Gives Report On Ice Patrol Three ships have sailed through -the steamer track to the St. Lew- rence River and another was sell- mg through yesterday morning, re- ported Chief officer Angus Brown last night following another ice survey for the Department of Transport. '1‘he.fourth ship. an Italian ves- sel tiie Capo Anne, was having trouble getting through the loo. chief officer Brown expressed eur- pcrise that the other three got through as the North East winds during the storm brought a lot of heavy ice through the Strait of Belle Isle into this area. The ice extends well out to sea reaching to within 30 miles of Cable island. The strait of Canon is still blocked solid and heavy ice lies off the entrance of Louisburg Harbour. A southerly wind might close Louisburg up. Fog conditions made it a poor day for patrolling. Conditions were had over the Northumberlend Strait but he believed that there was little or no change from the prcvious 24 hours. on the flight he noticed four rishing trawlers lying off canso. By their lack of action he believed mg were undecided about whe- ther or not they should. move out.

The main part of the program was a most educational and in- spirational debate in which the participants were Lorne MacDon- ald. Ivan Dowling. Mark McGui- gan and Wilfred Driscoll. Those are the same 5. D. U. students who brought so much honour to this Province in the meant Canadian intercollegiate oratorical competi- tion. The subiect of their de- bate was “Rasolved that commun- istic activities should be outlawed in Canada." The four eimkerl were introduced by .lIroiessor Outstanding Recital Given At P.VI.G. flail Lest evening at the Prince of Wales College auditorium, ' an audience of some two hundred .people were privileged to hear an outstanding recital by Susanna Brenton. L. Mus.. pianist. and Gwynnoth Patterson. meuo-so- prano. both pupils of Miss Lillian McKenzie. Mus. Bac., who also acted as accompanist. . In a well chosen program which hated for almost two hours, the artists each showed their indi- vidusl mastery of music. and suc- ceeded in holding the audience en- thralled without an intermission. Although Miss Brenton appear- ed a little nervous at first. she quickly overcame it and lost her- self in her interpretation of some of the most difficult piano solos heard in the city for some time. The most ambitious of these was Beethoven's Sonata in E‘. Minor, and Miss Brenton played the three movements without a pause. in it- self this would be an accomplis‘- meat, as the number lasts for ap- proximately twenty-five minutes. Min Brenton, however, gave the selection a beauty of feeling even throughout the more intricate passages which held the audience through to the end. One other selection by Miss Brenton which was outstanding was her Chopin's “Fantasia Im- promptu." seeming to love the music herself, she brought out the true beauty of this composition and gave it a rippling quality which is Chopin at his best. Displaying a voice of unusual beauty and range, Mrs. Patterson combined this talent with an ex- traordinary stage personality which charmed the audience completely. i-ler voice, though pleasingly res- onant in the lower register, has not the unpleasant heavineu sometimes found in mezzo-so- pranos. it was especially lovely when heard in the soft high notes which Mrs. Patterson accomplished with ease. Enjoying her singing to the utmost. she proved to be at her best in the Aria “Mon coeur s'ouv're a te voix", from Saint- Seens' “Samson et Delilah". This number allowed her to show her capacity for feeling and inter- pretation. and proved that a talent for acting helps considerably in a singer's career. It is hoped that these artists will appear before the public again and again. and Miss McKenzie is to be ...... ended on arranging for the music lovers oi the Province to hear talent such as these artists possess. Programme for the evening was as follows: The Harmonious Blacksmith (Handel); Sonata in F. Minor. Opus 57 (Bcethoven)—Mios Brenton. _ The Blacksmith (Brahms); May- Nigh-t (Brahms); Arie, Mon coeur s'ouvre a is voix (Saint-Sachs)- Mrs. Patterson. Etude, Opus 25.

They were enthusiastic in their praise of the farmers and agri- cultural officials of the Province in achieving such a reputation for Island products throughout Can- ada and in parts of the United States. Mr. Bracken has visited here on several occasions as Conservative leader. This time. however. he was surprised to run into another "tail-end of winter." He was somewhat disappointed as the muddy conditions will prevent them from moving around as free- ly as they would wish. He expressed his belief that the Island has a bright future as an agricultural Province, and that the way to further success lies in concentrating on the maintenance of the highest standards of live- stock and field production.

Eggs and Poultry The egg market has remained steady for the past two weeks. Pro- duction of eggs is increasing but is how at lower levels than for the same period last year. There is a decline in the quality of receipts. It is believed this is due to not feeding a balanced ration or re-' auction in quantity due to the high price of feed couplcn with the low price of eggs.

According to reports from cream- ery operators, there is a temI>Ol'E1'.V shortage of butter in some areas in the Province of New Brunswick. but this condition may be entirely due to faulty distribution. It is also reported that butter sales prior to the holiday season were excellent and as far as -we can judge in this Province also, there are orders coming in at the present time to some creameries which cannot at present be filled. These orders are. of course. for print butter. Production is increasing fairly rapidly in the southern and west.- em areas of New Brunswick and very soon some creamerles will be sole to supply the current demand in their respective areas in that province. The price of butter on the char- lottetown market has not changed within the past week and as 1031! as the price is maintained at the officially reported levels in the provinces of New Brunswick and Nova scotia. there is not likely to be much change in the Charlotte- town price.
