WHITTAKER, manager of the Inter-Amer- fcan Horse Show, has ob- tained his objective in mak- ing the show, which starts Thursday and will last for four days, a quality event. For here you will find only the best—the best jumping horses in three nations and the best hunters obtain- able in this part of the country, which is noted for its good hunters. No green horses will be shown here, only rib- bon winning horses of recognized shows. In the 300 entries there are 86 different horses that represent some of the best stables in the country. The Meadowbrook stables are so crowded that the United States Army team, arriving today, will be taken to Fort Myer and vanned out to the show grounds each day. ‘The grounds are very lovely, situat- ed in a basin which is surrounded by large trees and shrubbery on all sides, the ring in the center is in perfect condition, the course and jumps all that they should be. Capt. Yanez of the Chilean team says he has never seen a place so nice for a show and he is delighted with the general looks of the grounds. LI A hundred boxes have been built with six chairs each. There are 750 reserved seats and 3,000 bleacher seats. The boxes and reserved seats are of a rustic effect and blend in with the lovely park. There has also been built an exhibitors’ stand, a band stand, an announcer’s stand and a press box. The box holders have a special parking place back of the boxes and altogether everything has been done for the comfort and en- joyment of the exhibitors and spec- tators. Everything is in readiness for this event, which will be the most impor- tant sporting event to be held in this part of the country for many a day. Many perscas from this part of Vir- ginia have taken boxes and will at- tend the show. * ok x ok Mr. and Mrs. John Jelke and their young daughter of Chicago are in| Warrenton staying at North Wales Club.
