Long Skirts for
Hunting Women

New York, June 10 (AP) - Inc
American horsewoman OF fashion is
definitely returning to the side-sad-
call the growth of her preference for
the flowing riding habit of her
grandmother day over modern
boots and breeches the conspicuous
feature of the indoor riding season
just closing. Whether it meant
equestriennes as whole would
eventually forego riding astride en-
tirely they did not all agree.
Miss NJ. l.. Thompson, riding mis-
tress. at. The Riding Club, an exclus-
i've organization off Fifth Avenue.
said the side saddle was coming
back largely through influence of
riding etiquette abroad. The pres
ent revival here. traces largely to the
Long Island hunting set, she said,
many of whose members ride to
hounds in England and on the con-
tinent.
Miss Thompson explained it was
the sporting thing in this country
when a woman suffered an ordinary
fall at hunt for her to take care
of herself SO other riders would not
have to fall behind the pack in COM
ing so her assistance.
I In England, according to Miss
Thompson, men riders felt they had
to stop and pick a woman up. They
relished such delays, however, not at
all. So visiting American woman
always found herself told politely in
advance of her first hunt overseas
that riding astride would not do. 1t
was deemed less secure than riding
side saddle. increased the danger of
her leaving her horses back too
much like a bolt, she was told. and
particularly added to the chance of
her becoming a burden upon the
men. If the visitor ignored the hint,
she became very unpopular.
American women had accordingly
learned to conform, the riding mis-
tress said. Returning home 10
spread the new riding gospel on this
side. they had become the pioneers
to whom the single stirrup owed its
present vogue. Awards such as the
Mrs. John +. Bloodgood prize of $500
at the National Horse Show for put
ting hunters with side saddles over
fences showed further the prevailing
number of such riders today.
Sentiment at Meadowbrook and
the Monmouth County Hounds sup
ported Miss Thompson's view.
Horsemen there insisted the side
saddle was far safer for a woman
than riding astride. Some asserted
that it was next to impossible for a
trained woman rider thus seated to
be thrown from even the rangiest
hunter, unless girth snapped or
the horse itself went down..
The Brooklyn Riding and Driving
Club added similar endorsement
This was qualified with doubt, how
ever, whether some of the more ath-
letic girls might not still hold to the
mans saddle. This was deemed es-
pecially likely as flat, slim boyish
figures" were undeniably chic wear
ing boots and brooches.
The riding masters thought the in
crease of horseback riding among
children was the next most interest
ing development I of the season.
Glasses at tanbarki schools had never
been larger, they said, and ranged
through all ages down to as tender.
years as six and seven. They hailed
this development of love in the
young child for the ever lovable
horse as one of the surest safeguards
of the future of the American Bride
