IN APRIL 1915 



be revived again is one of those puzzles we in the spring 

 of 1915 cannot solve. 



A few lucky owners managed to get away with a 

 few of their horses to England, and to win races too. 

 The Belgian-bred stock were improving every year 

 there is no doubt, and racing was going the right way 

 quite. Of course expensive sires could not be pur- 

 chased, but good results can be obtained without 

 extravagance. It is not necessary to specify horses, 

 but one of the first things all true lovers of 

 racing will wish for is that racing be restored. This 

 sounds empty as it is written but — who knows ! It 

 will be curious in future years to read what was written 

 in April 1915 !
