R.9E Cow Palace Mounties Due Officers and men of the fabled Royal Canadian Mounted Police turned their horses toward San Francisco this week to lead the million dollar parade of prize ani mals converging on the Cow Pal ace for the opening Oct. 31 of the 1952 Grand National Livestock Ex position, Horse Show and Rodeo. Moving with them along the live stock trails and bridle paths of the nation were 3.229 head of the coun try's finest beef and dairy cattle, swine and sheep en route from 294 purebred ranches In 17 states and the pick of the nation's equine atistocracy. Performances of their world-re- knowned Musical Ride by the Roy al Canadian Mounted Police will highlight this year's arena special ty sets which are the most spec tacular ever presented in the his tory of the .Show of National Championships." The ride is a highly complicated series of patterns and figures done by a highly trained groun of men carrying guidon-decked lances. It starts at a trot, goes into a canter and ends with a charge at break neck speed. The charge invariably has brought audiences to their feet as the red-coated riders Informa tion thunder the full length of the arena with lances lowered and ston suddenly a few feet from the far rati.

Arthur Allen's sensa tional working sheep dogs, and the Pope Pony dray bitch working in conjunction with the massive six horse drsft teams of Coberly West and Raymond Church, These specialty acts provide a change of pace from the rough and tumble of the Grand National Ro deo Championships finals, the clas sic beauty of the full-division Horse Show events snd competition In the National and Pacific Coast Cutting Horse Associations' Championships.

You know, folks are inclined to think of our government in lot of differ ant ways as a row of marbla columns, or a towering doma of granite as an array of silk hats and frock-tailed coats as hour up hour of stirring oratory, and sheaf upon sheaf of Imposing documents. But these things don't constitute' government. All those things are just tha ornaments and tha decorations, tha gear and tha raiment, tha tools and tha implements of the real government. No, tha real government isn't hidden behind any marbla columns or be neath any doma of granite. Instead you'll find it in humble places in schoolhouies, fire stations, general stores, garages, and vacant buildings all over tha country places set aside where people can vote on election day. And rather than silk hats and frock-tailed coats, tha traditional garb of govarnmant is tha gingham of the housewife, the worsted of tha account ant, tha poplin of tha mechanic, and tha denim of tha farmer. Instead of stirring oratory and Imposing documents, you'll find that real government boils down to just tha brief words of ldentlfication,.the pull of a lever, or a simple mark on a ballot that indicates tha free choice of tha people. That is government . . . American style. That is govarnmant of tha people, by tha people, and for the people.
