The fire quickly spread to the dwelling. from which only a small quantity of furnishings was saved. The hehnery and machine shed were likewise burned to the ground. The flames were fanned by a light broom-and in the parched wood of the building burned like tinder.

Though all heat records were broken yesterday. officials, exhib- itors and visitcra set unconcerned- ly about the task of making the i935 fair the biggest in history- The usual large first night crowds attended the opening proceedings in the Paton Pavilion. The Ex- hibition Grounds were the scene of feverish activity ‘yesterday, as exhibitors brought in the prov- incs's finest products, as merch- andise was rushed in for the booths. and as workmen ‘ tened to erect the midway equipment on the concessions, By evening all was ready, and the great five day exhibition began in full swing with its riot of light and sound, and exhilarating excitement.

Swept by cooling breclol from harbour and river, the grounds. and more particularly the an! included in the driving pa.rk and grahd stands were as cool as any place to be found on the Island. For this reason, officials predict new attendance records for each day of the fair.
