Kumara Races

EASTER MONDAY AND TUESDAY. 1 The above races will bs held on Easter Monday and Tuesdtf, -*rk*a tfo» Kumara Jockey Club will hold their Autumn.•fixture and only meeting of the year. Judging by Hhe acceptances appearing in : another column, and the support- horseowners are giving the fixture, there is offlly the want of such weather as we .-if now experiencing to make the meeting a success financially and otherwise, and what club, deserves "support; more than Kumara, ■who hold only one meeting a year, and aJI profits accruing therefrom 1 arc spent on appoiatmen>ts. Tlie course to-day is a picture, witih all its 'buildings in thorough repair, nicely painted, fences in order and everything attended *o thit helps the public to forget their worries of business and lay themselves out for a couple of days enjoyment oniihe Kumara Jockey Cflnb's"propeiifcy. Glancing at the aoceptiances one is at once struck at the excellence thereof, no less than ten have paid up in tlie Trial Stakes, eleven 01 the mile itrot, six in the Dillman's "Handicap, five- in the Kumara. Handicap, four in the Hurdles, and ten. in /tJie mile it-rot. Tlie railway time-table for both days ib excellently arranged, two trains will carry passengers down on both days, and two trains back on tlie first day, and one «.n the second. Vehicle traffic alcTig the road has also been seen to, and traips a-ro coming from as far, down «s.Kaneiri io ply -tiieir calling along the road. Excellent accommodation like this will help further to make the meeting point fsuccess. Even if the worst happens ami the day turns out : misera!ble, the club's appointments are of suoh an improved nature as. to make one comfortable. The Timetable appears in another column, and as almost everyone you meet say they axe going to Kumara at Easter, Jt "will be to their advantage to look it up.
