and his little boy, Robert, taxing part in
the piping contest. A little girl, III alne

in 7:243l; J. B. Harris. the second. in
7:15h. and R. G. Heriot, the third. in Z :01.
Mr.. Heriot was an easy winner IN the de-
Gliding heat, though Reynolds was In the
lead up to the fifteenth lap, but in that lap

right by Reynolds and going away ahead.
His time was :03 with the others over one
lap behind him. He won the bicycle race
