dividually and collectively, the most
noted collie breeders decided to have
q try at it, with the result that they
all got q surprise when they found
the quality Of the competition they
had to buck.
The puppy dog class contained the
outstanding pups of the year. The
class for best of breed numbered five
champions, each one better than the
last. And no matter how he placed
them, the judge was sure to be wrong.
TT Is indeed a curious sight to see
i 10 grown men and women down
on their hands and knees before
10 low-slung pups, each one holding
his dogs tail up at just such an angle
and posing his dogs head in just such
position, while an eleventh person
solemnly parades back and forth look
ing them over. with head cooked first
on one side and then on the other,
with chin in hand at times and with
thoughtful frown on his forehead.
It's tough spot for any judge.
The English bulldogs always are
a center of attraction at any show,
and when you get As benched at one
place you have something to look at.
Breeders of bulldogs seem to have
more imagination in naming their
pups than other breeders. Among
those present were White London Fog,
Drinkmoor, Homebrew, Springlake,
Tugboat Annie and Dark Angel.
TT IS indeed to be regretted that
both the judging and the bench
ing were in the one room. Were
It possible to have the judging on
the upper floor, the spectators, the

more comfortable. The relief from
