zone of the most difficult things to learn
is the sense that teaches Just which horse
is pulling without ever looking at them
or at the reinS. 7 remember when was
teaching one of the Hartman girls I told
her that she must feel the horse, and she
acknowledged then that she did not know
what that sense was. After she had been
driving three years, and driving well, too
she turned suddenly to me and said: I
have Just learned what It means to feel
the horse. I can tell now the moment a
pull comes Just which horse II is 1t had
taken her all that time to develop that
special quality. Lots Of women go on driv-

while holding four reins with horses going

the necessity OF having a light hand. The
horses must be nicely bitted and the driver
must have lots Of patience. A nervous
woman will infect the horses as IL the
reins were live wires down which the cur

Just after Mr.. Shore moved to his farm

and the southern "schoolmarm' began a
correspondence that soon changed from for

into love. Photographs were exchanged,
not the matrimonial kind, but the genuine
articles, and with them went descriptions
