Bastrop has had their Inst regu-
lar show fot this year and it was
very successful We had ipproxi-
mately Xta entries and the siviw
was over by 11 p m Kveryonc
seemed real pleased with the sad-
dle blankets and reins that were
given as prizes. The show was
judged by Barbara Reed and is
usual site did a real fine job We
had contestants from as far as
Burnet to the north and Houston
! from the south so 1 guess we are
getting to be pretty well known
! Tlie shows nre really serving
I their purpose in as much as a pel
i son can sit and watch the per-
• formance of each horse and actual-
ly see the improvement in each
horse as the time goes by. That
means that tin- young people arc
spending their time working and
training these horses and that is
j what it is all about, so to speak,
Tlie next show will be Smlthville
, on July 26th and that wall be their
last regular show of the season
The final show will !*• at Elgin on
. August ltith and there the final
awards wall lie made Remember
that all the points in the past shows
| wall be added to the points that
! are won in the final show and the
j lioy and girl that come out of the
final show with the most total points
I will receive a beautiful new trophy
I saddle each I still have four events
thai have not been sponsored by
someone All it costs is ten dollars
[ami it will make some youngster!
very happy to have one of those
i buckles These buckles will be
awarded to the contestant that has
won the moM points in any single j
'event throughout the year.
Something to think about' If you
wen- on trial for being a christian,
j Would there tie enoilirh eVldenci to
1 innvict you?
