in the water. Heavier of bone and of thicker coat, the Golden is the most recent breed of retrievers among the five kinds ex- ' isting in the world today. "MANY DUCK hunters feel a dog is essential to the pursuit," says Dee Bailey, who is a substitute teacher in Ocean City. "Frankly, I don't see how they get along without one," she adds. Both she and her husband, who is grounds foreman at Stockton State College, hunt. The retriever demonstrations will be held at 11:30 a.m. and 1:30 p.m. on Saturday and again Sunday during the New Jersey Wings 'n Water festival, which is a benefit for the Wetlands Institute.
