' " Airmail Service she Board of Trade is rightly concerned at gh¢ prospect of losing our present satisfactory passe-tiger, mail and express service by airplane. This service has been given to us in licu of the second trip of the cai- ferry steamer lt enables us to send out mail up till 11.45 a. m. to catch the mail going to Montreal and Halifax; then on return we get the first class mail from Montreal and the \\ cst between 5 and 6 o'clock in the lvuiing. _ It is rumored that this arrangement is to be cancelled with the introduction early next year of the trans-Canada Airways passenger service to the Blaritimes. Under the proposed schedule a plane would leave Moncton at daybreak for Sumrnerside, Charlottetown, New Glasgow and Sydney, arriving in Sydney in sufficient time to let airmail posted in Montreal the evening before be delivered by letter carrier the follow- ing moniiizg; lf this goes through, and the present service is cancelled it means that we would be in a worse position than we were under the old double-trip ferry system. It is hoped that our representatives, federal and provincial, will cooperate with the Board of Trade in protesting vigorously against it. There is no reason why the present schedule should not be continued profitably as a feeder line by Trans-Canada Airways, maintained as a special service to this Province. The passenger rate would be $6.00 instead of $9.00 as under the present system, and this reduction, which we were promised in any case, would undoubtedly attract more passenger traffic. It may be only a few weeks before the pro- posed changes go into effect, and promptand concerted action will be needed to insure that our right to the present efficient service be re- lpected. Si. Andrew's Day It is time that the critics ceased harping on the merely legendary connection between St. and maintenance of an adequate system of sup- ervision and inspection of the operation, ini- provement and use of thc lands and personal property provided as aforesaid; (f) the prov~ ision of courses of instruction and demon- stration for those who are assisted by the allocation of the lands or personality as afore- said; (g) the institution of a detailed survey of substandard farni lands of the Province in order to determine which of such lands are most suitable for allocation as aforesaid; (h) ‘the registration of young men who are potentially successful farmers but who cannot properly es- tablish themselves in the agricultural industry without governmental assistance; (i) in general. the carrying out of any measures which tnay be deemed feasible and necessary for the rehabili- tation of substandard farms and the assistance of necessitous farmers." This programme, according to Premier Camp- bell, was one of the chief reasons for calling an election last May. During the campaign it was specifically stated the Federal Government was assisting by a stibstantial grant, and that if the Campbell Government was returned to power, "a survey would be started immediately and a definite policy will be in effect by the autumn of the present year so that farming operations may be commenced by the spring of i940." (Patriot, May it). As the campaign warmed up, it was announced that the farm rehabilitation scheme had “already begun." (Patriot, May I6.) Now we have a judge of the Supreme Court appealing to the Legislative members to take action on their own account, and start a. survev for the purpose of providing the Government with a basis for action! This delay is all the more inexcusable since the outbreak of war and the pressing need, as Judge Saunders points out, for placing farm production at the highest peak of efficiency. == IIDIIURIAL NUIIIS = St. Andrew. s a a a Rt.

Yes, but what of the British censors who open and inspect even League of Nation propaganda sent from Lon- don to Canada? s w n Andrew and Scotland. Legends may be true in a deeper sense than factual statements. What is known about the life of St. Andrew — that he was one of Christ's earliest disciples, that he was zealous in propagating Christianity and suffered martyrdom for his faith—is sufficient to have recommended him to the notice of the religious Scots, particularly as he stands reveal- ed both as realist and idealist-a man in whom, as in every true Scot, enthusiasm ivas tempered by caution. Auilipv is on record as being the “first elder", bringing his own brother to the Master. I-le was the first foreign missionary when he brought the inquiring Greeks mention- ed in the gosiwls to Jesus, and it was also An- drew who "found the boy on the side of the mountain who was willing to share his lunch with the crowd.” St. Andreiv‘s death occurred at Patra about AD. 7o. From Patra, three centuries later, his relics were taken to Constantinople, and thence, when the city fcll to the Crusaders frotn the West, to Amalfi in Italy. llow they reached Britain-if they did reach Britain——remains a mystery; but according to the most ancient of the stories they were taken by Acca, Bishop of Hcxham, to the Pictish King Angus between 731 and 76f, and buried where the city of St. Andrew now stands. What is significant about the legend today is that it continues to inspire Scotsmen to high ideals and noble effort. The anniversary of the saint is, as it has been for centuries, the "days of days," honoured wherever Scotsmen can gather together in ample feast around the social hoard. Thus will it be this evening in every part of the lTmpire. The Ilziggis will be tishered in with the lime-honored ritual, and the post-prandial speeches will reflect the mod- est pride the Scot takes in his national heritage and achievements.

Is there any simple chemical which l could be used for this purpose?" Answer: Sterilization of dishes and so on by means of chemicals is not satflafactory. In the first piaoe 1t 1s well-nigh impossible to bring the chemical into Intimate ccntact. with the germs of dtcase that: may be found on dishes, knives, and other table utensils. t The dangerous germs may be cav- ered by or imbedded in, remnants of food, grease and other insoluble materials. The use of chemical disinfectants 1s a very poor way by which to sterilize dishes. Most chemical disinfectants are ex- pensive, (in war tme). Often they are offensive to the smell and unless carefully selected, they may be dangerous. There 1s one safe, cheap and satisfactory method of disinfecting dishes and table utenriis, namely by the use o1’ boiling wa‘er or live steam. It. 1s simple, rapid and compietey effective. No chemical approaches it: 1f fire ls available, boiling water or lye steam may si- ways be had. ~31’ John W. S. McCullough, M.D., D P.H. ________________ KENSINGTON GORE. Eur-To R.
