DAILY EDITION Tuesday, Jan. 25, 1927 RECOGNITION MAY BE OVERDONE. George Young is a fine specimen of Canadian boyhood, clean of mind and sturdy of body, and all Canadians were proud of him when he won that race from Catalina Island to the California coast We are not sure that winninga rich prize and a certain amount of fjeeting'fame Will be altogether to the permanent" advantage of George. Legislatures of both the United States and Canada, Governors of States and Provinces and Mayors of cities have sent him messages of . congratulations. , Hundreds of private citizens havc showered blessings upon his. illustrious head. The Mayor of Toronto wants the citizens to buy a home and permanently establish him and his doting mother in it. A prominent citizen of Toronto has started an endowment fund and inscribed his name at the head of a list of donors "with a. subscription of five thousand dollars. George Young is a good boy. If he had not been a good boy he would not ha've been a famous boy .today. There doubtless are many boys in Toronto just as good as George, and those boys of Exemplary character are probably having just as hard a time making their way in the world as George had. Thanks to his fine character and magnificent physique, combined with some luck, George Young's future in life Is amply secured if he- has the good sense to maintain his moral balance and take care of himself for there is a danger that all the foolish adulation being showered upon him may. "go to his head" and turn his feet from the paths of strict righteousness. But George comes of stock whose heads were hard and feet firmly planted on solid moral ground. He is said to have been born. in a place called Aberdeen, a city which is built of granite. Therefore if George inherits the qualities of his ancestors he should continue to walk in the straight' and narrow path and take good care of all the dollars that come his way for it appear that he is going to sacrifice his dignity as a man and exhibit himself in theatres and pose in the pictures and be well paid for doing so he will soon be a rich man. Neither the Mayor of Toronto nor the millionaire of Toronto need bother their heads about his future. Therefore if the hearts of Toronto's wealthy men have been inflamed into emotional spasms, by tales that are told about the tribulations of George Young and, his devoted mother, let them take all the money they can spare ajid collect .all the money they can and use it fprthe benefit of other boys in Toronto who are haying a hard time and are fighting manfully .the battle of life. ,Therer a r always plenty of boys doing that in every part of the world.- ' A PROUl) DAY FOR. SCOTLAND. Marked the world over wherever Scotsmen are to be found is this day, January 25, the birthday of Caledonia's great bard, Robert Burns, who was born in 1759 and died at the age of SVi years in 1796. Probably the greatest interpreter of the life, of his time, Burns knew his country well. He knew the seamy side of life as well as the bright, the vulgar as well as the elite. If some of his works may approach a point bordering upon the realms of obscenity, the great bulk of them were simply innocent and expressionately natural. The good of the man far overshadowed the bad and even at his worst it may be said that he was at least honest. It is 131 years since Burns, at the height of his career, was cut off in early life. He lived long enough, howeverf to become one of the greatest poets- in history. Scoffed at and ridiculed in life, time intervening has served to justify the man and his works. Now and for a long time hence, his name will be proudly revered and remembered by his kinsfolk. And so his fierce and tender strain, Lives, and his idlest words remain To flout oblivion, that in vain Strives to destroy finp HffhfpRt rprord nf his nnin Or of his joy. Fair Association Adjourns for Week; Then It Will Be Decided j Whether or Not It Carries On j Unless a substantially increased measure of public nupport is( at once forthcoming, it is probable that the Prince Rupert Exhibition ; will be abandoned for the cominjt year at least. Such was practi-j cally the decision of the Northern British Columbia Agricultural & Industrial Association at its annual meeting last night One group j in the meeting expressed the feeling that, if the present, general I apathy with regard to Exhibition affairs was to continue;!,, would inst as well to call the nroiect off while another group was of the opinion that, to get the Exhibition out of its present financial difj ticuity, thr only Umg to do waa to tarry on.

The meeting received reports on 1928 operations but deferred the Election of a new board for the coming year. President W. D. Vance was in the chair and eighteen members of the Association. Including the president, were in Supporting the suggestion that the money should be borrowed from the city or at least from pne source as Mr. Vance stated that the present bftn'rd' lbad proposition to put befor the 927 board with a view to raising money. Mr. Munro Inquired as to what security the board had If It went out to raise money In the usual way. "Only the building and fixtures," replied Mr. Vance, the manager remarking that the building wa valued at the Dominion government as an armory and the Exhibition Association establish Itself downtown. It Involved; extra expense to have the building In. Its present location and there was little; chance to derive revenue from it.

