Hammond led for the first 100 yards which he covered at a cracking pace to turn at the four lengths with a clear three yards Then Lawrence gradually lead. overhauled his rival, and finished the race 7-3/5 secs, ahead of the Shanghal

STRAIGHT FROM THE SHOULDER

·(BY NO QUARTER)

On Sunday, when I looked at the piece of damp sea- weed which Aunt Fanny gave me, I knew there was going to be a typhoon, and sure enough I was right. Or nearly right, because there nearly was, wasn't there. I got so" excited, and Sebastian positively wouldn't eat his bone! I do think animals are marvellous, don't you? I mean that sort of animals,--the nice kind; not creepy-weepy ones. (Stop me when you've had enough).

A friend of mine once had a little doggy called Pansy, a lady-doggy, and this friend was rather naughty I'm afraid, and used to get intoxicated at night.

One night he fell down in the snow, and Pansy came and looked at him sorrowfully, (Dogs are so human, aren't they), until he looked up and said:-"Paney, you ald bitch, get me out of here, and its worth a packet of Pratts to you..

Pansy trotted off, and fetched me of the Club this year, and ne
