He was introduced at a tire dealers convention Monday as governor of California. QUESTION: Why are horeee mounted from the left and cows milked from the right? ♦ * * ANSWER: Horses, like many other animals, ere creetures of habit, and like to have things done the same way each time. They have been trained to understand that when you approach from the left side you may mount them; but they mipht be startled if you tried to mount from the right side. Using toe left side is said to have come frsm the rid days when riders, sack as the knight in chain armor which we shew, had to moaat a bars# with a leaf sword hanging by Us left side. If he had mounted from the right the weight of both left leg and sword would have to be thrown over the hone’s bade, milking it a clumsy operation. Cows these days are by no means all milked from the right side. Mast cows are milked by mackiae, is which case It doesa’t matter which side yea ase. In the days of hand i frsm the right side It is more natural for a righthanded person to reach under the milk bag with the right hand, as our pictures (B) and (C) show. ★ ★ * FOR YOU TO DO: Imagine there’s some enemy standing in front of you which you have to knock out fast. Take a swat at him through the air. Which hand did you use? Chances are, the right. This shows how a right-handed person uses his right for the Jobs further away.
