sidered two, hard-surfaced. public
streets.
City Solicitor Richard Wehler
contends Mr.. Brown has some rea-
son to believe he owns the streets.
but he questions whether his action
is legal.
The streets involved are Ken
lucky ave. and Georgia ave. on the
South Side.
In the past, for at least 38 years,
the city has been paving the streets
and they have been open to public
use, according to Browns neigh
Dor, James A. Burks of 551 Georgia
ave, who finds he can no longer
get into his coal shed because of
the new situation.
The Ohio Fuel Gas Co, Burks
added, has lines serving his resi-
dence running under the streets.
Recently Brown fenced off the
two streets claiming he holds
deed to the property on which por-
tons of both streets are located.
City Solicitor Wehler, comment
ing on the matter Tuesday, said
"Mr Brown is justified except for
dedication (of the two streets) by
public use"
He pointed out that even if the
two streets have not been official
ly dedicated, they are to be con-
sidered as such if they have been
open to the public for a certain
length of time. He believes this
time has long since elapsed.
But Brown still has his fences
up, and Burks can't get into his
coal shed.

LIFE IN
THE COUN TRY
Artist Has a Little Fun, Too
BY JAMES BIRcHFIELD

It should be good news to
horse lovers that there are doZ-
ems of people in these parts who
still remember which side of a
horse you mount from.
=, And I should add that Newman
ISudduth. the artist who illus
ktrates these little essays, also
KNOWS and is having q quiet
tlaugh up his sleeve.
Newman's illustration two
Sundays ago, showing how Tom
Taylor used a snap-on stirrup
to help him onto his 17-hand-
high horse brought on an
avalanche of letters and tele-
phone calls.
We have been accused of
being nothing more than Eastern
dudes. of. not knowing one side
of a horse from the other, and
Of being in danger of getting
what few brains we have kicked
out.
Not at all. We always ap-
proach horse on the right
side, which. I hasten to add, is
the horses left, or near side.
And We always leave mounting
on the of side to the Indians,
who. I understand. have always
made a practice of getting on
from that side Of their ponies.
One of our readers wanted to
know if Tom Taylor is an East
ern dude" and we have referred
this question to others. We have
been told that he sure is an
fastener, but the dude part is
a matter of opinion. He does
wear some mighty fancy vests at
times. He certainly. however,
knows about horses and which
side to mount from. and we have
done him a diSservice by even
indicating that he might mount
his horse in any other than the
proper fashion.
One of our readers who used
the telephone to question the
knowledge Of horsemanship of
this column, asked The Star
operator to let her speak to the
typewriter cowboy"
Surely" she said, she had
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1957-05-12

better stick to riding his type
writer instead of fooling about
with live horses If he doesn't
know any more about getting
on one than that picture would
indicate"
Well, Newman has had his
little joke. He wondered how
many, if any, readers would
notice that his rider was getting
on from the wrong side. And
he knows now that almost every
body knows which side Of q horse
is used for mounting.
And while we are on the
subject Of getting on and of
of horses, there win be a lot Of
it come next Saturday at Rasp-
berry Plains. near Leesburg.
The Loudoun Hunts annual
horse show is being held there
that day, and one Of the big
attractions will be the appear
ance Of Arthur Godfrey and his
Arabian horse, Catoctin Gold.
Mr.. Godfrey's horse seems to
know about all Of the tricks in
the book. and his performances
usually are smooth and spec
tacular. And, Of course, there
also win be the breeding classes
and the open jumpers. 1t will
be a good horse show, in a
pretty setting.
