Burned To Dea-thin Fire In Kings County John Russell Taylor. a 69-year- old bachelor at Marie, Kings County, was burned to death early Sunday morning in ii fire which completely destroyed his single storied home where he has lived alone for a number of years. The Souris detachment of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police were notified of the fire about 9.00 am. but reports from neigh- bors. indicate that the blaze had taken place at an earlier hour. The frame dwelling, 16x24 was burned to the ground when police arrived and found the charred re- mains of the victim. While the cause of therfire has not been de- termined, it is reported that an oil binning stove 'in the living room could have started the blaze while the victim was asleep. Next of kin to the late Mr. Taylor are a cousin, Charles Cof- fin of Fortune and another cou- sin. Mrs. Ernest Dingwell, Souris. Coroner R. A. Burden of St. Peters who viewed the remains. empanelled a jury to meet for the inquest on January 11th. Wind, snow. ice and rain all oombincd yesterday to make life miserable for people of this city. The wind- averaged 30 miles all day with gusts running much higher. according to reports from Mr, Warren Bums, weatherman at the Experimental Farm. Mr. Burns also reported that over an inch of rain had fallen while temperatures hovered about the 38 degree mark. treacherous sidewalks and in many of the exposed places it was de- finitely dangerous with both men and women being blown back- ward-s on the ice as heavy gusts hit. them from around or in back of buildings. The storm and high winds also played havoc with sport in the city as the game between the Is- landers and Sydney Millionaires had to be cancelled when the car ferry at Borden ceased operations after its train crossing at 2.40 yesterday afternoon. The schedul- ed trip at 7.30 last night could not be made and the Abegweit was tied up at the Borden pier. It was not expected that any ex- tra freight trips would be made unless the wind died down con- siderably. Throughout The Province Both the Island Telephone Com- pany and the Maritime Electric Company reported last night that they had little difficulty through the day although they did en- counter some trouble Sunday night i Travellers on the highways said that in general conditions were better than in the city where the ice seemed to remain despite the rain. They also noted, however. that the hills in rural areas were sometimes difficult to navigate though they had been sanded by the Provincial Department. of Public Works and Highways. The storm which began with show over the holiday week-and caused trouble all across the Prov- ince. Cars were reported stuck in drifts almost everywhere as the more open rural spaces permitted the winds to carry the snow into deeper piles. Howe claims Continued from page I ooine almost non-existent, Canada in the first i0 months of 1958 ex- ported about 3466 worth of goods to Russia,-mostly gifts. Imports- mostly raw furs--totalled about S4i6,000 in the first eight months of last year. During the Second World War, however, Canadian exports to Rus- sia reached as high as sl00.000,000 a. year. cse were mostly war materials used by Ruuia to beat rack the Nazi invasion. Howe Optimistic Turning to the world economic front generally, Mr. Howe said he is "optimistic" about the future. He believed Canada's gross nation- al product which reached a peak of &i,200,000.000 in 1968. will in- vcreue again in IBM. The rate of increase, however, would not likely be as great. as the Sl.200,000.000 advance in 1953. UN Recommends More Trade With Asiatic Couniries GENEVA, Switzerland (Reuters) -A group of United Nations agen- cies Monday recommended increas- ed trade with Asia as a major step towards a stable world econ- OIIIY. . In a 146-page study, they sus- gested these "desirable adjust- ments:' 1. Asia and the Far East should sell more goods to the United States, and buy less. The resulting dollar surplus could be used to buy goods from Europe. easing that continent's dollar shortage. 2. Europe should also sell more soods to dollar countries. and purchase raw materials from non- doliar countries. 3. In addition to increased trade. there should be a "substantially" greater flow of capital. The recommendations would cor- rect Asia's increasingly unfavor- able trade balance. said the re- port.

