Our 1101" mat medium of light I3 W9 "W" ceaselessly in the theatre of the -.vari.l is our natural reason. It is bv n-.:r reason that we are able to perci-it-c the more obvious signific- anroix of things and relate them to N”-;(-lygs and God. Natural reason ii:-dccd. is the USDA by 3193” of iihifll we see God in the frame of llemli-r. We have other powers- senses and appetites-and they ('0iliTl'3lll.e to our total knowledge bu; mm; are of themselves incan- mo ollrelating thlniz! to God- liczisoll is the light by which we succeed in achieving this. The alcoholic. for example. is a pel'SOll who has acquired a taste for liquor and who allows his sense of taste rather than his rea- son in determine what shall be his mitude towards alcohol He is one who has abandoned the light of sanctioned polygamy is an ac- ceptable mode of social living. In all too many of the ordinary avenues of life. practical judge- ment is drawn from the darker side of our nature to the utter neglect oi that one spark of true light which is properly ours-our God-given light of reason. Is it any wonder, then. that we are con- tinually striving to compensate our loss by madly pursuing the titillating glow of artificial splen- dor? - But the light of reason is only one manifestation of divine light within the human being. we have another light of far fuller beam by which, if we will, we can see into the hidden meaning of things in a. way that surpasses all reason. This is the light of faith. Faith is a manner of knowledge by which God makes possible a union be- tween the human soul'and Him- self. It is the kind of wisdom. in- clining it to obey the movements of the Holy Ghost. It is an actual indwelling of the Godhead. that "bright effluence of bright cs- sence increate" which Milton once apostrophized in "Paradise Lost." The ultirnaie light given to men is that Light of Glory by which they will one day be able to see God Himself. This has been beauti- fully treated by the celebrated divine. Dr. John Donne. "God gave me the light of nature when I quickened in my mother's womb by receiving a reasonable soul: and God gave me the light of faith when I quickened in my second mother's womb. the church. by receiving my baptism. But in my third day. when my mortality shall put on immortality. He shall give me the light of glory by which I shall see Himself. To this light of glory. the light honor is but a glow-worm: and majesty itself but a twilight; the cherubims and seraphims are but candles In it I shall not only see God face to face. but I shall know Him- and know Him as also I am known." Such are the only forms of light which can have lasting signific- ance for man. Where they are wanting, i.here is unutterable darkness. The WEEK at S. D. U. last week. when we reported tliat the High School All Stars had um the intramural football cham- pmnslup. we promised that there uould be more interesting and im- portant items coming from high school in the near future. Less. than a week passed before there was more news concerning high which certainly aiugurs well. not merely for hlgh'sohool. but for the college generally. On Friday evening. there resulted from an enthusiastic meeting of some bail school studalts and interest- rd faculty members. a plan to pro- duce a mlmeograiphed newspaper. C irr::ien and edited by the students '. of high school. I I 9 - ldca: 61. if we are to judge by the de- termination with which H-lis pro- lcct has received by the students 0-' high school. there is every rea- son to believe that the venture hut! meet with every success. The tnnlrlbiltion that even this niimeo- mixhed paper could make to col- re life is diftficult to overestimate. it will be a means of stimulating 5Ti'ailVc activity Among high tcimolstudents. It will serve as I illPflliJ.f'I'i for expressing the ideas 1” -"t 1-tree part of the student body.

