They have done this in spited : difficulties. They have had yerv little encouragement from the Department of National Defense f, 0tt?wa which, so far, has been devoting its energies to defending Vancouver and Victoria. happily there seems to be a change coming over the situation. A little attention is being given to Prince Rupert and, when there is any little instrument or weapon not needed elsewhere, they take the trouble to shin it north A gun shed has been completed on the water-tront to house a gun when it arrives. We have not been told what happened the guns that formerly were said to have been coming for that purpose. The department is also planning to clear the land this year for two or three gun positions at advantageous positions and tenders have been called for the clearing of the land.

TURNING ROOK AND PAGE Turning back a page in history it is well to remember that it was the efforts of the local 102nd Regiment, prior to its conversion to artillery, that brought about the purchase from their own funds of the present armories. Ottawa refused even to give a grant until shamed into doing so by the members of the regiment. The officers and men worked night .after night, Sunday after Sunday, nailing boards and doing the work themselves which made the present headquarters fit for use. Today the 'armory is a splendid monument to the energy and persistence of the local militia and not to the Canadian governments, no matter of what political stripe. All were equally negligent. Under these circumstances it is really wonderful what has been achieved here. The showing made Monday night was excellent in view of the circumstances. The unit is being steadily built up and officers and men seem to work together with splendid co-operative spirit MINISTER OF DEFENSE We .are looking for great things from the present Minister .of National Defense, Hon; Ian Mackenzie. He has at any rate recognized jthe stragetic importance of I nnce Rupert and, if his plans are carried out, we shall eventually be in a position to keep a possible enemy from' rjuding o,ur cjty, destroying the dry dock and seizing the r&lway, We hope jthat among other things the minister Will seehcdesirabjlity .of building a highway from Prince Rupert ttficonnect at Terrace with the provincial highway. We realize that there is oppsition to many of his plans but we thin he has done wonders on this coast so far. I ' SPORT CHAT Man O'War comes of age March O'War is .still the alive. Man O'War was foaled March 29, 1917. Technically, of wwars personal yaiet. He has a chest like a potato barrel and a drawl you could slice with a butter knife. On Samuel D. Riddle's Faraway farm near Lexington, Ken-, tucky, the big negro personally looks after the grooming of his charge. He likes to recite the rec ord of the horse that lost only once In 21 starts as a two and three- year-old and since has sired well past 250 thoroughbreds. Sitting there in the tackroom be side a purring stove. Will looks up from his polishing. It's Man O' War's saddle he's "dusting up a bit." Each stroke is a caress. "I don't want to .be famous nohow. Man O War's famous that enough." Across the concrete drive, in a spotless white barn bordered in green, Man O'War munches his .hay. Big Will leads the way. "Gentlemen," he says, "you is looking at the greatest hoss of all time. His .teeth is perfect, his wind is perfect, his digestion is perfect and, gentlemen look at them legs. Ever see legs like that on a hoss Man O'War's ase?" . Wan O'War entered the stud 1921 and is still in demand. His foals, through last year, averaged race earnings of $9,366. They won $16 races, placed in 732 and showed In 645. The average per foal stands at the top among averages of 27 leading sires listed in available rec- ords. "Big Red" has sired two Kentucky Derby winne'rs War Admiral (1937) and .Clyde Van Dusen 1929). Man O' War himself, so' honored in the Bluegrass a Lex ington American Legion Post was named after him, never won the Kentucky Derby; did not, in fact, ever race in Kentucky. Man O' War suffered his only defeat when, as a two-year-old, he ran second in the Sanford Memorial at Saratoga. Man O' War earned $249,465 in his two years on the track but Big Will says if purses had been the same In "Big Red's" day as now he would have won $600,000. "Big Red" does about seven miles of road work daily this time of year. A little jaunting, a little walking, a little galloping. His day starts at four a.m. His thick mat tress of straw is changed first. thing. then he breakfasts on oats, timothy and clover. Big Will grooms him at 6:30. As soon as he comes back from his workout, Big Wll grooms him again. At 11 he gets his ,oats and hay and some bran. From a little after 12 until three o'clock Man O' War prances in the paddock then Big Will leads him back in for you guessed it! a third grooming. It' time then for oats and hay again. Six o'clock is "Rights out" time. A night man watches the famous sire's every mpye until ho Is relieved at four a.m. , vvi:ni)i: for bkek TILFORD, Eng., March 23: (CP) lilford Cricket Club's appeal for helo In weeding the ground rnet with, prompt response.
