L rise, at morn, with eyes like lead, And then, at night, I go to bed. _ Comfortably â€" seated ° in the Grand Stand, I am waiting for the races to begin. What an attractive place it is. The scenery is enchantâ€" ing. Before us is a beautiful lake, with a small waterfall and dozens of white ducks and geese passing and repassing in differâ€" ent formation. There are some white swans and even some black ones. What a picture they make. But I mustn‘t forget the Goose kler and scraper can â€" make it. From where we sit it looks like satin: â€" People are swarming in and the seats are filling up. What different kind of a crowd. There are young and old, â€"more men than women. The majority are in. terested in their programs. Some have other printed matter they are reading. Men alone are figuring on the margins of their programs.

Of course she is stared at and that is what she wants. Most of the womâ€" en wearâ€"smart tailored gowns and dark glasses. The atmosphere is one of expecâ€" tancy. Of course every one hopes his special horse will _ come in . The trumpeter appears and the clear notes of his call are very welcome. Now for the first race.

The gun goes off, and so do the horses. Before one realizes, they are around the track. The winner is being congratulated, the horses blanketed and led away. . o One hears oh‘s and ah‘s at difâ€" ferent tempos â€" *"Whoâ€" would have thought that would happen?", "Did you see anything like that before?", "I told you so but you wouldn‘t believe me.", "Come, let‘s have a drink. Maybe you‘ll have better luck next time." There are other exclamations â€"â€" "Gee whiz, you mean I won thirty dollars? Sarah just look at this. I‘m going to take half and bet again." From another one, "I got back a little more than I put in and that‘s good enough for me." There is an exodus toward the cashiers, some to collect and othâ€" ers to place more bets. The same performance is enacted after each race. _ But it is very noticeable toward the end of the afternoon that expressions on the faces are changing. The winners are lookâ€" ing smug, and disappointment is plainly seen on the faces of the losers, Of course there must be many more losers than winners, or the race track owners couldn‘t afford to keep up this magnificent estab. lishment, and have it run only ten weeks in a year. Each track has its own fire department, and corps of workmen and witchmen are kept on the payroll all year round. Besides, race track owners are not in business just for fun. Horse racing is an exciting game and the queer thing about it is, the losers are the most welcome.
