I'CORD EXHIBITION BIC 3AIRY SECTION .LIST OF AWARDS

previous exhibitions for gaßanri attmctivenesa and all-round exceltece q! the made, the Taramld Winter Show, which opened in the Coronation Hall at New Plymouth yesterday, and which makes the twelfth annual event of its kind, goes on record nfi. “the best yet’’ in the history of the society. The dairy section was a very large one, and all the competitive classes drew record entries. There was a fine display of root crops and the heme industries presented an attractive arriv, while the poultry show drew particularly large entries, necessitating the procuring of many additional pens.. The visitors to the show yesterday found the spacious hall fully taxed with the demands of the show, and this incidentally was a reminder of the necessity for the provision of more accommodation. The exhibits made by tradespeople were particularly well carried out, and there was a variety of stal«s with a number of well designed exhibit*;. These are a special feature of this year’s show and no doubt added to its attractiveness. A number of interesting exhibits -were provided by the schools section, and the skill of pupils in various arts w*»s work. reflected in the high standard of the In regard to catering the society is fortunate in -having a very capable ladies’ committee at the head of this department. The large amount of work involved was ably <*arried out by rhe ladies, who have accepted this responsibility for some time past, and incidentally have been instrumental in augmenting the funds of the society by their voluntary efforts. Judging was carried out yesterday and was a formidable task for those concerned. The management of the show wna carried out under the direction of the president of the society (Air. W. B. Grant) and the secretary (Mr. W. POkey), who admirably filled their respective roles. With the assistance of •the sub-committees and stewards, arrangements proceeded smoothly. There was a good attendance of the public throughout yesterday, and receipts in-" di eate that the number of visitors was well ahead of that recorded on the opcn•ing day of last year. Last night thflre teas Jgain a large attendance, and the Citizens* l|pad rendered an enjoyable programme of music during the- evening. OPENING CEREMONY. The show was officially opened by the Minister of Agriculture (the Hon. W. Nos worthy) in. the afternoon. Other ■visitors included the Mayor (Mr. F. E Wilson) and Mrs. Wilson, and Mr. S. G. Sm : *h. M.P.. and Mrs. Smith. “Those of you who have looked round must harp felt impressed that this is the be«t show we have ever had,” said the president of the society (Mr. W. B. Grant i in the course of some introductory remarks. He remarked that the entries showed a big increase. All recognised that the buliidngs were far too wiimll, and they had tried to get the townspeople to r -sist in the matter. On this occasion it was noticeable that new firms were coming irt; they were alive to the interests of the town, and had come forward to assist, though really the hall should be filled by local people alone. A cordial reception was given Mr. Nosworthy, who preceded his address by expressing pleasure at the opportunity of •opening the society’s twelfth show. He •congratulated the president and commit•ttee on the very successful exhibition they had made on this occasion. He realised that the entries were far in exof what they were last vear, and fthte was accounted for by the fact that Jthe wur having been left behind and the .soldiers repatriated there was now labor fhvnd enterprise to make a greater showting than could have been expected a ifew years ago. Mr. Nosworthy projeeeded to remark on the problems conffronting New Zealand at the present (time, and urged the people to meet all with the Anglo-Saxon spirit, gwhich had always won out. Mr. S. G. Smith, M.P., thanked Mr. Vaeworthy for acceding to the request to open the show. Mr. -Smith said the was proud of the men and women who were responsible for the organising the show on behalf of the primary industries, and he hoped that at the conclusion the committee would be uhle say that the function was jpte.lMMt successful they had ever had.
