Perth loop opens Let's watch quarter horses RIVER RD. S. OF BRIDGE CHICKEN & CHIPS +44, FISH & CHIPS SHRIMP & CHIPS ETC. TAKE OUT ORDERS The Huron-Perth baseball sea- son opened in Walkerton Sunday afternoon with the home club downing Dashwood by a 10-4 count. The first inning proved disastrous to the visiting Tigers as they committed numerous errors and allowed seven Walk- erton runners to cross the plate. Starting pitcher Don Cassidy helped his own cause with a grand slam home run in the first inning. Dashwood scored all their runs in the fifth inning off reliefer Al Steinhoff. After one was out, Bill Schade drew a walk and Dave Rata reached first safely on an infield error. Back to back doubles by Gord Vincent and Phone: 238-2025 “Whitey" DenoMme and a bobble on Art Rader's grounder pro- duced the Dashwood total, Eugene Guenther went the dis- tance on the moundfor theTigers and Gord Vincent and Jim Hayter Jr. shared the catching duties, Walkerton out-hit Dashwood 9-3 and each team committed '7 errors in a rather loosely played contest.

JUNE 14—St. Marys at Exeter Winthrop at Goderich Brussels at Blyth 15—Hensall at Brucefield SHOP At WILSON'S JEWELLERY & GIFTS EXETER PLEASING YOU PLEASES US This coming weekend, the Exeter Saddle Club is sponsoring the first annual Mid-Western Quarter Horse Show on its grounds, 2% miles west of Exe- ter on Huron Street. What is hoped will be a big parade will leave Victoria Park at 7 p.m. Friday evening and wend its way up Main Street and enter Exeter Community Park by the northern entrance. The Exeter Board of Trade is solidly behind the com- plete venture of parade and show and it is hoped the entire town will get into a western mood for a few days. The show itself will run in two sections Saturday with quarter horses at halter in the morn- ing commencing at 9 a.m. and performances classes at 1 p.m. One of the first questions we asked John Burke, president of the Exeter Saddle Club was, "What is a quarter horse?" We are certain there are many others who would make the same query. So, John armed us with a good amount of informa- tion on the origin of the quarter horse. Some of this info will be found in another section of this is- sue. The quarter horse had its beginning as a race horse. In the 350 years since his origin, and while subjected to ranch and farm work, he re- tained his ability to dust the noses of horses of any other breed from a standing start up to the 440-yard marker or a quarter of a mile, thus establishing the name. 15—Brussels at Brucefield Hensall at Goderich 16--Blyth at St. Marys 18—Exeter at Brussels 19—Brussels at Exeter Brucefield at Winthrop St. Marys at Blyth 8:30 20—St. Marys at Goderich 21—Exeter at Winthrop 22—Blyth at Goderich 23—Winthrop at St. Marys The quarter horse breed originated during the colonial era in the Carolinas and Virginia. At that time match racing was the leading outdoor sport with races run on village streets and along country lanes near the plantations. The foundation of these quarter running horses came from the Arab, Barb and Turk breeds brought to North America by Spanish explorers and traders. Stallions selected from these first arrivals were crossed with a band of mares which arrived from England in 1620. The cross produces compact, heavily muscled horses which could run a short distance faster than those of any other breed. The quarter horse is one you can ride and enjoy and be proud of. He is the most versatile, best all-round horse the world has ever known. He is gentle and his easy-going disposition makes him an ideal mount for women and children. He is thrifty, easy to keep and train for mutiple uses and has no equal for rodeoing, cutting, roping, barrel racing and bulldogging. The quarter horse is intel- ligent, determined, sure footed, ideally suited to trail riding. His stance permits him to move quickly in any direction—to stop, start and turn with the ease and balance of a cat chasing a mouse. Popularity of the quarter horse and his rap- idly increasing numbers in this and other countries is readily apparent at many hundreds of halter shows and performance events sponsored by quarter horse owners. 27—Blyth at Brucefield 28--Exeter at Hensall Brussels at Winthrop 29—Winthrop at St. Marys 30—Hensall at St. Marys Blyth at Brussels 16—Goderich at Winthrop 17—Brucefield at Hensall 18—Brussels at St. Marys 20--Winthrop at Hensall Brucefield at Goderich 21—Blyth at Exeter 22—St. Marys at Brucefield Brussels at Hensall 23—Winthrop at Blyth 24—Goderich at Hensall 25—Exeter at St. Marys 27—Goderich at Brussels Blyth at Hensall 28—Brucefield at Exeter 29—St. Marys at Brussels 30—Goderich at Blyth Hensall at Winthrop Have You Tried THE EXETER 25C CAR WASH?

