David Edward. 0. SI. R. Fecedlng Benediction, Father Edward spoke on the value of the Retreat as a means of personal unctification. During this time of withdrawal from mundane affairs. in earnest prayer and meditation, the retreatsnt is given. as it were. the opportunity of marshalling the forces of good for the soul, to com- bat the spirit of evil which is eter- nally waning against it. During the, period of Retreat. t.hree conferences were given daily by the Retreat Master, whose elo- quence and directness impressed on the hearts of his listeners the need of building up through prayer and good works, sanctifying grace in the life of the souls. making it. as it were, the foundation from which all spiritual values radiate. Many beautiful illustrations of God's great love for suffering hu- manity during His life on earth were depicted by the Reverend speaker. So many blessings have baen conferred on humanity bv the creator that we should live our lives in thanksgiving and in rep- aration lor our offenses and in- gratitude. Meditating on this with faith and hope. the failures of the past do not seem such a cause of u- couragement. nor do the suf- ferings and difficulties of the pre- sent appear so insurmountable. Father Edward counselled re- treatants to be vigilant. especially in their own families. in combat- ting such insidious movements as materialism, which wars against spiritual values; rationalism, or liv- ing according to reason. and fail- ure to accept God's revelations: naturalism, a forgetfulness of the supernatural character of life. At the closing conference on Sunday evening. the Reverend Fa- ther oommended the retreatants fo. the fervor with which they had canted out the spiritual exer- cises. He impressed on them the need of ever keeping in mind, and putting into practice in everyday life, the principles of right living. Enter. he said. into the spirit of the Holy Year with greater devo- tion so that greater spiritual stat- ure may be attained. Father Edward then imparted the papal blessing, which was fol- lowed by Benediction of the Bless- ed Sacrament. The beauty of the altar was enhanced with lights and flowers. and the Academy choir rendered lovely hymns during the morning and evening services. Fol- lowing the closing the appreciation and gratitude of the retreatants was fitting-ly expressed to Rever- end Father Edward for the spirit- ual aid he had siven them through his inspiring counsel. This was extended to Reverend Mother Superior and sisters of the Acad- emy for the privilege of holdlnz the Retreat in Notre Dame. and for the cordial hospitality and kindly thought for the comfort 0 all who were in attendance- Incidentally, the first retreat for women. sponsored by the Catholic women's League, was held in Notre Dame in 1936. and the suc- eess and growth of the movement are due in a great measure to the kindness and co-operation of the Reverend SuP0l'101'5 Ind 51"'"9- The retreat was organized by the Provincial convener, Mrs. Em- est Rossiter, and her commlttex Police Recover Body from River MONTREAL.

Consumption Of Rubber Increased O'I'l'AWA., July M--(CP)-Com sumpiion pf rubber increased Saix per cent in May, the Bureau of Statistics reported today. Total for the month amounted to 14.800900 pounds compared with 5,042,200 in April. Natural rubber consumption increased to 0,005,000 pounds from 7.700.000; synthetic to Island Odds And Ends we take it too much for granted that Europe is behind the New World in every respect. Such an as- sumption is wide of the mark in many cases. For instance. while the housewives of Canada and the United States are having much trouble in obtaining and holding domestic help, Sweden by wise leg- islation seems to have solved the problem. The Swedish parliament passed a bill sometime,ago called the day Act. which gives people in domestic employment recognized rights as to hours and wages, and protects them against exploitation. Domestics are paid at the rate of seventy-five (75) cents per day. No domestic is required to work beyond seven o'clock in the even- ing, and is given one-half day of! each week commencing at 2 p. in. They are also entitled to every sec- ond Sunday. Paid holidays are allowed after a period of twelve (12) month's ser- vice at the rate of one day for each calendar month worked. Younger persons are entitled to an addit- ional half day for each month of service, if at the beginning of the month they are under eighteen years of age. The tune of taking holidays is fixed by the employer who must inform the employee at least fourteen (14) days in advance. Annual holidays are girantcdl for one continuous period, unless agreement to the contrary has been reached. In general. these doing domestic work get fifteen (15) days annual holidays. eon Holiday compensation is also payable. Employees paid at time rates reckoned by the week or a longer unit of time. are entitled for the period of the holidays to their normal wages. Even in Canada the day when domestic help could be hired for extremely low wages, to work long hours is gone by. Social legislation such as. Family Allowances has given the poorest of folk. enough independence to demand reasonable wages . and reasonable hours of work. People who have realized that things are not as they used to be. and accept the fact: can still get domestic help and keep it. They treat their help with consideration and kindness and are rewarded for their thoughtfulness. 0 0 0 The country horse race still holds its appeal for Wednesday half holiday folk. Covehead drew a big gate for its races last week and the patrons had no complaints about the four race card which was presented. Fast time, driving fin- ishes, good weather all helped to give pleasure to people in stands and paddock. "Doug" MacL'eod race-track fol- lower and official for many years was the starting Judge. 1-le hand- led the four classes, some quite large with good judgement and kept the programme moving smart- ly throughout the afternoon. All four classes with an extra heat thrown in for good measure. were completed around -six o'clock. Mar.

This seems to make. it unanimous. O I "Too little and too late" is dos- criptive of American reverses in Korea to the present date. It has always been so with non-military democracies like the U. S. Pushed into wars against their will, they find themselves outnumbered out-' gunned, and on the losing and- for a while. Twice the Germans. superbly ready have practically mopped up all opposition-in 1914 and 1939, only to be crushed by aroused civ- ilians wearing miiitary garb. The old act is being repeated once more. The Russian controlled Koreans are winning battles all along the line. They may win more but they will lose their war just as soon as the might and power of America begins to build up in the battle area. war production will count in the end and the Yanks are clearly masters in this field. Members of Eastern Kings Board of Trade, have noted that Souris and vicinity although favored with good beaches. good fishing and other tourist attractions, has no tourist cabins. At their next month- ly meeting in August, ways and means of having modern cabins built will be discussed-. For the benefit of those favoring the construction of cabins, the popularity of those erected at Mur- ray River may be cited. Situated on the upper reaches of Murray River, these cabins are occupied from May to September, and many people are turned away every day. There is no reason why Bourls or Chepstow or Rollo Bay people could not operate cabins with equal profit to themselves and do the public service at the same time. The person who first used the phrase "The Million Acre Farm" describing our little Province. like the Fathers of Confederation did a better job than he knew. Go where you will at this season of the year, and you cannot escape the beauty of growing crops. the delight of blue seas under summer skies, and the orderly trimness of fine form houses and out-bulld- ings. , Up at Greenwich for instance on the north bank of St. Peters Bay, there stretches one of the finest pieces of farm counry on the Is- land. There you will find the Mcbarens, the Sutheriands, the -Rattrays, all good farmers living in houses which overlook the sea. Greenwich is not mentioned often as one of the Islands beauty spots. and this is somewhat surprising. Domestic servant's Act, and Koil-. glass.

It might be said that "Bill" loved all compet- itive sports but. that he had a special place in his heart for hock- ey. He was the quiet type who studied a. game or a race from start to finish and formed his own opin- ion as to criticism or praise. He enjoyed watching competition and got equal satisfaction out of dis- cussing a teams ability or the per- formance of a horse, long after the game or race was over. His love of sport was sincere and crowded out any toleration of unfair tactics either by the side he favored. or the one he op- posed-. In his unassuming way he was an asset to local sport, and in the bargain a very fine citizen, whose friendship was valued and will be missed by hundreds of Is- lenders.
