Joe drove the two-year- old Mahion Hanover to a win in 2.04. which was the fastest heat trotted by a two-year-old this sea- son. He had previously won with the three-year-old Mighty sun at Goshen Grand Circuit meeting in 2.01 lye. Joe ended up by being one of the leading race winners at Dex- ington and had the honor of plac- ing Prince Jay in the 2.00 list with a. mark of 1.50 us. also 'aha.ring honors with Highland Ellen 1.60 U5. and Royal Blackstone 1.60 U5. and Highland Ellen 3.00 for World's fastest four heat race.

It would take columns to ohron- lcle all Joe's exploits this season but we may just mention that a couple of weeks ago he drove the three- year-old Darn Flashy to a. new track trotting record at Yonkers of 2.04 US and about ten days ago he lowered that mark to 2.04 MD with Martha Doyle. which remains the track trotting record. one of Joe's principal patrons is a Mr. Evans. who purchased seven yearlings dur- ing the Lexington sales, one by Scotland. two by Darnley. one by King's Counsel. one by Ensign Han- over, one by Titan Hanover, and one by Chief Abbedale.

Island Odds And Ends

.......

Any retail meat dealer in Can- ada should be able to ask a few cents more for island bacon and other pork products now that most of Canada is recognizing the superiority of island-bred hogs. Just to clinch the claim by West- ern Canada hog raisers that this little Province raises the finest stock in this country. Island breed- ers have swept all the champion- ships and other big prizes at the Toronto Winter Fair. in the hog carcass competitions. Western Canada tells us we have the best breeding stock. and Canada's arbi- est and most experience judges hand us the laurcls for the best carcasses. Island pigs may be pardoned an extra grunt of satis- faction for being winners all the way - from the cradle to the

The Department of Veterans Af- fairs, the National Employments and all affected branches of the Canadian Legion have worked out a plan to find employment for veterans in rural and remote areas who find it difficult to make both ends meet. For one reason or an- other many veterans are unable to obtain regular work or even sufficient work to maintain them- selves and families. The new plan will seek to assist those who have the will to work, and will recom- mend Veterans Allowances for those unable because of physical or mental condition to maintain themselves. it will be the respon- sibility of the various Legion branches to bring these problem cases to the attention of the Na- tional Einployment offices. and the Department of Veterans Affairs. These offices will then co-operate with the Legion branch concerned and concentrate on re-establishing the veterans who are in need of a helping hand. .

Early this week very few men were idle in and around Souris. Some farmers were just complet- ms potato digging; off shore fish- . or-men were still busy bringing in I hake and cod. and the town's two i mnneries. Eastern Packers and i Griffiths. were working steadily. ! The usual seasonal layoffs appear- i ed to be due for postponement at: least for several weeks. Even 1 when the layoffs do occur its seems l fairly certain that the numbers: seasonally given a holiday will be i far less than in former years. At In? rlle. anyone wanting to en- gage help in SourLs in recent days has been obliged to go for them.
