Chesapeake Bay retriever trials
are held annually on both the
Eastern Shore Of Maryland and
Long Island, N. Y.
There are several interesting char
acteristics Of this breed. The most
prominent Is the dead grass color of
these dogs. This may vary from q dry
straw color to a dull brown. Very
noticeable Is the eye color OF these
dogs. which is marked, light amber.
In most breeds 1t would be considered
too light. yet 1t is a standard color
OF this breed. Strangely enough, all
the puppies have brilliant blue eyes

this curliness crops out with extreme

A DOGS Life
BY r. r. TAYNTON.

What a dog club that really is up
on its toes and has an interested
membership, all Of whom work harmo-
niously, can do with a first show is
well demonstrated by that recently
held In Pittsburgh.
This was show that had two
strikes on 1t to begin with. It was
replacing a. fixture that had a mega
tive reputation which the new organ
ization had to overcome.
1t was tWo-day affair, one of
those days business day which meant
that in order to attend. exhibitors had
to take an extra day away from their
jobs.
In addition, several important foot
ball games were scheduled for that
week end as counter attraction for
those ticket purchasers who might
just be interested in spending a pleas
ant afternoon.
Yet the Pittsburgh dog show
pulled an entry Of more than
$50. The largest crowds ever to
witness dog show In that area
crowded the huge armory both
days.
There were extremely large entries
in several breeds, notably pointers,
cairn terriers, cocker spaniels, dachs-
hunds. and some others. and there
were representative entries in a large
number of other breeds.
ca. Found. black cocker spaniel

as the size Of the purse and the esthetic

Sailor were bred with some local hound

Premieres, however. are not a bad

films. And this one, in spite Of the
fact that the picture is not rated any

is because players do not study their.

Abbey Theater's plays never are dull
or mediocre; they sparkle with wit or
they are full of good. sturdy drama.
Much of the pleasure of watching
them springs, of course, from the
harmony of their playing. The Abbey
Players are a definite unity. They
have grown up together from the
DAYS when w. B. Yeats, Edward Mar
tyn and Lady Gregory founded the
Irish Literary Theater and began to
develop from the Irish people the
kind Of actors who fitted in with their
ideas of what the theater should be.
And having grown up together in
the Abbey Theater they are filled with
a loyalty that even Hollywood's gold
can seldom sway, a loyalty which
makes for harmonized beauty in their
playing.
PLAYS, however, still are the Abbey
Theater's chief. asset, something one
might expect of theater founded by
playwrights. The Irish playwrights
the fellows who write for the Abbey
Players, can always be counted on to
produce something vital. Even when
they produce a play which Is below

the Irish playwights produce plays
which live.