Announce New Healing Substance: Shrinks Piles Exclusiveheatingsubstanceproventoshrink hemorrhoids and repair damaged tissue. A renowned research institute has found a unique healing substance with the ability to shrink hemor- rhoids painlessly It relieves itching and discomfort in minutes and speeds up healing of the injured, inflamed tissue. In case after case, while gently relieving pain, actual reduction (shrinkage) took place. Most important of all— results were so thorough that this improve- ment was maintained over a period of many months. This was accomplished with a new healing substance (Bio-Dyne) which quickly helps heal injured cells and stimulates growth of new tissue. Now 13io-Dyne is offered in oint- ment and suppository form called Preparation H. Ask for it at all drug stores, Satisfaction or your money refunded.

ONTARIO DEPARTMENT OF LABOUR—It L. ROWNTREE, MINISTER CONFORMATION STANDARDS "A quarter horse is beautiful because his ideal conformation gives him unequalled grace and balance at all times." Head — The head of a quarter horse reflects alert intelligence. This is due to his short, broad head, topped by little "fox ears" and by his wide- set, kind eyes and large, sensitive nostrils, short muzzle and firm mouth. Well developed jaws give the impression of great strength. Neck — The head of the quarter horse joins the neck at a near forty-five degree angle, with a distinct space between jaw-bone and neck muscles to allow him to work with his head down and not restrict his breathing. The medium length, slightly arched full neck blends into sloping shoulders. Shoulders — The quarter horse's unusually good saddle back is created by his medium-high but sharp withers extending well back and combining with his deep sloping shoulders so that the saddle is held in proper position for balanced action. Chest and forelegs — The quarter horse is deep and broad chested as indicated by his great heart girth and wide-set forelegs which blend into his shoulders. The smooth joints and very short can- nons are set on clean fetlocks and the medium length pasterns are supported by sound feet. The power- fully muscled forearm tapers to the knee whether viewed from the front or back. Back — The short saddle back of the quarter horse is characterized by being close coupled and especially full and powerful across the kidney. The barrel is formed by deep, well sprung ribs to the back hip joints and the under line comes back straight to the flank. Rear Quarters — The rear quarters are broad, deep and heavy, viewed from either side or rear and are muscled so they are full through the thigh, stifle, gaskin and down to the hock. The hind leg is muscled inside and out, the whole indicating the great driving power the quarter horse possesses. When viewed from the rear, there is great width ex- tending evenly from top of thigh to bottom of the stifle and gaskin. The hocks are wide, deep, straight and clean, Bones, Legs and Feet — The flat, clean, flinty bones are free from fleshiness and puffs but still show much substance. The foot should be well- rounded and roomy, with an especially open heel. Stance — The quarter horse normally stands perfectly at ease with his legs well under him; this explains his ability to move quickly in any direction. Action — The quarter horse is uniquely col- lected in his action and turns or stops with notice- able ease and balance with his hocks always well under him, Noel \Teri, secretary of the Exeter Saddle Club sends along some information regarding quar- ter horses in Canada and throughout the world. As of the first of this year there were 4,627 quarter horses registered in Canada with Ontario having more than 1,000, the second highest total in the Dominion. Quarter horses are owned in every coun- try in the world, except Russia. The Ontario Quarter Horse Association has one of the largest following of youth activity classes in Canada. The inclusion of youth activities in a show is a must and will be one of the features of Satur- day's exhibition here.
