you little dear!" What a perfect
darling!' "Oh, isn't he just too sweet"
These were few of the milder excla-
nations heard at the Panorama rink
which society invaded in full force for
the fifth Los Angeles cat show. AL
the cages were full yesterday, and
those who had been kept away on the
first two days by the rain attended In
all the splendor of sheath gowns and
directories, until the exhibit room was
full and line of people was left stand
ing outside.
Never before in the history of Los
Angeles have SO many fine long haired
cats been exhibited. The work of judg-

ed by Mrs. G. D. Hindley last night
Mrs. Hindley is a Santa Barbara ex-
pert, and has had much experience in
England, where she exhibited a fine
kennel Of cats at the Crystal Palace
shows. No better judge could have
been found on the coast, and the decis-
ions were satisfactory to everyone con-
cerned.
More than 142 cages were flied with
the most valuable cats, which were
grouped into seventy classes by the
committee. Besides the prizes in each
class, a special cup prize was awarded

the general classes.

was the center Of most attraction dur
ing the day. He occupied the large
cage at the entrance to the building.

Of climate, his hair was not in the best
of condition, but his sapphire eyes were
as beautiful as ever.
