"A strange sight, in llio form of an Indian riding down the main street on an ostrich, has been witnessed several times lately,'" says the Hast London (South Africa) "Standard." "Bv keeping his legs over the bird 's wings lie prevents it from using them, and" guides the bird by a rein round the neck. The rein end is also used as a whip -when the bird begins to slow up. The rider appears to have ' eompJete control of the mount."
