It's a funny thing Blnnmer ‘ Crystals! In January they are quiet little doormats for ovex-yone to trample on, not in March! ft’: been that way for three years now. partly because they have no ice early in the season enfso are slow reaching the peak of their form. but that doesn't tell the whole story, when the chips are down these summerslde inter- mediates get hot fast and their power in January and ‘March is comparable to Popeye before and after eating spinach. 'Dhet they sprang a surprise in their game

sinst the Vice last '.I'hlursdn.y night is putting it mildly. At the end of the second period when the score was 11 to 3 we had occasion to answer the rink phone and tell the stay-at-homes how the battle was going. The reactions were in- teresting. some in their amaze- ment_gavc ventto strong mule- sklnners‘ oaths; others just gave a gasp and we heard a chair fall over. We hope nobody was hurt. While one of the ladies was hand- ing out the information. an in- quirer gave out with an. incredul- ous. “Are you sure, dear?" It was a bit hard to believe.

We wrote a pre-game story say- ing the Crystals were preparing a .little surprise party for the Vice, but our tongue ‘was in our cheek. and we had no idea we were utter- ing suclh solemn words of wisdom. of course the Crystals are not out or the woods yet. and as in the csse of Julius Caesar it may for the Crystals be a case of ‘‘Beware‘ the Idea of March". (Second game is in the oharlottctown Forum March 15th) but we think the Cry- stals will be cable to hold on to at least a portion of their six-goal lead.

We made our first visit to Kons- ington Rink Saturday night to see the Charlottetown Juvenile Aflzics play that surprising band of lu- veriiles from Kemingtori. The biggest crowd of the season tum- ed out to see the boys in action. and were treated -to a. stirring struggle despite the one-sided score. The Kenslngton fans were no doubt disappointed with the re- suite. but they have every reason to feel proud of their juveniles. ‘line team is good enough to have capped the Island title last year. we believe. but they had the mis- fortune to biosscm forth in the season that the Nbegweits had de- veloped‘ one of their most potent sextets. we've never seen better forwerd lines in Juvenile ranks than the Albbies halve. 'Ilhei:r de- fence is also good. but not the best \wg'vg seen, and if they fail to Wln a Maritime title, it may be the reugugrd that will slip a cog or two. The juvenile ’ ‘ we ilk- ed the best was the one which the stnnmerslde Kinsmen hadiibe year they won the Maritime champion- ship. Nell McLeod and Dillon Mc- Nslly were the main cogs in that reiarguasd, and they were tough to penetrate. The forward line had an outstanding star in Toey Richard ml. were not as well balanced as the present Abbie forwards.

The surrmecside Midgets swamp- ed the 0'I..eary boys 16 to and are now ready to take otmiotmovwn winners. They look pretty strong but the ‘loss of Neil Walker. one of their best forwards. who is sick and. will be out for th0 remainder of the season. wil weaken their attack considerably.

Newfoundland Agents

The report continues:

"Messrs. Fortune Agencies l..ti.. who. were appointed as the Oor. poration's agents for the South Coast of Newfoundland and 8t. Pierre also accused an appointment as the agents for Maura. Oarvell Bros. I.td.. w are our ' at shippers. whi whilst it consider- : . increased the amount of freight secured did not improve our position so far as investigation of claims for. damaged or short land- ed consignments is concerned.

“Many of Messrs. Fortune Agencies sub-agents along the coast‘ have rendered little or no assistance and have in some cases been openly .hostiie to Messrs. Fortune Agen- cies enroachlng on their own pre- serves. Thls is in all probability due to the fact that Messrs. Fortune Agencies have been over only a small part of the commission they earn to their sub agents and it would possibly be a more satis- factory arrangement to terminate the agreement with them except for parts on the Burin Peninsular which come directly under their influence.

"A stronger attitude over claims could be taken if receipts for con- signments in good condition were handled from the ship rather than being left to a sub agent who is more interested in maintaining happy relations with his neigh- bours than with his principals.

“If such a. course -were tak by the Corporation, the eavlng of commission on frelghts would sm- ply provide for the of I supercargo or Purser to be carried aboardthe ship. It would also an- able the number of deck officers to be reduced by one as the Mate would no longer be required to handle any business in connec on with thevessel whilst she is away from her base in Chulottetown. It is considered that providing For- tun Agencies retain their agency righ in the Burin Peninsular, to- tal freights canted would not suf- fer by this re-arrangement."

Although the service/as operated in-the past season has served the Port of cornerbmok, »the report ststerthat it is not considered desirable to continue on the same arrangement in the future.

flasnoisl sic."

"No detailed report. on the fin- ancial side of the operation is given‘ here as it is difficult to foretell what the eventual position will be at the and of the first year of op- eretion". the report states. "Con- siderable initial expense has been encountered however in the es- tablishment of the service. by the provision of warehouse and office equipment clings. cattle boxes etc. ‘In addition a great deal of work huhadtobecsrriedouton the vessel itself. not only to adapt it for the type of work it has to per- form but to make up the backlog of maintenance which was not car- ried out by the former owners «bir- ing ths last season they operated the ship.

