U I I Mourning doves ‘are quite common in Northern and East-

ern Kings Oounty th fall. One afternoon in late Sap ber I was driving along the gravelled high- way a. few miles east of Black Pond sanctuary when five bi-ns rose up from the aide of the road and flew over some nearby far-xi buildings. They resembled stream- lined pigeons and acted like a hawk in flight. I was positive thnt they were Mourning doves but was puzzled that five should be in one flock. Any doves‘ I had observed in the past were always single birds. Incidentally 1 hadn't spot- ted s. Mourning dove for a num- ber oi years. O I

A week later 1 saw s. pair of doves at Osble Head. I first saw them in a stubble field and when flushed they flew to s, potato patch. They passed within a iew yards o! me on the second flush. Roeently I have heard reports of Mourning doves having been seen quite frequently in the country east oi Souris. Last week a Souris sorots- man who knows his doves as well, if not better, as this columnist in- formed me that he saw a flock of l5 in a field at Rollo Bay early in October.

O O O

The first Mourning dove 1 evcr saw I picked up dead at Village Green Station. Some one, evid- ently a section man, hpd laid the bird in the coal bin. The next was observed several years later at Point Prim. It was sitting on a fence by the roadside" The third and lest was spotted five or six years ago and I can't remember off hand in what district. 1n tho past twenty years several have been brought in to me for irlent- iiicetion but up until this year doves have been definitely on the rare list.

Youthful Gunner Ilas Big Success

Harold Soulnler, 17-year-old gun- ner from North Ruatico, bagged three wild ducks with one shot earlier this week while on s hunt- ing trip at New Glasgow, P. E. I.

Lumber-men have told me that a horse has an inbred fear of bears and will sense their pres- ence long before any other dom- estic animal. One thing thot mado this particular farmer certain that his woodlot held an undesirable denizen was "the actions of ‘she farm dog. This mutt generally yapps his head off at anything strange or suspicious but on this particular night he was burning up the turf well ahead of the more in the race for the shelter of the stable.

Guinea Gold is a four-year-old by Frisco Dale, dam, Goldie Graiitan, and experts predict a very much faster record for him.

Vision-lite, the world's greatest sire, had. his 19th 2.00 performer (ten trotters and nine pacer!) when the four-yeax-old Mighty Medium took s time record at Lexington of 2.000. Mighty Medium became the tenth horse to go in 2.00 or faster this year and also became the first 2.00 performer for hie dam, Margaret Castleton 1.59 1-2. His driver was Franklyn Saiford, well known to Maritimers, and it was his second 2.00 mile, the oth- er being when he marked Knight Dream as a three-year-old in 1.59. There were nineteen 2.00 miles this year ~by ten different horses, fifteen miles by pacer: and four by trotters. The list of 2.00 sires for all time stands at 81.

Everyone is pleased that 81-year- oid Colonel E. J. Baker of St. Charles, lll., is getting back in

Critical Game Today In Intercollegiate Rugby Championship Series

There should be plenty of ae- tlon taking place over the S.D.U. gridiron this afternoon when the University oif New Brunswick and Saint Dunstan’: University rugby squads clash in the second last game of the N.B.-P.E.I. Intercol- legiate rugby ch ,.ionship series.

The encounter, which is sche- duled to get underway at three o'clock, will be the most import- ant one of the series for eiihsl‘ squad to date, as the future chances of either winning the series over the series-leading Mount Allison University aggregation will hang in the balance of today's final re- suits.

It will be the last game of the series for the Saints, and the second last tilt for U.N.B., who still have to meet Mount A. in {the final round next Saturday at Sack- ville.

The last time these two squads met was at Fredericton, N.B., on Ootober 8th when they battled it out to a socrelsss tiein a fast, rug- ged, l-iard-hittlng encounter, and it is expected that today's meeting will be another action-packed af- fair that will provide a thrill a minute fofl witnessing fans.

In the present, standing of the three teams to‘ date in the total point, home and home series, Mount A. are leading with iour points with one game to play. S. D. U. are in second place with three points and one game to play, while U.N.B. are in the cellar position with one point and two gameflo play. Saint Duncan's are the defending champions.

The U.N.B. team arrived in the city last evening and will be ail set and ready to go at the appoint- ed time, and both squads are ex- pected to be taking the field with pretty much the same lineups as in their previous encounter.

Pave Ice Surface ' 0f Summerside Curling Rink

The Ice area of the Summeralde Curling Rink is being paved.‘ The work is being done by Curraif and Briggs employees who are placing a concrete fill of some three inches over the 43 x l50 foot area of the rink. This fill will extend one half inch above the level of the three and one half miles of pipe. Topping the con- ercte will be one half inch of asphalt. This improvement will be completed by the opening date, set tentatively at November 29th.

This asphalt surface rln-k soon to be completed will be an ideal arena for roller-skating. boxing. wrestling, dancing, etc. This fine rln-k is not quite a year old. being

Abel- way is a pacing bred youngster by King's Counsel 1.58, from Edna Brewer 4, 2.00. He cost Mr. Baker $15,000. Mr. Baker campaigned King's Counsel and after vanquiji- ing everything in the pacing line he sold him to Gainesway Farm for a reputed $00,000. The dam of Steelway is Miss Greyhound. a sister to Greyhound 1.55 1-4. world's champion trotter and still owned by Colonel Baker.
