The development of the sporting spirit that acompanies the pursuit of athletic pastimes s also a high- ly desirable achievement. . All success is built on good health, backed by a spirit of tolerance and fair play. The community or nation that neglects to cultiv- ate these qualities may be a rich, but can never be a great one. Let Dryden and district put its heart into this thing and we ma; discover awrunner that will bring distinction to our district, bus better still, we shall have the cer- tainty of every benefit that car accrue from the intelligent cul tivation of manly sport. a Already several entries have been received. The first to volun- teer-was Mr Dave Currie, who is keenly interested in making the undertake the training of thosc who would like to enter. To facilitate training arrangements it is advisable that competitors submit their names as soon ac possible to him or to Mr Pitt, or any member of the Association committee. Remember that the time is short and that the best trained man stands the best chance. So get a move on. Have your name entered at once; and] get the advantage of trainin with an experienced athlete, and whether you win the race or not: you will never regret the exper- ience and health gained by a course of training. Sr Mr John Rhodes has finally dis- posed of his business, and contem- plates a period of well-earned rest His health is not of the best at present, which fact may oblige him to seek treatment, and he may possibly make a trip to Roch- ester.

Every man who could possibly attend was present, and the kind of evening a good send-off,, that men thoroughly enjoy was spent. Card tables, checker boards, ; lunch, music (vocal and instrum- ental), wrestling & boxing bouts, & specially printed programme were all provided, the entire ex- pense being borne by the manage- ment.

Not "speeches" with the; restrained calculated phraseology that gets one nothing, but men's talks, straight from the shkioulder, that clear the atmosphere. The general manager, Mr J. B. Beveridge, made a hit wth his effort. In a spirit of friendly ban- ter, he explained the attitude of the management towards the em- ployees, and pointed out impedi- ments in the way of mutual un- derstanding and goodwill. He didn't hesitate either to utter some home truths that were thor- oughly relished for their frank- ness, for there is nothing the everage man enjoys more than to be told where he gets off at. The President of the local Un- ion also spoke briefly, and one or two more helped to brighten things up by their remarks and stories. That the discussion rose to a high plane on occasion was proved by the interest taken in a scientific exposition of 'Evolution' by Mr H. Humphreys. It is clear that a movement which was originally planned to In a letter received }yy Mrs i Humphreys from her 'daughter Mrs Tinsley of Swift Current, is . given the sad news of the death of our old-time editor, Joe Osborne. He has never quite recovered his strength since ill health and ad- vancing years compelled him to withdraw from the management of this paper. He has always kept in touch with us, however, and was a constant reader of the QOb- server. The recent death of Wm. Humphreys was somewhat of a Blair's decease, it seemed as if he let go, and he has been failing since. The funeral at Swift Current took place on Tuesday, 6th of Ap- ril. He was 69 years of age. om---- ABOUT YOUR INCOME TAX 919 April 12th, unmarried persons who receive an income less than $1,000, and married persons re- ceiving an income of less than $2,000, are not bound to make a return unless htey receive a writ- ten request from this department.
