a Tno free Wednesday Zions Suchan wedding in Georgetown Nov 7 Wendy Thomson Its not too often that Tin rude to somebody hut I the other day Im not particularly sorry for It because I meant what said It all started with trip to the Winter Fair 1 cant remember when I was there last hut it was before I developed an much interest in livestock as I have now first place to fin It seemed was Into the where Arab stallions were being Judged It was a real eyeopener Well handled All the halter classes Ive Rone to see over the past two and hall years have been or Quarter Horses The handler would lirins lib horse in stand It squarely then sort of disappear by unobtrusive If the horse moved its head or foot a gentle tun on the lead or a movement of the handlers foot brought it back Into line The stallions handled as well as the mares But at some of the handlers were an exhibit In themselves Much of tho time the whole line tip was In a semi- uproar and the various people was talking to all commented that most of it was due to the handling you know that attitude of Here I with this barely manageable spirited stallion Watch how cleverly I can keep him In line Idiotic antics The handler directly In front of me went through such Idiotic antics that I was embarrassed for him He stood with his feet about a yard apart bent his knees stuck his rear out for balance then proceeded to the lead throw his around flick his whip and make faces while doing a weavey shuffle Down the line quite a few mrn in somewhat less extreme positions were fluttering handkerchiefs offering their hats for the stallion to nibble on slapping them if they In Ihe ring were six little twoyeareld fillies tiny things Most were being pulled poked and prodded and whipped by men three limes their sue The handlers were In frantic frcniy Ihe whole lime trying to position the ponies throwing dirl in Hie to make them look up teasing them a handful of grass to them out all time keeping one eye on the judge even d he were down the other end of the line If he so much us glanced up thai was the signal to double the efforts in case he caught a glimpse of your horses ears which must be forward and alert The whole scene was Indescribable- in Its The llttlo ponies were clean beautiful alert and miserable Mutilated I think horses of any breed are lovely animals I cant see why man has them by tying their heads up to unnatural angles standing them with their legs spread to an unnatural putting ginger under their so the horse will carry it up cutting the tall muscle so itll carry it even j deforming word for it the did and going through al sorts of hooves twice contortions supposedly to show m to Qr their horses good J keeping them In uproar Every time the stallion belonging to that one peculiar character began to stand square and firm the man would glance down to sec where the Judge was then give the horse a good whack with the whip on the far side to start It jumping around again showy showy and Im sure theres all kinds or little tricks of the trade that Ive never dreamed of Another horseman little put out my anger finally admitted Horses arc mutilated theres no getting from it one or horsemen in next ta box why He sort of shrugged and explained that stallions are supposed to be spirited They have to be handled In such way to bring that spirit out Accusation have heart conditions too you know Also it was pointed out more than once that If you were given a couple of good whacks with the whin or cuffs on the head before you left the stall Ijitcr when I asked a friend youd look alert at everything who has shown Arabs if it were too possible for an Arab to stand he said Of course Its just a real live matter of training But I showed artificial mechanized toys a stallion like thnt one who stood Guaranteed no character or straight and firm and quiet and individuality was accused of showing him like Anyhow registered my a Quarter Horse So I guess protest when the woman standing the judge likes spirit give bcside him spirit If it means a good cut burbled Arent they with the whip so what Just i things llie next class was Hackneys it make you feel like
