Shaw, direc- tor of education, attended three conferences. In Ottawa he was pre- sent at a meeting of the National Council of Physical Fitness and also attended the conference of the NationalAdvismy Committee on Vocational Education. Dr. Shaw also participated at Winnipeg in the meeting of the Canadian Edu- cational Association nnd was elect- ed vice-president of that organiz- atlon. Personals Mr and Mrs. A. D. Cameron. Stellarton. N. S.. have returned home alter spending the holiday “reek-end with Mr. and Mrs. J. P. Campbell, Spring St. ili-Y-Ilclegates In Conference Some 140 l-Ii-Y delegates from the Maritimes met in temporary quarters in the new Y. M. C. A. building over the week-end. Dis- cusslon groups were led by Messrs. W. R. Shepherd. Boys‘ Work Secre- tary. Y.l\l.C.A. Halifax; Nelson Mc- Ewen of Charlottetown who is Sccretary of the Saint John. NB. Y.M.C.A.; J. A. McConnell, Gener- al-Secretnry of Charlottetown Y. M. C. A. and Jack Sinclair of the Hali- fax Y staff. In the discussion of Iii-Y mem- bership and organization Mr. Shep- herd revealed that within the year it was expected that a Maritime Boys’ Work Secretary will be ap- pointed. His work will include the extension of Hi-Y Clubs, especially in smaller towns with no Y.M.C.A. group. Emphasis was laid on the necessity for proper club organiz- ation in the conduct of meetings, routine oi business and the various functions of the officers and ex- ecutive. The program and project discuss- ions led by Mr. McEwen stressed the necessity of long-term planning and the personal development of members in such matters as public speaking and the responsibilities of office. Projects suggested were the re-making of toys and volun- tary community services which would entail minor civic respon- aibilitles. The three-year money- ralsing project for the Y. M. C. A. World Youth Fund will be contin- ued in order to help youth in war- torn areas in Europe and Asia. Mr. McConnell in the "education for life" discussions, touched on the preparation for life through vocational guidance which includ- ed vocational tests. The groups considered public affairs at the city, provincial. national and inter- national levels. Youthful skills such as creative and descriptive writing. typewritlng and other hobbies outside school were dia- cussed including first-aid and wet» er safety. It was also pointed out that less strenuous games such as swimming, golf, tennis, curling and bowling should be practised to- wards the day when football and hockey will be beyond the aging body. Stress was laid on the ac- quiring of social skills auch as ettlqueite, the arts of conversation and entertainment and other am- enities of living. The discussion on Christian cit- izenship led by Mr. Sinclair prov- ed to be of intense interest. Meth- ods of interpreting the Christian virtues into everyday life were dis- cuued with much vigour and ring- ed from the quiet“clo-it-now"spirlt to monastic unworldliness. A feature of the conference was an address by LleuL-Col. K. S. Rog- ers entitled "Youth in the Mari- tirnea" in which he atru ed the necessity of hard work— riot to stop at. a 40 hour wcek"-—and through individual enterprise. technical and vocational training to develop small industries and stay at home here in the Marl- tlmes. ' The conference ended yesterday at noon. Through some misunder- atanding regarding return arrange- ments. the two bus-loads oi dele- gates from the mainland were left at Wood Islands. The Halifax group proceeded by Borden ferry and did not expect to arrive until 4 a.m. while the Syd- ney party returned to Charlotte- town for: the night arid left this in» count-rs. morning via Borden.

And Handicaps in Political Address Fortunate in many other rc- elleoi-i- Prince Edward Island is still seriously handicapped by in- adequate transportation and high freight rates, declared Hon. Cyrus Macmillan. PhD, LL.D., in the course of a political address last evening. A member of the Duncan Com- mission of i926, Dr. Macmillan re- called the Commission's finding on the exorbitant freight rates burden borne by the Maritimes at that time, and said this was as true, if not truer, today than it was then. Ho emphasized also the urgent need of an additional ferry for the exclusive use of motor vehicles. Comrnendlng the Jones Govern- ment on its "progressive legisla- tion." he instanced assistance giv- en to summer hotels in providing increased tourist accommodation. improvement oi highways and secondary roads, assistance in improving school buildings, in- crease in teachers’ salaries, and agriculture, health and welfare aci- ivities. Referring to the teacher short- age problem he said this condi- tion was Canada-wide. If it is not solved there will come a time when no teachers will be avail- able. and the result will be a na- tional calamity. The increase giv- en in this Province scarcely com- pensated for the advanced cost of living, and he urged that more generous action in this matter be taken by the public. He instanced evidences of Isl- and prosperity in increased farm production, estimated at $12,000.- 000 for the past six months as compared with $7,500,000 for the same period of 1047. He also stressed the increase in tourist ‘traffic and in turnover cf tourist dollars. What Utopian dreamers have promised under a system of social- ism has already been achieved in Prince Edward Island in the comparatively equal distribution of wealth and opportunity for all, Dr. Macmillan maintained.
