With 1949 horse show plans al.
ready perking. the initiated as well
as many exhibitors and enthusiasts
ask the question as to why" OF
horse shows.
The why is because a horse
show is one of the most intensely
exciting of the better known sports.
The appeal of the animals them
selves, the skill required by their
breeders, trainers and riders and the
opportunity to gamble with this skill
have since antiquity contributed to
the popularity Of horse events. The
early coloniSts far removed from
civilization by q stormy ocean had
little time for sports. But before
the laoorious years had rounded out
the 18th century and as soon as
there were horses and some leisure
in America, the shouts of spectators
following various equine sports broke
the stiffness of many American
plains.
The exact origin of the horse show
In America is not recorded. The
Upperville CVaD Colt and Horse
Show first held in 1853 generally is
accepted as the oldest formal show
In the United States. The. show
still is held, annually at Grafton
Farm, the historic spot where it
was first offered. In its inception
the horse show was a means to an
end for the development of standard
types Of horses for use as saddlers,
hunters, coach and carriage horses.
Shows Spur Breeders.
Today the shows are still a ire
nendous spur to the breeder. Know
ing that horses that show we'll will
bring better prices, the breeder is
consistently trying to improve the
conformation and performance of
his stock. Through years of COM
petition at shows the various types
of horses have increased in numbers.
flneness and stamina.
The showing of horses no LONGER
Is pastime of the wealthy, but is
a means of livelihood for thousands.
The big stables currently showing
can be, fguratively counted on one S
fingers, while the number of small
ones who breed and show their own
horses is constantly increasing.
The horse show season begins
early in spring and gains momentum
through the summer and autumn
months until climaxed in November
by the National Horse Show held in
New York's Madison Square Garden.
The horse was king when the
first national show was held in old

Psychology helps you win," says
Herman "and it also helps a lot

AMEND THE TAX / L

Z. IL he IA DILL -
OLD COUNCIL Bill No. IA, passed in 1887, should be
amended to conform to actual conditions existing today. This
is a contention which has been made time and again, and it
is about time that the Council give a little attention to it
since it concerns each and every taxpayer in the municipality.
SECTION a. which treats of the Elements and incidents"
names location, quality or fertility, condition Of structures,
and abooe ALL recent sale price of adjacent property, and re-
cent offer. While, on the surface, this seems logical enough, yet
it offers too great a leeway, & entirely too much discretion in
one given direction. And this has been the sore spot about
which taxpayers have complained long and loud.
# IS TRUE that some standard must be used, but care
has to be exercised in its use, and then they become arbitrary
then it is time for the legislature to study and make neces-
sary changes, Here is the situation. According to Section "a,
the recent sale price of adj acent property is a factor in assess
ing, or reassessing the value of property. If, for example, and
this has been the case time and time again, a continental pu-
chases some spot which he considers choice and pays out of
all proportion to its real value, then the value of the adjacent
property suddenly shoots up. An owner may have a bit Of
property worth s., 1000. Along comes someone and buys it for
$4,000, sentiment and other non-determinable factors being
responsible. At that moment the adjoining bit of property sud
denly finds itself increased 400 per cent. This would be all
right if the second owner were thinking of selling, but if he
is not, and intends to keep his property then he is faced
Nth taxes 400 percent higher than he paid the year before,
yet no Improvements, and no increase in income. In point
ing this out it is kept in mind that some method has to be
used to evaluate property, but this is entirely too arbitrary,
and subject to whims and other uncomfortable factors.
THEN THERE IS the matter of a reviewing board or
committee. According to the present bill, the Administrator
is a member of such a board. This should be changed immedi-
ately, for that places the chief administrative officer in a
position where he can control all hands. 1t must be remem-
bered that the Tax Assessor is directly responsible to the Ad-
minisrator, SO that in the event there is any difference in
point of view, the tax payer finds himself facing the same

A. No; this is a closing that was
used many years ago, but it is OBJ
solete now.
@. Should a man hold the arm
of a woman companion while walk
ing along the street?
A. No; and neither should she
cling to his arm. However, a man
should assist an elderly woman by
taking her arm, unless she appears
to resent such attention, and he
may guide any woman companion
in crossing streets or assist her in
ascending or descending steps, by
laying his hand lightly on her
arm.
@. When passing your plate for
a second helping of some dish,
what should be done with the
silver?
A. Always leave the silver on
the plate.
@. Is it all right for a divorce
to have a maid-of-honor and two
bridesmaids at her second marri-
age?
A. No; she should have mao
more than one attendant at her
second marriage.

It is to avoid just such a stu
alton that the American sys-
