- xTme Abegweit Management are .14: be higibly commended for the Athletic meet staged on Saturday it their grounds.

Although only a handful of cus- oomerg were on hand 1o watch the boys perform, it was no doubt the smallest gathering of fans ‘that ever jrltnessed a sport event in Charlot- tetown. but those who won't were not disappointed and remainfll and applauded until the inst event was 11m off.

l! was surely poor encournRe- mam not only for the boys Wilt) took part ‘but fol- ‘tlle lnanageilleilt that they took such great interest, in the staging of this meet and} [pared no pains to have evelgvthini!‘ go through wlzhuut a hi ch.

Flo's-over the Abegweit officials if, soul-sun i iilvvvlraged at the lack of inn-wet on the part of the public, received good encouragement from the material on hand for the future track and field events of ‘PuE. isl- anB. -

The boys who performed Satur-

day afternoon certainly ‘showed cv-

ery quality of being yet TEEN“ -; boaters. in fact the showing so much impressed the Ailegwcits as to have Mrgwilliam linipenny who needs no introducing to the people of Charlottetown or tile sporting world of the ‘Maritime-s, Canada or in fact ‘the world. to take the boys

‘under ills Wing for t. time and » coach them along. Mr. "l-lakvenny ' is willing and so are the boys, s0

the old grounds will once again - hike on the look as of old.

It was regrettable that ollr great athlete, Mr- Phil McDonald was prevented from taking part in the‘ events on ‘Saturday. Phil had the nriyfortune of losing all his running

teflal cups, and medals which

e won at Summerside on July 1st also his watch. .Ali were locked in

‘his suit case and left in his car in Summerside, Phil says he can win mole cups and luerlals but would at least have his two pair of spike shoes back.

Special honors is certainly due the high point getter of the day. Mr. Fred Holl, who took five ev- ents for a totui of twenty-five points.

> highly successful, and an the years

roll around the banquets will bs- come more popular and a. larger at- tendance of returned men will take advantage of meeting his follow comrades of the world war around the festive board.

At 9 o'clock sharp the parade formed up and headed by Comman- der Appetite proceeded by the shortest route to the dining hall, where the Victoria Hotel manage-

Halifax Posesses Service Desired

“Courtesy nnd-‘servfce has been our vlatchword and I- believe that we have all loyally lived up to it." stated Sir Henry Thorunton, Prea- ident of the Canadian National Railways, during an inspection tour of Ontario. That these essential qualities of progress and ultimate achievement—- when relative to public oorvlce~hnve been an in- herent part of the Canadian Nat- ional Railways System, was easily upparent to those who enjoyed the premier run of the new train-the "Acadian" which was inaugurated last Monday to supply the Mont- real-Halifax route. ‘

On its maiden trip, this train drew out from Halifax at 8.10 a. m. June 27th. with a comfortable pas- senger liat. including a number ‘of Maritime Newspaper me . who were the guests of the C. N.

Lodge and young son, Moncton; Angus MacLean, President of the Bath- urst Co., Ltd., C. P. Ruickbie. Sec- retary of the Canadian Pulp nnd Paper Association. Bathurst and threes bridal couples.

Among Canadian National offic- ials making the trip were J. D. MacNutt, Asst. Supt, Campbelltull; Ernest Cameron. Supt. Sleeping and Dining Car, Dept., Halifax, who was a dining car employee when the Ocean Limited made its maiden trip from Halifax to Mont- real 22 years ago; H. C. MacFnr- lane, District Passenger Agent ' at Halifax. and George C. Allen, tra- velling baggage agent, Monctoll. The Maritime newspaper repre- sentatives on board were:—A. F. MacDonald.
