of st james in chalottetown during our sunday visit to the is land it was the privilege of a num ber of the news men to visit that church but to none of the visitors was- the occasion quite so important as it was for the tribune editor and mrs nolan the preacher at the kirk i rev bussel somers who is known to a number of stouffville people while his wife is the former jessie walls rev mr somers is outstanding among the ministers on the island and every sunday afternoon is heard over the air which we learned was a very popu lar broadcast it was also our pleasure to visit the kirk house where mrs somers presides a delightful home in such competent hands is a pleasant place to visit our hostess had no end of enquiries tabled so that she would not over look news about old friends back home lobster shipment 70000 the lobster catch down by the sea is a lucrative business at the present time as always when the lobsters are willing to be caught in plentiful numbers one afternoon we were driven from charlotte- of lined the press to a lobster dinner it was topped off with cocktails and oysters on the halfshell not everybody can face up to a big red lobster lying on the plate well they are very nice to eat but we just dont like the method of killing the crablike lobster is dumped into boiling hot water which is sure and undoubtedly quick death so we imagine there is no cruelty shown although it looks a bit inhuman to kill by this method before leaving the island some of the party were privileged to see lobster being loaded for export to the united states going to the new york market ten truck loads had a valuation of 70000 by the time those ten loads are consumed they will have cost the eating public double that amount thoe deluxe trains special cpr train from mon

competitive service that the worst crank could find little to complain about out to sea on a destroyer one of our ambitions in making the trip to the atlantic coast was to go abroad a submarine and a

vessels put through her man- oeuvres at 20 knots per hour it was j smooth sailing but at 30 knots or jmore the sailors will tell you they just dont like it themselves so vou i can realize what an
