Mr. Howard told the boys that they must expect to have ' the question asked them, "What is the Church Doing?" They could conscientiously answer it by say- ing that the Church is doing more for the moral and spiritual wel- fare of the world than any other agency. The Church might not be perfect but that was because its message to the world was bigger than its messengers. The Church was doing many things in its efforts to make a better world. It was stimulating straight thinking; it was helping peopfe to understand themselves; and it was helping to inculcate in the minds of men the idea of one world.

It was at the old Cross Keys Inn, corner of Queen and Dorchester Streets, that St. John's Lodge was formed on Oct. l9, 1797. The pro- prletor, Alexander Richardson, was a mgmber of the Order.

He tvas Master of the Lodge from 180i tol 1805 and presentedd the Lodge xvlthl a Bible which is still in its posses- slon. When the Lodge was formed here, the Island's population was 4,500. The total ‘exports for that year 1797 consisted of 887 black cattle; 480 hogs; 400 bushels of wheat; 1.200 bushels of barley? 3.000 bushels of outs; 1,200 bushels of potatoes; and 1,200 pelts. , at.

Alex Knox, man- ager of the Eastern Trust Com- pany, at a. recent meeting -of the Provincial Life Underwriters As- sociatlon: “I propose to talk for e. short time this afternoon on succession duties and. how they are affected by the Dominion-Provincial agree- ment. , "Under the Dominion-Provincial agreement which was ratified at the last meeting of the Legisla- ture, the Province discontinued the assessment of estates for Pro- vincial succession duty and left the field of succession duty en- tirely to the Dominion Govern- ment. This agreement took ef- fect as of 1st April i947, and is good for five years. "The Dominion Government doubled the rates of succession duty as of lst January, i947, but agreed to allow as a deduction from any succession duty one half of the duty payable to them or the Provincial succession duty — whichever is the lesser. "The Dominion Government al- lows an exemption of $20,000 if the_ estate passes to a widow, with $5,000 for each child provided it does not benefit as a result of the death of the deceased where- as the Province of Prince Edward Island Succession Duty Act makes no exemption on similar lines. Saving To Estates "I do not know if any of the members of the Legislature ever took the occasion to work out the succession duty payable on an av- erage estate, and to see whether or not the Province was getting a good deal in this particular field. There is no doubt in my mind that by having only one succession duty to pay in Prince Edward Island that a saving is being made by estates of persons who died on or after the 1st April, 1947. "It is my understanding that seven Provinces have ratified their agreements with the Dominion Government. This leaves only the Province of Quebec and On- tario outside the fold and they have as yet shown no inclination to enter into the agreement with the Dominion Government. "As I said before, the object of my talk is to give you the ef- fect of the agreement particular- ly in this Province for succession duty. For the purpose f com- parison, it is my intentio to take an estate of an aggregate value of $100,000, with $50,000 passing to the widow and $25,000 to two children over 18 years of age- Domlnion Suecrsr-iiln Duty - widow's share-AS’; - 8.9’; -l1.8% on $30,000 Children's share-iii)’; - 4,99; -9.s"+ on $25,000 -$2.450.00 Amount for 2 children 3,540.00 4,900.00 $5,440.00 Prince Edward Island Duty widow's share-IO"? on $50,000 $5,000.00 Children's share-iv}. on $25,000 ~$2,500.00 Amount for 2 children’ 5,000.00 $10,000.00 “If the deceased died, let us say. on January 2, 1947, the Dom- inion Government would allow as a deduction one-half of the tax payable to them or the Provin- cial TBX-—\\'i‘llCl‘i€V€I‘ is the lesser. Taking the estate I l-lave just mentioned, the Dominion Gov- ernment duty is $8,440.00. so that they lvould allow a deduction of $4,220.00, whereas . the Provincial Duty is $10,000.00, which. in ef- fect. means that the succession duty payable on an estate of $100,- 000.00 passing as I have mention- ed would be $14,220.00, ' “Since the ratification of the agreement between the Province and the Dominion, there is only one succession duty payable on estates where the deceased died on or after the 1st April, 1947, and that. to the-Dominion Gov- ernment. Therefore, the amount of succession duty payable on an estate of $100,000.00 passing 50% to the widow and 25% each to twol children over 1B years would be $8,440.00 - a saving to the estate of $5,700.00. Work Simplified "The work of filing succession duty returns in other Provinces has been simplified and the cf- fect of the Dominion-Provincial agreement is that where securi- ties or other investments have sltus in any Province which has concluded the agreement with the Dominion Government, it will not be necessary to file in that parti- cular provlncc, and the Dominion Succession Duty Consent to Transfer will be sufficient to effect transmission of any secur- lty or investment in the Pro- vince concerned. "As the Provinces of Quebec and Ontario have not concluded an agreement with the Dominion Government, it would be neces- sary for anyone holding secur- ities or investments with sltus in either of these two Provinces to still file Provincial succession duty returns and to pay any tax assessed. There would be allow- ed as a deduction the succession duties payable to these Provinces lf they did not amount to more than one-half of the Dominion succession duty payable. "Of course the comparative fig- ures I have just mentioned have been taken on an estate whichgjive year period." iller finger-tip veil was of age g Improving Potato Storage Facilities At Railway Wharf For the past tines weeks, the Dominion Department of Public Works have been carrying out ex- tensive work in the lmgproving of facilities for storage purposes at the Government potato shed lo- cated on the Rail-way wharf. Tllle work, which is being carried nut by day labour under the dir- ection of department officials. consists mainly of the building of vestlbules at the loading doors of the shed, and tho laying of a two‘ inch, groove-and-tcngue floor over the original shed flooring, s well as considerable repairs to t e eves of the shed. ‘Ilhe vestlbules, of which there Will be 22 in all, are being built inside each shed door and are approximately 10 feet long, 9 feet wide and 9 feet high. The inner ends are covered with canvas drapes, thus allowing potatoes to lie stored right to the doors, with- out being endangered by frost or cold air, when loading operations are being carried out. The new floor, which has not been laid yet, will be separated from the original floor by a layer of frost-proof insulating material. In addition to this project, two electric light poles have already been erected on the west side of the wharf near the shed, each carrying three lights and reflec- tors, with a total o 1200 candle power, to aid in the loading from ship to wharf after dark. At the south end of the shed. 80 feet is being partitioned ofl for the storing oi." table-stock potatoes for Newfoundland ship- ments, w-hile the remainder of the shed will be used for seed pota- to storage, prlor to shipment by rail or water, for export purposes by local shippers. ‘ The cost of the project. on com- pletion, is estimated at $10,000. tartar-MacPherson liuptials , The marriage took place of "Eleanor June MacPherson, daugth- ‘ter of Mr. and Mrs. Norman Mac- The short holiday is over, and everybody is settling down to hard work. for the quarterly examina- tlons are just two weeks away.
