Officers and man of the H. M. 5 "snipe". now in port. were jubilant yesterday as the new lcale of pay for the British Navy went into effect. It had been an- nounced that beginning September lat pay would be increased as much as thirty-three and a third per- tent. Ratings aboard the ship are the ones who will benefit most by the varied increases being given. The "Snipe" is due back in Devonport. England in October. thus marking the conclusion of he: o.-rtmission. Ships in His MI.leety'a avy are usually commissioned for two or two and a half years, but e "Snipe" was recanmisaioned at the end of her first two you .- riad and is now concluding what - ight well be termed a four year mmission. Most ships do not re- urn in their home base until after heir commission is served. Upon reaching England the crew i the "snipe" will receive 43 days ave. two days for each month ervlre. and will than be posted boarrl other ships leaving from rvrinpofi. England has three mal- r home ports. chatham. Ports- . mirn and Devonport. and as there a iriendly rivalry between the l-iroe. it is custmnsry for mm to ice ships from their home port.

Miss Marjorie Hill Takes New Position

Special meetings of the Provin- cial Red Cross Executive and the Provincial Red Cross Nutrition Com- mittee were called recently to deal with a request received from Dr. L. W. Shaw. Director of Education. to release Miss Marjorie Hill, 3. sc.. Director of Red Cross Nutrition Services, to replace Miss Doris And- erson, supervisor of Home Econom- ics at the Vocational school. as she has been granted a year's leave of absence in order that she may take advantage of a scholarship which has been awarded to her. It Was the general feeling of all present at both meetings that since there is no longer in Nutrition Department at National Headquarters in Toronto. and because the local Red Cross Budget must be curtailed. that it seemed wise to release Miss Hill to carry on under the Dept. of Educ- ation..1t was agreed that some phases of Nutrition services might be carried on under volunteers,-- particularly the!-iomemakcrs Ser- vice which is so Dobular in Charlottetown and Summerside. as well as the nutrition work presently belnz done 1" C0”; neotion with crippled children! clinics. The Nutrition Committee will continue to function. under the Chairmanship of Mrs. J. Walter Jones, in order to oversee this work and co-ordinate it.

The sur- vey which had been U01 ducted in nine rural districts in the Southport area over a period of two years (the first year under Mrs. Wm. A. Red- din, former Red Cross Nutritionist) showed that there had been a defin- ite increase in the use of whole grain cereals, vegetables and fruit as the result of the survey and the visits, talks and informative mat- erials given to the school pupils themselves. the parents and the Women's Institutes. Progress was reported in the school Lunch pro- ject and.helpful material prepared by Miss ,Hill was displayed at the meeting. This will continue to be available to teachers through the Junior Red Cross and Women's In- stitutes.

While the Prince Edward Island Red Cross regrets the loss of Miss Marjorie Hill as a member of its

staff, all concerned realize that ,

she will be able to do an arm deal to disseminate knowledge of Nutrit- ion and Home Economics to all Teachers-in-Training at Prince of Wales College. as well as the super- vision of the Home Economics Classes carried on in the Vocational Wing for young women from all parts of the province.
