this year, as in past years. these Al
bermarle county horses are entries

records of past hurse shows here, IN
New York and London, show that in
the hunter classes Mr.. Morris has
always annexed more than the average
number OF blue ribbons.
Mr.. Morris. who has long been master
OF foxhounds OF the Keswick Hunt Club,
of which John Armstrong Chaloner Is
an enthusiastic member, will find plenty
of Virginians. scire MarJlanders. a
good sprinkling Of Pennsylvanians. ard
a large number Of District horse owners

fitting at Rings.

Instead of fitting at ring. riders ir
"gymkana" in the Fort Myer Horse
Show. which begins at 10 o'clock tomor-
row, will joust at potatoes. Lance un-
der arm. brave knights. wearing not
greaves and hauberks but puttees and
riding breeches. will charge at the po-
tatoes placed in rows for each con-
testant. This little tourney will be
further differentiated from jousting at
ancient Camelot by the fact that fair
ladies will tilt at the rings.
In King Arthur's day, fair ladies
never rode except a-pillion. The tourna-
ment-yard lance was not handled by
them except when they handed 1t to
their defending knights after the brave
knight had been derricked up on the
back Of his broad built charger.
The Misses Jeanette and Dasha Allen.
Miss Helen Buchanan. Anne Greble,
and Ruth Allen have entered in this
gymkana," a far Eastern term used
to describe fitting at ring. A number
OF officers will compete with the young

les to be the stellar spectacular feature
or the Fort Myer Horse Show.

elimination judging will occupy the day.
Ihe elimination classes will be full of
interest. 1t Is promised. and all the

Real Frontier Life
Shown in "101 Ranch"

fer many years has depended on their
skill in batting traps; stage drivers who

that they gathered themselves, all will
be here. and the heart of the small boy
will beat at least twice as fast as
ordinarily.
The .'l0l Ranch" illustrates the life of
the plains. which is now a thing of the
past. with every detail true to life. The
Indians. who are now peaceful, were
selected from the Sioux, Cheyenne,
Arapahoe, and Apache tribes. which

days of the settlement of the West

easy free broncho-busting cowboy will
be troop Of cossacks under the leader
ship of Prince Lucca. The cossack is
the opposite of the cowboy in riding
and the cossack and cowboy represent
the two greatest riding types in the
world
Another feature of the show is the
great battle between the Indians and
settlers. In this fight everything is real
except the blood. In the Indians are
the same who have made many raids,
and the settlers are those OF the from
tier who have had to fight their way

overland caravan will begin the fight
and the methods of defense which en-
abled the settlers to live through these |
attacks will be demonstrated.
