There are a lot of new horses in Qilfflec for the racing and it looks ke it should be a hot spot for this season's racing. Last year Richelieu raced 136 beats better than 2.10 and as many more were raced at Blue Bonnets.

The rink should be filled to the rafters. not only ft the V purpose of encouraging school-boy :- hockey. but as an expression. of tangible appreciation of the eifort which has made this winter's pro- gram possible. Brigadier Reid and a couple of loyal assistants have quietly and without fan-fare pro- vided more than 1.000 boys with a hockey program, not nus assed, I'm sure in any city in the country. The rink management. too, has gone all out to make this effort possible. Parents and friends of youth in Charlottetown and suburbs are greatly in debt for the services so effectively rendered.
