The local commit- tee which undertook a house to house canvas reports that practic- ally everyone wants this pro- gramrnetobecarriedoutasthey realise it will be a means of pro- tootion for them. They hope that everyone in the community from the ,oungest infant to the oldest resident will have the preliminary tuberculin skin tests done and those who have negative reactions to the tests will avail themselves of the opportunity oi vaccination against tuberculosis. The programn1e.starts on niday morning of this week when two teams of doctors and nurses from the Department of Health and Welfare will visit the school to do the skin "patch" test on the school children. In the afternoon and evening the teams will be at the Legion Hall to test the adults and young children. on Tuesday. June 11th. the doct- ore and nurses will again be at the school and Legion Hall to read the reactions oi the "patch" test. If the reaction is negative. a slightly stronger skin test will then be giv- en. The Mobile X-ray ' Unit will also be in Borden on Tuesday, when it is expected that everyone in the form over 5 yrs oi age will report for a chest x-ray. As there is difficulty experienced in keep- ing the younger children still enough for a. succesrul x-ray plate. the Mobile Unit does 'not x-ray anyone under 5 yrs. oi age. If nec- essary for any oi the tiny tots to be x-rayed. they wouidhave to be done at one oi the hospitals where there are more facilities. The thirdpart oi this pro- gramme will be carried out on Thursday, June 19th when those who received the second skin test will again report back to the school or Legion Hall to have the doctors see the result of this test. If the reaction is still negative. then these people will be offered B. C. G. Vaccination. Coleman, Soldier , Home From Korea Sgt.

However. if he were representin- the bus com- pany -he would say that private enterprise was giving a good ser- vice that had not been complained about by the public except in a re- cent letter to the press where s oi persons going East from Bouris had to wait' on the street in unfavourable weather un- til the bus came along. The bus company, he said. put extra buses on up to any number required, as called for by the traffic daily. He concluded by saying "I do not :f.;c to see private enterprise forced out oi the Province." Mr. Charles Bentley was de- finitely in favour oi the action taken by the Council. but regret- ted that more of the general mem- bership of the Board were not in touch with the substance of the brief before,aubmiasion. Mr. Ralph Jenkins said that in his opinion the brief should be taken as from the Council, and not,the Board. Neither the Rail- way nor the Express gave the ser- vice in handling goods he had er- perienced by the bus line. Mr. Walter Cox asked if the Council had authority to make a submission without consulting the whole. Board. Secretary Waithen Gaudet in reply read the by-law governing such cases. "Our primary interest," Pr ident MacDonald said. "is to secure a superior service for the people of Pb and the Province. Everything was done on the evid- c Rail- way stressed that all they were doing was replacing" trains they are taking off. The lei was ask- ed for front the Board of,Tr-ads by the Legislative Committee, and it had we failed to submit one. we would have been open for criticism." The resolution ratifying the ac- tion oi the council was then put before the meeting and passed.- Illlldlnil remain just that-promises. and no more.

IMPORTANCE Continued from page 1 area and so it should reconcile it- self to a different role in the scr of things. economically and nationally. ' Essential Foundation What I -have just said does not. in any way, imply that such an area would be necessarily inferior to another. Quite on the contrary. it might well be that the apparent- ly less endowed district would, in reality. be more important. for who can say what ultimately constitutes the most desirable status oi any section. "If, for example. a district is fundamentally and esentially agri- cultural, then let it by all means be proud of the fact and work to- ward the end of perfecting itself along such lines in the certain be I place for more and better be a place fo more and better foodstuffsnnd that. in the last analysis, the soil and its produce is the foundation of our whole econ- omy.

This is particuar- iy true insofar as our American neighbours are concerned, who are now so loud in their praise of us. "In many respects. these en- comiums are well merited but we can admit to ourselves that there is mini-r room for improve so. let us organise ourselves, individ- ually and nationally. in such a way that we may be everything which others think we are and that our beloved country may deservedly attain the destiny which is un- doubtedly in store for it and that you here in Prince Edward Island and in Charlottetown will have the satisfaction of knowing that you have played your part nobly and well in the achievement of this glorious objective. Cronin: Ev While I have had occasion to visit several parts of the Mari- times since assuming the presi- dency of their largest ' ” ml crrter-prise some two and a half years ago," Mr. Poraythe said in his opening remarks. "this is the first time that I have had the privilege of visiting your fair Pro- vince. so I welcome the opportun- ity and wish to express my thanks for the invitation so graciously extended to me by your executive. "It is 1 great pleasure to be in Prince Edward Island - in the first place. for its own' sake. since it would be difficult to imagine a more charming or deiigh ful spot; and in the second place. - cause it is an important division of these historic provinces by the sea which, as a native son of Nova Bcotia. are very near and dear to my heart. - "It is especially gratifying to be in this lovely old capital city of Charlottetown where Canada, as a federal entity. first saw the light of day and where were laid the foundations upon which have since arisen a great national struc- ture which ls already the cynosure of many eyes.and which. as time goes on. will inevitably acquire greater significance and import- ance in the world around us. "Wise as were the Fathers of Confederation and great as was their foresight. even they could scarcely have visualised what has transpired since their day. so as they gale upon us this evening. from the vantage point of the world beyond, they must truly be thrill- ed and elated by the phenomenal developments which have occurred in the interval.” MAYO” MEIR continued from page i '0?
