Then the aeroplane service came into being and whatever the conditions of the ice in the Strhlta he mail service was maintained by aeroplane, but it would appear as if still greater service is desired. while it ls quite true that we should ever go forward, it would seem sometimes as though we do not ap- preciate the advantage that the 1g. ignd people enjoy today. A glance‘ over the following news item taken from a Guardian of twenty-four years ago should be sudlcient|to make us very thankful indeed for the gmprovcd hanspoi-tation and mgfl services o.‘ the present time.

JFURTIIER PARTICULARS - Tlic new Electric Power Plant dam at Valleyiield broke away at 1.15 a. m. on Wednesday and together with tons oi ice and water went crashing down stream. Huge cakes of ice propelled by rushing water, snapped oi! large trees. tore away 11P1d8es and did considerable dam- age. The dam, which was built in 1927 by the Montague Electric Co., was concrete faced with earth and rock filling. It was 58 feet thick at the bottom, tapering to 10 ft. thickness at top (water line). The structure gave way at each end and a. width oi about one hundred feet oi dam went down stream. This might have ended in a. terrible trag- edy. as a. large number of young people spent the evening skating on the ice just above the dam, and a1- though they were warned several times during the evening by the caretaker, they stayedAuntil about 11.30 o'clock. The concrete bridge above the dam and the fine con- crete and steel bridge built; last summer at Suthcrlands dam by Mr. Martin MacKiniion are badly dani- aged. Frost is claimed to have caused the disaster. ‘The Power Plant was taken over by the As- sociated Gas and Electric System in 1932-11. —ELDERLY RESIDENT OI‘ BE- DEQUE PASSES — There passed 1W0)’ on Thursday morning at the ripe agc of 82 years, Mr. William Crossman, of Central Bedeque.
