New School ls " Opened At New Zealand

The community of New Zealand had a very pleasant and enjoyable afternoon and evening on August 4th. The occasion was the open- ing of their new school.

Two years ago the district had the misfortune to lose its school building by fire. Today it has one of the best schools in Eastern Kings from the standpoint of both building and equipment.

Despite the busy season a large. number of people from New Zea- land and the surrounding oom- munities, including Souris, were present.

The opening ceremony was in charge 0f Mr. Peter Conway. re- tired teacher. who had given many years of teaching service to the district. After an opening chorus. "The Island Hymn", by the older pupils, the Director of Education. Mr. L. W. Shaw. spoke commend- IHS the Trustees, the Building Committee and the people gener- ally on their splendid effort in Pfflvldlng such an admirable school. He reminded those prq. ent that the costs involved. while heavy. were really a sound invest- ment in the youth of the com- munity. He expressed the hope that surrounding communities might follow the good example set by New Zealand. Rev. Father Sinnott of Rollo Bay. Mr. H. J Hfmes. Supervisor of schools and others also spoke congratulating the people on having accomplish- ed so much in providing for the education of their children. Dis- tricts in Eastern Kings gonbgm- Plating new schools or new furn- lture would do well to pay a visit to New Zealand.

After the formal opening hm been completed with the singing of "O Canada" and the "National Anthem”. a splendid supper was served by the ladies in s. cool airy booth on the school grounds. Re- freshments and entertainment were also provided throughout the afternoon and evening.

A Bed Herring?

Meanwhile President Truman described the spy flurry on Capitol Hill as a “red herring" intended to veil Congressional inaction on his antLinflaticn program.

The President issued a statement. saying the public hearings on the Communists are “serving no useful purpose" and are “doing irrepar- able harm" to certain persons. l-le also said they are "seriously im- pairing the morale of Federal em- ployees and undermining public confidence in the Government.

Undeterred by the White House criticism. both committees went ahead with the investigations ‘hey began last week. stemming from the testimony of Miss Elizabeth T. Bentley. self-described former Communist spy.

tempt to force a settlement of the lake shipping strike.

The decision was taken here to- day at a meeting "of officials of T.L.C. organizations called by president Percy Bengough. The resolution endorsing the step was passed unanimously by the meet- irig.

Another resolution approved the 'I‘.L.C. executive's previous support for the striking Canadian Sea- man's Union and their attempts to get" a settlement.

The T.L.C officials met sepa- rately after the original meshing called by Mr. Bengough was in- vaded by representatives of some Canadian Congress of Labor un- ions and by a large number of rank and file members of_the C. S. U.

Many T. L. C. officials refused to attend the original meeting, some of them objecting specific- ally to the presence of CS. Jack- son. of the United Electrical Work- ers to whom Communistic symp- athies have been attributed.

plain the abundant crop of clover hay grovm on such soils.

Fertilizer of some kind is neces- sary to the growth of all plant life and the abundant grovrth of hay on fields freshly subjected to a treatment of mussel mud is re- garded as proof that the mud contaim valuable fertilizer ingred- ients. It is impossible to believe otherwise. Mr. Stewart said, when one stops to realize how much valuable rich top soil is washed ofi many Prince Edward Island farms during the spring thaws and freshets and carried into the rivers, creeks, and bays along the coast.

Mr.‘ Stewart said it would be found that the majority of those opposed to the mussel-mud treat- ment wcre farmers who had not applied the mud judiciously. A heavy spreading of coarse lime- stone would be just as injurious as s heavy cost of mussel mud. Both had to be put on the fields in reasonable quantities and work- ed well into the soil.

In the event of a. grant being received in time for the coming winter's operations. it was pos- sible that the Government would come to the financial assistance of any farmer groups wishing to build mud diggers. No dertlnite plans have yet been made and none probably will be made until the grant. becomes a certainty.

"Would you aim for the House of Commons or the Senate?" The Guardian asked.

"The House of Commons, of course." he rejoined instantly. "That is. of course, i.i a. New- foundland constituency chooses to elect me."