" PoliceHChiel- Speaks Atllolary "Persons in this class are found in all ualks of life," said Chief of route MacArthur in describing ”Goat Getters in Life” in an ad- dress before the Rotary Club at their weekly luncheon in the Charlottetovm Hotel yesterday. The speaker continued, "This type of person has been here from the dim and distant past, and strangely enough at times, chang- ing their personality, going from the aggrieved to the aggressor. No one is immune from their wise- cracks or saliies and all, at one time or another, have felt the sting of their barbs and arrows." "It is a Democratic principle that all should live free untre.m- melled lives and all are entitled to the pursuit of happiness. Any psychiatrist will tell you that in order to be mentally health-y. it is necessary to be happy I-late. envy. spite and the harbouring of grudges, will destroy any chance of happiness and mental health," the speaker said. "Our goat getters are with us from the cradle to the grave." he continued. "They are a close of people who find it difficult. to give any other person credit for any accomplishment. that sur- passes their own. They disagree not only with particular individ- uals. but also with accepted thought and action. They insinuate themselves into every circum- stance and seem to take an un- holy delight in bringing chaos into an otherwise serene existence. "I am sure," the speaker said, "they were present when Columbus tried to Show those about him that the world was round; when Na- poleon faced the Alpine snows and incl. disaster on the barrer. plains of Russia and with Charles Martel when be defeated the hordes of G-hengia Kahn. They would be there to obstruct pro- gress with their innuendoe and contrary ideas." ”l-lowcvcr," the speake; continu- ed, Has in infancy or young child- hood. the actions and sayings of this class very often produces re. suits that are the direct opposite of unhappiness." The Chief recalled many humor- ous Goat. Getter incidents and re- ferred to one such after a WrQLch. ed night in the trenches of the Ylpe-es Belient. "After a cold, wet period. drenched with enemy fire, the morning came and one of the Old Guard received a beautiful 'Blighty'. As he was being carried to comparative safety, one of the new lads looking on was heard to exclaim 'oh the poor fellow.' What a goat getter that lad. was. to the old veterans who would have given 3 kings ransom to be on the stretcher under similar cir- cumstancea." The speaker continued on a more eerious vein dealing with life and happiness and the obvi- ous contact betwoen life and I Supreme Intelligence which gov- erns all nature. He cited the case of the young salmon after spend- inc years at sea. comes back to his own river and travels up the very side of the river into which flows the tributary where he was born. Much more disconcerting is thO mystery of eels which migrate at maturity from all ponds and rivers.

Their little ones, with no apparent means of knowing except that they are in a wilderned of water. find their way back to um very ponds, lakes and rivers their parents came from. In conclusion Chief MacArthur said "Therefore gentlemen if we must be goat getter-s, let us be 0i' 1-110 type who will bring a little mirth or happiness in life and count that day lost whose low descending sun, views from our hand no worthy action done."

Parents lleiiecorate School classroom During Holidays At the regular meeting of the City School Board it was noted that a group of interested pal'cnt.s had repainted a classroom of West Kent School during the Christmas holi- days even using New Year's Eve for one phase of the project! These parents had prevlmi-sly requested certain changes to improve the classroom. On learning that theirs was only one of many classrooms needing the rcqucsted l'EnDVatiJrl.&' they decided to go half way to make their childrens' classronni both more pleasant and more ef- ficient. The Board to help with the project. has used the room as an experiment in the use of baffle boards installed bchind the lights to improve lighting. Mr. Kenneth Parker, City Supcr- intendent of Schools in his report congratulated the teachers and pupils on the successful results of their co-operative effort in put- ting on their Christmas prngranis. Queen Square presented their tra- ditional varlety program on two successive nights to capacity crowds; West Kent presented a Christmas pageant at Prince of Wales auditorium under bhc di- rection of Rev. Horace MncE)wen. it most creditable production in cvery way; Rochford Square de- lightfully entertained a large gathering of parents and friends one evening: Prince Street had their customary musical C'hi-isr.- nuts program but duo to lack of space was forccd tn confinn their two programs to their own stu- dents. High School Tenders Major Earl Baker chairman of the Building Committee for the new high school reported that tenders for the completion of this building will be opened within the next two weeks. Work will then be immediately proce:-ded with. Now that the sncond phasn of the new high school unit is about to be started, Mr, Parker advised that consideration should soon be given methods of selecting staff for the new school, and other mat- ters pertaining to the setting up of the school. A plan to allow our present. mi- piln to submit. a name for their new school was discussed. The Board are anxious that thp name be one chosen by some pupil or grmirp of pupils.

Eight miles of work vias let on broken stretciies from Pinctte towards Millview, most of which has been completed. A aeal ooat between Montague and Lower Montague. a distance of approximately five miles, has also been completed ”The continumis min and iiciivy traffic on the St. Peter's Road in May and early June gave us a bad beating we had not anticipat- ed," the Minister said. ”We had a great deal of re-building and scai coating to put this iniportaiit traffic route back in shape" Trans-Canada Highway ”Tl-ie Trans-Canada Highway stretch between Cornwall and the Queen's Arms corner did not pro- gress as favourably as planned due to the fall rains which also iii- tc-rfered with other minor pro- joots under way.
