Consequently the board will set
a date for the luncheon Immediately
following the convention SO that the
convention reports may be given

However there is another purpose
for the luncheon and that is the

The clubs activities, just what
is being done, and the Ten Thou

business. will be presented in live,
interesting short accounts to its
members for their consideration. A
real understanding of the Woman's
Ten Thousand club and its prob
lens is the goal in addition to
really delightful social affair spon-
sored by a group of charming host
esses the clubs officers and di-
rectors.
The first club meeting is October

In the grandstand there was a cram
Ing of necks, a straining Of eyes, and
q hush.
Only the soft clatter of the pony's
hoofs as he now flew down toward the
grandstand struck the ear. A slender
streak of dust rose from where the fin
gers trailed along the track. AS he
neared the vicinity of the cigarette,
the wrangler lifted his fingers just
above the dust and bent his straInlng
eyes ahead. He passed the grandstand
like fash.
Az he did so, his right hand was
flung out, just once, and his fingers
struck ut the dust. He dashed ahead,
Strengthened himself gradually In the
saddle, and, beldlng his right hand
high, checked the pony and rode slowly
back.
The judges clambered down from
thsar stand and ran out on the track.
