copyright on the plan I made it public for the benefit of others whenever 

 possible. The first thing necessary is an index — one of two pages to the 

 letter will suffice for all but the largest shows. Rule it as follows : across the 

 open two pages, as one will not be sufficient:

Get one of those files which when closed permit the papers to 

 be turned over for ready reference or an intermediate paper to be 

 removed. Have a receipt-book for the acknowledgment of entry-fees and 

 number each receipt. These are all that are needed for the purpose of 

 present and future record of the show, and you proceed as follows after 

 having distributed your premium-lists and entry-forms to all likely exhibitors. 



The first entry-blank received you mark as number one in the left-hand 

 corner of the form, and taking your receipt-book you fill out number one as 

 a receipt for the money received with number one entry, and so on with each 

 entry-form and receipt. An entry without a remittance should never be 

 numbered and filed, but put on one side to be attended to later, for the stub 

 of the receipt-book has to agree with the cash turned over to the treasurer. 

 Having sent the receipt for the money, the next process is to take the index, 

 turn to the initial of the owner's surname, and copy the entry as shown above. 

 Three columns are now left without entry, those giving the number of the 

 dog in the catalogue, the prize-money won, and the space showing the receipt 

 for that money. When these are filled in this book, the receipt-book and 

 the entry-forms are the complete record of the show.
