Mercy Flights To Magdalene Islands-

(By a Magdalene islands corres- pondent. to "l: angeline," Moncton)

GRINDSTONE, Ebb. 8. 1980-1110 first trip of the airplane 0n Jan- uary 9th was notable by reason of the departure of Mr. James Mc- Lean of Entry Island for the Char- lottetown Hospital Entry Island is composed of about 30 families, of whom Old James. as he is called, is the principal citizen. He has raised 15 children. He is the father of Mr. Daniel K. McLean, light- house keeper of that place. Three of his boys Joined the navy during the Great War. This venerable old man was seriously ill, and this led the mem‘ a of his family to seek the services of an airplane to trans- port him to a hospital where he could receive expert care and nurs- ing. As a result, that daring aviator, Jones. of the Canadian Airways, Charlottetown. hurried over from Prince Edward Island to take Mr. McLean to the hospital. Pilot Jones succeeded in landing in a. field within a short distance from the lighthouse, and taxied almost to Old James’ very door-step.

1t is well to explain that Entry Island is completely separated from the other group of Islands. of which the nearest is Havre Aubert (Amherst Island), by about nine miles of water. Pilot Jones remained on the Island only the few minutes necessary to embark his passenger. but after leaving Entry, ho flew to McCormick Bay, (Grindstcne), and landed in front of the residence o! Mr. Win. S. Araenault, the post- master. who hod two bags of mail tn forward to the mainland.

On its second trip to these ls- lands, January 13th. the airplane was piloted by Mr. Fowler, Super- intendent of Canadian Airways st Charlottetown, He was accompanied by Mr. Power, Chief Mechanlcisn of the Canadian Airways for the Maritime Provinces. who is sta- tioned at.

Mr. Fowler continued his flight alone to Brion Island to pick up Mr. Keating. the lighthouse keeper, who wished to be conveyed to the Charlottetown Hospital for urgent ‘ ‘ ‘

Brion Island is one of the small- est of the Magdalene Island group inthe Gulf of St.L-. .Itis situated at some distance from the other Islands, and is a precipitous promonto y about fifty feet in height and difficult of access. Gen- erally no ics forms around it, and itiswashedbyastormyses.

It is covered with snow and there is no prspmd field. Ii, is not a desirable place to effect a landing. and required all the coolness. skill and ability of such a trained pilot as w. Iiowler to bring his plane to a sueoemful landing. This he did without mishep.~'1‘his Is1|_i_n_d_ is in-

NEW B. I. S. SIGN-The atten- tion of pedestrians on Grafton St. last evening was attracted by a new electric sign over the door of the Benevolent Irish Society Ball. ‘Iliis sign consists of an illuminated shamrock bearing the initials B.I.S. It is surmounted by a beautiful hand-carved harp. When lit the sign has the effect of brightening the otherwise dark Bank of Com- merce comer and it. is expected will attract many new patrons m the B. I. S. functions. The construction of the sign and the carving of the harp were handled by Doyle's Paint Shop, City. The design was laid out by Bro. John A. Cronin who is one of the oldest members of the Society.

From Brion, Mr. Fowler flew back to McCormick Bay, making the round trip from Grindstone to Brion in one hour. At Grindstonc he picked up two more passengers, Hector Arsenault and Raymond Cyr, the latter a lad of sixteen who was suffering from an acute ap- pendix condition. All these cases were landed in Charlottetown by five o'clock of that afternoon. That same evening it was announced that young Cyr had been success- fully operated upon, while the other two patients were receiving medical attention at the Charlottetown Hospital.

Another patient for hospital. Jose Lapierre of Etang du Nord. is awaiting the return of the plane.

Some 18 years ago he raised on his Central Royalty form the prize- winning cow, Milk lvLald 7th, which as a two-yecir-old held a world’s record for her class and. as a. mature cow took the Canadian re- cord.

Sires bred on the MacRne farm have sold as far away as Illinois. nd many were bought in Ontario and Quebec.

MacRae Ayrshire cattle showed prominently at Amherst agricul- tural exhibition in 1935 and were the biggest. money winners at Charlottetown Exhibition last. sum- mer. .

With his two sons. Fred and Major, Andrew MacRae operates a large dairy at the outskirts of Charlottetown. and from 50 to 60 registered cattle are kept on the MacRao farm.
