The ladies of the hunt are

BILE in the field.
Cavalry Charge
When the Black and Tan are
cast into a covert, a rough and
tumble character named Pat
Hogan holds the field in check
until they're away. Then there
is a caYalry charge for the first
fence. At the start of one run
on our first day with Scarteen,
several British and Irish gen.
tlemen found they had taken a
wrong turn into a wired field.
They charged the barbed wire
and all survived except one,
who rolled over a few times
and remounted.
1t is not easy to over-rate
the banks of the Garryspillane
country. If James o. Pease and
I were lucky enough to find
horses to shepherd us through
to the end of two good runs,
some of our American friends
bought real estate more than
once. So did the Irish. We saw
at least eight in bitches, or
rolling head over heels on the
drop side, within two hours.
Everyone was up and on horse
again in time. Of a field of
fifty, about forty-nine still were
on hand when the M. F. H.
called it a day.

There are three stages to
jumping a bank and ditch in
the country of the Scarteen
hounds near Garryspillane.
First, the rider leans forward
in the saddle and lowers his
head. for a short prayer. The
posiStion Of the head also makes
it easier to butt through the
bracken and thorn at the top
OF the bank and to avoid seeing
other horses or riders falling
over backward in the ditch
nearby.
Secondly, if horse and rider
reach the top of the bank and
look down-a mere drop of 4
to Z feet-the rider means,
"Oh MOI" The horse gathers
himself, plunges off and hits
running. After a few tries at
this, even a man slow at figures
will find he can check the
premium dates on his insurance
policies between take-off and
landing. If he is lucky, he may
never have to collect.
The third stage is coming
hime to lie about what you've
done.
In Family 200 Years
The Scarteen, also known as
the Black and Tans, have been
in the Ryan family for more
than 200 years. Thady Ryan,
the present master, is young
and vigorous, runs the show
with the snap and vigor one
sees in a top American pack
the Piedmont Fox Hounds or
Middleburg in Virginia, for ex-
ample. or the Potomac, the
Elkridge, Hartford and Green
Spring Valley in Maryland.
His hounds also have the drive
and cry found with those packs.
There is perhaps no other
fox-hunting field in the world
quite comparable to the Scar
teen in appearance. Gentlemen
wear silk toppers which are
ripped, bent of brim, battered
on top from falls. AS Ryan says
of a part Of his country, "One

By Fred AvendOrph

known facts to belt the Average
traveller or Dacationer get the
most out Of bis trip.
Arizona tribune., 1961-03-01
>A DOYOUGETTH
MOST OUT OFTRAVELING?

This is absolutely erroneous. Although certain
travel agents have been known to charge client
directly, the agents fees are paid by transport
lines, hotels, sightseeing Companies and
rental agencies.
Most, though all, hotels pay the agent
1O% commission for all types of reservations,
however, when time does not permit the agent to
hotel by mail local telephone call,
the agent is compelled to levy a service charge
to cover the costs incurred for telegrams or long
distance toll charges. Charges for these and
other types of services will vary somewhat among
agents, just as they do among doctors, attorneys
accountants.
The price of an airline, rail, ship or bus ticket
is the same whether purchased directly from the
carrier or from the agent. Yet, many travellers
drive several miles to the business district, pay
parking charges and stand in line at ticket
counter in order to purchase ticket when they
could have patronized a neighborhood agent few
blocks from home or business, or have placed one
phone call to an agent who will make reservations
and deliver the ticket the customer. Every time
traveller purchases ticket from a transportation
carrier he denies the travel agent a commission
which is allowed for in the price of any one-way
round trip ticket
Whether you prefer to travel alone, or desire
the company of others, independent and group
travel offers many advantages when obtained
throu gh travel agent.
So again, we refer to the question of the ad-
vantages of an escorted tour in contrast to the
individual who feels he time and money
by making his own arrangements. Perhaps the
solo traveller dislikes people, abhors any form of
so-called regimentaton, prefers to cut corners on
the of all features and prefers ordinary
hotels comfort and service.
Let's describe vacation trip arranged" by
the individual traveller who plans a rail trip to
Arizona tribune., 1961-03-01


titles him to visit various points of interest
route to California and returning home via diff
ferent route. The ticket agent points out various
sightseeing tours and hotels along the route and
our solo traveller explains that he will plan his
own features in each city after arrival. He has
written letters the hotels of his choice request
ing accommodations, however, in most instances
the hotel has neglected to forward return
fimation. This doesn't particularly bother our
traveller, since he's certain they received his
letter and everything is in order.
On arriving in Los Angeles he is delayed in
finding his luggage, since red caps give tour
groups priority in transferring baggage from train
to transfer companies. After approaching several
red caps he finally finds his luggage, halls cab
and proceeds to the hotel. With complete assur-
ance, he approaches the desk clerk, gives his
name and explains that he wrote for reservation,
although he doesn't have confirmation. The
clerk informs our traveller that the hotel does not
have his name file for any type of reservation.
Furthermore, they have been sold out for weeks.
Completely dsgruntled, our traveller halls another
cab and inquiries from the driver of another hotel
where he can get accommodations This is an
invitation to complete chaos.
The driver is always obliging but after inquir-
ing at several hotels and receiving the same re-
buttal, ''Sorry, sold out" our solo traveller dis
covers the figures on the meter and decides to
do his searching foot Chances are he will
eventually find a room at some second rate Motel
which is primed to charge the same rates as a top
hotel because of crowded conditions.
More disaPpoinments along the route with
emphasis hotels perhaps lost damaged
luggage, poor choice of sightseeing tours, too
much free time and gradual diminishing of funds
has peculiar way of completely running what
could have been well-ananged vacation.
On the other hand, the traveller who joins a
group escorted tour with every detail arranged for
by travel agent enjoys the very best that travel
has to offer. The group escorted tour is popular
with those who like the conviviality of travelling
with group and who enjoy sharing experiences
with others.
This type of tour is completely supervised by
a trained and experienced escort who is we'll
equipped to attend to all bothersome details such
as baggage handling and transfers, arrangements
with dining car stewards for convenient and ex-
pedient al service, cooperation with hotel
clerks in the proper assignment of rooms, coordi-
nation with all cab transfer and sightseeing com
panies, and complete cooperation with all railroad
passenger agents from time of departure to termi-

WHY do l need Travel Agent? How get
" more satisfaction out of travelling with an
Escorted Tour?"
These are questions which foremost in the
minds of the avera ge, inexperienced travellers.
Just as he consults his doctor, attorney or ac-
countant, so the wise traveller avails himself of
the travel agents experience and skill For more
than century, since 1841, travel agents have
been tightening the burden and dding to the
pleasure of the touring public.
There are few things in this world that
more fun than travelling. Yet, there number
of people who don't realize that of the best
ways to go about making the most of their travel
time and money is to go first to travel agent.
travel agent is expert in the complicated
details of arranging travel figuring out routes
and itineraries, reservations and costs. Exper-
fenced travellers travel agents services
because they can get confined hotel accommo-
dations and other reservations in advance so
important in foreign countries, especially where
space is limited. Furthermore, it's such con-
venience to have all details handled for you!
And remember, it often you time and
money when you utilize the services of a reliable
travel agent. Yet, it is the firm belief of the
jority of travellers that in order to use travel
agents services the client is charged fee.
