PRINCE EDWARD ISLAND

There is no land so lovely

In all the world to me

As this Isle called “Prince Edward," Cradled upon the sea.

’.i‘his dear Prince Edward Island That each one loves so well

Is full ol beauty unsurpassed llrat weaves a magic spell.

Its broad and fertile meadows-

Farms —v\'00ds of spruce and pine.

Exl.\ncin , winding. country roads ink the uay tmvns in line.

And cosy little cabins

Are clustered hcrc and there. Bcsltle the roads and by the sea, You find them everywhere.

And when the moon is shining O'er the sea on summer nights, The Island ls a fairy land

Of beauty; and delight.

Tile all" is fllll of fragrance

From ferns and spruce and pine;

'I'here is no spot so lovely

As this Island home of mine.

Is it any wonder tllcn.

Tourists say tvho visit here?

"Your Island is so beautiful

We're cooling back next year." —Constance I. l-leckbert.

Scientists have discovered that by doubling the amount of chlorine added t. drinking water the chlor- lne taste disappears and the water than tastes quite pure and fresh.

MR. NEIL CAMPBELL

The many friends of Mr. Neil‘ Campbell will regret to learn of his decease. which occurred at hm home in Kingston. Prince Edtward Island. on Tuesday December 24th 1940. He was in his B8 year.

Although. confined to his bed for nearly three years, he did not c.m- plain. and was tenderly cared for b his son Beecher, and his wife Ilzlidred. He was a marl cf sterlzng character and his loving disposition won for him a host of friends. He will be very much missed in the community as well as in the hrme wl-lcrc friend's and neighb rs were always wclcome.

, and Harold Lawton. We welcome

with “m, contributions which should be addressed to H. Lawton. Charlottetown.

MEETING

an address by some outside speaker. Lest year we had Dr. Patterson and this year we hope to have an- other outstanding educatloniat.

The final session of the conven- tion will be lleld on Thursday morn- ing. Most of this sassion will be devoted to business.‘ but at. thLs meeting if there is not time earlier in the week. we plan to have an- other Forum Discussion 0n our edu- catlonal problems.

Other matters discussed at the Executive meeting were the Spitfire Fund, Education Week program and a suppiemnetary Salary Brief.

With regard to the Spitfire Fund. the Score‘ y-Treasurer reported that $500, already been for- warded to Mr. Crutchfleld. It was moved and seconded that expenses in connection with the Spitfire Flmshould be borne by the reo- eration so that all money con- tributed by the teachers would go directly to the Central Flmd.

It was decided that no sug- gestions would be forwarded at this ime about the Education Week program.

The proposed Salary Brief was read and approved by the Executive. The Permanent Salar Committee ls to present this brie to the lov- ernment as soon as possible. A more detailed account of this brief will be published later.

We hope. by means of this col- umn to keep the teachers well ln- formed as to what the Federation is doing. Any suggestions as to Convention Program particularly questionnaire may be forwarded to Mr. bowton or others members of the executive. The executive is at all times willing to consider sug- gestions or to take any steps which would be beneficial to the teachers of this province.
