Out of her trunks filled with tweeds. women's spcrt clothes and. suit lengths, which Miss Miller is plac- ing on display in Charlottetown. she pulled out s yard long piece of materiel made from the oomblngs of fox fur.

In the early days of the Island looms were busy and the skilled hands ‘of the WLJIBTI were at work producing cloth, blankets and other fabrics woven from Island wool. Woolen mills at Charlottetown and Tryon have long since gone out of

Bartering Pro - position Is Raised

(C. P. Cable)

(By Guardian's Special Wire)

LONDON, April 8.—'I'he question of promoting trade between Great Britain and Canada by bartering farm produce against Welsh anthra- cite was raised in the House of Com- mons this afternoon. D. J. Colville, Parliamentary Secretary for Over- seas Trade, told a questioner that so far as he was aware, no concrete proposal to which eflect could he given had yet been advanced. ‘The Secretary added that while the disadvantages of “trade by bar- ter" were obvious. if any practical scheme were submitted for conduct- ing by barter a considerable volume of trade which could not be finan- ced by any more normal methods, he would be glad to consider whether there were any means by which it could be facilitated.
