OF all the so-called sport

and a half which these aston
ished eyes have gazed upon or
read about, none has quite in
trigued them so much as the

When this innovation was an
nounced many months ago,
our first reaction was some
what similar to the attitude
of the darker of the two black
crows whose response to most
propositions is, "Well, what of
it, who brought that up?"
But now that the saunter is
really under way and over
two hundred steppers are
actually out there striding
their way across the continent,
one can't hep but scratch ones
scalp and conclude that after
all it is quite an undertaking.
Although it may not prove
n1uch in the way of thrills,
quality which every sports
patron instinctively seeks, its
test of endurance can be un-
questioned and since endurance
is the basis Of so many forms
of athletic .endeavor, the at
fair at least engages ones
fancy.
The idea of a foot race,
go-as-you-please race, race
in which the contestant may
walk or run or hop, skip and
jump if he likes, is no more
curious than the gentleman
who is at the head of it. the
aforementioned Mr.. Pyle. He'
in case you haven't the dope

quite an oddity when ne
