to dictate to the good judgment of any of your officials in charge, but is merely a letter written by an old Dunedin boy giving you an outline of some of the successful methods I have seen adopted and of observations made over a period of years during my connections with exhibitions and publicity campaigns. If any of them contain the ’gerni of an inspiration to action for any of your citizens or those already active in the cause of your big Exhibition then my tiino will not bare been altogether wasted. RS.—While in Chicago I had tho honour of painting the largo coloured picture, which was used for promotional purposes, of the Permanent Building Exhibition of that city for Mr Joseph Loiter, the famous American millionaire whoso sister was tho first Lady Curzon of England, and who, by (he way, did not build the treasure vault of his Washington residence strong enough, as it has now been emptied of its liquid contents after a series of robberies. 1 also designed and painted tho picture of the Exhibition and Convention Hal! used as the headquarters of the lumber merchants of America. This largo building was built of logs and on tho show grounds close to Chicago.
