OUR WAY TO RIDE.
England Laughed mt Orr jockeys
First, Now Initiates Them.


when Tod Sloane first appeared
on the English tracks, people saw a
mite of humanity perchcd In 'scorch-
ing position, with knees clamped to
the horses withcrs,' says Allen San
gree In Ainslee's. Ills stirrups were
SO short that his chin almost brushed
his knees. and lie had neither whip nor
spurs. The English school and the old
American school of Jockeys sat
straight in the saddle with long stir
rups and punished the horse severely.
The effect Of Sloanc's method was lu-
dicrouS. and all England laughed. Now
the Jockeys over there try to initiate
him.
'Thcrc Is sound logic In Sloane's
monkcylike riding. He takes all weight
away from the horses kidneys, so that
the hind or driving part of the ami
NAL Is left free to impart rapid mo-
ton; also by clinging to the shoulders
instead Of bouncing up and down, thus
racking the horse at every leap, he adj

younger American Jockeys here and

In n few years. They are notable among
jockeys, not for having earned so much
money, but for having saved II, be-
cause the jockey Is seldom frugal. His
average pay in n season. counting
SO for winning mounts and SO for
losing ones, reaches n total Of about
$1,000. Against this sum must be
charged fines and valet expenses. This
Is a minimum salary. Nowadays all
good Jockeys receive large retaining
fees from their owners and in addition
win n good deal through betting.
when a jockey retlres from the sad
die without having saved any money,
his future is dismal. AS n reaction
from abnormal training he usually be-
comes very fat and sluggish and, with
no education, seems unable to make n
good living. Cad Ural, made famous
