SO New York Society Gathers - InThrongs at *King Horse" to Reign During November—Competition Staged by Six NEW YORK, November 1.—King Horse will reign supreme during the month of November. The ninth an- nual West Hills race meet was held to- day on the estates of Henry L. Stim- son, Secretary of State, and Thomas J. ‘White, near West Hills. This was the last meet of the season on Long Island. ‘The National-Steeplechase and Hunt Association, which sanctions the meet, first started as a neighborhood affair, designated Harry S. Page, Edward Voss and F. Skiddy Von Stade as stewards. The judges were Sir T. Achley Sparks, Henry W. Sage and W.lliam W. Wil- Jock. The Race Committee included Frederic C. Thomas, F. Ambrose Clark, Earl Potter and Robert B. Young. The forty-fifth exhibition of the Na- tional Horse Show Assoclation of America, Ltd., which takes place in the tanbark erena of Madison Square Garden November 6 to 12, will perhaps be one of the greatest in the history of the organization. Nearly a lifetime has passed -since the birth of the National Horse Show. It lacks only three years of the half- century mark, when the first show was given in the City of New York. In 1883 the Horse Show was an innova ion, but within a few years it his become one of the institutions, n2t cn'y of the city, but the entire country. Tod'y still one of the oustandng soclal features of the year and a mcre com- manding _attraction than ever. Fre erick D. MacKay, chairman of the Ex- ecutive Committee, and Reginald W. Rives, secretary-treasurer, are very en- thusiastic over this year's show, which will be international in scope. Competition among the officers of six nations, striving for the famous inter- national military trophy over a difficult jumping course, will mark the high spot of the show. There will be more than 150 classes. for practically all types of horses, while the special features this year are novel and even more interest- ing than some of the highly appreci- ated ones in previous years. ‘There is such diversity in the pro- m and the prize list is so rich th: {{\: response in entries has been amaz- ing. While it is still early lo announce any definite figures on the number of horses that will take part, it is known that some are coming from the Pa- cific Coast, from Canada and from countless places in the Middle West and South. Of course, the East. and par- ticularly the metropolitan section, will | have a large number of entries. It has been announced by Mr. Rives that final arrangements have been com- | pleted for the appearance of the fa- mous mounted band of the 3d Cavalry, United States Army. at all seeciors of the national exhibition. This unit is in charge of Capt. Ward H. Maris and contains 48 men, all mounted on horses of uniform color. ‘The foreign countries that will par- Hicipate in the international military events include Germany, Sweden, Irish Free State, Hungary and Cinada and, of course, the United States. These men are the pick of some of the crack regiments of the world. They have gone through the hardest training that may be imagined and have won their spurs’ ccmpeiing with their fellow offi- cers. While national pride forces Americans to have great respact for the riders of the United States Army, ive these foreign offi- cers the palm: The records show that during the five previous years of com- 5:‘“” for that most coveted prize, International Military Trophy, a foreign team has never be:n dislodged Most of the foreign will be headquarters te ams.

Home Economics Units Unite in Entertaining The opening general meeting of the year was held by the District Home Economics Association in the dining room of the National Club House of the American Association of University ‘Women, 1634 I street northwest, Thurs- day evening. The four sections—the business women, the nutritionists, the homemakers and the textile section— of the association join forces in gen- eral meetings on three or four occasions during the season. At the first event the seasoning always suits the spices evoked for Halloween and Thanksgiving as the sections vie to win with spicy wit_for their contribution to the frolic. The preliminary game was a version of the old favorite of pinning the tail on the donkey. This time applicants tried to pick a husband from some two dozen pictures by being blindfolded and spotting their fate with a cane. Hus- bands or no husbands, the business women'’s turncthen came to show “Pages From the Past.” Miss Eleanor Enwright of the Washington Dairy Council was a very clever spokeswoman and gave | appropriate salutations to the appari-| tions of old photographs of prominent members. Among these a pretty “sweet girl graduate” photograph of Dr. Louise McDaniel Browne, a charming baby picture of Miss Cowsell, the associa- tion's president; some earlier groups of the Bureau of Home Economics and special pictures of Dr. Louise Stanley and Miss Anna Richardson stood out. ceived by the audience that later in the evening the judges awarded a prize of The textile section had a share of | attention in the showing of these pic- their home tomorrow evening for | company of physicians and | tures, for Miss Enwright emphasized again and again their heyday as shown by the yards and yards of goods in each costume.
