Editor's Note:  

Earlier this year, a resident of Moose Jaw read an article that appeared in Maclean's magazine published in the May 1, 1951 edition.  

It is titled, Moose Jaw: Playboy of the Prairies, written by George Hillyard Robertson. He enjoyed the read very much and thought it would be great for Moose Jaw readers today to look back on Moose Jaw's vibrant history. 

As the layout and information is exactly as it appears in the original published version in Maclean's, May 1, 1951 edition, we have permission to publish it as so.  

The full article can also be accessed online.
