could not know that it was against
the law to hunt deer with dogs.
But though none of those hunters
looking for him were guilty of hav-

each one of them was willing and
eager to take advantage of the fact
that the hounds were on his trail.

would not have been so bad, but
there were many hunters with ter
rible guns looking for him and in
dodging one he was likely at any
time to meet another. This in itself
seemed terribly unfair and unjust.
But now, added to this, was the
greater unfairness of being trailed
by hounds.

knew it. Straight through the
Green Forest, out across the Green
Meadows to the bank of the Big
River Lightfoot ran. For just a Sec

hounds were almost at his heels.
Lightfoot hesitated no longer, but

lungs ached as he painted for breath.
He realized that even though he
should escape the hunters it would
be to meet an even more terrible

those hounds. There would come a
time when he would have to stop.
Then those hounds would catch up
with him and tear him to pieces.

CcOntinued from First Page,

representative of the Long Island
Railroad, who personally conducted
the tour through the fair grounds and
exhibit buildings.
Although it is impossible to cover
the entire fair in one day, due to the
large area which comprises the nu-
merous exhibits, this press tour was
so we'll planned that the newspaper
men were able to obtain a general
conception of the fair and the loca-
ton of the main exhibit buildings,
also the things which each building
represents.
Throughout the entire trip the
members of the press were shown
every courtesy, and the information
obtained will be useful in directing
others who are planning to visit the
fair this summer and early fall. The
press representatives were very ia
vorably impressed with the magni-
tude and objectives of the Worlds
Fair, as exemplified by the large
number of interesting and attractive
exhibits which truly depict what we
may expect to see in the world of
tomorrow.
