PROPOSES TOAST

To Mr. Earls C. Baker represent- ing the oldest firm here went the honor our of proposing the toast to the "City of Charlottetown on it's Centennial." He spoke of the signs

of progress and advancement ob- served throughout the city since the incorporation of ”the quaint

little town of 6,500 people in me." He paid tribute to Mayor Stewart and the City council and to all former administrators of the city. "We muat elneciaiiy consider those men who placed and are placing service to God, service to Country and service to their city above self interests," Mr. Bean said.

Mayor J. D. 8 wart in replying to the toast reviewed the obvious hardships with which the early citizens were confronted and com- pared the lives of those who have gone before with the facilities and opportunities now presented. "Not only will the names of the person- nel of your establishments be found in the records of City Hall." Mayor Stewart said, "they have also been found in the records of School Boards, and other public organis- ations such as hospitals, fraternal organizations and, in later years, Service Clubs."

"It is fitting that we should, in some small measure show our ap- preciation for the great contribut- ions they have made to the pro- gress and betterment of our city." with this in mind. it gives me great pleasure to present to you these tokens of the gratitude which we feel towards not only you, but also your predecessors."

His Worship thereupon presented the beautifully executed certific- ates of recognition and appreciat- ion to representatives of the fol- lowing firms in business in Char- lottetown for fifty years and over:

As Lillian and her husband got ready for bed the radio announced that planes were having a hard time trying to make landings due to a fierce blizzard.

The news worried me for a time. Then I fell asleep, only, to be awakened by a voice saying; "Jan- etis in danger."

The next morning, after a sleep- less night she called her dangli- ters apartment and learned that 45 minutes out of the Windy City two motors of the 4-motor plane went dead and a third kicked in just as the plane landed back in Chicago,
