keeping the enemy from going them one better. The pitchers were not entirely to -blame for the Wednesday evening loss.They gave up only eight hits, but walked six. The infield buckled like a worn- out shoe in the second and fifth innings. All eight errors were committed by the inner circle. . o e .

This boy Meier who plays in c. short field is going to give every- one a battle for the Island Lea- gue batting championship this year. We've seen him lay down It perfect bunt along the third y base-line. place a Texas Leaguer between the two defence lines. and hit long bails 'beyond the reach of the fleetest outfielders. a He does them all .weil.

The Abbie Intermediates have t, won two games in a row now. and on their showing in Summer- side Wednesday look as if they y will he very much in the fight for the Island League champion- ship. In fact. both Holmsn's and the Intermediate Abbies showed a lot of defensive strength in that game. . e

We were sorry to see Willis l-lcnncssey receive a broken nose in his collision at the plate with Syl Bernardln the game at Sum- merside. Willis is as game as they come. His questioning of plate umpire's decisions some- times brings dnwn upon him the ire of the fans rooting for the other side. and he is the butt of considerable razzing. but, after all, colorful hall players generally do take a riding from the oppos- ing fans. He has a strong will to win. and tho Abbies will miss their izame little catcher. We hope he will suffer no permanent fa- plai disfigurement. and that he will be back in there very soon taking issue with the ump! 0" balls and strikes and playing his usual up-and-at-'cm Wile 95 ha” game.

The fine work of Vance Harris. pin, ng with I-lolmanls Inter- med ates. is proof of the old adage: "There are better fish in the sea than ever was caught-" Curran & Briggs had so many promising young ball players this spring that Vance got lost in the shuffle.

The Bessboruuglt Shield is given this year for a Mapping Competit- ion. The requlrements for this Competition were sent from Dom- inion Headquarters aitd each Province sent. their winning Map to the National camp where these maps will be on display.

We are sorry that more Compan- ies did not enter this competition. as there were only two entries from the Province. However, Miss Jessie Fullerton, the examiner was quite pleased with the entries re- ceived and felt that these compan- ies had done it very good job and taken a keen interest lit the woria She also felt that it similar com- petition might be held again when more Companies would enter its more interest is needed in outdoor guiding. The winning map was from the 7th Charlottetown Com- pany (Trinity Church) and this map will be forwarded to the Nat- ional Camp at Ottawa July 14th to 26th.

for her time and interest irt Judg- ing these maps.

On Saturday, July Zlst the First Class Hike was held to Neil Mathe- son's residence at soutltport. Ten Guides with their escorts were on hand to cook a well balanced meal. The examiners Mrs. Myron Bell and Miss Heather Lantz inspected the Guides uniforms and fires and sampled the food cooked. After the meals were finished the grouds were inspected for cleaning tip. The examiners felt that many of the Guides needed more pract- ise in cooking over fires and in or- ganization. so that their meals would be served hot and in proper order. First Aid kits (which are to be made up by the Guides them- selves) are also very important. and should include things required for hiking accidents (especially burns) Following are the Guides who passed their First class Hike; Lois Good. Sylvia MacGee. Joyce Mac- Kie. Theresa Gallant. Eleanor Gregory, Winnifred Hogan.

We wis htn thank Mrs. Bell and Miss Lantz for their time and in- terest in passing this test.

(By James

The next morning when we start- ed our four day "mush" to white- itorse (110 miles). Pat and I started out cheerfully on our long walk. I weighed 240 lbs. leaving Bkagway. We had had I lazy time on the boat up coast. The food was extra special and I put on about ill pounds. That was expended on the first day on the trail to the "sum- mit." of the White Pass (7.0 miles). The. elevation is 2880 feet - an average of nearly three per cent.

The train had two engines for the pull to the summit. It was ap- proaching the last of March. All the snow of the winter was still on the ground, excepting the small amount which may have evaporated into the air by reason of hrlkht sunlight, which made the days quite warm, but the nights were -quite cold - as low as thirty degrees be- low zero.

My brother who was more af- fluent, had gone ahead to White- horse by train. He had a large handsled and provisions ready for the 330 mile trip over the White Pass Co.'s winter stage route when we arrived at Whitehorse. The Company ran three six horse stages a week overland to Dawson. The road was as smooth as a boulevard.

A mere sclntilla of snow would fall each night which soon packed to the consistency of ice: Many used bicycles. The traction was good but the heavy pedaling up the long grades was overpowering and we saw many bicycles thrown by the wayside. There were also coats and many items of excess

baggage thrown aside. Several had dog teams. They made last time.

The first day out was the hardest i for me. If I stopped. the uscles in the back of-the legs got very stiff and acre. The only alternative was to go casy - and keep going - to stop means misery. I slowed tip during the last four or five miles. and Pat went on ahead to look out some habitation for the nittht. Near the summit I came to a rail- way repair crew's "dugout" - in which there was it above and II small table and some two inch planks for benches.

Pat was lord of the manor, with it good fire on, and in a happy state of mind. He even burst into song with the appropriate old ballad. "Any old place I hang my Hat is Home Sweet. Home." It. was quite a. bleak outlook for it night's rest. but Pat's good humor was infect- ious. We had a meal of the pro- vender which we packed from Skag- way. and both of us stretched on wide planks. placed with it slight elevation at one end.

Strange to relate. I was refresh- ed and rejuvenated in the morn- ing. Lying on the hard plank took the soreness out. of the muscles. After it week on the trail every day the uric acid which makes the stricture in the leg muscles will be dissolved by natural process, and one can walk without impediment.

To the casual observer. "mush- ing” would seem to require no sup. erior technique, but there are sev- eral Ways and means by which en- ergy can be conserved and stamina

most important requisite. Heavy boots or shoes are not nearly as good as buckskin or moosehide moc- casina which do not. cramp one's feet. If one has to carry I pack of grub. even if it is only five pounds or less. some sort of packatrap should be improvised and the weight placed on one's back between the shoulder blades in order to be able to swing both arms freely.

Carrying a. parcel by hand, even if it. is only two or three pounds will become irkwme on tt long march. A walker is called a "mush- er" almost exclusively in the North- west. and Alaska. "Mush" is the Angiicimd way of saying the French word "Ma.rche” (Marsh) and ”musn on" is the English way of saying ”Mareltons" (March on) (let us go along). It probably dates back to the days of the voyttgeui-5 and couriers du bots of French explor- ation.

Beginning it long "mush" one should go easy on the first few days, get, inured gradually. Cover- ing a lot. of trai. on the first or second day is a bad mistake - might lay a. person up for 1 week - especially for one over ordinary weight. Men of small stature have a big advantage in it long "mush". That theory was well tested en masse during Sherman's famous march in the American Civil War. His at-my consisted of men about 140 lbs. or under. Big men, whether corpulent or of athletic build are at a disadvantage.

There were road houses at con- venient places, about 28 to 30 miles, apart. We had a good sized sicdi and ample provisions for the jour-i

etc. The nine long sunny days made the trip very pleasant. There was at least twelve hours daylight at that time. The changes in hours of darkness and daylight and vice vents come on quite fast. In spring- time when the sun is first visible over the hilltops about the middle of February after being out of sight for more than three months, the days lengthen quickly.

By May 20th there is twenty-four hours daylight although the sun is "down" for a few hours. one may read newsprint at midnight. Pat went on ahead of us and must have gone fast - we never saw him afterwards. He-was very kind and soiicttous for my welfare on our mush from Skagway to Whitehorse.