President of the Students' Union. left for Montreal where he represented St. Dunstan's at a conference which is aimed at ex- panding the Canadiian Federation of Catholic University Students. St. Dunstan's is very much inter- ested in joining this National Federation. for it means that we shall be united in a national body which is interested in the problems of the day. and which will com- ment on such problems with a -- on voice. The third conference. which was a regional meeting of International Students Service. was held at Mount Allison University in Sack- v-iilc. Saturday. November 11th. St. Dunstan's was represented by Wilbert Mclnnis. president of the St. Dunstan's branch of l. S. 5.. and Rev. J. P. E. 0iHanley, faculty adviser for the universities of the Maritlmes. Father O'l-Ianley and Wilbert. on returning from the meeting Saturday night. reported that the results achieved at the get A ,, tber promise a successful year for I. S. S. in the Maritimes. Football drew its last breath (if. indeed. football does draw breaths) for the 1950 season since the "Week" last came your way. Sart- urday afternoon. November 4th. a ringed team from Mt. Allison. who have gone on to win the Maritime Intercollegiate cham-pionsihip. came from behind to defeat the Saints 0-5. Last Wednesday afternoon. the season officially closed when the Saints. supplemented by some second team stars, trimmed the local Abegweviis 12-5. The College is proud of its rugby teams this year. as it alwayshae been. Sec- ond team retained its intermediate championship. and first team made a fine allowing in senior intercol- legiste play. Win or lose, we re- joice in the fact that the Saints always give their best. Out here on the "hill" that is all we ask. And we are proud of them for it. It is never easy in single out a plays: to whom can be given out- standing recognition ahead of his teainmaies. Rather than try such a difficult thing. this column pays tribute to a young man acknow- ledged. by everyone around the campus as much a part of foot- ball as anyone. He is team man- ager. Bill McNeely. Bill is re- ceiving great pi-aise,for the emol- ent way he looked after football at the College. and for the aplen- ddad way in which he held down ex- penses in a year which financial resources were anything but plen- tiful. In words which are now im- mortal, "You're a great man, Billy; in fact. you are two great meni" As we near the end of another week of college life. we should like to apologize to the rink com- mittee. headed by rink manager Jimmy Larkin. for neglecting to give them due credit for their part in preparing the rink for the basketball season. As the teams took to the rink. but not to the ice. to begin league play. three courts cleared of all refuse. and distinctly marked. awaited them. And we understand that the rink committee was responsible in large part for the fine job of preparing the rink for the basketball season. Settu-day. Remembrance Day, was roclaimed a half-holiday at S. D. . in honor and fond remembrance of the men who gave their lives in the defence of freedom. which was maintained for some countries at the expense of two terrible wars in thirty years. In solemn sup- ine pllcotioa for the souls of those who Island Odds And Ends Maritime industries by the score have fallen by the wayside in the last imenty-five years under the assaults of Upper Canadian com- petition. But hue and there an industry survived tenaciously, over- com' 1 many and vexing obstacles ranging from high cost of mater- ials and long freight hauls to re- moteness from markets. In such a. category belongs the Montague rurnishing Company, manufacturers of funeral caskets, or if you prefer - coffins. For many years now the company has ship- ped its product to Quebec and On- tario. Nova Sootla and New Brims- wick, occasionally to Western Call- ada. and to such distant points as South Africa, British Guiana and the West Indies. With Newfound- land. a part of Canada, the comp- any is also finding that market ac- cessible, Twenty-five to thirty peo- ple are employed by the Montague company and many of them have been employed at the same tasks for more than twenty years. Most of them own theiraown homes and form a not insignificant proportion of the town's folk who are employ- ed the year around. A town which can boast several industries of this size is healthy financially. Unfortunately few is- land towns or communities can bcast more than even one. Monta- gue is lucky enough to have sev- eral including Beck at Sons mon- ument works, employing fifteen skilled hands. 0 0 Wendell Graham. owner of a fish cannery at Gaspereaux is the type of citizen who is happy to be in st pcsitioll to give people employment, well-content with a small profit or even to break even. Recently when conditions made it advisable to close down his plant until the lab- ster season opens in the spring. he cast about for some means of keep- ing his staff at work and found 2 solution, Since September the can- nery has been turning out quahaucs by the case and at present is pack- ing oysters. Many of the shellfish come by long truck haul from dis- tant parts of Prince County thus adding to costs. Undismayed, Mr. Graham has gone ahead and about twenty people are wage-earners during this pre-Christmas period. who otherwise might be idle. Mr. Graham obtains oysters from Rollo Bay as well as from Prince County, and quahaugs from various other Island bays and rivers. The market for the fish is very good at present and so long as the demand continues and weather permits, the Graham plant will-be busy. Only yards away. William Gra- ham, a brother of Wendell. has nearing completion a modern new cannery which will be ready for the spring fishing. It is plants of this kind conducted by wide-awake owners which contribute much to the prosperit and general well-be- ing of the mmediate community. and in the final analysis to the con- tinued prosperity of.the Province. 0 O The extension of the paved high- way from Poole's corner to George- town will not be carried out this year. The sub-grading. about fin- ished now, was completed too late to permit hard-surfacing under re- liable weather conditions. But the paving plant itself was erected near Roseneath station and is located in a field a few feet off the highway. it is ready for service in the spring and this should be sufficient guar- antee that the pavement wlll be laid at the earliest practical moment. Residents in the district understand that the road to and beyond card- igan to the "Seven Mile Road" may also be hard-surfaced. O O 0 Very few people suffer from an over abundance of common sense, and the individual who has a good- ly share of it plus tact and court- esy has something on the ball. Scr- geant Larry Mclnnls of the Char- lottetown police force. as he checks up on carelessly parked cars seems to have been blessed with all three traits. In his friendly way. he can be seen almost daily straightening out parking snarls and infractions with a word of reproof to this vio- lltor, a. warning to mother. an ex- planation of parking regulations to the man not familiar with them. Patient and understandins. he never attempts to threw his weight around; instead he endeavors to be helpful, to instruct rather than to punish, to obtain cooperation by a friendly attitude. 0 O 0 Island farmers rcde roughshod over the opposition they met in the great majority of the events at the Amherst winter Fair. They were so one-sidedly better that it was al- most embarrassing. And yet despite this thrilling superiority. freight rates and tariffs rob our farmers of much of their profits. 0 O 0 Great Britain's dollar shortage and general financial troubles are sneered at by her ill-owishers. who disqiprove of the help extended by the United atoms and Canada. But as an.American writer has pointed out, Great v tain's poverty in dol- lars is suit a war wound suffered when she contributed almost her last penny to the cause. It can well be asked than when war wounds because he of shame. Nor is it remember often enough that the old' country may be short of doi-, lars. but not of pounds. Ind lb ccuntries in the sterling area where pounds will buy the necessities of life and of industry and trade. she has loaned. and donated millions. I bravely died, each etudent of- fred h-is Mass and Holy Com- munion Ssturday morning. And may we remind you. as we end this week's notes. that it is a fact that. even at the cost of so many noble lives. the peace has not yet been won. At. this time. th-e sincere prayers of all Chris- tians are needed ssanever before. ,, OEIITRAL OIIARIIIAII fbleaelaasnbreeervedfes lows Iflesellsstenllybisteivestidngei anaway nature Insybeinssrtod atfive unuawortuuetiy pgy. sbloinsdvaaea.

For such a large bird. the Rough- '12-gged Hawk has small. weak talons. and, as its names signifies, its legs. unlike those of most spe- cies. are feathered. its soft. fluffy plumage. which makes flight al- most noiseless. and its habit of hunting at twilight, both tend to cause us to mistake it for an Owl.

They fly slowly. and soar in wide circles. tails spread. keeping so high up that it is difficult to re- cognize them.
