'I'he Summerslde High school. originally known as the Davies school was constructed in 1878, the funds being raised mainly by pri- vate subscriptions among the citi- zens. The first principal was the la‘.e Mr. Neil Mobeod. K. C.. whose incumbency ran from 1878 to 1894. His successor was the late W. D. McIntyre, f0l'QWf.‘d in the follow- ing order by R..H. Campbell, Claude V. Bent. Robert Duncan, Hammond Johnston, George H. Campbell, Stanley K. Donalds and the pres- ent. incumbent. Mr. C. B. Jelly. For many years the two primary grades were taugh‘. in other build- ings in the Town, the last being the old Eastern and Western «schools. In 1915 the summerside schools were consolidated into one unit and the Davies School en- larged to accommodate all the pu-

‘s

In 1932 the school was again en- larged and a new assembly hall built in connection with the school. At the same time Grades 11 and 12 were added, those grades being known as the Summarside Academy of which Miss Georgie McLean. M.A., has been the efficient prin- cipal

On June 14, 1935 occurred the disastrous fire which totally de- sloyed the old Davis School and the 1916 addition, leaving only the 1932 addition.

THE NEW BUILDING

The building which hag recently been completed was constructed un- der the supervision of Mr. Albert Baker, the Architect being Mr. J. M. Hunter.

The Academy and High school is situated at the north of summer street and gives is very fine ap- pearance. The completed building is about 200 feet long and 115 feet wide. 'i‘he old section has been practically rebuii‘. and has been modernized throughout. In this section a school library and 13 Teachers Consulting room have been provided. The Academy and High School comb ’ has a total of 26 class rooms. The new Acad- emy cover; an area of 115 by tiff 1-2 feet. The section destroyed by fire was '18 by 50 feet.

The Academy has ten class rooms including a chemistry laboratory and a physics laboratory and lect- ulo room. Eight. of these rooms are located on the ground floor, having dimensions of 22 1-2 feet by K3 feet and two on the second floor za by 2'! feet.

and concrete with fireproof hollow tile partitions. The outside walls are of brick.

AUDITOBIUM

The Auditorium which is on the second floor is very beautifully fin- ished. The dimensions are 59 by 63 feet apart from the stage which is 18 by 36 feet with dressing rooms on each side. These rooms are 11 by 18 feet. The auditorium is supported overhead by six steel girders sixty fee: long. The ceiling is ill feet in height and the bai- oony which extends the full width of the hall is la feet wide. The space beneath the stage is used for siorage of seats which are placed on a. system of rollers. Across the front of the stage are sixt foot- llghtg arranged in four dfferent colors. These footlighis can be low- ered bencath the floor level when they are not required.

At the back of the Assembly Hall there is a stool and concrete projection 5 1-2 by 12 feet from which a motion picture machine or stereopttcon may be operated. There are nine large electric lamps over- head. Modem firedoors connect the Auditorium and the older section and the lower part of the building

The laboratories are fully equip- pcd. The equipment. in the former laboratory has been installed. This department is well lighted. having skylights and wide windows. There is a large storage room in connec- tion wi h this department.

The blackboards in the class- rooms are of special construction made in Chicago and are 18 and 14 feet in length.

The building is heated by new steel bzrlers, two heaters in each mom. Practically one side of each class room is taken up with win- dows thus giving ample light.

The f‘oors over al the build- ings are oi concrete covered with 3A extra heavy battleship linoleum cemented in place.

The rooms are finished in white ivory with burlap wainscotting and the ceilings are finished in a wood fibre known as Donnaoona. The centre is in squares with a. plain board which it is though‘. improves the accousilcs. The stairs are of steel covered with linoleum.

\ Klidhen And Play Rooms

In the remodelled section there is a large kitchen. Also in the basement there are two well finish- ed play rooms. The boys’ play rooln is 70 by 36 fee -. the brick walls painted in ivory and buff and the girls play room is 40 by 40 feet. In this section there are also mod- ern equipped toilets. The new brick constructed building is 36 feet high. on account of the location it has been found necessary to extend summer Street north.

The grounds are much larger and will have streets all around. Rows of elm trees are being lanted around and the grounds made attractive with flowers and shrubs.

OTTAWA, May 21-Theory that an ancient Norse explorer reached the Gulf of St. Lawrence and saw Prince Edward Island more than 500 years before Columbus made

contained in a paper read today before the historical section of the

Royal society of Canada by Col. Wilfrid Bovey of McGiii University. Montreal.

Col. Bovey, recapltulating evid- ence of Norse discovery contained in ancient accounts. including the saga of Eric the Red, in the light of new evidence concluded that Bjarne I-Ieriuifson sailed from Ice- land about 986 and was driven 151' south by the wind, missing New- foundland and entering the Gulf of the St. Lawrence through Cabot Strait.

After reaching Prince Edward Island Oil which he did not land- Col. Eovcy suggested, Heriuiison sailed north through the Straits of Belle Isle and lantlcd at tile south- ern lip of Greenland.

