 Hare and Hounds. Variation 

 of cross-country running. It is a 

 healthy form of winter exercise in 

 which generally one or two, but 

 sometimes more, of the fleetest 

 runners participating are selected 

 as the hares, the remainder, un- 

 limited in number, being the 

 hounds. The hares set off at a fast 

 pace laying a trail of paper-cut- 

 tings as they go, and the pack, who 

 follow at an interval of about ten 

 minutes, endeavour to overtake 

 them. By adroitly doubling and 

 laying cross - trails the hares 

 endeavour to 

 avoid capture, 

 and frequently 

 manage to 

 throw their pur- 

 suers off the 

 scent. See Run 

 ning.
