Good Work At

. Railway Wharf

In uuurection with last week's Royal visit there were many out- standing jobs done by people re- sponsible for helping to make things go smoothly. One such task not noticed by the general public was that of the Federal De- partment of Public Works at the Railway wharf.

The wharf was nicely decoruicd and brilliantly II,'.:lltC(I to make it easy for the Princcss and tho Duke in get to the barge taking them out to the Ontario.

Vocational I Training For Youth Stressed

The responsibility of business to take an active interest in the vocational training of youngsters in school was emphasized yester- day by Mr. Clarence Mercer. sup- ervisor of Summerslde High School. when he addressed tho Charlottetown Rotary Club-at its annual charter Members Day.

It was the 34th anniversary of the founding of the club hero and four of the or giriai members were present for the occasion. They were Messrs. W. A. Stewart. A. W.

Hyndman, J. O. I-fyndman and Arthur Clark. ” In a powerful plea for greater

help to young men and women ready to take their places in the working world. Mr. Mercer stress- ed the nced of changes in the school curriculum to provide the growing boys and girls with more incentive to remain at their stud- ies for a longer period of time.

The speaker titled his talk "For whom the bell tolls" as he pointed out what he termed the mortal- ity rate of students in leaving school before completion of the full number of years of study. His talk was based on the report of the Canadian Education Association whose study of the problem was financed by various Canadian business firms.

Mr. Mercer said the study show- ed that bi per cent of the students drop out of school after Grade 7. He said there were several rea- sons for this. chic! among which he cited uninteresting school sub- jects. By this he meant that they were too theoretical and did not have nnough of a practical nature to hold the interest of the stu- dents.

Lack of Guidance He also noted a lack of vocation-

al guidance and suggested that in addition to the ordinary academic

course the schools here should have a general school leaving course with emphasis on the cultural subjects nnd physical fitness. There should also be a business course and a technical course.

On the latter point he thought that in many cases where boys are required lo remain in school because of the needs at home created through Family Allow- ances rcgulations that they could profit greatly through more em- phasiss on practical courses. lie suszgested that half of their school time might be spent on such -studies with the rest being devot- cd to practical fundamental sub-

JEPIS. Mr. Mercer told his interested audience that the responsibility

of the school does not end when the student drops out or gradu- ates. It should continue until the boy is happily placed in his job. lie said that to this end business must play a greater part in order to complement the effort of the schools in the interest of youth.

The speaker believed that the institution oi vocational guidance in our schools. in co-operation with the business world. would make for an easier transition from school to industry.

The cg-ohairmen for the weekly luncheon meeting were Mr. T. Roy Cudmore and Chester Shaw.

During the meeting two new members of Rotary were intro- duced to the gathering. They were Mr. Ralph Jones. of Eutern Sec- urities. who was introduced by Mr. Eric Dewling, and Dr. Goo:-ze Fisher, who was introduced by Mr. Frank Jeiks.

Guests present included Maj. T. E. MacNutt. secretary of the Charlottetown School Board:I-ion. Dr. Marc Trudeau. Assist.ant-Min- ister of Health for Quebec; Mr. Michael Mclkiejohn. of the Drama Branch Department of Physical Fitness. .0i.t.awa; Mr. Don Beddilol. Be .

Robot Machinist. latest Gadget

' BROOKLYN, N. Y.. Nov. 12 - (AP)-Robot machlnst that can automatically operate a machine tool a thousand miles away by electrical impulses was announced here today by the Daco Machine and Tool Co.

One of the busiest spots in Charlottetown during the Royal visit was the Press headquarters which was located in the writing room at the Charlottetown Hotel. Over 50 visiting press, radio. riewsreei and cameramen handled their coverage for Canadian. Am- erican and English newspapers from there.

At 1 p.m. on the day of the visit the Press headquarters were a beehive of activity. The 21 typewriters provided for the oc- casion wore in full swing tapping out the story of PTlnCe&.E1IL3tbCth and the Duke of Edinburgh's re- ception in Prince Edward Island. Officials of the Canadian Nation- al Telegrnphs, who moved their transmitting machines into the hotel for the day. said it was one of the heaviest files of stories they had handled in the Maori- times and that ”mosi. of it was historical background on the Is- land." .. .

