I "have never attended a better managed sluiw.” Such \vas the remark of a horseman who has attended horse shows in all parts of the country over a period of more than -10 years. He was among the hundreds of interested specta tors at the new show ring of the Southern Pines Country Club last Friday, on the occasion of the first annual Southern Pines Horse Show. He added that you wouldn’t see better jumping any where, including the National.

Not only were there plen ty of entries in all the classes, but there was quality seldom seen in a winter show The clas ses were run off smoothly, with out delays or interruptions. Parking arrangements for spec tators -i’ere well provided, though another year more space for ringside parking should be pro vided if it can be arranged. Many more spaces could have been sold had there been more room for the cars. All in all, it was a pleasant occasion, b<'th from the stand- lioint of spovt and of sociability.

Some of the answers, indeed, point to a courageousness and belief in the future that we old er folk would do well to emulate. For instance, only 10 per cent of those questioned expressed the belief that government jobs should be provided for yoyng people until times improve, and 61 per cent said that if they had troub!‘i finding jobs they would blame themselves As a further comment, 90 per cent of the young men and women questioned believe that the best cure for unemployment among youth and for young peo ple in jobs they don’t fit is more preparation for specialized jobs. This note of encouragement comes at an apt moment. For with industry once again on the move and already reporting se rious shortages among the appli cants for skilled jobs in some brackets, youth is shown display ing a confidence that will take advantage of these new oppor tunities, and that augurs well for the future of America. 16th anniversary.
