mica plllrlio health.‘ This light m a; Banatcrium has not been amat- ierfoia 10w months or years. For twfirty years we oi the medical pro- igsion have been fighting ior a Sanitarium. You can turn to speech- es in this House that I have made since -l became a member oi this Legislature; you can turn to speech- s_s_~thst- were made by the late Dr. l. it. Jlikins and by every doctor who has ever been a nembuf oi the house. and you will iind we have all been pressing ior this matter oi a ‘aaneicriulu. The Anti-tuberculosis Bociety has been lighting ior an institution oi this kind ever since its inception. I re- member when it was announced by the then Premier that Sir Char- lac, Dalton was going to give $20,000 tobuild- a Banatorium and $1,000 a year tomaintain it; and we thought we ‘had arrived somewhere. Sir Charles Dalton. in his generosity. undertook to build that Sanatorium. oi it costing him $20,000 it ended by costingi him $65,000; and Itill he paid ior it and equipped it. oeciuse he was bound that he would do something in his day and gen- eration to help iight the ravages oi this dread disease. And alter all that was done, during the exigencies oi the War it was iound that all avail- able hospital room was needed; no one knew how long the War was go- lngto last and in this Province, as in‘ other Provinces, all those institu- tions available were iumed over to ilicDominion Government and trans- ‘iornied into convalescent hmnes ior aickiand wounded soldiers. The Dal- tonflailatoriuni was one oi them. They took over the building, re- modelled‘ and enlarged it to such an extent that atrthe endpi the War, when it was handed back, it was round-to be in such a condition that no provincial Government could op- crate cit on account oi the expense. and at that. time Sir Charles Dal- ton again wanted to do all that he could. 8e wanted to see this building which he had built put in operation l0 that It would be oi some service to the sick and suiierlng; so he got the Provincial ‘Gave. ment persu- aded to send this delegation to Ot- tows. It was at Sir Charles’ request. as the Ministerbi Agriculture told us, that they proceeded to Ottawa. Ami what happened at Ottawa? 1

that the Minister even leit that muting. to go and wire to the~Prem-

ier- if he would be authorized to give any estimate oi what the Province would ‘accept.

Dr. McMillan: 1 have proven li. irom your own statements! (Ap- plause). - _

lion. Mr. Lea: You have done nothing oi the kind.

Dr. McMillan: 1 have done more than that. I have proven that the assertions which my hou. irlend the Minister oi Agriculture made in the Drait Address are contradicted by the assertions which be made in his Budget speech. (Applause).

That chm‘! how well informed the Min- ister oi Agriculture can be on occa- Sill“! 1i he was as well informed when necessity demands it as he is on other occasions, he would prob- ably be a little better oii today, so iar as the sanatorium is concerned. Ami I say that that was typical oi’ the hon. gentleman's attitude, so h: as public health is concerned. One oi the iineat organizations in this Province ‘is the nee Cross ‘Society. I can .emembcr oi delegations from that Society going to theBell Gov- ernment. oi which he was a ‘ . and twing to get ‘a money grant to carry on their operations in this Province. D6 you think the Bell Cov- ernment would ever give us a. cent? Nol And the clilei objector was the Minister oi Agriculture. (Applause).

Dr. McMillan: ‘that is correct, and I can prove it.

Dr. Mchlillani That is a little too old ior you. is it? It is not as old as the Dalton Sanatorium. because it occurred in the last year or two that you were in power. (Applause). And I can tell my hon. iriend more than that. Delegations irom the Children's _Aid Society went beiore the Dell Government ior the purpose oi getting .a little grant.

with Yarmcuth was probably equal to any, team in the Maritime prov- inces. With the proper spirit dis- played it is hoped to wrest the Mal-ii time title iron-i its present resting place this coming season.

The hockey team, although start- ing out in practice in poor iorm. per- severed, and went iar beyond the ex- pectations oi the most cptomistlc due to splendid sacrifice by the play- ers and excellent coaching by Roy Prowse. Ii proper steps are taken the latter may next year be not only coach. but also manager and a meni- ber oi the team. It is not too much to say that the Abegwcits are the amateur hockey champions oi the Marltimes. Many teams are, while hiding under the skirts oi amateur- ism. undoubtedly as proicssicnal as their cities can aiiorrl.

The Abegwelt Club is one oi which all should be proud. For almost ior- ty years it has taken a leading part in Maritime athletics. The names oi Island athletes are emblazoned on the roster oi cvery university in the country. The club has the endorse- tion oi every citizen oi reputc'in the city- Its aim is to develop mentally and socially as well as physically.

