During the second 'half of the meeting, everyone had the pleasure of listening to the guest speaker, Mrs. Shirley Cane of Hoskins. There are no formalities at the sta- ble; Mrs. Cane is known by one and is affectionately called Shirley by young and old alike. Shirley's talk was on hitching a pony toa cart and then she gave a driving Shirley had everyone view the parts of hamess used when driving, namely the collar, breastplate, lines and the backpad. There are three -aids used when driving -- the hands, the whip and the driver's voice. The attire worn by a driver in the show ring is a hat, jacket, fancy: white blouse, gloves, sturdy shoes, an apron (minus the bib) and you must have a whip.

Adrmore Audobon, alias Toby, was hitched into the hamess and cart, this particular model of cart known * as a Meadowbrook.

Pony Club's next meeting is March 29 at Hoskin Stables. Steve Daiken, a ferrier, will be our guest speaker.
