"A greyhound is probably the fastest creature that moves upon the earth" !" says a breeder of dogs. ''It is on rec ord that greyhound beat the famous race horse Flying Childers. An abso- lute trial between horse and greyhound is difficult, because, while the horse can be ridden at top speed, it is i'm possible to insure that the greyhound will run all he can. But dog that can start fifty yards behind hare and overtake it within another fifty-and this is about what the greyhound does must surely be faster than anything else that runs and has his superior only among the birds. s."-Detroit Free Press