He suggested also that evidence of old records indicated Licf Eric- son_ son of Eric lilo Rod. royuscd up the St. Lawrence a considerable distance about the year 1000 and that the country he named Vin- land was in that territory at a point impossible to fix at this date.

Col. Bovey said there was ev- idence to support the belief that Thorfiann Karlsefne and Freydis. a. daughter of Eric the Red, reached Vinland about three years later.

“At. the other end of the world," he said, "Japan is arming and is in the highest state of national exulta- tion. All the old perils of a year ago are presented in aggravated form.

“The only new and prime factor is the grave antagonism that has grown up between us and Italy. And where will the others be if you are late? What will be the strength of the German army or air force in 1938 and 1939, for, broadly speak- ing, the eflective result, of your work only matures in the third year?

“The British public has no idea of the efficiency of German war production, of its enormous skill, nor with what marvellous smooth- ness it could be made to pour out an almost limitless flow of the most horrible weapons of human destruc- tion ever placed in the unworthy hands of men."

CLAIMS BLUNDER.

He charged the government had made a serious organizational blun- der in linking the functions of the head of the supply board with the coordination of strategic thought. For example, he said Sir Thomas Inskip would have to deal with problems like the retention of Bri- tish command of the Mediterranean.

In the now changed diplomatic conditions, Churchill went on, there was also the tremendous question of the military value of Russia and whether Britain was endangered from the air not only by bombs but by substantial landing forces by air in parts of the country where no- body was armed and trained. In this way important points could be seized.

Sir Thomas Insklp, he continued, was responsible for seeing the coun- try had enough cobalt and chrom- ium and nickel. and a hundred other vital matters.

"In the meantime everything is worse from the viewpoint of peace and safety than a. year ago. The country will have to pass through A long valley of unpl tectedneas and in that period events in Europe may reach a climax.

PROPOSES Ml.NlS'l'B.Y OF‘ MUNITION 5

He advocated the establishment of a ministry of munitions with the assistance of a "dozen of the most active young businessmen in the country."

sir Thomas Insklp said the gov- ernment was Sllbsldizlllg extensions of private automobile factories to speed up plane production for the Royal Air Force.

"If a storm should bent over our heads we are unlikely to have a long time to exvlnd our produc- tion." laid Sir Thomas in ini-!‘0d|l¢- in; estimates for his ministry. It was his first long speech before the Oommcna since assuming the new

ed on at 24 hours‘ notice, to meet the needs of war on a modem scale," he declared.

"The government is now ready to allocate contracts to firms which hitherto have been engaged in peace-time work. Four hundred firms have received detailed inspec- tion and 500 have received prepara- tory inspection. Flrms have been classified and allotted to different departments. An orderly plan for a survey of the industrial resources of the country has been made."

LOOK T0 REQUIREMENTS

The next, most important stage, sir Thomas told the House, was putting into operation plans for producing all thc_ material required. He said he was shortly allocating contracts for a full supply of gauges and machine-tools. It might be ne- cessary to give government orders priority as he did not think a sub- stantial quantity of gauges could be produced under five or six months, while getting machine-tools might take longer.

The Minister continued that it was necessary to provide more air- craft for the increased personnel. Steps were being taken, he said, to enlist motor firms. These were be- ing asked to build new premises and extensions at the government's expense.

Sir Thomas said these would re- main the property of the govern- ment. Thus, hc said, the govcm- ment had reserved capacity without interference with normal trade.

PREVENT PROFITEERING

Rigorous steps would be taken to prevent profiteering. Among many matters engaging attention were the questions of battleships and the fleet air arm, he proceeded,

Sir ‘Thomas announced that a sub-committee under Sir William Beveridge, former secretary of the ministry of food during the war, had been appointed to consider the food supply of the civilian popula- tion, in the event of war. He said conservation of food was an impor- tant question and called on all per- sons interested in storage of com- modities to cooperate with the de- fence committee.

sir Thomas declared that various other questions associated with war- time organizatlon of the country were being considered. including measu on for the protection of mer- chant shipping. aircraft defence and passive lneasu as for the defence of the civil population.

KENSING TON

A TBIBUII

The news of the passing away last Saturday. May 16th, at her home in Tignish, of Mrs. A. J. MacI"adyen, was heard with wide- spread regret by many friends all over Prince County where the fam- ily was so well and favorably known.

Her husband, the late A. .1. Mac- Fadyen, was a member and man- ager of the firm of J. H. Myrick at Co., and a son, Benjamin R., successfully carried on a drug busi- ness in Bummerside and Kensing- ton for years; both predeceased her, her husband some ten years and her sonthree years ago.

Many will remember the Mac- Fadyen home, famed for its hos- pitality, where to enter was like going into a beautiful garden, with the finest and best awaiting one.

Mrs. MacFadyen was a lady of a rare type; with her kindness. her charity, iler fineness of mind and character, to meet her was a de- light and to know her was to love her.
