We are probably twenty-five years behind the times in our port facili- ties at Charlottetown and if we could get this work done, Mr. l-iynd- man believed it would probably be the one big project we could get under wsy here which would meet the unemployment problem At the suggestion of Mr. W.

BRIEF ON UHAR-IAYHETO HARBOUR FACILITIES

Under Section Number 18 of the Dimcan Report issued in September 1020. a Recommendation was made that the Dominion Public Works Department carry out an immediate Survey of Charlottetown Harbour, particularly as to Wharfage and Sun-age accommodation, with a view to adequate provision Ibeing made to meet the needs of the Port. it seems difficult to understand just why the City of Charlottetown has never pressed to have this most im- portant Recommendation carried into effect.

breaker. The improvement of the evening programs with the horse show in the new and. brilliantly lighted arena, the splendid vaude- ville program and last but not least the marvelous fireworks effects brought out enormous evening crowds.

The buildlngand exhibits were under the supervlaioir of Director Gordon Hughes. who made a great sumessofthishls flrstyear in that capacity. The grounds and buildings were thoroughly cleaned and the hundreds oi dollars which had been spent on paint, whitewash and labor produced an effect that caused most favorable comment. In this connection we may say that Mr, Von of the vaudeville convpany, stated that it was cleanest and most attractive plant he had seen in four years travel in the United States and Canada. Most of the plants he said had stop- ped repairs and refurbishing with the depression and not very much had been done since to improve their a oe.

Coming to the Exhibition proper. it is gratifying to know that al- though under new arrangement with the Federal Department of Agriculture at Ottawa some sections were eliminated from the prise list as not being in the best interests of the stock breeder yet our totil entries readied the 6,000 mark. from an educational standpoint our i034 Ihir may be well classed as one of the most successful. Every feature waa given careful attention from the smallest exhibit to the highest class of live stock.
