round that ring. each driver thinking, doubtless
that all eyes were riveted on him, all CHEERS
were for him. or, If there were kisses, they were
for him. There the driver who never lifted
his eyes from his horse. and the driver Who' al
ter the fashion Of boy who has Just learned to
ride bicycle without his hands, looked away
from his horse at the most critical moments.
Then came the unpleasant task on the part OF
the judges of clearing out all contestants but
the winners. Many a driver who had been
cheered to the echo each time he let his steed
have open course to try his speed. had to
turn tail and drive out of the gate in defeat,
which went to show that the judges went by
different rules than did the crowd.
But there were many at the show who ap-
peared to get infinitely more pleasure walking
around that board walk than In watching the
horses. To a lover Of fine fabrics. the sight Of
many delicate gown dragged along those dirty