"Even with this heavy expendit- ure in the first year however. the service could have been self-sup- porting if cargoes were available for the return run. but although many possibilities have been in- vestlgated there is no commodity obtainable in Newfoundland which enjoys a’. market in Prince Edward Island. with the possible exception of rmestone. It is felt however that coal from North Sydney or Sydney could be brought into Charlottetown on the return from Newfoundland if Charlottetown coal merchants could be persuaded to use this service instead of the Canadian National Railway." other w8§°\tlona to reduce the costpf operation are to adopt the policy of the Dominion (lovem- ment and to operate the vessel un- insured; to increase the rates‘ be- yond their present level.. (this is considered Is a. last resort); to take the risk of damaged or lost cargoes rather than insuring them: or to alter the present routing of the vessel, so as to include Halifax on the inward trip and so secure cargoes of salt fish from the out- ports. fortrans-shipment in Hall- fax and furtherance to West In- dian markets. This course would also enable fuel oil to be purchas- ed in Halifax at a lower price than that ruling in Charlottetown. The saving on this alone would 5 to about $1,400 per snnum at the present rate of consumption.

wages and salaries

“In assessing the value to the Province of the service already es- tablished". the report states. "not only the new business to the Prov- ince and the money put in circul- ation by fueling. provisioning and servicing the ship has to be con- sidered but also the wages paid to waterfront labour must be taken into account. 34.158 hlvlng been paid to hourly employees for load- ing and discharging cargo in char- lottetown between June filth and December 13th.. 1940. the-sum of 04.43930 also having been paid to full time administrative staff for the same period. all of which has been in all probability circulated within the Province. .

"salaries and wages paid to the crew of the rs.v. Eskimo amounted to ttuotso for the period June Int. 1310 to January 3l.st.. 1050 and of'this also a. considers" sum has retumed to the Province by virtue of tbefact that the major- ity of the crew members are resi- dent ln Prince Edward Island."

"Por the some period revenue rfrom freight: earned and warehouse cherges_ has emulated to seams and this is not considered diasp- pcinting when it is taken into con- sideration that it has been the first season of operation. not only for the Newfoundland shipping serv- ice but also the first attempt of the Charlottetown merchants to sell in a market formerly under the domination of Sydney. Halifax. and at. John's, Newfoundland. If the orders secured by these mer- ,cll_ant.s continue at the same level obtained during the latter part of the 1919 season and the route is amended to give the possibility of return cargo , and also bearing in mind that e cost of operation should fall in the second season. there appears every possibility that the service will be capable of sup- 'poftlng itself in future years."

FAITH AND WORK CAN MAKE A MIRACLE

By Alfred P. llsekeu

can you imagine a stuttering boy developing into one of Amer- ica's most sought after speakers’) Dr. Alfred P. I-Iaske. mayor of the city of Park Ridge. Ill., tells his own personal experience in over- coming a serious personal hand- icap.

One is naturally reticent about relating his personal experience to demonstrate a truth. and I have always felt a little uneasy about folks who recited so easily and glibly about the power of "grace" in their lives.

But I do know something of the power which can flow through even the poorest vehicle to bless those who invoke it humbly and prayer- fully. God cannot he commanded. But He can be asked.

When. somehow. we adapt our- selves. properly to -the laws by which He rules the universe. we can bring about within ourselves changes that seem miraculous.

As a boy I could scarcely talk. I stuttered so badly that I did not recite in school. I wrote my lessons on paper or on the blackboard. when I played ball with the o‘her boys they sometimes called me out when I was actually safe, Just to hear me sputter. I knew what I wanted to tell them, but it jest piled up below my hroat and left me mute.

One Sunday afternoon I went to I. meeting in the Central Y. M. C. A. on Lasalle st. in Chicago. to hear Senator Albert J. Beveridge of Indiana. He talked to the boys about the power of God and the help He gives to those who have faith in Him.

"If You Believe"

I can still close my eyes and see the Senator standing there, with his finger pointing straight at me, as he said to us, "Young man, there isn't a thing in the world you can't do, if you believe you can,"

somehow it seemed he meant that especially for me. For the first time I believed I might get rid of the handicap that made life so miserable for me. I told my mother about the meeting and the newly born hope that some day I might talk to people the way Bevarldge had talked to me.

she was a wise and wonderful woman. my mother! she knew something of the heartbreak: that come from over expectations in a world that takes more Joy in pull- lng down than it does in build- ing up.

And She patted my head gently as she said to me. "Be patient, my son. All in good time! We do not always understand the ways of God. but if we have faith and just mile!‘ SW? trying. some of our dreams are bound to come true."

I PH-Yed thlt night when I went to bed It was wonderful to know that God could’ understand the prayer I sent up without saying a word. For the first time in my life I felt able to convey my thoughts and yearnings wi hout stumbling over the ideas that cried for expression. I felt then. rd I still believe now. that my petition went straight to the heart of God.

No Quick Miracles

The next day did not see the kind or miracle that I might have welcomed. I still stuttered so bad- ly that I could not talk. and the boys and girls laughed at me when I made another attempt to recite in class. But. this time I did not sit down entirely defeated. .Some of the faith I had felt the day be- fore still remained.

I read about Demosthenes who was said to have overcome an impediment in speech by tsllklng with stones in ‘his mouth. so I went down to the beach of Lake Michigan. picked up a‘ handful of Pebbles. washed them in the ripp- lets that came up on the shore. filled my mouth with them and tried to talk.

It did not work and I spit out the stones in disgust. I tried again. this time with fewer stones, and again and again and again. At last I literally fell on my knees in exhaustion nno cried: "Please God, let me talk."

I think God must have listoned to my unspoken words. and known the utter pain and hunger in my heart. for as I knelt a calm came over me and I remembered the words of my mother: "Be patient. my son F. . . we do not always understand the ways of God . . . never stop trying dreams come true."
