BRINGING UP FATHER PROGRESS ON HUDSON BAY NEW RAILWAY End of Steel at Mile 350 Where) Bridge Being 'Built Over i Limestone River WINNIPEG, June 29 More than eleven hundred workmen, with ten work trtlns end a full complement of equipment are being used this year In the rehabilitation and construction work on the Hudson Bay Railway. It was announceu by officers of the construction department of the Canadian National Rail ay-vhlch has the. work In hand. The end of steel to now at the Limestone River Mile 350. In addition to reconditioning the track which was in existence prior to the present work being started in th spring of 1926, eighteen miles of new track has also been laid. By the-end of the present year it Is expected work will be finished on the Limestone River bridge and the line extended to a point tcme miles beyond this crossing. KIXONDITIOMNC When the work of reconditioning the Hudson Bay Railray was begun In 1926. the line was being operated as far as Mile 214. Track was laid to Mile 332. but before any work on the extension could be made, the part already buUt had to be repaired and brought into condition for the operation of train. Mos; of the ties originally used were rotted and useless and these needed replacement. In many sections the line had settled and this had to be reballaAted. the bulk of the ballast being hauled In by trains. During the season of 1926 as many as 600 men with eight work trains were employed. During the season of 1937 and to date the number of men em ployed has exceeded 1.100 and as many m 10 work trains with a proper com plement of working equipment have been used. Last winter the work of building the substructure over the .Limestone River at Mile 350 was proceeded with and by April 24 of this year the substructure and trestle approaches were completed. A steam shovel will cut Into the pit In the near future to ballast the 18 miles ot tine between Mile 332 (the former end of steel) and Mile 350 td permit delivery of 'steel to. the bridge .site for the erection of the superstructure ot the bridge over the Limestone. ABSENT-MINDED BEGGAR SOLD Disposing of Manuscript Brings to Mind Story of Famous Kipling Verses LONDON, June 29 (Canadian Press The original manuscript of Kipling's I 'Absent-minded Beggar," a song which In the days of the South African War had a rage which was not equalled by that aroused by Tipperary" In the Great War has been sold here at auction tor L340. The manuscript also bears the music, written and signed by Sir Ar thur Sullivan. How the "Absent-minded Beggar" came to be written ii an Interesting story. The Dally Mall, which Incident- aUy offered Kipling 10.000 to act as Its war correspondent In South Africa, an offer which was declined, wanted a song to further Its appeal for funds to assist the families of Reservists and others serving in the South African War. The Mall commissioned Kipling to write the same, at a fee of 250, and also secured Sulllvsn to set It to music tor a fee of one hundred guineas. IMXKlKltKU. LINES According to the late Kennedy Jones, who was Northctiffe's right-hand man tor many years on the Mall, when Kipling produced his verses there was an office consultation as to whether they should be used for the purpose Intended or merely printed as a topi cat war Item. Kennedy Jones compared the utter doggerell of these Ur wth "Recessional," which was Inspired by th Diamond Jubilee ot Queen Victoria, however, the Mall decided to go ahead, but at one found themselves In another difficulty. Sulllvsn had the "Absent Minded Beggar" before him for several dsys, and then fame to the Mil office With the confession that he was completely at a loss for rythin or metre for such vsrse.

Kennedy Jones, especially amongst .be men who worked for him, would be the last to be suspected ot any genius Tor harmonic fluency, looked at. the words again for a few moments.' "Why." he said, "they run on the lines of the air of Tommy Atkins'" (another well-known soldier soug of the period). Jane hummed the tune to Sullivan. "Eureka," gasper Sullivan. Within a couple of days he was back with the music coins, pleted. ' , i r.H HANDSOMELY The song brought In over a quarter 0t a million, sterling lor the benefit of soldiers1 dependants, but the biggest admirers of Kipling or of Sullivan would probably confess this Joint effort, from the artistic point, was about the worst, to which either of them ever subscribed their signatures. For many years . the "Absent-minded Beggar" was not Included Jn collected editions of Kipling's poetical works.

So it is in these modern times and so will '.t be during the ages to come. Ath-fetlc endeavor ever goes on changing only with the changing times fresa the daik ages when human life was the stake, through its largely cosnmercial aspects now. to probably finer stages in the future. New games are devised, new types of sport developed, but they always have been and always will be elementarily, based on the physical skill of the players nnd the enthusiastic approbation of the spectators. As man's day is divided Into one third for, workf qne third for sleep and one third for . recreation, whatever that recreation may be. and. as the more physically active of these recreatlens, what are known as athletics, are s great factor In the development of a virile and robust nation, they form a matter ot mportance, perhaps more importance than many people are willing to attach to them. In the life of the country.. Canada h, always been an athletic aUon. Ionic) of its sports. So a is today and so It must always needs be it Its people are to prosper. It Is a country that has developed great men in the way .of athletic prowess as well as in- intellectual attainments and Inventive I achievements. Despite the country's brief age. Canada's sports and athletes have made a great name for themselves. Canada was. Indeed the mother country, of two of the greatest forms of spcrt namely lacrosse and hockey, as fine and skill requiring as any type of athletics extant. Then too she has produced great players not only In her own national games but In such adopted sports as football, baseball, tennis and golf to say nothing of swimming, track and field work, etc. It Is pleasing to note that Canadians have been keener for the amateur than the professional sports. The rage to see highly paid athletes display their skill has not yet supplanted the enthusiasm fcr the men and teams who play only for the love of the game.
