THE SPANISH WALK 



hunting or polo, it is an art like fencing or playing the 

 harp. In these da^^s of sports, fencing and high -school 

 riding are tabooed. Where school-riding is conserved, so 

 is fencing, and vice versa. And, to recur to our initial 

 idea, you do not require the same delicate mouth and 

 hands for the sports that you must have for the art of 

 horsemanship. 



Again, as to legs and the spur. The only rider who 

 uses his legs for any other purpose than holding on is the 

 school-rider. I do not refer to kicking a horse's croup
