The theme should be general enough in nature so that floats and costumes can fit many moods. The 1970 theme: Happiness Is . . . was submitted by Mrs Itandy Lott. The 1971 theme "Typically Western won four tickets for Mrs. Bob Buschke. They both provided a wide scope for the floats.

Victoria, Texas writes My two-year-old filly is gentle but when I get on her she turns in a circle. This makes it hard to get on. I don't want to punish her and I don't know how to stop her. What can I do? This is a natural thing for young horses. In all problems in mounting, it is easiest to tie the horse to something solid with a strong rope around the horse's neck and run it through a halter or a bosal or nose band so the horse can't get away. Spend a little time teaching her to stand. Get on and off many times, from both sides, until the horse is relaxed and ready to stand. Then remove the tie-rope and do the same thing at the same place. Have your reins Just tight enough to control your horse, but not tight enough to make her back. Keep the tight rein a little tighter than the left if she is turning to the left, as I suspect. Gus Schaffer of Toronto. Canada asks I am breaking a three-year-old gelding and he rides gentle but doesn't want to walk fast and he won't go straight Can you tell me how to straighten him out? You have asked two questions, each of which needs n chapter in which to be answered fully. However, they are good questions and so briefly; ride your colt with a snaffle bit or a hackamore. Take one rein in each hand, don't worry about neck reining, teach him to follow his head in either direction by using the bearing rein (Inside rein). He must travel straight and by this, not only must his head be straight in front of him at the walk and jog, his hind legs must fol low straight, behind the fore legs. Learn to walk with him, as the horseman's expression goes. Squeeze alternately with your left leg and then tl' right in time with his left and right hind leg. This will cause him to walk faster.

On Channel two's noon news on Sept. 21, the item was read and the TV camera was aimed at Mr Knrmcivlc who works at the station and did not expect to hear the item on the program! (Thanks, Betty). A feller sent us the following item titled "Invisible Depend ent": "employees and employers and ranchers today not only have themselves and their fam ilies to support. They must also earn enough to support one oth er person, according to the U. S. Chamber of Commerce. Through his taxes, Mr. Citizen supports almost one fourth of a govern ment worker, one lourin or a u.oifaro rcrinient and one half of a person on Social Security."

Phil has this thing against castles. He told Hazel he'd go tnrougn one and they chose to make thnt nnn the Edinburgh Castle. By the time they finished their tour of Ireland they naa stayed nvornieht in several castles, ev en Hazel's enthusiasm for cas ties had diminished. Ireland Their guide In Ireland was Patrick Keene. 27 years old, good looking and not married Hazel felt their 10 days in Ire land was too long, five days would have been enough. The ears travel 30 miles an hour ov er narrow and rough roads. In the first castle they stayed In, thev climbed 88 steps to the tower. They were in the room where the Aga Khan had stay ed. The bath tub was super long and narrow at least 15 feet long. In Ireland as in England and Scotland, people walked a lot. Thev seldom saw fat people. They were most impressed with the east side of Ireland for its beautiful and good crops. The Mahoneys came from Cork County on the west side. Even after the rock fences have been built, the walls of the houses are made of rocks and then whitewashed, the ground is cov ered with rocks. Milk cows and cattle and hay seemed to be their principal crops. Carts with milk cans were pulled by a donkey or horse. The people are happy although they may not have a tooth in their head. The Irish people take you into their hearts. A favorite stop was at an Ir ish home where they had a most delicious stew made with vegetables grown on the place, soda bread and some kind of pudding. They stopped to see Pat Lennon who worked for the Hynd families in Morrow Coun ty but had returned to Ireland. Here they enjoyed conversation, tea, soda bread and ginger cakes. Hazel doesn't like big cities and so didn't like Dublin. Another highlight was visit ing High Butterby in England. This is where the Hynd famil ies lived and for which Butter by F!ats down Willow Creek from Cecil was named. KNOX'S SEE OUR HUNTERS' DEPT. For Camps and the Hunter 1 Qf.