His Worship Mayor Proivse in opening, told an interesting story re- gardin; the "Vic" hockey team oi’ which he was a member in 1900. The citizens oi Charlottetown have always been notable ior the moral and iin- ancial backing given their teams. The games played last winter were marvellous. There was no loaiing and real hockey was displayed.

Dr. I. J. Yeo, Past President oi lhe Abegweit Club, congratulated the members oi the three teams present ior their successes. The foot- ball revival during the last season was notable. Under-lhe ‘able direc- tion oi Professor 'McDonald a good team was built from which much is expected this year. Under the able coaching oi Roy Prqwse the hockey team won a high place in the Mari- time play-oiis. An athlete's work should always be his ilrst considera- tion and his athletics second. 1t would be iar better to drop a. game than to permit, it to drag the in- dividual into habits oi dissipation. As a model Dr. Yeo reierred to the late Dr. Bab Donahue, a splendid example oi an athlete, one noted ior his accomplishments, ior his stam- ina, and ior his sportsmanship. While attending McGill University he ivas the all-round Intercollegiate C m- pion oi Canada ior iour yea in succession. At the same time he stood high in his studies and was "the hieet wonderful and likable character I have ever known."

Past President Jack Stems re- marked on the successes attending the past. seasonLs sport. and also on the, abundancebi splendid material in sight ior coming seatsons bcspcak- ing continued successes in iuturc years. '

The Montreal dispatch oi April 3rd, published recently, was in error in stating the "Electrics" were Que- bec and Maritime Ladies Hooks;- Champions.

The Quebec team never COmpGie‘ with any Maritime team, and their lore could not claim the Maritiin championship. '

The Crystal Ladies have aiviily been ready to play any team avail- able, have deieated the leading Mari» time teams at Charlottetown, MDllC- ton, Halifax, Dartmouth, and otlzc. centres, and have been undeieategi ior three years. Their total score

this season was 33 goals to 3 scored,

against them. The Crystals, there- fore, can claim. and rightly so, the Maritime ladies championship.

The Crystals made every reason- able eiiort to compete ior the Can- adian championship this year. Nego- tlatlons were made ior a. match be- tween the Crystals and the Quebec champions in Montreal, on March 31st, the winners to play the On- tario champions at the Montreal Forum, April 2nd. A representative oi the Crystals, while in Montreal, was given to believe by the Mont- real Hockey‘ Committee, the expens- es oi theCrystals could be satisfac- torily arranged by the Committee. However. alter some persistent ei- iort he learned these expenses were standing in the way, and he again pressed the claim oi the Crystals. and agreed to go iiity iiity on the expenses. Later, as ho understood

even this share oi the expenses was-

apparently holding up the definite arraligelnents ior the match, he told the Montreal Hockey Committee that the Crystals would look aiter their own expenses, which nere very licavy. amounting to approximately $600.00. lie was tllcn informed that they could not guarantee the iorum to be available on account oi.’ the possibility. of it being needed ior the Stanley Cup ilnals, on March 31st. The Crystals thcn oiicred to play the Northern Electrics any hour oi the morning, aiternoon or night, Monday or Tuesday (March 31st or April 1st) in any rink. 'I‘l1c Morit- rcai Committee then made the ex- cuse that it was impossible to get the Forum in the aiternoon. It is hard to take this as a real valid ex- cuse. Surely the Forum could have been secured ior the Crystals ior only one liour in either the morning, afternoon or night oi Monday, Tues- day or Thursday i! any real eiiort had been made to give the Maritime team onc chance. Notice how. easily. the Patterson Pats secured it ior‘ Thursday afternoon to play only an- other Ontario team.

Maritime hockey fans, now having tlic above information, will doubtless be oi the opinion that the best sportsmanship that one Canadian lwes to another was not meted out to the Crystals’ eiiorts to compete in Montreal ior the Canadian cham- pionship, even when they were ready to pay all their expenses, and to play

Maritime people will resent, not only the Montreal team claiming the ltlrirliime Championship, but their claiming a Canadian Championship, when a team from this section oi Canada is refused the opportunity oi competition. ,

Parties who have seen the Ontario and Quebec teams in their prelimin- ary matches know the Crystals could have given a good account oi ihcnl- selves, and had every confidence they would have. ii just given the chance, deieated the Upper Canadian team.

Why is a team ironi the Maritime Provinces shut out from Canadian championship competition? 1s this Canadian iair play?
