Doer Is Don

DOYEN of Ota.go sportsmen is Don Stuart, principal , of the firm, of Donald Stuart, Limited, merchants, of .Dunedin. When it comes to merchandise, Don. quickly lets you see that he is the head man m his show, but it is as a bright twinkler m the Rugby constellation that he is best known m the frigid south. In sport as m business, Don. adheres to the golden , principle that a laborer is worthy of his hire and those who play the good old game are Don's principal interest as he presides over the koreros of the Otago Rugby Union. •For was he not one of the forwards Of his day, -when I players received little benefits from the game m the way of insurances, privileges and .representative tours ?

But Don has never forgiven the doctor who classed him C 2 with heai't .a failure when he was selected as a member of Dave Gallaher's 1905 team. • Don is serving his third team at the helm Of: the Rugby ship m Otago and the straightforward honesty of purpose and keen sense of fairness is helping- m no small way to stabilise the business of the Otago Rugby nion.
