hibltion is the presence of the booths in the main building. These m beautifully worsted, and givo the necessary note of colour and ggiety. No pains have been spared u; make the building beautiful. Th», efforts of Mr. Arthur Orford m4 Mr. Fred Hynes produced a most effective scheme of decor- ation in which multicoloured ban- hers and Chinese lanterns have their part.

refreshment booths are doing a thriving business, providing relief during the hot weather.

Library Demonstration

The Carnegie demonstration of the Prince Edward Island Lib- raries, has a fine collection of books, shown in the usual booth. special features oi interest in this booth are the illuminated map of Prince Edward Island showing the branches of the Carnegie Library, and the Woman's Institute Box for sending books places where there is no library.

Moore ll McLeod Ltd.

The booth exhibiting Moore ds uclieodk display of men's wear is located in the usual area occupied by this firm, to the left centre op- posite the main entrance. Skill and taste are shown in the arrangement of the high quality garments to the

best poslble advantage. The back- year

ground, which consists of panels from Moore d: McLean's wall paper samples. adds the touch of colour and variety necessary.

0f unusual interest is the demon- stration of the steps in the manu-

. facture of Biltmore hats. First are

shown the rabbit skins. The pelt- ing and shrinking of the fabrics are also indicated. and the process is followed down t0 the blocking of the individual hat. A full descrip- iiOn of the trimmings used is also given.

Natty coats and overcoats of the latest styles are exhibited to splen- riid advantage, Even the novice may

by a casual examination, detect the I?"

excellence of the fabrics represen- ted. The patterns in men's shirts are unique and unusually attractive. Most are heavy and» show a pre- dominance of colour. The neck- wear and scarfs are also in bold colourings.

Onashowcaseinthecentreof the booth with a fine array of shirts is shown a novel display of socks. The colours and patterns are not- able. The "pirate stripes" immedi- ately catch. the eye. while the "bro- ques" though more sober are not less dressy.

Two types of druslng gowns, of flannel and silk. the latter of the crease-resisting type, are also on exhibit. zipper coat sweaters com- pleie the wardrobe shown. The fur- niture in the booth was provided by R. T. Holman Ltd.

The whole selection of garments rontains nothing tawdry or_ flashy.

STRESSES VALUE

t 1'! years. Ancient institutions were being challenged and destroy- ed before mu eyes. Two oi the mightiest world forces in conflict today are Communism and Pas- cism. Between them there is a war to the death. In Russia the doom of the Fascist is swift and sure. It is exile to Siberia or death. In Germany the Communist is con- dcrnned to the internment camp. Both these destructive forces are opposed to ~» democracy which they claim is inefficient. Both of them have destroyed every vesilfl of parliamentary government wher- ever they have operated.

m Italy grussouni speaks of Fel- cism “riding over the rotting corpse of liberty." In Germany freedom is dead. Four hundred newspapers have been put out of business by the Nani regime.

Dr. Donnell told of his visit to Berlin at the time oi the blood purge by Adolph Hitler, whom he saw andwhose address he listened to. I-Ie found a paralyzing fear W" the country. One university pro- fessor. who expressed the opinion that l-llter'a funeral oration at the grave of Hlndenburg was a 901M681 speech was sentenced to nine months in prison for that offence.

The speaker related many strik- ing ' ‘ of the dread that brooarover the hearts of the people. Oommunism, too, has blotted out every vestlge oi freedom. In Russia. one rinda that every department of life is under reglmentation.

Dr. Bonncll. who spent between three and four weeks in Russia last summer, described the censorship of the newspapers and of all public speeches and of the free exercise of religion. Every unfavorable news item about strikes, riots or lynchcs in other parts of the world is fea- tured in the Russian ‘Pffll- N0 0M dares express his economic or po- litical convictions if they l" 11¢’- in harmony with those o: the So- viet rulers.

In conclusion. the speaker refer- red to the distressing problem of unemployment in Canada and called for a dedication not only of our enthusiasm but for our intel- ligence to the task of making it possible to find work for the multi- tude of youth in this nation who are pouring forth from our schools and colleges into a society that seems to have no place for them, and he spoke feelingly also of the pathetic spectacle of so many men beyond middle age who are seek- ing in valn for work. '

‘Ihere is a way out for Canada, he believed but Canadians will not put their necks under the yoke eith- er of Communism or Fascism. with their denial of liberty, their in- trigue, their civil wars, their mass murders, their secret assassinations; but by using the democratic in- stitutions which we possess today we must seek to build up on the northern half of the American continent a. nation established in freedom. founded on the principles of Justice and righteousness. united ln one vast, brotherhood from the thundering Atlantic in the east to where the Pacific steals up to the green isles of the west. so shall we have achieved the Dominion of our dreams, the greater Canada that is yet to be.

many others who might be men- tioned; these inen were the pion- eers in the Exhibition movement in this Piovince. to whom s large measure of credit ls due on this occasion.

What inspired them in their self-

sacrificing efforts? Surely it was the realisation of tbs great value and im cf agrlcultum in the life of the community, and of the need of encouraging this basic industry by every mean; in their power. .. These men were thinkers and readers; they knew that they were on safe ground in investing of their time and energy in such an enterprise. Poets, statesmen and Philosophers of all Ital have Pill tribute to agriculture as the basis oi national prosperity. It was re- gardedinancientPomaa-sihein- dustry productive of “the bravest men, the most valiant "' . and a class of citizens least given ofal1tcevildealgns."“Ofalloo- cupations," says Cicero, “from whichgain is secured, there is none better than agriculture. nothing more productive, nothing sweeter, nothing more worthy of a free m“...

