UHARLOTTETOWN, ‘TUESDAY, OCTOBER 2s, 124s ll Service Long Overdue An important meeting has been called 10' this evening by the Charlottetown Boprd of Trade, at which consideration will be given l0 drafting- a brief urging the need of an auxrliofY vehicle ferry for the Borden-Tormentine Service- Representstives of the Councils of other‘ lsloiid Boards cf Trade will be present, and invitations have been extended as well to Premier Jones, our Federal representatives in the i-louse of Com- mons and Senate, 0nd ll‘? _P'°5'd°"l5 °l the Farmers and Fisheries Federations. _ lt is hoped by co-ordinated effort to impress upon the Dominion Government the rlBCeWllY l“ an auxiliary service, which should be in operation by next summer. This matter has already. been brought forcibly to the attention of the Minister of Transocrt, bzth on the floor of Parliament and in a letter, dated last M0)‘, bY plF-lllft" Jones in which the lack of adequate facilities for truck service between Prince Edward liloiid and the mainland via Borden was described as being seriously detrimental both to our inter- provincial trade and to the shipment 0f numofolfi perishable products to the United States. _ Premier Jones pointed out to the Minister in his letter that a boat suitable for this service, and capable of carrying fifty motor vehicles, was available at a ready-to-run cost of approximately $125,000. "lf a small wooden dock were erected at Borden and at Tormentine for the docking of this boat, which draws only 9 feet of water," the Premier wrote, "l believe it could be in operation in the late summer as l understand it is avail- able immediately to go into dry dock Wlilflli would take about six or eight weeks llhflll prob- ability. l would suggest that immediately an investigation of the proposed boat be made; that a grant be placed in the estimates for this work, and that a contract be given at Borden and Tor- mentine for the building of suitable docks and possibly sorrle light dredging which might have to be carried on." The Premier reminded the Minister in his let- ter of an interview some six or eight years ago, at which all tho high officials at Ottawa were present, when it was announced that an auxil- iary boat service would be provided at Borden "as soon as possible." The Premier's efforts last May proved un- availing, notwithstanding that ho declared_it to be "a matter which is of tho greatest interest to the people of Prince Edward Island and pos- sibly is the livest question which we have to face at the present time." It is high time, therefore, that some concerted action was being taken to stir things up at Ottawa. Added to the argu- ments presented in Premier Jones’ letter to the Transport Minister, is the fact that railway rates have been boosted 21 percent with the prospect of another rates boost in the offing. increased truck transportation facilities have became more necessary and important than ever. This is a non-political issue which should have the support of all concerned in the welfare of our farmers, fishermen, shippers and merchants generally. “Bluenose" Memorial A fine memorial to the famous schooner Bluenose has been prepared by Mr. Andrew Merkel, retired Maritime superintendent of~Can- adian Press, and Photographer Wallace R. Mac- Askill in an attractively printed and illustrated volume issued by the Ryerson Press. An unfor- gettable picture of the proud queen of the North Atlantic fishing fleets is given here by two first- class craftsmen in their respective fields. By pen and camera they tell how the Bluenose was launched amid great festivities from the Lunen- burg shipyards, of her exciting encounters with the Elsie, the Henry Ford, the Columbi , the Haligonian and the Gertrude L. Thebaud, until the day when she neared her finish line, breaking her back on a ledge off Haiti, the favorite hunt- ing ground of Nova Scotia sea farers. Mr. Merkel, incidentally, is the author of two stir- ring books of poetry, Tallahassee and The Order of Good Cheer. Both photographer and author are boating members of the Royal Nova Scotia Yacht Squadron, and the result of their collabo- ration has quite evidently been a labour of love.

I D i W Ontario and Saskatchewan have spoken, or rather voted once more on Federal issues, and it is for the new, or expiring, Federal Govern- ment to act accordingly. Though neither con- stituency of itself is of any prime importance, each assumed such from the fact that one was the stamping ground of the new Secretary of State for External Affairs, and the other from the fact that its previous representative re- signed to become Liberal leader of his province. ‘k i "It i‘ The civilized world is slowly but surely divid- ing itself into two categories, Christian Domorcats and Communist totalitarianists.

The new Liberal leader in Alberta, Mr. J. Harper Prowse is outstandingly in favor of com- pulsory military lraining. He says every youth reaching the age of eighteen should have at least one year in the army. They would re- ceive four months’ basic training, followed by eight months in an arm of the service to which they would be allocated on the basis of intelli- gence and aptitude tests. On discharge at the end of the year, trainees would spend four years in reserve training, followed by further periods in a second-line reserve if necessary. Mr. Prowse estimated the scheme would require about 45,000 instructors and would cost approximately $500,000,000. The cost might seem prohibitive, he said, but there was no inexpensive road to peace. An Ashern (Manitoba) farmer is feeling some- what confused these days. "This spring when we received our R.O.P. coclierels from tho hat- - chery," he writes to D. C. Foster, Poultry Spe- cialist of the Manitoba Department of Agricul- ture, "they had enclosed 12 Leghorn cockorols as travelling companions." One of these, ho continues, turned out to be a pullet and started laying eggs near the end of July. By mid-August it had produced about a dozen eggs. However, a future of laying eggs did not oppoal to this little feathered domestic. Taking no more than two or three days to change its sex, it blossom- e ed into a full-feathered cockerol and proceeded to crow obzut it. Commenting upon tho phono- menon, Mr. Foster states, "l linoiv of at least reversed it: sex and developed a’ heavy male comb and produced inalo feathers.

From two of hls messmates who were college men he borrowed books. end in every spare moment applied himself to study. Hls notebooks were models of riestrieas, indeed, lt was the ord- erly chnriscter of hls notes which first attracted Capt. Owen's nt- tentlon. Leaving active service aboard ship was not relished by Beyfleld at the time but he could look back later and see that hls meeting Owen at Quebec had been the first step ln hls advancement, for he ended hls naval career as an admiral. "When Capt. Owen returned \o England ln 1816, Bayfleld was made Admiralty surveyor. For nine years thereafter he was engaged continu- ously on the surveys of the Greet Lakes, two years on Lake Erie, four on Lake Huron, and three on Lake Superior. The excellence of his work during this pioneer period of the lakes survey has aroused the admiration of every man who has fpllawed him ln like duties. No small part of the operations had. of necessity, to be done lri the winter, holes being chopped through the ice in order to determine depths. The hardships of such n life were considerable but do not appear to have adversely affected Bisyfleld, for lie lived to be ninety years of age. Captain J. G. Boulton, "who at a later- date resurveyed many of the some waters, has sold of him: ‘The Admiralty Survey Service has produced good men from Captain Cook onwards, but I doubt wheth- er the British navy has ever pro- duced so gifted and zealous is sur- veyor as Hayfield?’ Bisyfleld‘: charts, based upon hls work during the 1820's, were the sole nlds of their kind available to mariners until well toward the B middle of the century."
