“A Credit To The Island lzirovince”,

Provincial Exhibition Assn. Still A Adding To One Of The Most Beautifully Situated Grounds

In Canada-Interesting Re- view Of The Work.

1m Provincial Exhibition Associa- gog are this year eontinulnl their {award policy which they adapted u“; years ago of constant improve- ment to their plant.

A are beautifully situated um- mon grounds cannot be found in all Canada. The buildings aid fences 1m» bang nicely whitewashed and the grounds raked and cleaned up cf all paper and litter. The fences and horse stables have been ‘repaired. ’l‘hc Main Building which was sup- ported by cedar posts, had under- gone considerable settling, so Con- tractors MacDougall and MacAulay were called on to place permanent crmcreto pillars under it. Each span Lea-i is b: “i: up and supported and there are I4 oi these, so some idea of the amount of work can be formed. Frank Quinn, who is l-‘nown throughout the ‘Province as an ex- pert in that line, had charge of the leielling and made an excellent job oi it. The concrete work was under the direction of Foreman Joseph Mahar of MacDougall and MacAu- lay's stafl. _

The interior oi the building has been rc-modelled under the direction of Director S. A. McLeod, who, to- gether with the President, Mr. Paton, has charge of the building. All the high stands have been removed and low display tables have taken their place. Large glass cases have been constructed for the displaying of fruits and vegetables, etc. Entirely new decorations are being put up by Mr. McLeod and staff. The Maritime Electric Company are carrying out some improvements to the electrical end of the building. Altogether a lot of money has been spent on this building, which without doubt is one of the best of its kind to be seen any- where.

The race track, which was entirely resurfaced last year, is now showing the good effects and is without doubt one of the safest and fastest in all Canada.

The plumbing and sanitary fixtures whcih were installed last year by Stanley, Shaw 8r. Pearden, iave been added too. '

The main entrance to the grounds has been greatly enlarged by the purchase of the Meikle lot. Twelve llcc-se stables have been cut of! anu a new entrance fence erected, so that automobiles can enter the grounds through four different gates. This

park their cars and enter the grounds by‘ the ticket stands connected with the parking grounds.

The performers‘ stand in front of the Grandstand has been enlarged to accommodate the animal troupes which are one oi the three specialty acts tobe used this year.

A ton of anti-dust has been pur- chased and will be distributed all over the dusty tracks and walks around the Exhibition grounds and St. Peters Road, so as to endeavor to keep down the dust and make it comfortable for the many thousand spectators who will attend.

Charlottetownilns no doubt realize what an excellent thing for Char- lottetown the Provincial Exhibition is. Its annual outlay is in the vicinity oi $35,000.00. and this money set in cir- culation together with the money spent by the thousands oi people who attend must mean a considerable benefit to every citizen The Directors hope that all citizens in factevery one in Prince Edward Island will take an interest in this Flair and will speak of it enthusiastic- ally to their friends and be sure to see it themselves.
