'SHOULD AULD ACQUAINTANCE BE FORGOT?" 315 



in devising and carrying out "while-you-wait" plans 

 for the suitable housing and handling of a world's 

 animal fair, forget not BILL RAY. 



GEORGE HARDING & SON were the first to take 

 advantage of the facilities offered by the SADDLE 

 AND SIRLOIN CLUB for entertaining on a large scale. 

 On the eve of an important auction sale at the Yards 

 they properly christened the main hall of the Club 

 by giving a banquet to several hundred invited 

 guests. This was really the dedicatory service 

 celebrating the consecration of the Pedigree Record 

 Building to its present uses, and in accepting Mr. 

 HARDING'S invitation to occupy the toastmaster's 

 chair for that evening, I had the pleasure of review- 

 ing the sequence of events leading up to the results 

 that had then materialized, and of felicitating the 

 breeders of America upon coming into so valuable an 

 heritage at that time. Since then innumerable lunch- 

 eons and "get-together" dinners have been given 

 at the Club, at which matters relating to various 

 important interests have been effectively promoted. 



Old acquaintance should indeed not be forgot, 



and I must not close without some reference to 



! everybody's friend JACK HILL, long time steward 



of the SADDLE AND SIRLOIN CLUB. If the world goes 



not well with you; if work or worry gets you on
