The worship period. in charge of Mrs. H. E. D. Aahford. opened by singing hymn 500, "Take Time To Be I-loly." followed by the read- in-g of the beautiful 21st chapter of Revelations. Mrs. Anhford took for her meditation the Biography of Florence Nightingale, and her theme "Difficulty in Getting Start- ed". Florence Nightingale was 17 years of age when she heard the definite call from God to become a nurse and thus lead the way for many Ohrlstian nurses to train. At that time the work was a very degraded one and her wealthy parents were strongly op- posed to her wish. She was 31 years of age before she finally suc- ceeded in gaining her parents con- sent nnd over come "lite difficulty in getting started." From this theme, Mrs. Aztbfcrd said we should all, especially as we grow older. learn the lesson-never to say "no" to youth. before thinking their .proposition.s over very seriously, from every angle - their an-gie. our own angle and God's angle.

All Time High In Rail Shipments During January A new all-time high in carlood sitipntonts out of Prince Edward Island was established in me month of January this year, it was revealed in export figures re- leased here yesterday by officials of the Canadian National Rail- ways. Last month a total of 2.612 loaded cars of Island products were ferried between Borden and Torrnentine during the 31-day period. This was n jump of 553 cars over the total exports in Jan- uary 1950 which was also a heavy month of shipments. Potato shipments during the month amounted to 1.32 car- loads. The bounce was made up of various Island products includ- ing. pulpwood. turnips. fish. live- stock and canned goods. Live- stock shipments were particularly heavy. This flemendous volume of pro- ducts was moved deqrito several days of adverse weather during which the railway continued to keep carloatls rolling. GLASGOW.

The arrangements for the affair were handled by Red and White's business manager, Mark MacGuigan, to whom much credit is due for a successful evening's en- tertainment. as he puts it, both "so- cially and financially." Earlier Wednesday evening, there was held in title Blue Room of the Old Spain the second nnrvual ban- quet of the graduating class of 1062. The idea of I class banquet was instituted last year in an of- fort to bring the members of this 01558 together in an atmosphere where a. spirit. of fellowship and loyalty. which is a characteristic of every class at S.D.U., could be clearly pointed out as a reality and a significant part of college life.

Last Friday evening, the sen- ior basketball team lengthened its league lead at the expense of the R.C.A.P'. by trimming the Air- metn 41-30. Tonight, the Saints will try to make it five straight victor- ies slnoe the opening of the league when they meet Prince of Wales in the latter's auditorium. A hastily banded together group of juvenile basketball players from the College lent encouragement to that phase of the sport wthen they edged the Y.M.C.A. Juveniles 21-26 in an exhibition game in Charlottetown last Saturday. students at the College were treat- ed to 5 look at the intercollegiate hockey team in action when it met title East Royalty Royal: in- an ex- hibition game in the College rink on Monday evening. Although the Saints were toppled '1-4 by the rugged and more experienced Royals, their performance give no cause fvr pessimism amonc their backers. The game. in the style which is prevalent, was one of the roughest ever played at at. D-.m- stan's. The Saints forced their op- ponents to come from behind on two occasions before they acknow- ledged defeat. C O 0 Last week, shortly after this col- umn had been sent in to the Guard- ian of the Gulf. we learned that Rlev. P'.L. Cm, moderawr of the M. I. D. L. had chosen the four de- baters who will represent st. Dust- etan's in int " ' litm- agtslnst st. Mary's college of Kal- lfax and Acadia Unlvtrsity of Wolf- ville on St. Valentine's day, It is significant that two of Father Cass' four choices are members of the Sophomore class. which had a total of seventeen members trying out for positions at the intercollegiate teams. The sophomore debaters are Cyril Mclsaso and Robert Croken, while the other two. Allan MacDon- aid and Walter Reid, are members wk n different convention fortmegiristo frank.-ourgtrla do not smoke anyway -- which is no more useful than -noklng. The resolution of the girls to break with this convention for forty days would not only be a most significant not of self-abnegation. but at the some time an act of htnnilintion quite in keeping with the Passion of our Lord. The convention to which we refer is that of dnublng I waxy ointment on the lips in an attempt to improve on the work of Almighty God. To break it, the girls would have to give up painting their lips with that popular cosmetic known as lipstick. O O C It has been suggested by more than one keen observer that the ladies of the world have been duped by high-pressure advertising of manufacturers into believing that paint is an aid to true beauty. when one does think it over, it does ep- pear foolish to think that the work of God can be improved upon. No one would dare try to improve upon the beauty of a rose by painting it; but apparently someone has convinced the ladies that a cheap ointmmt, which easily smears, can produce an artificial beauty better than the natural beauty given them by their all-wise Creator. No offence should be taken by girls. on whom we depend very much to help make the world go round. It is true that most of us are bound by foolish octnventlons which really retard true progress. We feel that such a penance on the part of our coeds would be greatly admired both on and off the campus, and in addition. would be the means cf bringing the quemon of the value of cosmetics to the gt. tcntlon of many thoughtful people. We can think of no more apt re- pmlnder of the futility of trying to !m'DI'0'Ve upon nature than the last verses of Joyce K11mer's l.m.n-lortal poem.

Offices: rAGE 'rtvE Condition of Highways Now Much Improved It was malouneed last eveninz that paved highways throughout the Province are pretty well clear of ice. except in the shaded IIOIS. Travelling on grlvel roads is also reported to be good. Freak weather which hcd rang- ed from 16 degrees below zero three days ago to 47 above yester- day morning, however. had all modes of transportation tied up curly yesterday. Hlmwsys which had I. tlh.-in coating of snow on their surfaces were turned to ice as one-half inch of rain fell during Thursday night. Cars and trucks t-rs-velltng in and around the city yesterday morning were often abandoned when hills, too icy to-traverse. were encountered. Just outside of Char- lottetown, on the North River Road. cars waited for fine government sander before attempting hills. rather than stiffer the fate of those who had attempted to continue on their way and slipped into the ditch. Maritime Central Airways plsrlcs had been grounded since Wednes- day due to icy runways but re- sumed their normal schedule yes- terday afternoon. Island Motor Transport buses were also taken off the road, but as the tempera- ture rose towards noon travelling conditions were greatly improved and they resumed their schedule.

The advent of the holy season of Lent, which recalls to our minds the most tlemend -us and awful event in the history of the world. is always a topic od considerable in- terest to students, even before Ash Wednesday. This year is no excep- tlcn. Already resolutions to do pen- ance through acts of sdli-obnegation and humiliation are being discuss- cd ithrough the corridors and many are the suggestions as to what we should do at this time of particu- lar mortification.

How- ever. becsuse they have to do with two of the many gsenseless conven- tions which peoplgfoliow slavishly these days. we think it is worth- while to pass them on. Some people consider these particular conven- tions useless, if not downright harmful. ugly, distasteful. and a waste of time. enersy. and money. which could be put to much more profitable use.. For the boys we suggest that they deny themse ves participation in the extensively followed ccnvention of smoking tobacco. s time, money, and energy. that have been wasted in this useless habit would be im- possible to reckon. but it certainly is enonnous. The and feet of it is that a large number of people have acquired the habit because of the ridiculous notion that it in fashion- able to make. In addition to deny- of charity. big themselves the use of tobacco. we should suggest that the money saved be contributed to some work DRAPERY FABRICS. in the House Furnishing Sections of the Furn- iture Departments of both the Charlottetown and the Summerside Stores.
