the sporting group. Bob and
Mary Lou Wilson’s year old
Clumber Spaniel female
“Frastan Devon Toffee” won
winners bitch, best of winn-
ers, best of breed and 4th in
the sporting group at Ft.
Worth.
The day before in Dallas
with a total entry of 3263,
495 in the sporting group,
the Wilson’s dog made the
same wins as she did at Fort
Worth.
Bob and Mary Lou Wilson,
while attending the Cruft’s
dog show in London, Eng-
land this past February, saw
the Clumber Spaniel female
and purchased her. Since
imparting her into the Unit-
ed States “Devi” has become
the too winning, number 1

■
ally recognized in 1884 wheii?£j

century and is considered??:
the aristocrat of the Span-?-?:
iels, taking its name from:?*
Clumber, seat of the Duke of???
Newcastle. For many years??:
it was bred exclusively for??
work on the great estates of1 £
England.
The Clumber is a superb.-:?
game finder that will tackle-??
any cover, painstaking and?*]
thorough. Clumbers are?it?'
flushing game dogs and are.??
used for many kinds of
gundog work. Their lovely
dispositions and docility??;
make them easily trained in
field work. The Clumber is
mare massive and different?:?
in color and disposition from??
the other Spaniels. The Clu-??
ber is a heavy, square,??
massive animal weighing?:?
from 50 to 80 pounds. The ??
Head is big, with deep set ;
eyes and a thoughtful ex-?:?
pression. The coat, which is .

One of the requirements
on the patch was to discover
their city and the signs of
nature located there. After
their hike the girls planted a
rosebush in memory of John
G. Nickell. Mr. Nickell was a
resident at the care center
and passed away on March 7.
His wife Lillian Nickell ac-
companied the girls while
they planted a Miranda Rose
which was her husbands
favorite. Then the girls hung
a murial on the nurses
station for their ecology
project and visited the resi-
dents for the remainder of
their time. They sang songs
and entertained and I know
everyone had a great time.
