Saturday's paper hunting event took place in the Rubicon country. The hunt was laid by Mr.
Sparke for Mr. B. D. Beith and Mr. H. Herlofson, winners of recent hunts, and consisted of a run some 10 miles in length, starting from Miss Johnstone's Line.
The weather: was slightly overcast, and the recent ice had thawed out, but the going was very hard and the dust a great nuisance, At 3 p.m. the hunt was cast off by Mr, Martin Little, Acting Master, and after the first jump, proceeded at a leisurely pace in a ditection parallel to the Hills Road. The trail then led away to the right over a stone bridge and continued over the Hills Road towards Chipoo Creek.

From the flags, the hunt looked very picturesque; first, from away on the right, appeared a tiny pink dot, followed after an interval by others, then as the hunt took the jumps on the Yellow Josshouse line, there arose a mighty cloud of dust that obscured all but the leaders. One or two came to grief and their places were taken by others, but Mr. Springfield retained his advantage, and Mr. H. 8. Lindsay, fifth, won the heavyweight. The card reads as follows 1. Mr. M. O. Springfield on Desertland.
