ITS PRACTICAL RESULTS
Manager Gray's VaIedictory on the Home
Products Exhibition
Decided Success-Certain Disadvantages
That Hsy Be Easily Overcome
In the Future

Mr.. c. D. Gray, manager of the late
Home Products exhibition, left last
evening for San Francisco, where he
goes at the request of the State Develop
ment company.
Before leaving he was asked by re-
porter what he thought of the result Of
the exhibition here, and Mr.. Gray said:
THE Home Products exhibition has
proved a decided success in every way.
1 understand that a handsome surplus
will be left in the treasury, and as far as
the practical results are concerned they
are being felt now. Several of the ex-
hibitors, and even those who did not
exhibit, have told me that the demand
for home products has greatly increased,
and many of the articles that have mere
tofore been excluded from the table
have since found their way into the
homes. We were laboring under the
great disadvantage Of not having suffi-
GENTLY large building to accommodate
more exhibits, but | hope that this will
be rectified in the future by the erection
of a structure of sufficient dimensions
for public gatherings, eXpositions, etc.
While the late exhibition was only an
experiment l believe that this city
ought to have an exhibition of this char
acter on a broader scale each year
want to thank the executive committee
and the public generally for their kind
treatment and many c0urtesies that |
have received from their hands, and l
leave here with the best wishes for the
future welfar of this community. 1 may
be able to visit your city later on"
