- warded to Austria for Hungarian Relief, to the League of -Red Cross Societies for distribution where the need" was greatest,. to France, Switzerland and Turkey. Articles were also provided for local Disaster Services and for miscellaneous relief. The Canadian representatives to the 19th International Red Cross Conference held in New Delhi, India, last October claim that the excellence of the cloth- ing made up by Canadian wo- men for overseas relief is one of the reasons why the Canadian Red Cross is so well known and highly esteemed in the many countries which have shared in receiving this clothing.

In Rates OTTAWA (CP) -— The railways claimed Monday before the Su- preme Court of Canada they were not treated justly in getting a 3.6- per-cent general freight rate in- crease from the board of trans- port commissioners in Decem- r. They filed notice of appeal from the judgment which gave them only part of a 10-per-cent boost they sought. The railways contended the board denied them “just and rea- sonable” rates in allowing only a $15,000,000-a-year increase. Monday’s move was the latest in a series of manoeuvers involv- ing board rate judgments. These include: 1. The same increase appealed to the court by the railways has been suspended by the cabinet until March 1 or later, pending hearings on an appeal from it by eight provinces. The provincial governments—all except Ontario and Quebec -— contend there all. - 2. The cabinet has also insti- tuted a similar suspension on» a board award of an increase av- eraging seven per cent on Bell Telephone Company rates in On- tario and Quebec. The suspension was ordered pending hearings on an appeal by 36 municipalities. ACT ON PORT RATES 3. The board itself has sus- to the convention.

This represents an increase of 18% over the previous year's result,- and can be attribued in a large measure to new enthusiasm en- gendered by the establishment of the “Life Saver Club”. This Club is an exclusive group with membership restricted to those who offer a blood donation to pay their dues. Its establish- ment is the product of the.in- . genuity and resourcefulness of our Provincial Blood“ Donor Chairman, Mr. F. A. S. Jones, who has the whole-hearted sup- port of his Committee all over the province, as well as of 5% of our population who are don- ars. - The 1,483 patients who shared in receiving the 3,000 bottles of blood were saved $75,000 by this service. This is estimated on the prinicple of $25.00 per bottle ——-the average cost in hospitals where there is a charge for blood transfusions. The Red Cross Blood Transfusion Service certainly provides ‘a wonderful} opportunity for all who are in good health to share this bless- ing with others. It is encourag- ing to find that more of our citi- zens are becoming conscious of the need each year.
