     It Charlottetown with the opening 
     
     night the latter part of June, and 
     
     was continued until September 9th. 
     
     It drew large attendances and was 
     
     much enjoyed by the spectators, be- 
     
     sides which it gave greater oppor- 
     
     tunities for slow plass trotters and 
     
     pacers to secure racing experience 
     
     and win money. The new Saint 
     
     John track was also equipped with 
     
     lights and several qicresslul meet- 
     
     ings held over it. The largest. purse

     Public interest was shown by re-

     such as Charlottetowns Old Home 
     
     Week and at other meets on lslnnd 
     
     tracks as well as elsewhere. A con- 
     
     servatlve estimate is that upwards 
     
     o! 400,000 people paid admission 
     
     and many other thousands listened 
     
     over the radio to the vivid accounts 
     
     o! the broadcasters. 
     
    

    
     Excitement engendered by the 
     
     close finishes led to many argu- 
     
     ments which were settled where 
     
     tracks were equipped with the God- 
     
     frey Photo Finish. The Startin:

     There was a marked drop in (he
