the country. Mrs Douglas Primes

old won the preliminary and took
the tri-color for which the best
youngsters at the show have been
battling throughout the week. The
record that this spectacular chest
nut gelding has made is nothing less
than phenomenal. He has taken
five blue ribbons, a second and a
third in the six classes in which he
has shown.
Exhibiting against horses years
older than himself, Pappy has
shown the way to the more eX-
perienced young hunters and de-
monstrated his marked superiority.
A great deal of credit for the Spen-
did showing of the son of Red Bug
Mildred c., is due to the splendid
rides given him by Alex Calvert, one
of the ace horsemen of the Old
Dominion. Pappy had % points In
the final reckoning, all that 1t was
possible to garner for the cham
pionship. The reserve went to
