Last [all the first ottentpt was made at Ravin.; en :Maud field day and 3o successful 'sere they that it was decieed to put them on again this year only on a lar,;or scale. The gaune3 commenced shortly at - ter ono o'clock and continued until six o'cloc'c 'without any intermission and cash ,,rent 1,11E13 pulled off with- out the 3lightxsit hitolt or friction. \V bile only t wo prizes were given in each championship cont the [lance of thou who came one, two three, ware (recorded, as the first represented three pointa, the second two and the third one in aumntin; up the points for the Championship. A cold %wind was blowin•; from the West which greatly interfered with some of the events and kept the many spectators on the alert to keep up their blood circulation. Notwlth standing the disai;reeablc breeze, much interest was taken at All times, and many of the events had many entries.

Hunt Ion. 1 Ferguson G Butt were the leading contestants Hanlon winning the junior Championship Medal. In the race for the small boys and girls the youngsters acquitted them ;elves very creditably. All of the races were well filled and each and every one ran with the determinat- ion to %win. The three and two utile Marathon races were shortened by half toallow some of the runners to go hone. In the senior Marathon six entered but only two finished while the junior :Marathon trae3 :had a whole host of ontrios nearly all of which went the diatanze. The stay- ing qualities of Earl Southoott the little chap who lead nearly the en- tire distance and who cams in second twerp heartily applauded. The race that aroused considerable interest was that for the lady teach. ere and a trifle delay was caused by all the judges wishing to catch the first throe over the linLalein; line. It was thought for a moment or two that the ,tartars would for- sake their position and join those at the receiving end, but the matter W113 amicably settled by the selection of the 'three best looking (1) men to Irene - undertake the job .III tlic lot of course fell ,lo those tt , are dicta. Many of Abe otter events were in- teresting but space swill not permit • of further mention, except to •31y they were all good.
