Fewer Exhibits but Much High ier Quality: Sporting Dogs Win Championships: Chinese Owners Secure Severe Successes It is somewhat difficult to know what to say in general of the China Kennel Club's dog show at the Race Club on Saturday, for, if it was a matter for regret that the entries were fewer, at the same time there was no question but that the quality. was far higher than ever it has been before. Indeed, in this latter partic~ ular, there was' no comparison with even the best of any of the preceding shows, whichever that may have: been, and it is doubtful whether such. A fine collection of dogs ever has been een anywhere in China, at any time. The club must be congratulated on having such good and srenerous friends as the Stewards of the Shanghai Race Club, for the public stand is ideal for the purposes of a dog show and could not be wsaetl anywhere.
There were two classes which stood out as regards improvement, these being the Airedale terriers entry was Mr. P. H. Prevot's attractive Scottish terrier, Micky, which is justifying the good opinions: expressed when it Brst came out la winter. Critics were heard to say that its ears yet may spoil it, but they probably would be more correct, if they said its tail has a tendency to come too far forward. However, it is young yet and may develop either way.
