onened at Madison Square Garden yes
terday and there arc SO many dogs in
the exhibition this year tha, they arc
henching them N the basement, thing
that never has been done before.
It seems that the breeds they have
,elected for the lower floor arc just
the ones that are going TO dislike it
most. Down there they have blood
hounds and Scottish deorhounds.
those lovely, graceful creatures whose
onlv rivals arc the Russian wolf
hounds. These, too are down in the
basement, and the lofty st. Bornards;
and as we walked around we wondered
why they hadn't put the sleepy little
Schipperkcs or the superciious toy
spaniels down there instead They al
ways appear TO be living above their
surroundings, anyway. Perhaps it is
because their noses arc eternaily Gle
waited
All OF the dogs have an air of OK
treme boredom as il is. and one can
not help feeling that it is good thing
we humans DO not know what they are
thinking about us.
A Dog Fight? No, No.
The Airedales arc bearing it beau
tifully on their benches. All were
serene with the exception Of Defiance
and War Chief. They seemed inclined
10 start something that looked like p
fight, but two kennel men nipped it in
the bud and assured the bystanders
that the dogs were only playing. The
others stood up straight and smart
looking, like 1922 model flappcrs with
long legs encased in heavy wooden
stockings and their narrow shoulders
squared.
Right across from them are the bull
terriers, those fascinating snow-wh;to
dogs with triangular eyes Ninton P.
Breese is Judging these dogs and he
did something quite radical in making
his choice.
Champion Attire Alive came into the
ring looking : though he were sure of
the ribbon. He had on as much make
up as a chorus girl and when Mr.
Rreese Inadvertently pat.ed him he en-
veloped every one IN the ring in a
cloud of powder.
Champion Lionhcart and Champion
Noross Thunderor were there, too. and
Nr. Brecse chose them for first and
second over tho crstwhile invincjhle

gave for his decision was that Lion
heart and Thunderer we're biz and
muscular and in fighting trim. while
AAlilre Alive was lighter and softer.
Greatest Dogs on Earth"
There was cons siderable excitement
IN the vicinity Of the chows. partly
because Greenacre Ii Ping Tow had
won again and partly because he was
owned and shown by the popular mo-
non picture star E. K Lincoln. 1t
va vas some time before We could locate
Mr. Lincoln. and we finally found him
over among the Boston terriers.
Trying to buy a new one" he ex-
7alned With enthusiasm. They are
nc greatest little dogs on earth"
"Bctter than elbows ?" we asked
ar better" he replied. "But Mrs
Lincoln likes the elbows"
At this. Ii Ping Tow rolled over
on mis- back. stuck hls paws UP in the
ar. and looked ingratiating. He is
the handsomest dog we ever saw
Bright red with big fril around
his neck. and a chubby face which sue-
gests that every week is smile week.
Mr.. Lincoln bought Ii last autumn
