LITTLE RIVER SHOW.

■ — I RAIN SPOILS THE DAY. ' CAiRIRiYINIQ ON UiNiD-E'Rj TRYING 1 CONDITION'S. < 'The heavy rain on -Mo-ndey might ancll Tuesday morning absolutely spoil'Jt 'the (Little River Shsow, but. despite ' the very adverse conditions the show was carried out in every detail and tb'is acbiivamlop.it. is a credit to the ■fpllend'd orgtanikiatiion- of the official's and the pliuick elf exhibitors who' faced , tihe elements in, gum boots and sou' \ westers. The loss cif '£121111 i;n gate re-1 ceipts is n serious one to the Assoc-' iation and it iis fortunate that there is a reserve oif £300 whicihi the Assoc-' ia'tiio'ii has aGcuimullatiedl in its: twentyfive years- of existence. At the Last; annual meeting, held on August 4th, 1 'the 'balance of ■assets, over liabilities was fi'Sl'O .1123 3d : so. tbat the Associaticin .is really in a strong fmiainciial pcis-itiion and iit goes- to show the wisdom of building" up a reserve. Many wiM remem'ber the first show beldi by the Association! ten 1i909 on the cldl L'itl'le River 'Racecourse when the weather condition® were atrocious, j but the show was carried out. The thanks of the members and. ex- , hi'bitovs are due to the President, Mir Lew Co-op, the Vice-presidents Messrs i( S; 'S. Barclay and: T. IM-oukli and the ,] Secretary, IMr "VV. Stanbuiy and their ] ba.n-di of marshals and -stewards who carried out the preparation work for ( the show and the is'how itself wihen j conditions- were at their worst. The show tents Leaked, the stagings hiad ( to be re-dress-eidi and -d'riving rain ] Looked l as ilf iit, would spoil everything, ,c while in the cattle and 1 sheep pens and in tihe hcrse rings' the condition® were very muddy indeel. The Pre si- j dient set a ifine: example -by seeing that everything was carried out- to- ( the letter and armed- with a hammer he was round the tenits in. the pour- j ing rain driving in pegs. The Association ba's always he'sn. fortunate in ] having am enthusiastic bandi of offic-- ( ia'.is -and their mettle was- proved on ( Tuesday and the successful carrying - - out of the .Show was a; credit to them TIMS YE'AR'-S: ENTRIES'. | '■The entries for the Show this year showed] a decline which wais mostly e noticeable- in the- -h'orse section and ] junior classes, The follow ing t-alblfe i] gives the entries- for the- past three shows 1932 1933 1934 f ?he- p :iro -io:; 92 ■Homseis £50 -263 201 I ■Cattle ■!02 103 110 - Dogs 08 IS 17 ] .-Domestic 2(65 294 05-7 c Potatoes, 'Root-?-, etc..
