WINTER SHOW

SUCCESSFUL OPENING “TO ADVERTISE GISBORNE” INCH EASE IN EXHIBITS LARGE CROWD ATTENDS With the opening of the doors at / o'clock hist evening the first members of a large crowd commenced to enter the woolstore of Messrs, Common, Shelton and Company for the lourteenlh annual Show of the Poverty ltav Winter Show Association, and by S o’clock, when the official opening of the Show took place, there was a large attendance. The crowd endeavoured to see the numerous sections before the opening ceremony was performed by the deputy-Mayor, Mr. H. liolincs. The brightness of the trade exhibits was also a feature.

In introducing the deputy-Mayor, the president of the association, Mr. T. G. Johns, expressed the gratification of the committee at the wholehearted support of the public and businessmen of Gisborne. A campaign had been made for members, and the membership hud grown from GO to 500. lie wished to impress upon the public the fact that the Show did not. belong to the committee, but to the citizens of Gisborne. The Show was becoming logger and better every year and it was the wish of the association to stage it to advertise Gisborne and its produce. He added that the appreciation of the efforts of the association, judging by the crowd, was very encouraging.

“This is the fourteenth Winter Show to be held in Gisborne, and I am sure that you will agree with me, after you have inspected the various exitibits and considered the numerous Competitions, that it easily surpasses any previous one in point of interest and novelty,” said Mr. Holmes, after apologising for the absence of the Mayor, Mr. P. W. Coleman, ALT’.

IXG RE ASI XG POTTT.A RTT Y. The exhibits had increased in every section, with the exception of the literary section, he pointed out, and for this he could give no reason. Although it should have beet) belter supported, the fact, that it was not was compensated for b,v the large increases in the other sections. Tlip nssocia lion was to be eoiiginiulnieil upon its efforts to make the Shew one of I lie most successful that it had ever had and with the increasing popularity of the fixture lie ventured to say that (tie Gisborne Winter Show in time would become one of the most outstanding events between Palmerston Xortli and Auckland if given the public patronage tliat it deserved. Ifo added that if was the duty of every citizen to support the Show and the association so that when its uveiuy-lir. t birthday was celebrated Gisborne would have n Show of which it well might be proud.

The deputy-Mayor then ulfered his congratulations to the committee, ol the association on the lay-out of the Show and said that although it had Itad difficulties tile best had been made of the situation. It was to , he Imped that in the future they would have a more suitable building. He emit mended Ihr public spirit of Messrs. Common. Shelton and Company in permitting the association to held its .Show in their premises, P.efore declaring the Show open, Air. Holmes drew attention to the cooking exhibits and the birds. At this stage 'Mrs. A. Itaillie was asked to step on to the di.-is and was presented with a bouquet by Mr. Holmes, on behalf of (ho committee, in appreciation of the valuable assistance given by her at this and past Shows. Mrs. Raillio suitablv replied. JUDGES' COMMENTS

Commenting on the fruit sections, the judge. All. I.veieit, said lli;H some ol me eXld'.dts were up lu the usual liigb standard, but taken on a whole the seclion was not as good as in some years.

I ne garden piuduce v.a-, very satislaelory and iCO per cent attend ot last year, boiu in the numuer ot entries and to the quality, aeeordmg to the judge. Air. C. i.. Gi'ey. On account ol the wet summer he v. as surprised at tile good quality ot the exhibits.

Tito two judges in Pie era ft s section, .Mcsdamcs it. \\ . Mack and -I. A. Maekay. were very pleased with the exit i hit's and mentioned the marquetry class as being outstandingly good. A tapes-try-worn stool, made bv a man. was very

wi ll made. They explained that judging was difficult in several of the classes on account of the varied nature of the exhibits.

The farm produce section, said the judges. Messrs. T, Hav an,l D. Hair, was an excellent one throughout. The pumpkins were well above the ordinary standard and the mangolds were equal to any that had been previously displayed in Poverty Ray. The swedes wore outstanding exhibits and the carrots wore well up to standard. “The only thing the matter with t lie Norwich champion classes is that there are not enough entries.” said the judge of cage birds and canaries. Mr. 11. Payne, Wairoa. The bird iie had placed champion was the Dost bird he had seen for many years, and tiie other birds offered very strong competition. The budgerigar classes contained a better mint her and class of birds than last year, hut in his opinion the show was too early ill the year to suit the birds. Another 11 ton11 1 or six weeks would alter their plumage and have them in better condition. He was sure that at the end of that time the birds showing up at present would lie winners. The green budgerigars were a capital Iff. bin lie considered the yellows a little too pale, explaining that t'nev should be more the colour of a daffodil. He remarked on the fine colouring of the Hines. The finches were not so good as they wanted another six weeks to give them more size. The foreign class was an exceptionally good one and Mr. Pavtie was confident that the hint lie had placed first would win anywhere. XATIOXAL DAXGIXG STARTED As usual, the national dancing section of the show attracted a large audience. It was announced that on Saturday evening- there would he tin- lap dance over Iff, tap dance under iff. skipping dance, and novice fling. In this event it was stated iffat Mr. N. S.

Soper, a stallholder in the vicinity of the dancing platform, had offered a medal for the winner. Those eligible for the medal, it was stipulated, were to he children who had been unplaced throughout the competitions. PI.XO-PONG Cl! AM PIOXSIII P
