The arrangements for these increased sailings were recently conoiuded with the White Star and Cunard Lines by Sir Henry Thornton, president of the Nntlonal system.

That the Maritime Provinces are coming back, and that strongly in the Industrial spheres, Is Indicate by the carloadlng figures released by the regional headquarters on tlio Atlantic region of the Canadian National Railway here today. Up to date the carioadings originating In the AtJ.in-' tic toglon of the National syntom, which comprises the three Maritime Provinces, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island, from the first of the year Is 207.0OC, as against 191,800 for tho previous year, an Increase of 15.200 cars. On all sides the rejuvenation of llio Marltlmes Is apparent and tho coming year should one of tho biggest in the history of those provinces. Tho factors that go to make up this prediction we many, not tho least of which Is the spirit of optimism of the people and "tho revival of the pioneer Instinct. The Marltlmes played a great part In tho early history of and that they are about to ptey a greater part is the doduetlon to be nvde.

The Maritime Provinces make up Canada's eastern all-year-round Atlantic doorway, and this doorway has two of the finest harbors to be found anywhere, namely, Halifax and St. John. On the Industrial side orders for rolling stock by the Canadian National Railways In the Maritime Provinces have been placed to the value of two and a half million dollars. The steel plant at Sydney has received orders for steel rails from an American railway which, it Is reported, will keep the mills going full blast all winter. In addition to rolling stock ordered by the National system there have been ordered three hundred flat cars and three hundred coal cars.

In St. John, the sum of $5,000,000 has been provided for harbor work.

There is being expended for the creation of an air- port in St. John an amount In the vicinity of $100,000.

Between 160 and 200 men are now at work preparing the surface of the field fof aeroplane landings and departures. The Imperial. Oil Limited, In view of the great Increase In business In 1928 over 1927, will spend considerable new capital In New Brunswick during the coming year In Improving facilities for distribution of their products. They expect a greater year for 1929. The Isle Royale Hotel at Sydney, which has been In operation only for the season 1928 or a period of six months, reports a surplus, after paying fixed charges and a dividend of 7 per of $9,100.00.

Tourist trade In the Marltlmes this year has been the greatest on record and next year It is expected will exceed by a large amount the figures for the past season. Coal shipments from Cape Breton this year are expected to create a new record. The estimated figures being given as 2,900,000 tons. In 1923 there were only 1,400,000 tons shipped at Halifax. The Canadian National are constructing a new hotel and station which will necessitate an outlay of some millions of dollars.

There has been completed and now In use one of the finest Immigration handling facilities Ion the continent. Thfc Cunard and White Star Lines have arranged for Increased sailings from Halifax to London and Liverpool during the coming season. In all, there will be thirty-seven sailings eastbound.

Evening glorious Caribbean Days (Special to The Gazette.) New York, November 8. A news bulletin service In electric lights, 14,800 of them, began publication election night In Times Square and at the same time added a new corona of blazing brightness to the Gay White Way. It was a newsreel 380 feet long and five feet high, situated on the fourth floor cornice of the Times Building. In future, news of local, national and international interest will be flashed direct from the editorial rooms of The Times to the bulletin board when It begins nightly operation so that all In the neighborhood may read. The bulletins will be news of the world, as fast as telegraph, radio and cable bring the storiea to the editorial room.

Times Square has been watching for weeks the Installation of the massive copper studded with light bulbs, which girdles the four sides. of the building. On election night the Job was finished to the extent that tho sign could tell it, story of the voting to the multitudes Who gathered in the square below. It functioned without a hitch, and now work is progressing to complete an apparatus which will add security against possible breakdown and permit certain effects and uses never before accomplished with such a mechanism. WORDS SPELL OUT.

Simple in principle, the machinery by which the news can be flashed Is extraordinarily complex. The loiterer In Tiroes Square merely sees a word begin to spell Itself out, starting at the northwest corner of the bulb-studdod panel. The bulbs Just eastward light up In the shape of the letter and behind It a second letter appears. Thus a continuous flow of words appears, darting swiftly across the north side of the Times Building, progressing south on the east side, thenco across the south side and back, completing tho circuit. But behind the flow, on tho cable-meshed background and in the control room Inside tho building, a complicated process Is going on.
