takes great pride in the fact that Sin
gle G has beaten every horse that
ever defeated him. In fact, Single G
has beaten every horse that has YER
diets over him, more times than thu
horse has defeated him, with one ex-
ception. Napoleon Direct won more
times from Single G than Single G
won from Napoleon Direct. But
Napoleon was retired from racing be-
fore Single G came on to be his best. ="

Becomes Famous.
After attracting some attention as
a three-year old in 1913, and setting
a record for four-year-olds in 1914,
Single G became nationally famous
through winning the great Chamber OF
Commerce Stake at Detroit, on the
Grand Circuit, in 1915. That was hi;
first really great performance. HIS
last was in Atlanta last fall, when rae
ing against a fast PAGER named San
ardo, he paced three heats in 1853,
and 2:00&, the fastest three consec-
utive heats ever won by a pacing
mare, he holds the record for the
fastest three heats ever paced in a
race. At Toledo, in 1918, he lost the
first heat to Miss Harris M. in 1:58h
and then came on to win the second
and third in 1:591a and 1899 A
summary of his racing career reveals
some interesting facts:

Horsemen say that the remarkable
thing about Single G is not so mucn
his speed which other horses have
equalled, but the fact that he comes
back year after year for more hard
races. With the exception of the two
diseases that bothered him as a colt
Single G has always been sound Even
his legs, which show the strain OF
racing before any other part of a
horses body, have continued sound.
Fast in Races.
"All his fast miles have been in
races, for we have never babied him
along with the exhibition miles," said
Mr.. Barefoot. He has made his re-
cords in the company of other horses
in races in which he had to pace thru
fields of all sizes to get to the front
Working in and out, and around other
horses, behaving well, and still show
ing speed is the test of a race horse
Single G has been doing his job like
a workman ever since he first went
to the races
Mr.. Barefoot's love for the great
horse is manifested in many ways.
After Single G. won the two big Cham
Der of Commerce stake at Detroit in
1915, wealthy horseman offered SIS.
600 for the horse. Barefoot refused
and when asked to set a price .on Sin
gle G decided he did not care to sell
at all. He goes over to Indianapolis
every now and then, fall, winter and
spring to see the horse, and in sum-
mer makes pilgramages all over the
| United States to watch him race.
Single G is known to horse lovers
in IA states, including Connecticut,
New York, Pennsylvania, Georgia,
Ohio, West Virginia, Kentucky. Indi-
ana, Illinois, Michigan, Wisconsin,
Iowa. Nebraska, and Minnesota, in all
of which he has won races. The poul-
try business in eastern Indiana has to
worry along without Mr.. Barefoot
when Single G is at the track TO face
starter. He has jouTntyed thousands
of miles to watch the son of his old
, mare, Little Gyp, match speed with
other fast horses.
Little Gyp is Dead.
Little Gyp, by the way, died not
