MAY HOLD A DOG SHOW.
Wa!Ia WaIIa Kennel Club VIII Decide
Matter Thursday.

Whether the WalIa Walla Kennel
club will hold a dog show some time
this fall will be settled at q meeting
of the club members to be held Thurs
day evening at the office of the Jones'
Scott company in the Jones building.
Many of the members are anxious to
hold a show this fall in spite of many
difficulties that generally attend the
holding of the first show.
1t lies with the members whether
we hold a show or not this fall" Sec
rotary George Mason said this morning.
We expect to have the matter decid-
ed definitely at a meeting Thursday
night. For myself l would be pleased
to see a show held this fall. 1t might
not be a financial success as a starter
but that is to be expected. 1t would
give the club recognition among own
ers of fancy dogs in this state and Ore
gon and at the same time would en-
courage local fanciers to breed better
