Voice of the Tennessee Walking Horse M©re Party Line Feels “Pari of the Family” “Our Charity Horse Show was a big success. The Walking Horse classes were lull and were a big attraction to all viewers,” reports Barbara Krejci, Rural Route 1, Fort Calhoun, Neb. “I love your magazine and look for­ ward to each issue. In the past, I have felt far from other raisers of Walk­ ing Horses, but the magazines seem to make me feel like part of the family,” she adds. (That's great, Bar­ bara. The Voice is really “reaching” you as Mary Frances and I hope it is “reaching” others.

I read you magazine from cover to cover, and hope it will grow and grow. Best wishes to you and Mrs. Green.” (The only error in that letter is that Mary called my secretary-wife Mrs. Green instead of Mary Frances.

She "must have drooled” over some of the old- time news we had in the July issue. Here’s how she spoke in a letter dated July 6: "I think it would be nice if you could give descriptions of some of the horses like Wilson’s Allen, Last Chance, Trouble and so forth. A lot of people ask me what color and how large these horses were and I can't tell as I don’t know—even though my own horses have them in their line­ age. Our stud has a lot of Last Chance and some others that breed back to Hunter's Allen F-10........... “Friend” Mary Writes In “Lee and I took a trip to Montana. "I shall call you Ben, because any­ We visited Pearl Tompkins. She took us to her pasture and it was a thrill­ ing sight to see those little colts taking a good running walk. We also stopped BROODMARES at Ethna Friesens. She was working with her Walking Horses—getting AND ready for the sale at Colfax. Heard that one of hers sold for the highest YEARLINGS price at the sale. It is a full sister to my mare.” (Mrs. Glasco, we will do our best to tell everyone about the old J. G.
