TO OUR READERS The publication of the third issue of The Charioteer, which coincides with the third anniversary ofParnassos, the Greek Cultural Society ofNew York, gives us the opportunity of making a brief statement about the aims and the activities of this new and vital organization. Parnassos was founded in March of 1958 by young men and women ofGreek and American origin who were interested in the promotion of cultural relations between Greece and the United States. Inspired by this noble idea, the charter members decided to organize a society through which they could achieve their purpose. They did so at a moment when there was a definite need for this project. In their endeavors they faced many difficulties, obstacles, and opposition without allowing themselves to become defeated. They continued their efforts with diligence, steadfastness, and faith in their convictions, and have succeeded in gaining well-earned recognition and respect from the leading intellectual circles of both nations. At first they centered their activities on lectures, panel discussions, and social gatherings, confined to members and friends of Parnassos, at which subjects of mutual cultural interest to both Greece and the United States were discussed. Later, as a consequence of these activities, The Charioteer emerged as a more po­ tent instrument to carry on the important mission of the Society. The aim of this periodical is to project to the wide English-speaking public Greek arts and letters in the many facets of their historical existence. This purpose has been well­ evidenced in the first three issues of The Charioteer. It should be stressed here that the young people who are dedicated to this movement believe firmly in the excellence of Greek culture and in its continuous beneficial influence upon all humanity throughout the ages. They believe that this influence can be even more significant in this era because it stems from the same sources of the Greek spirit. The mind of man continues to be dominated by precepts and ideals set forth in Ancient Greece, the Byzantine period, and now Modern Greece. It is most satisfying to note that these concepts, which the members and friends of the Parnassos Society embrace, are attracting serious attention and of­ ficial support from governmental agencies and national institutions of both Greece and the United States. We welcome every expression of encouragement and appreciate any con­ structive criticism given by those sincerely interested in our endeavor. We hope this interest and support will grow even stronger as we continue to pursue our mission. EMMANUEL E. MARCOGLOU President ofParnassos PARNASSOS EXECUTIVE COUNCIL President EMMANUEL E.

To assist in the detection of spurious and the correction of inaccu- rate pedigrees, is one of the purposes of the present publication, in which respect the first Volume has been of acknowledged utility. The two together, it is hoped, will form a comprehensive and tole- rably correct Register of Pedigrees. It will be observed that some of the Mares which appeared in the last Supplement (whereof this is a republication and continua- tion) stand as they did there, i. e. without any additions to their produce since 1813 or 1814. — It has been ascertained that several of them were about that time sold by public auction, and as all attempts to trace them have failed, the probability is that they have either been converted to some other use, or been sent abroad. If any proof were wanting of the superiority of the English breed of horses over that of every other country, it might be found in the avidity with which they are sought by Foreigners. The exportation of them to Russia, France, Germany, etc. for the last five years has been so considerable, as to render it an object of some importance in a commercial point of view.

I'm your host, Whitney Johnson. Today our guest is Ellen Bennett, CEO and founder of Hedley and Bennett. In 2012, Ellen Bennett was a line cook and a professional kitchen. When her boss was about to order new aprons, she said, "I'll make them instead." Ellen started with 40 aprons. A decade later, Hedley and Bennett has revenue of more than 20 million dollars. They sell to over 4,000 restaurants, and their clients include Martha Stewart, Mario Batali and Alton Brown. Currently in the sweet spot of her entrepreneurial S curve, Ellen has written a delightful book titled Dream First, Details Later, the book she wishes she would have had as a first-time entrepreneur. Ellen describes herself as half English, half Mexican. I would describe her as 100 percent disruptor. Whitney Johnson: Ellen, thanks for joining us. Ellen Bennett: Thank you, Whitney. Whitney Johnson: Tell us a little bit about the title of your book. Why did you title it the way that you did? Ellen Bennett: When I started Hedley and Bennett, I really wanted to find a book that resonated with me and it was really hard. Everything was very much black and white and not super descriptive, if you will. It was very businesslike, and I really wanted something that made me feel like I could do it and I could leap out into the world and make it happen, and it didn't exist.
