I took a chance with hlm and several others. The names of my pick were placed in an envelope and handed to Dr. McFatridge. It was almost like taking candy from a kld, the four winners were Alice Hal, who had not lost a race that year, the 2.20 pace, Bud, the three year old trot, Mayor Todd the 2.35 trot and Oakley H. the 2.21 trot. Among the souvenirs collected was a fifteen-stone diamond horse- shoe pin.

Next we hear from Keith Bos- well, a companion in arms of the writer and now a very suc- cessful farmer in Victoria, so much so that Royal Feeds used a photographic reproduction of a pasture scene showing part of the Ayrshire herd on Keith Boswell and Sons, Lealands, Victoria, on their calendar for 1950. The beautiful cattle were certainly worthy of being pictured there. Keith has always had a great in- terest in horses and years ago owned Commodore Boy, one of the most beautiful sons of the Kentucky sire, Vice Commodore. We had the pleasure of owning him afterwards and he was an eye-ful.

Keith writes Although I am very much interested in Ayr- shires I still like a good horse and at present have two nice fillies, both sired by Abner T. Clegg 2.04 1-2, dam, Martha Forest 2.12 by Symbol S. Forest 2.01 1-2. They are both black, well grown. and the older one —which will be two years in May -has very attractive white mark- ings. I think they are bred on the dam’: side just a bit differ- ent to most of the Cleggs as we have very few brood.mares in l-he Mariiimes sired by Symbol S. Forest. He was a great sire of pacers and is the sire of Symbol Gantle 2.01 1-2, now a very suc- cessful sire in the U.S.A. This farm has produced some fairly good ones, especially Miss Vic- toria 2.l4, dam of June Morning 2.09 2-5, Lealands, Joe V010, that black colt by Bellini Scott, dam. Miss Possibility, which unfortun- ately was burned during Old Home Week, 1941. Billy Conn was also born here. We are banking heavily on the two youngsters I mentioned and hope they will turn out as expected Thanks, Keith, glad to hear from you.

Lost year it was announced that a’ new night racing plant was being built near Toronto but the project evidently fell through. Now it is definitely set for start- ing July 2nd. Some of Ontario's best known horsemen, headed by Herbert E. Hatch. long identified with the breeding and racing of standard breds. Ind president of the Canadian Trotting Association, will direct the new company. Others are men of means and dis- tinction whose presence on the Board of Directors is assurance that everything will be done in top form. A 42 nights race meet- lng is planned starting on July 2nd. .

For years Mr. Hatch has been one of the most forward breed- ers in Ontario, owning good sires and brood mares and producing from the-m good trotters and pac- crs. Last season he raced Gus Hanover 3. 2.06.'and won several races with him. At present hc has Goodwill Dean at Dufferin Park, where we noticed he had won three races and locked very promising. Ill brood mares he has Margaret Grsttan 4th, by Grattarl Bars; Prue Scott by Scotland, dam, Prue Gratian; Spencetta by

Spencer; Hollyrood Hannah by Mr. McElu/yn; Goodwill Pamela by Laurel ’ Hanover 1.59 1-2;

Babe Grattan by Grattan Direct; Exquisite by Volomite; Goodwill Denise by Follow Up; Goodwill Sandra by Peter McKi1lop; Holly- rood Pamela by Hollyrood Prince; Jssica Herbert by Mr. Van; Lou Spencer by Gene Spencer; Pine Ridge Jennie by His Royal Ma- jcsty; Princess Dewey by Admiral Graitan; Scudda Hay by Elmer Hanover and the iwo-year-old Ma- jesty Babe by His Royal Majesty, dam, Babe Grzittan. He also has six weanlings, or rather 1950 year- lings, and a ilwo-year-old Goodwill Ann, by Goodwill Dean out of Exquisite. Last‘but not least he has Peter McKillop, that became a 29-year-old on the first of Janu- ary. '1 believe he is the last surviving son of the famous Peter the Greet 2.07 1-4. .

Mn-Hltch fakes a great inter- est in this horse and he is cared for in every way so as to make his life u pleasant and as pro- longed u possible. We wish we had space to give more informa- tion regarding the breeding of the above. We don‘t know of a farm in Canada that possesses such a wealth of potential race material and m congratulate the owner and trust that his faith and love of horses will be repaid by the pleasure he receivx in the performances of his irctiers and pacers. t

Spencer Scott 4, 1.57 1-4, world's champion trotting stallion, died at Hcnove! Shoe Farms last Sun- day, January 22nd. He was thir- teen years old and was the sire of Rodney 1.57 2-5, Egan Rollover 1.59 and the $72,000 yearling Im- perial Hanover, as well as many others.

filyTire Alarm ' System Ouimoded

‘The fire-fighting equipment; i; working very satisfactorily and the alarm system is also working as satisfactorily as can be expect- ed, but it is outmoded and is not adequate for a city the size or Charlottetown", stated Fire Clliiei Herbert Jewell in his report at the City Council meeting last night.

