We had s few words wit i - mie Power over the phon: Jnlrlild Jimmie said it was the most enjoy. able trip he had ever taken, that the horsemen were n11 grand m. lows and would take all kinds oi‘ trouble to show one anything that. was for sale. Each colt was led alongside of a pony and the an. nouncer would call out to got heady shortly after they leave the quarter pole. Just be- fore the eighth pole was reached he would call another warning, then everybody would click their watches and click again at thr wire. Believe it or not, said Jimmie, all kinds of those colts could step eighths better than 16 seconds and Bill Stewart's and Sweeney's colts stepped in l5 sec. onds or a. shade better. It was really a treat to see how they had been trained and mannered. They acted like old fashioned horses and not like colts.

The York, Pa, plant is a m“. nlficent one, government owned, and every year a great Exhibition is held here. It is ideal for the purpose of a sales mart because there is every convenience. The auctioneer is he same one as an. nounces on the Lucky Strike Hour and he would sing all the an-

nouncements which made it verv interesting to listen to. As a bit of variety ever now and again, a trunk would e put up, sort of a blind buy, and sometimes one would bring quite a figure andi perhaps there would be a lot ofi worthwhile stuff in it or erhaps just a scraper or some ot er lin- tle item of harness horse equip- ment that was not worth any- thing. Tllat of course would bring a big laugh from the audi- ence. Just little tricks to ndri amusement and keep the crowd from being bored. .._Q_

Jlmmiesaid the Quebecers were there in force. their pockets full of money and they were not alone by any means, as some good buy- ers were down from Maine. Every- one seemed to think that the sport was in for an era of great rosperity and this was reflected n the good priccs‘ paid for any‘ likely horse or colt. Jimmie and‘ Mrs. Power and Walter I-fennes- sey came back by plane and had a lovely trip.

Four of them were brought from Tops- ham, Maine, by Vernie Irving of. Shediac Cape, who made the sel-i ections himself. Each horse is well, known for past performances and‘. if you take the trouble of look-l in; them up you will find that they have had excellent racing records. They include the pacer Sandy l“., 2:10, by Sandy Flash. the trotter Judge, 2:07, by Ti-uax. 2:03 1-2. This horse had seven winning brackets in 1943, Jennie Hanover, trotting record 2:07, pac- ing record 2:09. This mare is in foal to Follow Up, 2:00 1-2, one of the most noted harness horse sires in the Eastern United States. His colts have been showing up wonderfully well the past two years, two of them, Seven Up and Pick Up taking marks oi 2:05 3-4 and 2:02 respectively. The fourth purchase made by Mr. Irving was Calumet Fieber, bay horse with a record of 2:05 on the trot and 2:09 1-2 on the pace. He bought him just before he was raced at Topsham, last week and had the pleasure of seeing him win first money.

Kennel Club Discusses

Plans For Field Trials

Field trials. chief for Bird Dogs was strongly moot i at a meeting of the Charlottetown Kennel Club held last evening. Holding of such trials should prove a popular move in view of the fact that this Pro- vince already has a programme in force to increase the bird populat- ion. If the trials were held here it would in no wsy decrease the bird population before sufficient numbers are available, it was also stated.

Such an event would mark the first time that it was ever held in the Province. Also. it was stated during the course oi? the discussion, that with the holding of such trials it would sound the keynote that Prince Edward Island could become another Pelee Island which is so well known to Canadian Sportsmen and in addition in due course oi time would add impetus to the tourist trade.

It was the consensus of opinion that such a move would receive fullest consideration. Much work is necessary in planning a. success- ful one and it is hoped that this can be achieved and will meet with the same success as the bench Shows have met with ln their two years of operation here. .

The matter of a wiinter programme was also discussed b-y secretary, Dr. Geo. C. Bishop. A Kennel Club uet will also likely be held and

that prominent mein in the do! business will be heard here durins the winter months on Eefleilc! dell‘ ing with the improvement of dog breeding in the province-

Ah peoplg interested are invited to join the Club and add to we success that the Cluib is already en-

joying.

Large Victory Loan Meeting lit Emerald

The Victory Loan meeting atl Emerald last flight was a. big sue-l, cess in every way. The speeches were of exceptional merit and the var- ious speakers received unsiinted applause from the large audience present which Mr. Ernest Haslam, the chairman, estimated was well over 200 persons when all ha gathered as some, owing to pressure of work vvrre a little late in arriv- lng. But the fact that they came, is a sure sign this District intends, to d0 its full share in the present| campaign. I

The first speaker was Lt. H. P.‘ Tlmmons of the Royal Canadian Navy and his graphic description of the part the Navy played in the invasion of France left ii deep im- pression on his listeners.

The chairman then introduced Warrant Officer Hillel-y Moynaugh of Emerald who is home on leave after completing 29 operational flights over Europe. He received a prolonged ovation from the aud- ience.

Father Eugene Murray gave one of the most outstanding Victory Loan talks of the present Iioan and in closing said there were still sulne_ people to whom the war seemed| iilr off and that it was a seed thing for us to actually hear some of the things told by LtTllnmflllfi and he also referred to the eXlJel" iences of Warrant Officer Moy- naugh.
