Mig Dnnbury Entry.
That New England sporting institn-
ton. the thirty-seventh annual dog show
of the Danbury Agricultural Society,
will be the usual success on next Thurs
Gay and Friday. 1t has been a boon to
cut the show from three TO two days,
for it means just so much less confine-
ment for the dogs, with no abatement OF
tho pleasure of the show. This is fair
week at Danbury. and hundreds of mo-
tcrists will run TO the Connecticut town
especially for the dog show.
The largest entries in the order o.
breeds, are Of shepherd dogs, elbows,
settlers. pointers, Pekingese, fox and
Airedale terriers 1 regret to note the
passing OF the big breeds the st. Ber-
nards and Great Danes Except for the
few benched at the Westminster show,
these are becoming rarities, and for tho
first time there Will be none at Danbury
The two breeds put the mastiffs and
bioodhounds out of fashion years ago,
and now in turn they have succumbed to
the shepherd dog and the tall hounds
Russian, Irish or Scottish.
There is gratifying increase in The
entry of Connecticut bred dogs. The
dog show committee is made up of the
officers of the Danbury Agricultural
Society, Samuel n. Rumble. Herbert n
Vreeland. J. Gerow butcher, Franz
Wells and G.. Mortimer Rumble and the
reason that has made them such liberal
supporters of the dog show is that they
want Connecticut folks 70 forsaka
keeping mongrels and to raise instea5
dogs that are worth at least s95 as
puppies and many times that if they
become show winners.
Shepherd Dog show Changes.
Two changes In the judges have been
made necessary for the specially show
ef the Shepherd Dog Club OF America at
p. A. y. Wideners estate, Lynnewood
Hall, Elkins Park, Pa. Benjamin e.
Throop has been called to England on
account OF the illness OF his wife and
his place will be taken by A A. Rost
and Mrs. L. +. r. Wanner will Judge
instead of her husband. who has TO
make business trip TO the Continent.
Alfred a. Thonet. who win judge the
breed at Tuxedo, was a captain in the
Czeeho-Slovak army and before the war
president of the Austrian Shepherd Dog
Club. He has judged at more than 100
shows of police dogs Ia Europe l feel
sure he will be able TO put Our judges
and exhibitors right in regard to the
proper standard for this breed. II will
certainly be a great relief TO have an
expert of Mr. Thonets experience TO
fridge shepherd dogs.