Photographers were busy in another section of the hotel where a camera loading room was provided. Other cameramen were at the studio of a local photo. grapher. wh-ich was engaged for the clay. developing and printing their pictures which were quickly dcspatchcd to their hometown newspapers.

Pollcc Compcration

There was only one hitch in the arrangeinenis - passes to the Confederation Chamber and City Hall went astray on the pilot train. However. this situa- tion was overcome through the splendid co-operation of Inspec- tor Churchill of the local R.C.M.P., Chief MacArthur of the City Po- lice and Acting Mayor J.

Press Accommodation For The Royal Visit.

lbefense llnder Atomic Attack ls Discussed

A well informed populace is the greatest asset in the defense against an atomic attack. Mr. Richard T. Matheaon. B.Sc., told his audience when he appeared as guest speaker at the Armistice supper meeting and Father and Late-Teen Son Banquet of the Trinity United Church Men's As- sociation held last night in the Church Hall.

Introduced by Brig. W. W. Reid. Mr. Mathcoon said that he had the good fortune to be selected to attend the Radiation Monito:s Instruction Course held this past summer at the Royal Miliury

' College at Kingston. Ontario. the

first such course to be conducted in Canada.

He traced the history of atomic power. from the search by the alcheniists in the seventeenth century for the "philosophers stone." to the bursting of the first atomic bomb in the New Mexico desert in 1945, which rev leased power of far greater magni- tude than even the most. optimis- tic alchemist had hoped forfrom the mythical stone. '

Effects of the different meth- ods of detonating the bombs on the population of a city and the damage done at various diistaniccs from the centre of the burst were described b Mr. Matheson. who said that the temperatures and pressures generated by atomic fission were astronomical. im- possible to measure. it has been estimated that the temperature existing for three seconds at the point of detonation to be in the region of one million degrees Centigrade.

He also described the nature of the injuries inflicted on people subjected to atomic attack such as shock from blast. flash burns. direct gamma ray radiation and the insidious residual .adiatlon from contaminated materials. which has the power to kill even though the victims show no signs or symptoms.

Best Known Methods

This besl. known methods of combating those effects Mr. Matheson said. was an adequate Iivarning of an impending attack. the wearing of light coloured clothing. and fully trained civil defence personnel to use the in. struments for detecting radia- tion. '

The speaker win: thanked for his address by Col. L. T. Lowthcr. who said that now we have heard that matter can be transformed. something had better be done about the transfoivrna-tion of man.

The meeting Nimenced with the singing of the hymn, "Lord of Our Lands." by the members, followed by Grace. said by Dr. G. Douglas Steel. The supper was prepared and served by the Wo- Irnon's Association.

A welcome to all members and visitors was given by the Presi- dent. Milton Barlihouse. who also gave the Armistice Day address. Solections by the Trinity Mlle Eight followed the recitation of "Flanders fields." by Dr. Milton Lowrle.

The meeting closed with I prayer for peace and the Bene- diction by Fred B. Gamble. secre- tary of the Charlottetown Y.M.C. A. Pianist for the mllslcsl part of the .pI"0;l'ImfI1E iwas O. K. Prcaby. with Walter loadcr. .

Brief Meeting Of City Council

All city officials and employees who participated in the arrange- ments for the Royal visit last week came in compliments at the .regular monthly meeting of the city Council last night.

Both Councillors C. M. Cox and Arthur Gormley remarked on the excellent manner in which Acting Mayor J. D. Stewart handled his assignment. In turn the Mayor paid tribute to the employees, par- ticularly. City Clerk James Ful- lerton. for what he termed a splendid job. City Police also came in for comment tion for their handling of traffic that day. Only ” business was transacted at the short meeting. A request was read from the Fire Chief for a clarification of traf- fic rules as applied to the Fire Department. It was stated that while discretion should be exer- cised at all times the vehicles. while proceeding to a fire. are not bound by ordinary regulations re- lating to traffic lights or other signals. However, it was pointed out that private cars following the fire engines must observe all the rules ever though they may be carrying firemen on the way to a fire.
