visiting Charlottetown at present is the Rev. Odilln Chevrler. of the Roman Catholic order of Oblates .,f 5;, Mary Immaculate. who since 1923 has been active in missionary and educational labours in minute- iand, south Africa. A native of Ontario, Father Chevrier ls enjoy- ing his second leave home in that long period. c

A British crown colony. Basut.o- land is about the size of Belgium and has an almost entirely native population of ,eome 000.000. The great majority of the people are Basuto. but there are some thous- iiiids of Barolong and other, Kaf- firs. There are numerous mission siotions throughout the country. zilso two catholic seminaries, cen- tied at Roma. where it is planned -n erect a higher institution of lP:ll'l'lll1g to be known as the Pius XII University. It is in connection llllh the raising of funds for this university that Father Chevrler is iisltlng various parts of Canada at ihe present time.

Father Chevrier was the first member of his order to be sent to Baslltoland from Canada. and in an interview yesterday he spoke uiih modest pride of the great ad- iance made in recent years. There are now 115 Canadian priests in the. field. with 250 elementary schools in operation. Twenty-six li:lIlVE priests have been ordained and there are about 100 candid-

The heroic wartime service of H.M.C.S. Assinibolne, now await- ing breaking up, told in The Guardian yesterday. has recalled many memories to men who sall- ed the Atlantic in the veteran.

Although she fought many hard hatles with the enemy, the action in September. 1942 when she made her first "kill" of a Nazi lhboat was probably her greatest single effort. At that time the action was at such close quarters that the guns could not he brought to bear on the submarine. The npposinz tailors were only a few feet apart.

What aided the Canadians most was the action of L. S. Earl Cos- tello of Montreal on the 5.7 gun when single-handed be prevented the Germans from getting to their main gun from the canning tower. L. S. Costello shot five of them in quick succession.

Another of the crew Michael Sculllon. fired the gun which scored a direct. hit and when the sub was rammed twice the battle was over. One of the men who was in gthat gun crew was Jack Thompson of this city who nar- rowly escnped being wounded when tracer bullets rattled the deck near his head. L. S. Costello who successfully prevented the Germans from reaching their gun had served in Maritime waters and is believed to have been here for a time early in the war.

On board ship that day were seven Islanders serving in the crew. They were Ralph McGuigan and Jack Thompson, Charlotte-

On South Lake Send Bar

At the and of the war the As-

siniboine was consigned to the naval "graveyard" at Sorel, Que- her. and was under tow from

Cape Breton when she broke loose and under pounding from heavy scos was driven firmly on a sand bar at South Lake, P.E.l., only a few miles beyond Souris.

What is left of the hull was re- cenily purchased by Sidney J. Simon. Halifax. whose salvlige company will break her up for scrap. While in Charlottetown re- cently Mr. Simon said that he expected to have all equipment here to begin the work within ti short time and expected to hire as much local labor as possible. The work will be done under dir- ection of Mr. W. B. Parsons, com- pany superintendent.

Mr. Simon. president of the Guard Salvage Company. founded it in 1945. He is a member of the Board of Trade of Saint John. N. B., and Montreal. is member of the Chamber of Commerce of Canada and is honorary prcsident of the Halifax Police Social Club.

In the proposed operation at South Lake the equipment to be used will include a heavy mobile crane and pump to be transport- ed by scnws and tugs: acetylene cutting equipment, or-can salvage pumps and derrick scnws.

Manslaughter Charge is Laid

Acting on lnformatioll laid by Constable Thurston of the R.C. M.P., against Gordon Carr of

Tryon, before Stlpendlary Magis- trate Gilbert A. Gaudet, a charge of manslaughter has been laid and the preliminary hearing is scheduled for Wednesday, July 23.

The case arose as a result of the investigation of the 'death of Ellsworth Ferguson, of Crapaud, on the highway between Desablc and Hampton, when he was struck by a truck driven by Gordon Carr of Tryon.

inquest Held In Death of North Rustico ”Cltild

The death of Anthony Roger Leclair, I3-months-old North Rus- tlco child, run over by a truck in front of his home Monday, was purely accidental and no blame could be attached to the driver of the truck, a coroner's jury decided last night. The inquest. was held at Stella Maris School. Coroner J. J. Blacquiere presided.

Five witnesses gave evidence. They were Joseph L. Peters. Ailbin Gallant. Leo Gallant, Alyre Gal- lant, driver of the truck. and Cpl. stunden of the North Rustlco R. C.M.P.' detachment.

Joseph L. Peters who was work- ing nearby. saw the child playing, around the truck, both the one Gallant was driving and one be- longing to the child's father. An older brother tried to get the lit- tle fcllow to go in the house but could not persuade him. It was only a few millutes later that the accident occurred, as Gallant backed the truck up. However. Mr. Peters did not see the actual

Completes 5th R.0.P. Record At Bunbury

Abegweit stardust, one of the outstanding cows in the famous Holstein herd of Premier J. Wal- ter Jones. has just completed her 5th R..0.P. record with 23,733 pounds of milk and 1,070 pounds butter fat (unofficial).

The previous year this cow, which ranks with" the best pro- ducers in Canada, gave 1,029 pounds of fat and these two con- secutive records place her high in the list of performers. stardust is nine years old and her five re- cords show an average of 870 pounds of fat. This is remarkable when it is realized that many herd owners are very pleased to put an animal in the 800 pound class at any time. She is now being dried off with the intention of resting her on grass for severpl months.

Abegwcit Stardust might have been expected to set these marks for other Canadian cows to shoot at. Her dam was Abegweit Robin which was he Grand Champion here in 1944 and which Premier Jones later sold at the National Sale fol' 52,050. Her sire was Mont- vic Pathfinder l0th.

The local golf professiollal. Cecil Dowllng. has been kept busy at his sphere of activity. Many of the visitors are taking advantage of our fine golf course which, despite my large number who play daily. is still much less congested than most of their home town courses.

It is at times such as this that we should be thankful that we are not living on a "Coney Islalld" or some such place. It is not expect- ed that Prince Edward Island will ever become as busy as some of her sister resorts. This is due to several factors including climate, geographical location. and invol- ing difficulties.