You remember how Gray in his “Elegy Written in a Country

Churchyard," pictures the busy

rural scene:

"Oft ‘did the harvest to iileir sickle e1 -

Y

Their furrow oft the stubborn glebe has broke;

How Jocund did they drive their team afield!

l-Icw bow'd the woods beneath their sturdy stroke!"

The other side of the picture is painted by Oliver Goldsmith in his poem f"l‘he Deserted Village." "Ill fares the land, to hastening

ills a prey,

Where wealth accumulates, and men decay;

Princes and lords may flourish, or may fade;

A breath can make them, breath has made: But a bold peasantry, their coun.

try's pride, When once destroyed, can never be

_ supplied."

No better plan to prevent such a catastrophe, to stimulate inter- est. to encourage ocmpetiti and build up high standards in live- stock and farm , ‘ucticn, could have been devised than that of a. Province-wide Fair, reps-wanting the best not only in agriculture but in handicraft and other home industries.

Inspired by the achievements of our predecessors in this direction; working on the foundation which they laid with such thoroughness and success in years gone by, your Association management during the past few years have undertaken to spend more money in new build- ings and plant imp. vemen‘, with the object of making this Exhibi- tion the greatest in the Maritime Provinces, and thereby improving still further the status of our ag- ricultural industry.

This year we have taken into conference the heads of the lead- ing stock breeders‘, dairy and oth- er farm organizations and handi- craft workers, and have increased our prize list and brought it thor- oughly up to date.

We have also improved our bulld- lngs for the use of cattle, built new race horse and show barns, re- painted and whitewashed the en- tire plant, renewed, rearranged and redecorated with an entirely new scheme the Main Building. and made other improvements, entail- ing an expenditure of thousands cf dollars.

Formerly it was not possible to give such afternoon programs as we are now able to provide, be- cause of the expense involved in the acts and other entertainment and the very smallrevenue derived from the night shows. But now, because of our new horse arena with its 22,000 candle power light- lng system, and new vaudeville stage with 7,000 candle power, it is possible for us to give the finest acts in be seen anywhere in‘ Am- erlca, bringing them here at the start of the season, before the opening of the fairs in other places, and financing them to s consider- able extent from the revenue de- rived from our night shows.

We are indebted to the Char- lotteiown Riding Club for the staging of horse shows in connec- tion with the evening features- The members have purchased beau- tiful horses and trained themselves and their mounts and are con- u _ enthusiastically to our night programs.

With regard to our racing pro- gram, I may say that we have al- ways had good racing in Charlotte- town. We are not promising to give better races than in the past. but we hope at least to maintain the high standard set in previous years. We have followed the policy of our predecessors in one very im- portant rnatter, namely, in carry- ing out every promise made to the horsemen, and in going “one bet- ter" if possible. The result is that Charlottetown is known far and wide as a place where one may safely send his horses, knowing full well that the races will be run off as promised. .

We have advertised our vaude- ville acts in strong terms, but wa honestly believe that such language is justified by the exceptional qual- ity of this year's entertainment. The Cimso" Sensation is without doubt one of the world's greatest thrillers. The other sets, we are

As a nightly locompaniment to the margin. the fireworks display his p a most PWul-sr feature. Inst rel-r we spent a lot of money in fireworks and were. well satis- fied with the result. Immediately after the Exhibition we according- ly ante ’ into negotiations for the coming season and the result is a Ireatly increased variety of fire- WOIU. inoludi_ some marvelously colorful effects; in fact, a display which we are told has never hith- erto been seen in the Maritime Provinces.

Cur afternoon shows will start shortly before 2 o'clock and will conclude. with as little lost time as Possible, at or near 5 o'clock, giv- lhl the spectators a chance to visit the viidwav, the scam Building, the livestock and other exhibits be- fore 80mg to tea. Our evening shows will start about 8 o'clock and will continue until about l0. They will be followed by the fireworks display. which should be through not later than 10.30.

We want every man, woman and Child in Prince Edward Island to take an interest in this Exhibition, feeling that it is his or her own show. that we are merely the trustees for them, their servants, 5° l0 Speak, appointed to carry on the work. And we hope that, when it is over they will be able to say to themselves: “We are citizens of no mean Province, because we can display to the rest of Canada, through our Provincial Exhibition. the finest products in agriculture, in handicraft. and in the various forms of clean and wholesome en- iertainment, to be found anywhere in this broad Dominion."

Lieutenant Governor DeBlola

His Honour Lit-Governor De- Blois in formally opening the Fair expressed the great pleasure it afforded him in being present at the opening of the Prince Edward Island Agricultural and Industrial Exhibition, an event which all look forward to from year to year.

His Honour extended a warm welcome to all present and ea- -pecially to the visitors from the different provinces and the great Republic to the south.

The exceptionally large atten- dance on the opening night was a. very encouraging sign the speaker felt: and judging from the number of entries of livestock, and the interesting variety of exhibits both of products of the soil and handicraft, and with the fine horse races, vaudeville and horse show the fair is sure to be a success from every standpoint.

The success of the exhibition is but further conclusive proof. His Honour said, of what a patriotic and loyal people can accomplish when under the capable leader- ship of such a man as the presi- dent of the Exhibition Association. Lt.-Co1. D. A. MacKinnon. The speaker also paid tribute to the Honorary President, Mr. James Paton, who had done so much for the exhibition.

His faith in the value of the show increases with the passing of the years, Governor DeBlois said. It provides not only a chan- nel for the exchange of money in prizes and other ways, but also creates competition. Its greatest worth, however, is in its edu- cational value and in the in- creased interest it stimulates in the great industry of agriculture which the speaker likened to the roots of a tree.
