Many friends and relatives were saddened when it became known that on Friday. May 18th, there passed away yery suddenly in the Prince Edward Island Hospital, John Spencer. Sr.. or Jack as he was familiarly called. It is difficult to realize that 3 man so active should be called away so suddenly. His happy per-. sonality won him many friends and he was respected by young and old alike. Hisiuneral was held from St. v Paul's Anglican Church, Char- lottetown on Sunday. May 20th, and was largely attended. The services at the church and grave were conducted by the Rev. Can- non J. T. lbbott. The pail bearers were: the Hon. George D. De Blois. H. E. Miller, Sr..

P.F..l. It will be ilirected by Rev. .l.B. Wilson of Trurb. N.S. who is the Mari- time United Baptist Christian Ed- ucation field secrctwy. The camp promises to be inter- esting, educational and rewarding. The committee hopes and feels that many young people from all parts of the Island will be in at- tendance to share in the activities. including the three study and three leadership periods. the Sunday morning sunrise service, the daily private and group devotions and the three camp fire services. Highlighting the recreation act- ivities will be three periods of swimming with competent leaders. a hike, volleyball tournament and a proposed softball series to de- clare a camp championship. in ad- dition to the campfire sing songs and other games.

The Charlottetown Un- ,THtlilGllTSMl-'0ll (Continued from page 3) day. Our age encourages a nar- row idea of human dignity. It has forgotten that there is a great- er human dignity and a greater freedom in rightful discipline and c” edience to authority than in any egocentric sell-assertion. MAN ENNOBLED The way of self-discipline is the only road to true freedom. Sub- gmisslon to truth and to law does not degrade man. but cnnobles him. Groi .h of personality depends on it. It is like a biologizal nec- essity. It is a monstrous growth in all directions. Man is not less free. but more free. more him- self. in recognizing the conditions of his being as a creature. The recognition of the true Idea of personality is the more nec- essary at a time when the organ- ization of society at every level tends to submerge the person. More and more. persons are being grouped and reduced to anony- mity. But every human creature that exists. exists first of all in h': own right. The personality is something pos- itive. Recognition of it will restore self-respect and respect for others. For one may be quite poor. quite powerless. unlearned and unknown. without one's personality suffering the slightest diminution.

What will it cost if one is not built? And remember, Confed- eration promised "Continuous and adequate communication." ttThere is now a ferry service which has had a sharp increase in traffic. In 1947. 37,000 cars made the passage. The following annual returns show the figure growing steadily. 46.000. 54.000, 64,000, '17.- 000. 88.000. 103.000. 104.000. and in- l955 123.000. As the traffic increas- es the costs mount steeply and the Federal Government carries the deficit. in 1940 when they mov- ed some 33,000 cars the deficit was 3400.000. Last year it jumped four times to ”'.600.000. and these are operating deficits only. "if you anticipate the present rate of growth to continue. and all signs point that way. there will be an annual deficit in 1962 lip- wards of 32,000,630. But that's not all. If one takes a reasonable de preciation for ferry and the port facilities at either end an annual charge in 1962 approaching 33.000.- 000 is prob:.bly. Further. ferry fac- ilitles a-e badly strapped, and a demand for a new ferry, which will probably be required. might well run to sl0.000.000 outlay The ”Bluenose" for Yarmouth cost 37,000,000. The ferries for North- timberland Strait must be rugged to contend with ice. DUTCH CAUSEWAYS "One final look at the cost phase. Government money today is reck- oned about lilh percent.

I've seen eyes light up and faces shine with hope when the subject is just mentioned.

And. too it would help the quick despatch of lobsters and fillets in the fishing industry. the Islands Number Two industry. ENGINEERING "What is the engineering picture. "Of the 200 feet at Canso 130 feet was clear water and 70 feet soupy silt. Valuable lessons were learned. The first was. and it may seem patent, the great press of rock makes dredging unnecessary. Now. since construction. has there been no settlement. The second. was that the dumping, not invol- ved and expensive, placing of rock to build up :1 'ope worked well. This was a departure from engin- eering methods. Generally speak- ing the ratio of horizontal base to rise in height is 1.1". "The saving grace in this whole Causeway proposition is the lucky fact that Northumberland Strait is a shallow body of water. hav- ing an average depth of 60 feet with the deepest only 85 feet. "It might be noted R.W. Mac- Colough of the Department of Highways of Nova Scotia did much pioneer work at Barrinizton Pas- sage Causeway. He was one of the champions who successfu"y ur- god Causeway over Bridge. when some other experts pushed for a bridge. "on! of the amazing things about Canso in the fact that mighty job. which will cost about 22.000- 000. was completed very 'largely by just fourteen tnicks capable of carrying 35 tons each. one electric shovel. one bull dozer and a crew of 200 men. THE ROCK PROBLEM "Let's go back to the Prince Edward Island Proposal. Where is the rock? And what is the cost of moving it? At Canso it cost s ' .- ”Th1l mllhl-do the trick, fftlie 0933 01 letting at it would not be 100 hill: and there in enough of it. "Let's assume stone is found four miles from the Strait m 85 ton truck: can move it easily and the chances for n Causeway would be very. very bright. And bright too up to ten miles. Above ten 'milu at 5 cents per ton mile the cost is rising at a rate that would re- move the plan out of a paying bracket. TIDAL MOVEMENT "Of the 850,000,000 price tag. at the moment. f'" would cost 340,- 000.000. with the remaining 010,- C30;000 for navigation locks and lockgates. a railway, footpath and a road. It would be as feet above low tide. in feet above high tide. Some thinking. at the moment, is that a drawbridge - cheaper - i-nth. er than locks must suffice. At the proposed Causeway site another lucky circumstanct is that the tides which sweep through North- umberland Strait go around the Island from either end and at this point they tend to converge so there would be'no strong pull of tide in either direction. "Great quantities of drift Ice, however, appear in winter in the Straits but the proponents say with the Causeway checking current, such current there is would be sharply decreased. allowing freez- ing along either side of the Cause- way which would form a cushion for the drift ice t t might later move there. "The Causeway would run par- allel and slightly north of the pre- sent ferry run from Borden to Port Jouramaln. Itis anticipated the earliest completion date that could be anticipated in 1982. LOBSTER FISIIERY "Flshi is the second industry in the Province and the Cause- way effect on fisherici is being closely studied. An official in the Department of Fisheries says that lobsters would be no problem for they are largely local in their char..:ter. This fishery official. probably In love with his job. as well as fish generally. sold "Fish are as smart as people. and if GET J T Dependable Heating You will witha Fairbanks-Mono Oil Fired Furnace.
