CHEVIOT COLLIE CLUB.

The annual trials in oonne-tkyn .with the Cheviot Collie Club were held _cu the TVoolshed grounds, by permission of Mr G. T. Pulley, on Friday , and Saturday, and proved very successful. On the opening day of the trials tho weather was very unpleasant, heavy rain falling during the day. Mr TV. O. Rutherford, of Montrose, officiated as judge, and, as usual, gave every satisfaction to the competitors.

Some excellent performances were made, and the Cheviot Collie Club is to be congratulated on the marked success of the meeting.
