PAST THE THREE MILLION MARK.
At two minutes to three on Wednesday the three-millionth visitor entered Logan ark, and was greeted with cheers from the thousands who were present to witness one of tho greatest moments in the history of the Exhibiton. The lucky winner of the £25 prise offered by the directors was Mrs E. C. Mitchell, 182 Macandrew road, Dunedin. From midday crowds assembled inside and outside the main gates waiting for the moment that tho clicking turnstile would mark the reaching of the total. The day that followod was another Exhibition BuooeM, and the crowds were par-
ticularly large for a mid-week sesion. In all 43,640 entered the gates on Wednesday.
