TRAIL RIDERS ENJOY MERRY WEEK-END
A harvest moon of an evening, and with the tang of frost clear in the air,
riding becomes the most thoroughly enjoyable sport for the autumn time. A tinge
of gold coming on the leaves, the vista from the hill tops of spreading fields
stooked with grain, and a glimpse of river, vivid with its icy color of autumn
blue... there is no way to appreciate it so perfectly as to ride through it!
This fall clubs have been organized, and many jolly trail rides are enjoyed by
the members who ride out to the camps and enjoy coffee around the fire. Club
names have not been chosen yet, but the riders are keen to make theiir clubs
really strong organizations.
A week-end ride was arranged when a number of horsemen and horsewomen rode out
to Bonnie Braes at Clover Bar, camping by the way. On Monday a gymkhana was
arranged. Several cars with visitors arrived for the gymkhana and thoroughly
appreciated the clever riding and enjoyed the races.
Among those to ride out to Bonnie Braes were Mrs. Vera Malton, Miss Clara King,
Miss Helen Conroy, Miss Docherty, Miss Edgar, Miss Parlee Blackerby, Miss Betsy
Blackerby, Miss Margaret Gemmell, Miss Jean Chatham, Miss Alice Carlton, Miss
Evelyn Allan, Miss Helen Ramsay, Mr. A. Wensley, Mr. J. Morton, Mr. W. McClure,
Mr. Bob Guy, Mr. Gordon Ferguson.
Of the juniors, those to go were Bud McDonald, Gilbert Cole, Henry Wensley, Ed.
Raymond, Dick Morrison, Earl Weiss, Howard Weiss, Larry Parsons.
About twenty-five members of the Greening school enjoyed long rides over
the week-end. On Saturday a party rode out to the camp at Black Mud and had tea
in the early evening. Among those to ride were Miss Welson, Miss Wainberg,
Misis Friedman, Miss Sunny Ponton, Mr. Ted Day, Miss Cooper, Mr. Allan McGavin,
Miss Alice Carlton of Ottawa, Miss Grace Bard, Miss Sheila Cairns, Miss