With reference to the deficit, Mr. proceedings. "Possibly. If It were Vance's report stated that It had been decided not to have one. It would make essentially due to lack of support that (people sit up and take notice am) ei-bad been accorded the fair. He garti press themselves a to whether they figures to show that donations during 1926 had been 535.7J less than In 1925; city grant, 4S0 less; advertising in prize book, 1233.90 less; and concessions and booths, $345.85 less, these netted but $309. Taking all these figures Into consideration, the deficit was more than accounted for. The carnival queen project had been abandoned In 1926 on the ground that It had been overdone In past years but, the report stated, as a money raising means It might In another year again be gtvtl. serious consideration. There might be a cutting down on outdoor sports, the report suggested. They had cost $841.75 last year whereas the gate was $828.50. MKHIT tmi'T K.WIM1S Pointing ,to saving that might be effected In connection with future fairs, Mr. Vance stated that there had been a good deal of permanent Improvements made during the past year which would not be necessary again, thus saving that expense to future operations. Two Indian bands had been engaged In 1926 but the number of Indian visitors had been disappointing. The Boys' Band, he thought, would rui the bill in this connection during the coming year. The Fraser Valley exhibit had come In for considerable criticism but Mr. Vance pointed out that It had been brought here for educational purposes with a view to riaslng the standard of local district exhibits. Principally on account of the general election and early frosts, the tributary district had not responded. Mr. Vance suggested that district exhibits here might be subsidized as was done In New West-nlnster. Supplementing Mr. aVnceS report, David Thomson, fair manager, told of having seen lion. Z. D. Barrow, minister of agriculture, and W. J. Bonavla, secretary of the department, who were favor of giving -the Prince Rupert Exhibition an additional grant on the strength of the Westminster exhibit having been brought here. Commenting on the report of the president, George Munro remarked ' that nothing had been sail In the report as to ways and means for meeting the outstanding accounts. Mr. Vance, In reply, stated that the Fair Board had called on the civic finance committee with reference to the matter but had been advised by the committee to first hold Its annual meeting and select the 1927 board before proceeding with negotiation. To cover the outstanding accounts, Mr. Vance suggested that the Board borrow the money from the city and itatrl good for It. Such Mr. Vance thought was the prpper course to follow and he. had no doubt that the city would support the Board. He referred to the fact that the city of Kamloopa had carried the deficit of the Exhibition for three years. really wanted one or not." Mr. Morgan explained how directorship of the Fair had been foistsd upon him against his will last year and declared that he had absolutely decided figures giving a total . decrease In 'to quit. A city should be ashamed of revenue of 11.374.50. Paid admissions that gave such little support to during the 1926 fair were $87.65 in ex-i.t, p,ir M Prince Rupert did. In every cess of 1925 but this was not a fair j other town or city, there was enthus-comparlson as the 1923 scholarship hum about the Fair but here there was contest had netted $H85 whereas thenot a solitary business man on Third drawing for the automobile in 1926 had . Avenue who had made sn effort to support the Fair. 'My store." declared Mr. Morgan "was the only one that was even decorated." Results could not be obtained that way. The people that derived the most benefit from the Fair turned the directors down cold when assistance was sought. He did not believe In giving his own time and neglecting his buslnesa when everybody else maintained a strictly mer-ceaary attitude toward the Exhibition. It was Impossible to have a successful fair without the support of all. This town was still a small plan and a fair should be staged accordingly on a small basis. I Referring to the lack of enthusiasm' and support In connection with the Fair here. Mr; Vance compared Prince ' Rupert with 'Ketchikan where every-' body entered into the spirit of any, celebration that might be" held. People, here did not take enough Interest In I their own town to make it attractive.' There was some reason a lack of public spirit. I ."We are In a hole." continued Mr. Vance "and the only way I can see of getting out of It Is to carry on. But we must have the support of aU the citizens, more particularly businesses that derive direct benefit such a the taxis and hotels." John Bulger mentioned a rumor that was current that $1700 had been spent by the Fair Board this year on taxis. This Item waa turned up and It was shown that only $82.50 had been expended for this purpose. VAS'T l'IT NOW Mr. Vanc aald, if the Fair wa dropped 'qo v. trie Association could not cleanup ita-accounts, ' There would be no civic or government grant. If the, Fair was; continued, the prize list would have to be revised, asserted IN PROBATE.
