Fine Exhibition Of Work By PEI Artists The cxiiibiiinn of paintings by' thirty-seven Prince Edward Is- land artists was viewed with much pleasure, and no little amaze- ment. when it opened I week's showing yesterday afternoon at the Harris Memorial Art Gallery in Charlottetown. Almost two hundred visitors were on hand. making it the largest. crowd yet to witness the opening of an exhibition by the local Art society. The majority of the work shown is by members of the Society. although work of guest artists is also on display, On first entering the one finds a. striking harmony in the grouping of the more than sixty-five pictures included in the exhibition. The vividly-toned ones are grouped. than the greyer and hiuer-toned subjects follow in subtle harmony. thus achieving a very pleasing effect. A number of the artists who are showing are rapidly develop- ing a style and technique of their own. and many are making pro- gress in the perfecting of.thclr original interpretation of beauty on canvas. Although most of the pictures are in oils. a number of water colors. one of the more elusive and .difficuit of mediums. are shown. Effects in some of these quitc equal the intensity of oils. entirely refuting the thought that water colors are always soft and without contrasts. In addition to the mediums mentioned above, pictures in tom- pers and copper. is sample of ii- luminating. and pieces of Island made pottery add greatly to the wide variety of subjects on display. on of the more remarkable samples of work shown is a beautiful illuminated testimonial to the late very Rev. George F. Kingston. Primate of all Canada. by Mrs. C. F. Bentley. a member of the local Art Society. Mrs. Bentley is well known both local- ly and on the mainland for her excellent work of this type. and the sample shown is typical of her artistry. During the opening yesterday afternoon tea was served to al visitors by the ladies of the soc- iety. and groups gathered to dis- cuss the amazing progress of the work shown, and the increased interest. shown by young and old in the development of art in this Province. Talten as it whole. the exhibit- ion is far above average for is dis- play of work by. amateur artists. and is a definite credit to the Provincc and to the organization which sponsors this annual event. The exhlbltion' will be open evveigv afternoon this week and on Saturday evening. Mil. GAIIIIINEII (Continued from Page 1) gallery. M the reservoir Allied troops moved forward.

Has High Praise for Colonel Drew O'I'rAWA. April 10 - (OP) - M. Gratlan 0'Leal'y said tonight he's been watching Opposition leaders in Canada's parliament for 40 years and he's never seen a bet- ter one than George Drew, Pro- gressive Conservative leader. The associate editor of the Ot- tawa. Journal. speaking on behalf the Progressive Conservative Party in a CBC free-time political broadcast. said a parliamentary op- position "is more vital today than ever before in our history." Its mere existence was "one of the real glories of our commonwealth." In his time. he's watched the rule of opposition leader in the Com- mons filled by Sir Wilfrid Laurier. Arthur Meighen. William Lyon Mackenzie King and R. B. Bennett (later V” A Bennett.) "1 say now. and deliberately. that none of these Opposition leaders performed his task with s devo- tion'and efficiency greater than the efficiency and devotion of Mr. Drew." The task of an Opposition leader today "is one of tremendous dif- ficulty and perhaps the most thankless upon which a public man may embark." "There are no penalties attach- ed to the criticism of an Opposi- tion leader. Unlike is Prime Minis- ter. he has no power to punish his critics and no rich patronage with which to reward his friends . . . . and consequently he does not at- tract to himseif- the sycophancy which always attaches itself to power.

New Speculation On Flying Saucers By Alton L. Blalsesli-0 Associated Press Science Reporter NEW YORK. April to - (AP)- A new book speculates that pilots of flying saucers arc super-bees frcm Mars, two inches long and quite beautiful. The super-smart bees are Ger- ald Heard's contribution to fly- ing-saucer discussion in "Is An- other World Watching?" (liar- per). He thinks maybe the Mart- ian bees are worried that man will blow up the earth or sun with atomic energy. hurting mars in the process. r Heard. English-born. once was editor of the London Realist. a monthly on scientific humanism. He accepts a lot of reports about the saucers as true. He tries to digest these "facts" into a theory. For example. one report was that flying saucers travel iltl.000 miles an hour. with sudden stops and turns. Heard says no pilot shaped like a human being could withstand the force and preuure of such movement. But insects might-and so maybe the Mart- ians are bees. Why are they spying on u.s?. The "only sensible answer" is that we're a peril to them. maybe a risk because of the atom bomb with which may he like "is bad boy with matches." The Martian bees know a lot more about science than we do. They know that earthmen have atomic energy because. says Heard they saw the mushroom cloud of the bombs-all the way from Mars.

April 10 - (AP! - Gunfire broke the un- easy truce on the Israeli-Syrian frontier again today. An Israeli Government spokes- man said skirmlshing developed when Aravbs fired on an Israeli police patrol. The patrol was touring by truck the demilitar- izcd border area. near Ein Geia. a Jewish settlement on the east. shore of the Sea of Galilee. By his account. the Arabs fired from a hill in the demilitar- ized zone and from the Syrian side of the frontier this morning and the engagement persisted in- to the afternoon. The spokesman had no report on casualties. A iingcir of Palestine extends from the Israeli-Syrian-Jordan border junction north-ward to about the middle of the east coast of the Sea of Galilee. It was in this zone-at El Hamma. a couple of miles west of the Syrian frontier-that seven Israeli policemen were killed on patrol last week. Eight Israeli planes bombed El Hamms and Syrian fortifications nearby in reprisal. lThe Syrians said the Jews dropped 72 bombs -- M0 and 500- pounders -- but the only casual- ties were a village woman and a child.) These incidents weeks of tension over Isis-iel's development work in the Huleh swamp area north of the Sea of Galilee. The government wants to drain the swamps and estab- lish hundreds of farms there. Syria wants the swamps retained as a buffer between the two count.i'ies. She charges that the drainage operation violates the Syrian-ls-rzieii armistice terms and the dcmiiltarized zones should be left as they are. came after Islaniier Injured . In ii. Y.
