Straits for aCentury of
Winters--Story Told '
By H. Smith, City.
Mail communication between Prince
Edward Island and the mainland is a
tsted the inhabitants of the Island
Province from its earliest settlement
down to the present time. For the
first thirty years of its history under
llritish rlile <'r until the beginning of
the nineteenth century, no mnilg
reached the Colony during the time
the navigation was closed, which was
usually three or four months in each
year. At all other seasons the mails
were few and far between. In this
period the transmission of letters
from England fo Halifax took six or
eight weeks, and as no separate mail
bag was made ilp for Prince Edward
Island, all letters directed there were
enclosed with the Halifax mail. These
letters were sent to the Colony as
opportunity offrred by any persons
willing to carry them and deliver
them to their owners. On this ac-
count letters were often mislaid or
lost, and their delivery was always
necessarily uncertain.
The first postmaster appointed in
Prince Edward Island was James
Robertson, whose advertisement ap-
peared in the "Royal American Ga-
zette and Weekly Intelligencer of the
Island of St. John," published in
Fllarlottetown on the 29th Septem-
her, l787, as follows: “His Excellen-
cy the Lieutenant Governor having
appointed the subscriber postmaster
he assures the public that the strict-
est attention will be paid .to all let-
ters he may receive. The post office,
which is kept in the same house ss
the printing office, will he -open for
the reception and delivery of letters
at all reasonable hours." The post-
master was the editor and proprietor
of the first newspaper publishezl in
the colony. The post office and the
printing. office, however, soon parted
company and James Robertszn wzs
superseded by Benlamin Chalirell Wh0
kept the Dost office in his own dwell-
ini: house. This building was easily
found among the scattered hoiiscs of
Charlottetown by a large van: in the
shape of a fish mounted high on it
pole above the roof which made A
most hideous noise as it was shaken
and turned around by the wind. The
post eiilce, which was a small build-
ing constructei of logs stood on the
north side of Winter Street between
Prince and Great George Streets-

world in which ideal conditions of
service existed. So will it no doubt
be till the end of time. The eye of the
present sees existing weaknesses and
defects, and for its own uses frequen-
tly takes the isolated and rare cases
of the past and generalfses on them.
From the point of view of faithful
service the world as a whole 'ia bot-

was in the sixteenth or earlier. There
is continuous growth. If this wsra _

All men are servants, servants 0(

to make men tyrants or loafers. Duty
is urging every man to bs a faithful
worker. The very word duty is _signi-
flcant. It means something due,-ai
debt owed some being. Duty is threa-
fold in its nature. There are natural
duties,-duties owed parents, children
or one's self; legal duties, duties
owed society; moral duties, duties
owed the Infinite. The truly dutiful
man is the one who combines all
three as a guide to conduct. Old
Adam was a splendid example of the
dutiful man. Shakespeare has produc-

They have women conductors on

capital of Chile. This was made nec-
essary by the late war, which book

not mix, but keep quits separate

Yet even the little girls at 7 or ii
years nre iiiiishcd coquettes. 'Their
eyes languidly observe every man and
boy in the plaza, and they take cars
that each shall receive a due share of
their smiles.