The Department responded to 167 fire calls during the year, 55 0r which could be classed as genersl alarms. Total fire loss in the City during this period amounted to $72,498.92.

"The two lnain causes attribut-

able to a large number of fires were carelessness and neglect, and careless Cigarette smoking", the report states. “The former were HCCOI-mted for by many people fail- ing to have their chimneys clean- ed. and by their neglect in re- placing old defective stove pipes, and not exercising the necessary precautions where stove pipes p355 through walls or floors to chim- ncys_ The latter, that oi’ cigarette smoke fire is caused by the lhOT-lshtlessness of tnany persons 6150051118 0f their cigarette but-ts. Other outstanding causes of fires during the year were sparks from chimneys, defective oil bumcrs and faulty electric wiring."

Other Details

The average attendance of De- partment members at fires during the year was 87.4 per cent. The Department laid 14,650 feet of two inch hose and used the booster tank 68 times. The pilmpers were in operation 56 hours and the led- der truck used 060 feet of ladders during the year. I

Largest fire loss during the year was the Tweel Building in Fob- ruary, reported the fire chief. oth- er two large losses were thi- Rob- ert Simpson Company and the Canadian Oil Company. both of which were checked

The inadequacy of the existing school accommodation in Char- lottetown and the necessity of new construction is pointed out in the report of the Board of School Trustees submitted at .i.he annual meeting of the City Council last night.

During the year considerable thought has been given to the fu- ture needs of the City education- ally. the report states. Tentative plans are being prepared for sub- mission to the Council in this connection.

Details from the report follow: The number of pupils enrolled

December was as follows: Prince Street School 209 boys, and 307 girls, total 606.

West Kent School, 275 boys, and 180 girls, total 455.

Queen Square School, 674 boys, total 674.

Rochford Square School, girls, total 562. Total 2297.

This shows an increase of 34 pupils over the previous yeiir.

The number of teachers em- ployed was as follows-

Prince Street School. 20; Wes‘. Kent School, 20; Queen Square

111

5B2

School, 22; Rochford Square School, 17; Domestic Science teach- er, 1—toial 80.

Supplements

The amount paid as supplements by the Board to teachers’ salaries was $71,436.50, less deductions for Teachers’ Pension System $1091.50 and deductions for the Blue Cross of $833.30 or $69,511.70 net.

At the entrance examinations to Prince of Wales College in June last Mr. Robert Nelson. a pupil of West Kent School, made higher marks than that of any other pupil in the Province and was awarded a prize of $25.00 by this Board.

At the closing exercises in June last the following pupils were awarded the Governor Generals Bronze Medals for proficiency:-- Prince Street School, llllss Con- stance Marleeflwarren; West Kent School, Mr. Karl Real-don and Mr. Frank Weatherby; Queen Square School, Mr. Terence Char- les McWade; Rochford Square School, Miss Florence Irene Mac- Innis.

During the year the usual de- corations were made in the in- terior of the four schools. and repairs made where necessary to Prince Street School and West Kent School. and the boilers kept in repair. The boilers in both these schools are beginning to show signs of their age, but it is hoped that with care they will last a few years longer, but as thcy were installed in 1923 too much more cannot be expected of them. All boilers in the City Schools are inspected every year by a representative of an insur- ance company.

New School Room

When school opened in Sap- tember, it became evident on ac- count of increased enrolment in Prince Street School, that a new room would have to be open- ed in the basement of that school. This necessitated a new floor, lighting and heating equip- ment and decorations as well as furniture which made necessary considerable additional unexpect- ed expense.

Manual training has been suc- cessfully carried on at West Kent School by Mr. LeBaron E. Tait. He gave instruction from the 1st of January to the 30th of June to 96 boys from Prince Street School and 89 boys from West Kent School, and from September to De ber to 91 boys from Prince Street School and 73 boys from West Kent School. While st Queen Square School similar in- struction was given by Mr. John Danton during the same periods to 261 and 279 boys.

During the early part of the first school term training in do- mestic science was given in Prince Street School, West Kent School and Rochford Square School by members of the stafif. The De- partment of Public Works of the Provincial Government handed over to the Board the domestic science equipment which up‘to that time was in use in Prince of Wales College. This splendid silt was much appreciated, and is now being used for the instruction of the girls from the above three schools.

The Board was fortunate in

securing the services of Miss Jeanne W. Simmons. B.Sc., a gra- duate in Home Economics from Mount Allison University. who opened the kitchen on the 12th of October, and has since given in- struction i0 119 girls from Grade 7, and 86 girls from Grade 8 from the three schools. There are twelve periods of in- struction a week, and class per- iods are of 1 1-2 hours each. Con- sidcrable expenseflwere incurred for electrical equipment and plumbing changes. but it is felt that the opening of this kitchen is a real step forward.
