Asbrry Park Kennel Club is out with the
schedule for It's show OF August - and %
at the Beach Auditorium The habit or
copytns from previous show schedules Is
apparent IN thts one and secretaries should
note changes, the result OF kennel club leg
tslation. For instance. q list Of sporting
and non-sporting dogs IL copied from one
which had the error OF placing the fox ter
rier az sporting dog and all other ter
riers a. transporting. The American Ken
mel Club has decided that the fox terrier Is
not q sporting dog and is not entitled to be
put with dogs used with the gun and
hounds. The kennel club makes three d.
visions sporting. transporting and ter
riers-and decided against making the arof-
trary division OF terriers Into sporting and
non-sporting. Then at the last kennel club
meeting II was decided to recognize all for
essn dogs named in Count Byland's list OF
doeH In the Asbury Park schedule the
old small special list Of ten foreign breeds
IL again given. These errors should not De
continually repeated and ! call the atten.
ton of those concerned In the getting up OF
schedules for the fall shows to the neces-
kity of following the rules and the several
changes referred to-

We have a specially full classification at
Asbury Park. the total being 438 classes,
including winners and local classes. As the
principal officers of the club are specially
interested In Boston terriers there is very
lengthy classification for this breed. the to-
tai of classes being % Beagles have also
an exaggerated number OF classes, conslu-
ering that the support from beagle exhib-
ftors has been exceedingly limited OF late
It looks as II the entries would all be first
or second with twenty classes With these
two exceptions the classification Is for the
most part, conventional In its get-up. One
good innovation is made In the addition or
An extra class for dogs bred by exhibit
ors More Of these classes will do lot OF
good, as will also the classes for American
bred dogs, of which there are quite num-
Der In breeds where importations are still
prominent. The special prizes are attrac-
| tive enough to insure q good entry, even II
the two days at this popular watering place
was not a good enough drawing card for
those who want breath or the briny.
| The Asbury Park judges are Or. Gou-
| beaud for settlers and pointers; A. Clinton
wilmerding, for sporting spaniels; ]; L. de
| Fabry, for st. Bernards and Great Danes;

| This is a very good list and has many
| changes from what we have had of late,

| try.
